Silver Linings

Last night I went to see a movie with my sister, Silver Linings Playbook http://silverliningsplaybookmovie.com/   It was a great movie, it is about a Bipolar guy and how he meets a messed up girl and they change each other.  I laughed a lot during this movie.  I liked the fact that they made it 'real' like showed scenes of how a bipolar person can act a little crazy.  It was a great film, I give it 2 thumbs up.  Made me really think about finding the silver linings in things.  We also went out to eat before the movie at Red Lobster, I have never eaten there before, and I was impressed.  It was such good food, and the service was great.

Today we had freezing rain, which doesn't happen very often here.  The roads were/are treacherous, it took my hubby over 2 hours to get to work (normally about 30-35 minutes) and he slid off and hit a curb and bent a rim (not good).  I'm grateful that he made it there safely though.  There were several nasty nasty accidents on the road this morning.

Just met with my psychiatrist.  She really is just blah about my treatment.  I seem to be doing okay, actually doing pretty well, but she wants to mess with my meds.  Why fix something that doesn't need fixed?  She also is only in on Thursdays and Fridays.  That makes it hard when you have a job.   SO really really wanting to find another psychiatrist. Guess I just need to get off my duff and do it.  I've been talking about it for months.

Today I am grateful for:
1-  My Car that it was able to get me to and from work safely
2-  My slipper socks, they are so nice and warm and cozy
3-  My electric blanket, which keeps me warm on cold winter nights.

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.

🌿 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...
