See told you it was menopause.So What Was It That Prompted Me To Do This Right Now?
A number of things really but mostly the fact that I KNOW I am menopausal now because I have an opinion about EVERYTHING! Yes I know, many who know me would say I always have, the difference is, I used to be able to place my tongue beneath my teeth a little better than I can now.
I should have known really, that I would be a mouthy meno lady. I mean I have been hormonal one way or another for most of my life but heck knows ........ this latest phase takes the biscuit and you know what I don't even feel the need to make any apology.

So let me tell you about today. A fairly normal day in the land of Mizzie.
Nerm II (husband of almost 10 years) has a habit of setting his alarm clock, at least 20 minutes, usually half an hour, before he physically gets out of bed. So come on, I can't be the only one who finds this the most foul start to the day, surely?
To make matters worse, last night I actually went to bed 'tired' enough to sleep and slept the sleep of the dead!
Ask any menopausal woman how hard it is to sleep and if you think she slept, ask her if she feels rested? But this morning was one of those mornings. Room EXACTLY the right temperature, feeling like it was the most blissful sleep ever!
However, Nerm thinks it's a really cool idea to set his mobile phone alarm too. Today, this resulted in me being woken, annoyed, bothered, pestered and irritated every 7 minutes (why are some of these things pre-set to 7 minutes?) between 7.15 and 7.55 when I get up and then have to cajole, manipulate and sometimes irritate our gorgous, hormonally challenged daugther out of the door to arrive at her place of education on time, (thankfully only 5 minutes walk away from our front door.)
I still can't understand why, when I knew he was in a meeting at work, from 12.17 I called his mobile phone allowing the kitchen timer to ping down his mobile phone LOUDLY! And again 7 minutes later and 7 minutes after that.
My point being: It's very irritatiing being distrubed every 7 minutes for almost three quarters of an hour, when you feel what you are doing is important.
Now don't get me wrong, this isn't a new thing in our lives, its an on and off, ongoing issue and it'll be interesting to see what happens tomorrow.
