OT: Perimenopause is like...

... entering the argument clinic, only to find that the inhabitants think it's the ministry of silly walks.

You know, maybe I did. Right now, I'm having Rice Krispies because it's the closest thing in the house to conversation.

Been through all that already (early) and ...isn't it fun?!

Been there, doing that. I started at the ripe ol' age of 34, wee hoo.

remember it is normal and with hormones raging or waining it's o.k. to go for the throat

I hate it when there's more to shave on your face than there is on your legs......

Perimenopause is like....hmmmmm....dementia?

I started getting my first symptoms at 36. It was really frustrating to look up "perimenopause" on the internet and find about 7,000 different potential symptoms. We're women, we're complicated. And no two are alike, apparently.

So, for me, perimenopause is like owning a complicated machine that needs a tune-up, but the instruction manual is written in Chinese (and for a totally different machine too!). Oy!

I know that I'm feeling demented. x-(

And weary.
