How Far I have come

I sure have come a long way in the past year.  I am very grateful to my hubby who is my support.  He keeps me on the right path and gives me something to live for.  I love him with every beat of my heart. 

So I had a visit with my psychiatrist.  We are weaning me off Geodon (waaaaaaaaaaa).  And increasing my seroquel.  Not sure how I feel about that as I love what Geodon has done for my appetite.  Not sure I want the Seroquel weight gain, I have done so well (lost 45#) since I started the Geodon.  We will see how I do on just the seroquel, if I start gaining massive weight I will make her take me off of it. 

I am proud to say that my kitchen is still clean (over a month), there have been 1 or 2 days where I haven't done the dishes every day but for the most part my counters have been clean, stove has been cleaned off.  Now I just need to transfer some of that cleaning to my fridge.  Hubby and I attacked the pantry this past weekend.  It was such a mess, now it is clean and organized.  We kept buying tomato paste because we thought we were out of it.....big surprise we have a ton of it now, as we just couldn't see it in the pantry.  Now everything has a place and I love it.  I kept opening it up over the weekend just to stare at it and to see how awesome it looked.  Yah, I know I'm a weirdo.

On the job front things are very bleak at the moment.  I hate my job, literally. I can't get hired anywhere I apply, trying not to feel like a failure, but it's hard at the moment especially since I have so much experience as a Veterinary Receptionist.  I really wish my dad's clinic was still opened.  It was my heart and soul for so long.  He still works just out of his home.

    I hope you are still doing well. My kitchen is a royal mess right now so I am envious of this post. ;-)

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...
