Mountains know the secrets

Sometimes this path is really hard.  Just like anything worth while it is going to be hard and it's going to take time to get things back on track and running smoothly again.  My hubby is being really great about my latest mess.  He is as usual amazing.  I have truly been blessed by a saint of a man. I am working on becoming someone who is worthy of him.  Every day I am working towards that.  I hope that one day I can become the woman he deserves.

So our kitten Raven is getting spayed today, which means she has to fast this morning, so no food.  She is a food hound and LIVES for food so it's truly hard for her.  She usually eats her own food then runs to everyone elses dishes and finishes off what they don't eat.  Well I had to pick up everyone else's dishes this morning.  Raven is less than amused.  It made me think that I am hungry for knowledge on how to better control my anger and what to do for my bipolar.  I am literally trying to soak up everything and anything that I can just trying to learn more about how to better handle them both and better control them.   Losing control like I did this past weekend really scared me, I don't know what came over me and that scares me. 

Well our kitten came through her surgery just fine, I was a bit nervous, my father is a Veterinarian although he is semi retired.  Any ways I have never had any other vet spay or neuter any of my animals other than the ones I have gotten through rescues.  Since we adopted Raven through my work part of her adoption fee is having her spayed at the clinic I work at.  She came through with flying colors, and is acting like nothing happened tonight she is bouncing off the walls running, jumping, playing etc.  She is 16 weeks old.  She is growing up way too fast, she was 4# 12 oz today.

As for my headaches today, I accidentally remembered a trick my hubby told me to try.  I did our grocery shopping on my way home from work and got a fountain drink at Sam's Club, I guzzled it down and then crunched on the ice, even though the lights which usually trigger my headaches were blaring in my eyes, the headache remained mild.  I was amazed.  Will have to try it again to see if it was a fluke or if maybe crunching on ice helps the headaches.  Mood wise I am feeling a lot better today.  I am not down in the dumps and am feeling more hopeful about life in general.  Well going to wrap it up for the night, will post more tomorrow.

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...
