What did you do in the garden today?

[Liz Birdlover]

We were cold & rainy for weeks, a few nice days in the 60s but over all, more like 40s on average, which is typical. Well, today we are nearly 90 degrees! What the heck happened to spring? I had a hot flash so bad, I had to peel my sweaty clothes off & take another shower. So, yeah, I am watering today. LOTS OF WATERING.

I'm sorry, I was laughing WITH you, not at you. Hot flashes SUCK!

I went thru mental pause after I was spayed due to cancer.
100 years ago 1984.
My Ma said no such thing, I got even when she did it.
I have no systems any more but it was like 1986.

Omg they are wicked!!! I'm usually cold, so when one happens, I've got layers to rip off! They started when I was going through chemo the 1st time in my 30s & they're brutal. Ever see a girl whip her wig off of her head & use it as a fan? Driving down the road, I got lots of shocked expressions when I did that! That darn chemo forces your body into an instant menopausal condition...no one tells you about most of the side effects of chemo, they just mention the nausea & baldness, but there are numerous other far more "uncomfortable" effects they fail to tell us about. Most are permanent, too.

Again, I'm sorry for laughing but

Again, I'm sorry for laughing but

Oh I was laughing when I saw people's eyes get wide & look shocked, funniest darn thing ever

I had a gorgeous wig, like my own hair but better as I Never Had a Bad Hair Day with it. So yeah, to see someone pull it off of a cue ball head then use the wig as a fan...I'm sure it was shockingly hilarious

I've had hot flashes so bad that I was legit SERIOUSLY tempted to stand naked outside during a snow storm. . I told DH "it's snowing. No one will be able to see me..." His response "except your horrified teenage children..."

I picked myself a mini-bouquet this afternoon. I'm ready for all my newly planted summer flowers to be in full bloom already...

This is Penny and now I'm wondering if her name needs to be Petey! Anyone who might know the difference between a pullet and a Cockerel.

Looks like a cockerel in that photo! So Petey!
