Yes, the menopause card is a double-edged sword isn't it? I love this part:<BR/><BR/>"Now, between you and me, at 46 I probably am perimenopausal but that didn't have anything to do with why I blew up that day. I live with slobs. They pissed me off!"<BR/><BR/>Perhaps the hormones allowed you to give yourself more leeway...i.e. the blowup? I always say that we don't suffer fools gladly anymore in these years. <BR/><BR/>My mother used to tell us if we didn't smarten up & do our chores (myself, my brother & our father), she would get her own apartment. In retrospect I realize she was perimenopausal.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>Ellen Besso<BR/>www.ellenbesso.com/midlifemazeEllen Bessohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18386228431789712508noreply@blogger.com
