CBD infused tea to help me clean

Image
Needed my cbd infused tea for this job. This is just tea with cbd dropped in. This thanksgiving break I took time to do my monthly deep cleaning. With kids and dog things get dirty fast. I'm not a clean freak although I do clean daily. I just don't move the couches and clean under them everyday. I do this about once a month or so. As I suspected things were messy with wrappers, dog toys, and some black dust from the couch. Not sure how or why the couch has black dust, but it does. It's a brown couch which makes this more confusing. The dogs of course were helping me by going through the mess and barking at the shampooer. My younger one and my nephew played video games during this. This meant they had to play musical couches. All and all shampooing the living room and dining room took about 3 hours. After that I wasn't doing anything else. CBD helped me just zone in and power through without complaining in my head about how there should not be this k

Facebook and Instagram marketing

Image
First thing you should know is you can not use Facebook or Instagram ads for your CBD business. You will be cut off of ads for trying this. Lessons learned the hard way.  There are other ways you can use these sites though.  Facebook   I have not found a good video on marketing on facebook that doesn't involve ads. So here is what I am doing. Here is a training call on marketing on facebook.   To start your own CBD business go here. Get more friends. You can have 5000 friends so this should be the end goal. Be careful a lot of people use Facebook as a hook up site and will message you very gross things. Others will get mad. Block the nasty people and let the rude ones unfriend you. That's just more room on your friends list for people that actually might buy CBD or want to sell.  Remove all offensive or drama material. No one is going to take your business seriously if it's full of this stuff. Unless it is directly related to how CBD is helping you o

Comparison of CTFO and Tasty Hemp oil

Image
Fun fact Tasty is the first CBD oil we used. I thought until today they went out of business because we couldn't it anywhere. After that we found a lot of oils that didn't work then found CTFO. Link in bio get CTFO CBD oil awakenedvegan.myctfo.com When buying CBD you should have lab results available to you. If not run!!! There are so many fake products out there make sure you are getting what you pay for. P.S. get the chemical and heavy metal reports too. Hemp is used to suck up heavy metals from soil then is being made into CBD... This site I found Tasty on didn't have the other repirts or I couldn't make a comparison there. CTFO does. Basic math to find total CBD per bottle is: CBD per 1ml + CBDA per 1 ml Whatever that equals × ml per bottle Whatever that equals × 0.877 Whatever that equals gives you the total CBD per bottle.

There I was rocking out to "pour some sugar on me" or whatever the songs name is and my phone starts ringing off the hook. I'm in traffic headed to work and by law can't answer it. At a red light, I look to see who it was and it's school. They call again. Still at the light I answer and put it on speaker. Right now making sure my kids are alive is more important than a ticket.  The school is freaking out I need to come get my oldest now. I tell them I'm about 20 mins away and need to pull over to call my boss. So I pull over and my sister text she got the call too and is on her way to get him. Oh thank god!!! I text the behavior lady and tell her my sister is coming.  I get back on the road. The school calls again. They need me to get him now!!! I tell them my sister is on her way. By the way they are freaking out I'm thinking he went psycho or something. All I know at this point is he wrote a dirty word on a wall in mud and is trying to leave. I

We will figure it out baby

Last night my oldest had another anxiety attack. He has been doing pretty good this week. Two things set him off last night.  First he messaged his dad and his dad never messaged him back. This is the second day he tried to talk to him. This is nothing new for his dad. It's been like this forever. My oldest thought "hey since I'm going there over Thanksgiving break maybe he will talk to me." Broke his heart, of course.😢 Next I told my kiddos that their brother would be coming for Christmas. This is my son from another mother. Love him like my own💖. Anyway my oldest doesn't get along with him at all. They are the same age and this has been a battle since the beginning.  So my oldest goes into full anxiety attack. Starting to amp up behaviors. Picking on the dog and his brother. I made the mistake of going to the bathroom to get ready for bed and my younger one catches a pen to the face. By the time I come out my husband has my older one in his bedro

OCD and depression sinking in

Image
Staying happy these days is pretty hard to do. I hate the house we live in with a passion. I took CBD and I'm feeling better. The sort of OCD and the depression has lessened. It sucks when both of these kick in at the same time. On one hand I'm freaking out about this house being a total mess and nothing is done after 3 years!! On the other hand I can't make myself do anything to make this place a little better to live in. So I sit here crying while both sides freak out.  Background story My family bought this house with my sister and her family. Which is good, I don't mind being in the same house in fact we have been living together for almost all our lives. We get along for the most part and help each other out.  Our plan was to move into this split level house and make the downstairs into a separate house itself. The downstairs already had a bathroom, living room, 1 bedroom, and a 2 car garage. We wanted to add some bedrooms to the garage and change the

Lady Problems

Image
That time of the month for most ladies is anything, but fun. For me it's always been fine. I get very mild symptoms a week before that time. The week of I pop in the cup and only deal with it twice a day for about 5 days. Easy breeze! Until this week.... The cramps were sometimes close to child birth. Like right before it feels like someone gave your baby knives to cut its way out. Pure hell the week before and during. Thankfully it was only 3 days of hell. How did I deal with this craziness and live? I took CBD full spectrum 300 twice a day. It took about 20 minutes to kick in, but when it did I was feeling better almost tip top. When it wore off about 10 hours later the pain would flood in. Click Here

Inflammation Relief full spectrum 300

Image
Cheryl Barnes on CBD Oil Drops - 300mg Inflammation Relief Location: USA Yes! Thus was my reaction to my results after taking my CBD Oil Drops after coming home from my 4th day in a row at my Sales Advisor Job at Costco - standing 8 hours each day on those concrete floors! I had insane inflammation in both of my knees and figured I’d be unable to be very productive for the next couple of days. Happy to report... Wrong! Within about 1/2 hour my knees were feeling much better and inflammation had subsided. I was ever able to chase after 4 of my grand babies yesterday - all under the age of 3!!!! Why WOULDN’T anyone want to try this amazing oil? I’ve saved $$$ on other meds by using this one bottle for several ailments! On my way to Fabulous 57❤️🙏 Click here

CBD Coffee

Image
As promised I started adding CBD to drinks. Morning coffee 1/2 dropper please. Drank it while taking the kids to school. It was a win and now my morning routine. 😀 Mondays are hard for me. I work 16 hours on Sat and Sun plus 8 hours on Fri. This week I did 10 hours on Fri.... I get a full work week in 3 days. I love it even though it's hard. After drinking this, showering, yoga, and meditation I was 100%. Normally my legs and feet hurt really bad. I'm a caregiver for the elderly in a 3 story building. Lots of stairs, lifting people, and running around. I am normally really sleepy because I get around 5 to 6 hours of sleep Friday and Saturday nights. Today I woke up hurting and draging, but now I'm in tip top shape. I started this schedule because I needed to be free for my oldest when the school needed me to come get him. They would send him home a lot because of freak outs. I also have to be free to help calm him down or talk on the phone. Now that I've been

Researching CBD and cooking

Image
Today I'm on a mission to research cooking with CBD. Making a magical blend of mom life, vegan life, and CBD. Why because this is me in a nutshell. I am vagen my family is part vegan. I'm a mom and wife and we all take CBD. So why not combined it all. Things I have learned so far: #1 most people cooking with CBD are not using CBD products they are using hemp oil made from the hemp seed. We will change this. #2 CBD will start to evaporate after being heated above 320 to 356 degrees. We will stick to using in foods after its cooled a bit or not cooked. Raw foods, drinks and frosting are main areas I will focus first. #3 light and air exposure can greatly effect the potency of the oil. It is best to consume the oil right away. This means you need to eat your magical goods right away. Looks like I have to eat all the frosting darn😏 #4 cbd can be placed in the fridge, but shouldn't be place in the freezer. Now there are mixed reviews about cbd in the freezer so to

His 4 stages of a freak out

Image
The last few days we have made great progress. My oldest has been taking CBD twice daily since Sunday. Behaviors are for the most part going down. My oldest is also ate yesterday's lunch he brought. We are headed in the right direction. Last night he had an anxiety attack because I had a meeting at work today and he would have to ride the bus home. I should have got home about the time he did if not someone would be here. But this was not helping him. He lost it and started getting angry and destructive. When this happens we have to go through his stages at his pace. This can take a half hour or hours. First stage: anger and destruction. This is either dealt with by alone time or restraining him. This depends on the level of destruction happening and if he is safe to himself and others. Second stage: annoying all around. This is done by name calling, noises, putting them down, and whatever else will make people mad. If this stage is not handled properly you can move back

The text you don't want

Image
I'm at work on my first 16 hour shift of the weekend. I get a text from my sister. She says my boys got into a fight. My husband was at the store. Thankfully we all live together so they were not alone. Anyway fighting between my boys is very normal, although it doesn't get physical a lot of the time. This time, however, my oldest went to far and left marks on my younger ones neck. Anger, harming others, and destruction is nothing new to us. Once upon a time my older one would try to attack any kid around over the age of 2 during a freak out. This was before we found out about his food allergies and CBD. I was positive he was autistic. He was tested after the diet changes and CBD. Which I researched helped autistic kids. The test came back he was not autistic. I start to show him what emotions were and how I deal with them. Every emotion he had was shown as anger. He would get excited and happy then snap.  Loud noises to many people and he would snap. If people messed wi

Small victory for mom

Yesterday after getting the kids to school I called the school to discuss them giving my kid with food allergies chart in his file school lunch. I don't have him signed up for it, he brings his own lunch, and they want to charge me $2 something. Needless to say I was beyond upset. I took my CBD and made the call. I had to leave a message.  I braced myself for more crazy as the phone rang and it was the kid's school. This week has been nuts with Tuesday being the only good day my son had. "WTF now" I said right before answering.  It was a lady about the school lunches. She tells me we can put a block on him getting the school lunches. I just have to write a note to the school board. Thank you. Now we can maybe get these behaviors under control.  Now maybe we can get these behaviors under control!

CBD please give me strength

This last week with my oldest has tested me to my limits. A little background: my oldest is 11 with anxiety, depression, and PTSD. This presents as anger. If this wasn't hard enough I have off and on depression and anxiety.  So my oldest has been refusing his CBD the last few weeks because he wants to go against what I say. P.S. once upon a time he was diagnosed with ODD. The diagnosis was only taken away because he was doing good on the CBD. It takes a lot of work for him to take the CBD these days. Sometimes he spits it out and some days he doesn't have it at all.  He has also decided he will be eating foods he is allergic to. This being milk, eggs, wheat, and peanuts. Halloween started this carp. For Halloween I normally get him candies he can have so after trick or treating he can trade. These food allergies are not life threatening, but do cause a lot of behaviors and the ODD behavior. Yay not! He didn't trade candies out and said he was going to give them t

7 CBD FAQ
