Getting Back on Track

Hello My Lovelies! I apologize for my absence, but I needed a creative break. Every time I sat down to write last week, the words just came out sounding cranky and that’s not what I want this blog to be about. Humorous, honest and (hopefully) inciteful at times, but not cranky 😁.

I’m hopeful that my creative break has helped me to refocus my writing. Guess we’ll have to see know now won’t we 😜? By the way, does anyone else’s fingers have a mind of their own when typing? I don’t know why I am consistently typing know for now 🤦‍♀️. I seriously have typing issues 😆😆.

Anyway, I also took a break because I realized part of my crankiness is the world in general is just disappointing me lately – particularly the news. Politics aside, why is it so hard to just extend kindness to people? A smile, a simple “have a nice day” or perhaps a compliment can really brighten someone’s day. And I find myself feeling a warm tingle in my cold dead heart (just kidding) as well when I greet people with a smile or a kind word. Think about incorporating kindness into your daily life and see if it makes your day a little better, if only for a short while 😊.

Lastly, I have been dealing with an issue that my gynecologist did not think is an issue and that has had me distracted lately. As I make my way through this wonderful thing we call “the change” (for good reason), there has been a change in my own body that does not feel normal as my doctor claims it is (I had to call twice to insist on an appointment 🙄). And maybe it is, but when you’ve had various issues in that region over the years, you trust your instincts. I know my body, and this is not how my body works 😁. Besides it’s my money and if I want to be sure, then run the tests needed to assure me. So, I have another appointment next week for a certain test and should know something in the next month. It was annoying because I’m not an alarmist, so if I call outside of my annual visit, attention should be paid – just saying 🤷‍♀️.

And don’t be too concerned (yet) because I don’t think I’m experiencing anything radical, just something that indicates there may be more going on than menopause. As patients, we absolutely have to advocate for ourselves if we are concerned and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise – unless you’re a hypochondriac, then maybe take a breath before calling 😉.

So that’s a quick update on my life, other than I need to take a news break again. It’s just so depressing 🙁. And I need to figure out my place in the universe – nothing too heavy 🤪. 

I will work on getting back on track, so bear with me My Lovelies 💜💜💜

Peace!
