Long overdue update

Zoey I haven't posted recently.   Things have been busy and I am now 13 weeks 6 days pregnant...... Due July 5th.   To say we are excited is an understatement.   We are over the moon with excitement.  This is our first child.   I am a bit nervous as child birth literally scares the crap out of me.   But all will be fine I am sure.   I have had quite the bouts with morning sickness but mostly nauseated.   I have yet thrown up.... Knocking on serious wood here.  I think since the last time I wrote list a key.   My boy Munchie.   He had a bad heart and severe arthritis in most of not all of his joints.   We  decided it was more humane to end his suffering.   We added a new kitten named Smokes.   He is a kitten that I bottle raised from just a few days old.   He is the first foster I have had that Raven approves of.   Usually she hisses at them and tries to attack them.   But with Smokes she is different.   He is black with grey undercoat and lots of single white hairs poking out.  He did in wonderfully with our fur family.
As for my fitness.  I have already gained too much weight with the pregnancy as early on I was having to eat constantly to help quell the nausea.   If course I wasn't craving anything healthy just saltines and Ramen noodles.   Sometimes even after something sounded good for dinner I would get nauseated while making it.   Which totally sucks.   But I am in my second trimester now and things are definitely improving so I have recommited to eating healthier and making sure I put my whole sorry into exercising

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...
