Oh the Horror

Okay, so I was fine with turning forty. Fine with it. Downright cheerful in fact. So why is my body smacking me in the head? It's like the little misery-maid who lives inside of me woke up and said, "Wow, she seems actually happy. Must do something about that."

See, I'm okay with the forty thing, because I look a couple of years younger. But if I'm going to go into goddamn menopause, that is just so not okay with me.

Hey Ayelet,

Reading this on the first day of my period, yuck, yuck, and menopause is looking good to me right now.

Ayelet! You have a blog! You tell me /nothing/ :-)! Now I have to go read all of it.

Oh, and if it's any comfort: my doctor says that yes, those headaches and weird menstrual dates and moodswings may perhaps be an early sign of menopause. I'm only bloody 36 for God's sake!

Sorry to hear about the bipolar thing. You seem to be handling it admirably, though. And the way you write about it has me scratching my head and thinking... I recognise a few things, both from my own behaviour and from my sister's. Hmn.

But why is the blog called 'bad mother'? You are so not a bad mother. Real mother. Down-to-earth mother. Outspoken mother. Divine mother, even, but never 'bad'. I guess it's tongue-in-cheek (and hurray for that!), but I categorically refuse to believe that you are a bad mother. There.

marrije - those "signs of menopause" are also all symptoms of a magnesium deficiency/problem absorbing magnesium into the body. Might be worth looking into.

God, I hope it's magnesium, because I single-handedly changed the year-end sales rates for the pregnancy test companies this month. It took four before I was willing to accept that I wasn't pregnant, that my late period was just AGE. Oh, woe is me. Old is me.

i just found out yesterday that i have become perimenopausal. at 35 turning 36. and my husband and i have not decided whether to have children yet. i married somebody 13 years younger and he just needs time to decide so i gave him another year until this came up.

my friend who has three says she had enough to cover me. but we may still harvest an egg.

and i like reading your blog, even if i have never read any of your books. :-)

Saw your blog about fast payday loan - as it is along the same lines I thought I would share this link with you. We were paying far too much for family things like clothes for us and the kids, games consoles inc the new Wii and soon to be PS3, car insurance/home insurance/pet insurance, broadband, mobile phones, landline calls, home and garden items, camping equipment and utilities/loans etc - you name it, we were spending too much on it.

Then a friend of mine recommended a site called www.bargainplace.co.uk. We were able to get cheaper electricity, gas, mobile phone, broadband and loan deals at bargainplace. Thanks to my friend (and the site) I am saving something like £100 a month and can afford an extra holiday abroard each year. Booked of course on www.bargainplace.co.uk. Thanks bargainplace ;-) !!

Good blog - very interesting!! I liked it so much I'm going to share this hush hush advice with you. Ever wondered how your neighbours are driving around in their brand new BMW or Mercedes cars - with their kids dressed in all the latest named gear and foreign holidays aplenty?? Well they discovered the secret to the extra online income.

If you are looking for a free tool to attract loads of free links to your blog or website then congratulations I've got the solution for you - and it is FREE!!

My website specialises in tampa web site development and to drive traffic to my website I was searching around the internet for absolutely ages looking for SEO tools and ffa submission sites to fire my site up the Google search engine - unfortunately these doing work and in fact had the opposite affect plunging my site down the rankings like it had a heavy weight attached!!, then I signed up for this free superb traffic generating tool - I now have loads of hits to my websites/blogs and my site is shooting back up the Google rankings quicker than ever before.

Consequently this saw my affiliate commissions shoot through the roof - meaning lots of extra money coming in for my family - I bought my first Mercedes car on the proceeds of my online campaign.
Sign up now - it's free.
. Sorry if this information is of no use to you but seeing as you have the anonymous feature enabled I thought I should share this free bit of essential promotional advice with you and would hope you would do the same for me and others who want to boost their online internet income.

I hope the tool will serve you equally as well as it has me - it's free!!

Best of luck, cheers for now, dave.
