A Few Choice Words about Hot Flashes

Yup.  You read that right.  Hot Flashes!  I just celebrated another birthday this month and am still in my mid-thirties, however my body seems to think I am older.  The correct term I guess is, perimenopause.  These past couple of years has seriously aged this Mama.  No wonder I am packing up camp and retiring to SW Florida in a couple of years!  HA!  Just kidding.  The move actually, is a new start for us and we all have a whole lot of living to do down there.  The only think we will be retiring is our winter coats!  Hooray for that!!!

Wow, I just got off topic..........

Anyhow.  I would just like to vent to a moment about hot flashes.

First, who the hell named them hot flashes?  Hot is an understatement!  You know I like the heat and being hot is fine by me.   Being scorched is something completely different and not tolerable.  So "F" you "hot flashes." 

Second.  Why is the word flash even in there?  It isn't like they come and go in a flash.  They come on fast, yes.  But the stay around for a while.  It is like a whole session of torturing heat.  "Flash" my A@$!!

I am naming mine Scorch Sessions.  Seems more appropriate to me.  Maybe I will say, "I am having a Double S."  Or call them S.S.  for short.  I don't know.  Just a random complaint about the term "Hot Flash."

Ok.  That is all.

Back to your regularly scheduled day.

For me it is all about cleaning the house from top to bottom, and wiping a whole lot of runny noses.



Love, Peace, and Sandy Feet,
Mama Nic
