At least she is trying to make her medical situation better by taking harmful drugs to counteract the natural affect of the loss of hormones on the body. Remember: the woman isn’t any more pleased about the situation than the man is. As a matter of fact, living through menopause is a personal hell for many women. And she gave him fair warning that she is having difficulty. There is nothing in this situation that is remotely funny.
How did that go? Home, home on the . .. . oh that was then. With today’s ‘home life’ even the ‘dysfunctional’ family is sliding away. Or for some it is changing and we are losing the old traditions. Except for those Republicans who are pushing their brand of paternalism and getting deeper in the rising waters of climate change. What the drowning of reality looks like.
Being a nearly 50 year divorced old man, (I survived the woman, her next husband didn’t). I understand that it can be a problem, but I wonder. Do women in other cultures go through the emotional and physical roller coaster that many American women do?I knew a guy who married an Indonesian woman. When they came to the US, she asked him what this PMS was that she kept hearing about. He explained it to her, and she thought he was joking as she had never heard of it in Indonesia.
I didn’t need one of those signs. First, I didn’t take them. Second, he could tell by my face. He was such a dear, and studied up on menopause, and assisted me through it.
Once upon a time, one fine unseasonably hot spring day, went into the dispatch office at work…after waiting a few minutes I made a comment about how they hadn’t turned the air conditioning on yet. Got a few sideways glances, but no one said anything. A moment later one of the guys walks in and declares, “It’s freezing in here.” …Never mind…..
That looks like the same guy/same interior from a few years ago when he came in and said “I went to work this morning, but couldn’t remember why, so I retired”, with a caption “THE BEST SENIOR MOMENT”. Looks like he must have decided to start a second career.
Actually, I knew a man who did Exactly that..He had Both Kidneys and his Liver all fail at the same time..I saw his wife about a month after the funeral. She said the Most Amazing thing about the day he died was that, about half an hour before he stopped breathing, he had the Both of them laughing so hard he almost rolled himself out of the hospital bed.Then, a little while later, he just stopped breathing..He could find the Humor in Any Situation and make You laugh with him..The only person I ever met who could Laugh Out Loud during a Hangover.And he Meant it..Picture a “Robin Williams” sort of person who never became Famous..

Quick! Back to the office while you can still breathe. Might as well drop in at the Mistress’s place en route.

That sign needs to be on the front walk, before he enters the house.

Warning: assuming that she is upset only because the hormone meds have not kicked in may be hazardous to your health.

Would a back/neck/lower back massage help, or make ti worse
