Begin Again

I am not a good housekeeper, never have been, I don't have the 'perfect' company ready house all the time.  Whoops....that is labeling myself, which is something my counselor told me not to do.  Instead of living in the past, I have decided to begin again so to speak, and have been doing quite well with keeping up with dishes/laundry etc since moving into our new house.  I have decided that I am going to do better at keeping the house clean, and keep up with the FLYLady Zones and techniques.  Yes we are still very much in boxes, but we are working on that.

My husband has decided he wants to get into trains again, so he has bought himself some parts.  This is a good thing as that means we will get our 'office/craft/sewing/train' room cleaned out soon so he has somewhere to build his train set.  He is so excited about it, as am I.  I love seeing the glimmer of excitement and happiness in his eyes.  He loves trains.  He had quite the setup going before we got married, but there just wasn't room for it when I moved in with him after we got married, so he took it down.  I'm excited to see how it progresses and the finished project (although he says it will never be finished).

As far as how I am doing, I still feel depressed a little, have talked with psych and I am taking the wellbutrin twice a day, we will explore other options at my appointment in a few weeks.  I am getting things done which is good so that's something as I pull out of this depression.  Still have a lot to do but I am not looking at it as a whole, instead am looking at it into pieces which makes it so much less overwhelming.

Saturday 9: Good Morning, Heartache

Trying another new thing called Saturday 9, it can be found here:  http://samanthasaturday9.blogspot.com 1) Do you come up with your brightest ideas early in the morning or late at night?   I would say that I am most creative later in the evenings 2) Are you more likely to feel romantic at night or in the morning?  Depends on the day :-), but usually at night 3) Do you shower in the morning, after work or before bed?   I shower in the mornings, it helps wake me up 4) Billie Holiday was just 44 when she died. Is there an artist whose early demise surprised and saddened you?   Not an artist but Heath Ledger's death really shocked me and took me by surprise.  He is one of my all time favorite actors. 5) Billie was known as "Lady Day." Do you have a cool nickname? (If not, feel free to give yourself one right now.)   No cool nicknames, as a kid I was "Woodie or Fruitcake".....don't ask LOL 6) When was the last time you had the blues?   ...

Who Are you?

Sunday stealing  Who Are you? Part 7 – It is Over!  Part 7: Self Image 84. Describe the routine of a normal day for you:   I wake up at 6:00am, take a shower, get ready for the day, then I go downstairs and feed the critters, and make breakfast for hubby and I.  We usually leave the house by about 7:30ish and I drop my husband off at work.  Then I work (I'm a Pet Groomer) until about 3:30 or 4:00ish then I leave for home and go get my hubby from work.  Then I come home and make dinner, feed the critters, work on cleaning the house a little and we usually head to bed about 8:30ish or 9:00. 85. What is your greatest strength as a person?   I am a very compassionate and have a big heart 86. What is your greatest weakness?   Interrupting people when they are talking 87. Are you going to run for President in 2016?   Nope, I don't care about politics all that much 88. Are you generally self-contained? No, I do like to talk, except t...

🌿 CBD and Hormones: What Every Woman Should Know

  Posted in The Wellness Den | June 14, 2025 Let’s be real: being a woman comes with a lot of hormonal ups and downs. Mood swings. Fatigue. Bloating. Brain fog. Anxiety. Sleep issues. And don’t even get me started on the perimenopause rollercoaster. Whether you’re in your 20s or late 40s (like me!), hormones influence everything —your energy, mood, digestion, skin, cycle, and emotional balance. But here’s something most women don’t hear enough: CBD can help. Not as a magic pill or miracle cure—but as a powerful tool that supports your body’s natural rhythms and helps bring balance when everything feels off. 💛 What Happens When Hormones Are Out of Whack? When estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, or thyroid hormones get thrown off, you may feel: Anxious or irritable Wired but tired Struggling with sleep or concentration Sluggish digestion or metabolism Cravings, mood dips, and PMS from another planet Sound familiar? Now enter: your Endocannabino...
