Bless you sweet lady. We have a saying here in the southern part of the US. "This to shall pass" and "what doesn't kill us makes us stronger". I went threw what you are experiencing 10 years ago and before you know it I was over it. You are not alone and I will continue to pray.
I just started watching your videos and enjoyed them very much. The Christmas and Easter that I saw were lovely. You are so sweet. And your home is beautiful. Hope you feel better soon. Ann Honsel. Pa, USA
I totally relate. The last two years kicked off major health issues I'm still dealing with, including fierce hot flashes from medical treatments. I've felt overwhelmed too. I got Covid in January of this year as the cherry on top. So I hear you! I hope you get better as time goes on. The only thing you can do is take it one day at the time.
@@GrandmaGlitter Oh, I just saw that you lost a fur baby. I'm so sorry. I lost my beloved cat who used to follow me everywhere last November. Another thing in common.
I know exactly what you are saying. I had Covid end of 2021. It was debilitating. I had no energy for months. The shutdown affected my mental health. Things I loved to do were no longer appealing to me. I too am going through menopause. I have been for years. Sometimes it feels like it is gone and then it comes back with a vengeance and I am so tired and don’t care about doing anything. God and my animals get me through. Prayers ascending for you. Take care.
Oh Nina! I can totally relate! I’ve been struggling with menopause too- it’s exhausting to feel like you are feeling. Praying you will begin to feel better soon! ❤
Prayers for healing and less pain from me in Chesapeake Beach Maryland in the USA. So sorry you are going through this challenging health crisis. Bless you and take care of yourself and don’t worry about your viewers. We will be here when you are ready. God bless. 💕🙏🇺🇸🦀💐🍉
Oh! Nina, I wondered what happened to you. SO glad you told us what is happening with your life. Yes, (memo) can affect people differently and then mix it with the virus, it’s too much for anyone. Our family have had this virus, flu or ?, so many times. Just that to deal with, then how our whole world seems to be turned upside down - it’s a wonder our minds just kind of shut down. I will be praying for you, Nina, that you will get better. In the US, it seems like things are eating better. 💕👍🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸🙂
I know you feel we come to feel good to this channel. But we really come for you, Your heart, your spirit , and your kindness. I am so sorry you have heath issues, they seem more than menopause. I have heard Covid affects your mental state sometimes. Also yes, the world has gotten so dangerous and sad . Its everywhere, and hard to accept that our way of life is changing. Just keep the faith, stay strong and continue to be the same kind,loving,gentle soul you are, and know that the sun will shine on you again.
Nina, thank you for this video. I had assumed that you were very busy spring chores at both of your properties. I wish had been true. Brighter days are ahead, we are all going to survive and get back to normalcy. I refuse to accept this post-covid “new normal”. I’ll be looking forward to your next video.... when you are up to producing it. Hugs!
Hi Nina I am so happy to see your lovely smile. I have checked in periodically and was wondering how you were doing. I'm sorry that so many bad things have been happening to you.. sometimes when it rains it pours.. another expression . I feel that we are kindred spirits in many ways. Hot flashes in the summer are not fun. I too have severe arthritis and even though I'm only 63 this August I sometimes feel like I'm 90. I had two surgeries due to deterioration of my joints. Nursing for 40 yrs took a toll on my health from heavy lifting and many hours on my feet. I retired in 2016 and now enjoy gardening, painting, jewelry making etc. I like your idea of more frequent videos. It's nice to see another part of the world. I feel like I'm on a virtual visit in Norway... stopping in for a chat and tea with my friend Nina. You're right about the post covid depression. Many of us feel this way. It is important that you know you have many people who care about how you feel. We will get through this with the support and understanding of others. Stay strong friend. Virtual hug coming 🤗 your way. Hoping for a better week for you. 🌈 🌞 Kelly
So good to see you Nina...I have been wondering about you . I remember going through what you are experiencing now...it was aweful ! The hot flashes, mood swings,all of it...but the thing to remember is that this will pass .Just keep putting one foot in front of the other ! I will be praying for you and take care of yourself !
Dear Nina, please be gentle on yourself. You so need to do only that which really calls you. I am sorry you have been feeling so poorly. And I am very sorry about your horse, too. I am just getting over Covid myself. Today I just tested negative. I figured that if my Grandma could survive the Spanish Flu in 1918, then I could manage to get through Covid. I will keep you in prayer. Love, Joanne
Love you, friend! I’m so sorry you haven’t been well. I was just thinking about you the other day. It’s so nice to see you, you’ve been missed. 🙏🏻 Praying for you, sweetie. Xoxo ❤
Good to see you again. I am sorry to hear you going through this. You will get better and will be here waiting for you. I remember a few years back I got a terrible hot flash in the grocery store and water was running down my face like a faucet was turned on. I had mood swings and got agitated very easily. I wish you to feel better very soon. Arthritis has been bad for me in this hot weather. Aching from one end to the other. I sympathize with you so much. You will feel better. I am sending prayers your way.
Hi Nina, So many of the you tubers I watch get burned out. Take the time you need to feel better, don't worry about us. We want you healthy and happy!!
Nina, It's so good to see your beautiful face! I have missed you! Praying you feel better. It's seems harder with everything going on in this world. It does bring like a depressed spirit on us all. Our life seems to be always waiting with our kitchen remodel. Waiting for the contractors to finish up. They have too many jobs up here because there is not enough of them. Plus the supply thing, always slow. Summer has been beautiful so far. Enjoying the weather here. Trying to lose some weight, it's a real struggle! Praying your horse is healed. And that you and the family are happy and well. You are a beautiful person and we all love you! Sending hugs. Jackie
I started at 49 with menopause I'm now 57 and still sweating. My Dr said it usually has something to do with how it was for my mother. She had the sweats for 10 years then she was always cold. I have severe back problems and can't stand or sit for long due to a herniated disc and sciatica. I experienced the weight gain as well from menopause. All you can do is just take it one day at a time. Eventually it will get better as far as menopause symptoms. Stay positive in thoughts and rest when you need to. Don't beat yourself up because things are rough right now. Relax,rest and take care of yourself. You could download an audio book and lay in the bed you won't even have to hold the book just let them read to you and fall asleep I've always enjoyed that. It's like when you were a little kid having a story read to you when you went down for a nap or 2 bed for the night well it still works today lol.😴 We'll see you when your up to it. Meanwhile keeping you in my prayers. 🙏
I am so relieved to hear that your health problems are not life threatening. Backs are unforgiving and once injured, it is difficult to bounce back. I was injured while trying to stop a fight at the school where I taught and suffered herniated discs in my neck and back. Chiropractic care gave me the only real relief I received. A chiropractor might be able to help with your back pain. Gabapentin is a medication used in the USA which I am currently taking that helps with nerve pain (which incidentally also helps with hot flashes). That might be a possible treatment for you, as well. Blessings and prayers for recovery.
Thank you so much and thank you for all the good advice. I will for sure look into it. Right now I am a little better and hoping it will last long enough for me to get a little bit of stuff done. Have a wonderful week. XOXO
Hi Nina, so sorry your not feeling your best , i love you bunches, your fun , I feel like your a kindred spirit, health problems are not fun at all easy and trying to stay upbeat throughout is difficult, you take care of yourself, we are all hopeful you will feel better soon ,Pam from az
Hi Nina I'm so sorry you have not been feeling well, I have went through menopause so I know what you are going through im glad I'm done with that Nina I love hearing about you and your life you don't always have to do a craft i love when you go outside and show the beauty of Norway, I also have depression and anxiety i take meds for what help me is doing my crafts, I have retired finally doing what I love to do ,I live in a senior apartment i have a big craft room I just enjoy so much watching you my friend please continue sharing your life with us i think of you often hope you are feeling better my friend prayers coming your way I love you my friend God bless ❤
So sorry you aren't feeling well. I too have arthritis in my whole body. I can barely walk and unable to do much of anything. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Take care🥰
Nina you needed the time to rest body, soul and mind. We all have our trials and tribulations in life and deal with things differently. It is not a bad thing. You seemed to have resolved the situation and now decided to move forward. I'm so happy to see your again and looking forward to future videos. Love and prayers from Connecticut. ❤ 🙏
You have described what I felt like at your age ( I'm 65 ) but I was diagnosed with arthritis, I,too went through something traumatic and suffered with depression .Have you been checked for your joint pain ? I'm just getting over covid , I've slowed down so much I'm at a standstill haha .You take it easy so you feel better ,no one will criticise your videos ...it's life ❤ xxJanieDundee
I was just speaking to my mother about you yesterday. I had not seen anything from you and we were hoping you are ok. Please continue to take care of yourself, and know that you are in our prayers.
Dear, dear Nina I'm so sorry to hear your are not doing well. However I think it is a possitive sign you made this video and share it with us. Sweety, I'm sure it will work out for you.
Nina, I hope you start feeling much better soon. I will keep you in my prayers. As for videos, you do whatever you like and I will be here for your next one. You just take care of you.
Someone explained to me that sugar is like sandpaper in our veins... Isn't that horrible... All these years, I never knew.... I'm 62 and am feeling much better with Dr. Gundry's help... I have to learn how to cook the way they eat in the Mediterranean.... I pray that this helps you.... May God bless you, Nina
@@GrandmaGlitter Please check out Dr. Gundry... and get yourself some organic MCT Oil... Put a tablespoon in your coffee every morning and you will be amazed at how your cravings for sugar go away.... My friend started limiting his sugar, ( he ate donuts every single day. donuts, and cake) and taking MCT Oil and has lost over 12 pounds in three weeks... But, the most amazing thing is that he has little desire for sugar... ru-vid.com This could save your very life...
@@skywalker7611 I took a look at a few videos, or bits of videos. It is not news to me the things he is saying and I too think there is a lot more to the gut tham we have been thinking before. I will for sure look more into this. Thank you for sharing it with me. XOXO
Oh I am so sorry but trust me you are not alone!!! And why do we torture ourselves to not speak out about it!! Your videos are my favorite but I get it it’s a lot of work!! But menopause affects each of us different! I had a hysterectomy at 40 by having never ending periods brought on by steroid injections. Bad car accident literally turned my world and family’s upside down!! Going through never ending pain and then surgeries and then thrown for me into menopause I just was lost!! And the over heating it’s like a furnace turned on inside you at the highest temp and you can’t get cool and in turn would change my whole mood!! And then the crippling side effects for me as well Omg!! But hang in there and you post videos like this whenever you want!! We are all a community here and I know how you feel!! Sending you love and prayers my friend ❤
You have been missed. I am sorry you have all these situations. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you feel better soon. Take care of yourself.
You have been dealing with a lot. Be so kind to yourself. Maybe your new 'glitter' is talking through this process with us - with the comments ignored. Remember adolescence when your hormones kicked in? This is the shutting down of some of those and there are things you can do to lighten the drama in your body. I did progesterone at first and helped, but actually I went through menopause natural and am proud of myself.... 14 years of it, so settle in with good healthy snacks. It is really important - a beautiful change - if you just do more like this you'll grow a lot because menopause is real and it would have been easier going through it with someone. I counted 18 hot flashes in one day.
Nina I believe the hot flashes and mood changes are menopausal, but think everything else you are experiences is from COVID. I know it is a Dark time for you but keep you eye on the rainbow and you will come out on the other side feeling 100% better. Do things you enjoy for now and God watch over you sweet lady. Tfs cheers
My sweet Nina, never apologize for how you are and what you are going through. These are life changing events and that is hard enough as it is. Then to add all the other hardships you are enduring feels like you are drowning!!! Try to keep your head above water. You are doing all the right things. Having a therapist/ mental health expert will help more than you know!! We love you and are praying for you. It’s hard to know to if your symptoms are from menopause or Covid or a mix of both! I’m so sorry you are battling all these difficulties now. One thing at a time and breathe!!! We are here for you and take all the time for yourself to get better and heal!!! Do NOT WORRY ABOUT YOU TUBE! You take care of yourself first! All my love and prayers to you sweet Nina!! You let your body dictate how you get back on RU-vid. We are your steady followers so we will wait for you always!! I’m 52 and have had Covid. So the joint pain is real and depression is real for so many across the globe but keep your faith it helps more than you know! God Bless!!🙏❤️🙏
Dear Nina, it is so good to see you again. I have missed you. You know, through the years I have always admired how real & honest you are.You have expressed so many things & feelings that I also share with you. I am older than you & sometimes I think of my mortality instead of living in the moment.Some days, I too just have to psh myself but I try to remember that rainbows follow the storms. In this tipsy turvy world the rabbit hole just seems to be getting deeper. Hope for better days must spring eternal. Maggie , our newest grandchild is thriving & is such a blessing. Our 12 year old granddaughter is under going a major operation this week - a spinal fusion. Her name is Casey , We are all so worried. Many prayers for our sweet girl. Looking forward to better days ahead for you & me. I appreciate the beauty of your opening - Ilove daisies! Wishing you better. healthier days ahead my friend❤️- Take care - Peggy
Nina I’m so very sorry you’re having a bad time. When I went through menopause I had such a hard time. It was awful. It was hot flashes depression crying I had so much pain I would get panic attacks. My Mom had already passed away and I didn’t have her or anymore to ask questions or confide in this just made me feel worse. I totally understand what you’re going through. It was about a year for me and then things slowly settled down. Like you many things were happening in my life at the same time and like you I also suffer from PTSD from childhood trauma. Please hold on Nina hold on and reach out to all of us. We care about you and want to be here for you if you need us. Also a few tips that helped me. I stopped caffeine and Spicy foods and cinnamon. Those things made me worse. II’d listen to music. Soft music. I had tried medication but it didn’t work I got so many side effects it just made things worse. I hope just knowing we all have gone through this terrible time helps you Nina. You’re such a kind and gentle person. I feel very sorry for you I know it’s hard. I’m 64 years old now so that’s behind me now but even now I once in a while get panic attacks when my pain gets bad from my fibromyalgia and arthritis. Nina please don’t pressure yourself to reply to my comments to you it’s alright. Just read what I write and remember you’re not alone. And pray Nina pray for strength and patience to get through this time. I’ll keep you in my prayers Nina. Hugs to you my friend. 🌻🧚♀️🌻
Nina, I went through menopause at 29 years old. I know what your experiencing. However, I went on Hormone replacement and everything got better quickly. I was on it for 30 years. I just recently went off and the joint pain, lethargy and mood swings immediately returned. I too gained a lot of weight and I hated the way I felt. Talk to your doctor and see what he advises. Take care we all miss you. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
So glad you took the time to share this video. Funny but you had been on my mind. Take care of yourself. I know exactly how what you're going through, but know that it will get better. Hugs!
Nina, I just want you to take all the time you need to get past what ever it is that's got you down. You know I'll keep checking in on you! I'm so sorry about the horse not being well! I'm just going to keep sending you good thoughts and prayers your way!! Big Hugs! Theresa
Nina, I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!! I hope you will be better soon, Have you seen the Doctor? Rule out what you have! I wish you all good thought and you will be getting much better soon! Lots of love and hugs to you my sweet friend!! Theresa
God wants us to take care of ourselves I don't know how much you think about God but he wants you to take care of yourself I'm 73 years old I've been through what you are going through. I just want want you to know that it won't last forever praise the Lord of course now I'm 73 and I think it's back LOL
I think a lot about God. I can't say I belive, but I hope. I am a hoper....haha.....I guess I am too much of a realis to say I belive, but I know what I want to be true and I hope that is enough. I try to live a good life and be true to the chritian values I have grown up with. I think you are right, but I am really bad at being good to myslef. I am in training.....haha....and maybe one day I will be kinder to myself. haha....oh no! I hope it does not come back after getting better. XOXO
@@GrandmaGlitter if it does then you hold your head up high and you say it's just another trial to see how much faith I have to endure it one more time and you pick yourself up you dust yourself off you pick up a cup of tea you drink it down you put a smile on your face and you let the world know that you child of God he knitted you and your mother's womb he knows every hair on your head He blesses you when you come out and He blesses you when you walk in you are ahead and not the tail and through Jesus's name whatever you ask he will give that is a promise he has given to all of us as long as you will believe I've been a Christian all of my life I just didn't know how to live as a Christian Christian is a word created to be christ-like sorry it took me so long to get back to you about this I don't get on my internet and my phone very often like I should this month I had all of my teeth pulled I had cataracts removed yeah I'm a hot mess LOL but I'm still a child of God and he still puts me through a lot and I still get up and I dust myself off and I tell the world I am a child of God and there's nothing that could come against me because he is for me and before me amen I love you my child and if I could love you you could love yourself you've got to love yourself trust yourself and all that you do and all that you say you were perfectly made in God's image he created you he loves you and he will not forsake you so don't forsake yourself you are number one to him if there was nobody else but one other person that was a sinner Christ would have came down and been sacrificed for you. I love you God bless you
Hi Nina! I have been worried about you because of not seeing any videos lately. Now I know why and I'm so sorry you are struggling with health issues. I can relate as I was on crutches for a month after .......wait for it........actually NOT falling off my back steps. LOL My dog ran through my legs and tripped me and I went through several twisting contortions trying not to fall to the cement garage floor causing several torn muscles. I may have been better off just falling. LOL I'm still not completely back to normal but slowly getting there. I to was depressed not being able to walk and move normally and the pain was intense. Had to rely on neighbors just to get my mail and put trash out. It was awful.....then my son got covid so I couldn't even see him for weeks and don't get me started on the state of my country and the world right now. We need to hang in there though and stay strong and hopefully it all turns around soon. My son is feeling better so that's a start. Though I love watching any video you put out you need to get better and take care of yourself so take your time and when you are ready I will always be here. Wish I could be there to help you through your struggles.
Hi Nina, I'm sorry you have been going through a lot. I have missed you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Please take all the time you need to feel better. That's more important than the videos. Again it was so nice to see you today and I look forward to hearing that you are feeling much better soon.
Nina, first take care of yourself, then a short video would be great and if you feel like doing a longer one , that would be fine too. Some times things just over whelm us and not feel well doesn't help matters. Take care.
I don’t see the community posts …. And I have notifications for all !! Had been worrying about you !! Finally got a notification yesterday !! It’s not Covid !! I have said that if they told women how bad Menopause would really be .. the death rate for younger women explode !! 🤣😂😝!!! I was always skinny and gained so so much weight !! Because I could have eaten the house and then still be hungry !! When I watched your first video and saw the bed with the comforters etc !! I said oh no I could NOT do that !! Not after menopause!!! I don’t sleep much like I use to !! Burn up and use to freeze !! But it does get better but not for awhile !! You have to push through it !! And it will pass !! So glad to see you !! Have two videos now to watch !!Oh no not a sick baby !! Our saying is that BAD comes in threes !! I can’t concentrate on anything else if I have a sick animal!! Fingers crossed 🤞!
