Its been a long time......

So........Its been such a long time since I've been here that I'm sure you have forgotten me. I've been in quite the slump for the last couple of years and all I can say is....... Menopause.
It has hit me hard and I have really been struggling with this life change this hole past year.
I want to come back but I'm just not sure how to get there.
I was in such denial of it that I had no idea of how much it has affected me.Please bare with me as I muddle through the fog and get motivated again to create.

been there...doin it....it will come to pass...there is help...a natropathic dr. can proscribe bio-identical hormons...good kind...they have made menopause doable for me...actaully enjoyable 99% of the time...not hard on the body...B6 complex too...some kind of regular movement...sugar, caffine and refined foods entaganize it horribly...blessings my dear...light...luv...play well...shelley

I've missed you and never forgot about you! I just discovered you on Pinterest, hope you will post more jewelry photos sometime. Sorry to hear you're having a rough time with the hormones. Follow the advice from other comments. But just FYI, I gave up coffee for a year and didn't feel any different, but maybe it was a good rest for my body. Come back soon!

Ugh! Hormones are such a pain... I've been going through somewhat the same. with a dose of home construction thrown in. People keep telling me we'll get through it... so let's keep positive! It is really disconcerting being so tired and having it be so hard to create!

I'm an artist who stumbled on your page. The necklace posted on sept 21, 2011 just rocked my world. I am not usually moved by jewelry, maybe I don't look at enough. But wanted you to know it was a moving experience for me. I'd wear that art. Best of luck and keep creating.

I use progesterone cream as suggested by Dr. Hill...several brands are good and available at the health food store. I squirt out the foam in the size that comes out of the dispenser and it is a lifesaver. I did not do HRT but I highly recommend the topical for brain fog, motivation and to alleviate headaches and hot flashes. Sincerely, Susan Jones
