just a few years ago when the girls got together for our weekly coffee and gossips , most of our conversations will be focused on men, husbands , minor wives , how ungrateful our kids are , how ungrateful our partners were ….
times have changed drastically … now all our conversations are mainly focused on how horrible our bodies have become . we really fight to prove that each of our bodies were worse . my great friend Abby , she insists that she hadn’t gained weight , it’s just she is extremely bloated especially in her face. Beth, has not been eating much but she has massive mood swings …
i mean , she has been biting her mom’s head off … and usually Beth is such the loyal daughter doting on her mom head to feet. myself … i have lost all interest in the opposite sex … much enjoying my time with my dogs .. (from 1 – 9 in the span of just 2
years ). We all had problems and i think we all secretly enjoy bitching about it . Not to mention all of us had thinning hair , greying hair … all over …
Most of our problems can be addressed quite easily by going to a well established wellness doctor. mind you , there are some fantastic quacks out there … honestly when you are in our predicament … one can sell snake oil and tell us it works miracles and we will believe , not because we are gullible , but because menopause is such an ugly truth . we try to push it away , try to hide it , and try to convince ourselves it’s not our bodies going hay wire. We can convince ourselves that we can make it go away by this pill, this medication , .. etc.
There are many ways we can cope with or combat our bodies during this “golden” age . i do wonder who the smart-ass who coined the term , “golden “ . I don’t feel gold at all .. i feel less a women , even less a human . Some days go by that i feel a “presence” following me , by that i mean i could smell something awful following me around … i finally realized after a few sleepless nights , its just my body odor . This menopause thing … made me smell like
trucker .. a trucker on Red Bull and no showers …
i can go on and on … but this is just the
“ golden “ beginning.
