Moods 101

What a difference a day makes...that could go for many things. I'm talking about moods. My moods are all over the map at times. I didn't even realize I'd been depressed, until I felt great today. Wow, unbelievable.

I really think it's the peri-menopausal thing. I'm not in menopause yet, just the beginning stages.
Talk about hormonal....*phew* I heard someone liken it to PMS on steroids! Ha you can say that again. For all my younger friends out there, I don't want to scare you or depress you, just reiterate what you've probably already heard.

I started having night sweats about 5 years ago...you would think someone poured a bucket of water over my body, when I was sleeping... So, I make it to the bathroom and wring out my clothes, and by that time I'm freezing. Take them off, and grab a towel lay it down over the crime scene (thats what it looks like) so that I'm not laying on top of my sweat.

I will say something strange--I like the smell of my sweat. Yes, I do, it's sweet. I 'm just weird that way...I tend to like strange smells. I'm so wet, my hair and inside my ears are wet--like I've been swimming.

I look at it in the morning and think, "boy I've lost that much water.?" "What does that calculate out to, in weight loss?" Hmmmmm.

I've mentioned before everything goes back to the weight thing.

Another aspect of pre or peri-menopause is the thinning of your hair and I'm not talking on your head! I don't have to say anymore do I ladies? That is just so weird as well. No one ever told me about that aspect. You look south and I'm like where'd it go? huh.

Back to the reason of this post is, it's a great day! And I'm enjoying myself.
