Yes ladies, you have entered menopause.

Track your symptoms.

Track your diet.

Track your exercise.

Track your sunshine.

Do this for six months.

You will see by doing this exercise that you seem to feel more hyper and more concentrationless during certain weeks of the month.

I am telling you this because I am the perfect menopausal example and I’m wicked hyper today and wicked no concentration.

For instance, I made a list, checked it twice, did a ton of errands, was even at two grocery stores to check prices and return bottles and forgot to drop off my film.

Where’s my head? I even had the list with me.

But to reiterate a concentration tip I believe I learned in “Readers Digest” is to repeat three things during your day and you won’t forget those.

But, I just assumed I’d remember the film, so I should of made it four things. Don’t get carried away though, four should be your limit for awhile or you will drive yourself crazy.

I’m off to get my dose of sunshine, it really helps you feel great, yesterday it helped my depression, today it will help me feel good.

Don’t fret, oh my goodness, it’s just a silly symptom. It could last a week though,my stuff like this is usually the first week of the month and then it disappears as fast as it came.

I will sip on camomile tea today, yesterday was peppermint tea. I’ll do some housework and then catch another favorite dvd while I wind down.

Next week when working, I’ll be fine,and if it occurs when I am working, I’ll just have to tell myself it is happening and not to fret. I must remember not to drink coffee when it is this week. You are not alone, so just relax and enjoy your new phase in life, don’t you think you are wiser too? I think I am wiser and more care free, so it’s not bad.

The book “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff” is great, try and get it at your local library or order it on line.
It’s even small so you won’t get bored with it.

See ya.
