In the Department of Duh!

I've been watching a lot of Donnie and Marie reruns to torture a part of myself and celebrate another. LOL. Actually, in the endless hunt for the joke, I have to find that one clip I remember from childhood.
Anyway, it's bringing up all sorts of emotions and feelings I wasn't feeling or recognizing or labeling or acknowledging or celebrating or whatever. But wow. There they are.
Like how all my first celebrity crush guys were the ones with the great hair. I remember jokes about women being jealous. Of their hair. or whatever.
No wonder I was confused.

Thoroughly Menopausal Millie Says:

Don't forget your meds. Whatever you're on for whatever reasons that are not related to menopause, too! One balance being off sways the whole delicate system.
Especially on days when you are so menopausal that you refuse to take any black cohosh or plain label estroven.

I'm not in a bad mood, I'm menopausal.

Rating Scale

Addressing the unasked question:

There are two reasons I have decided to put a rating scale on my two blogs:

1. Because my arts-and-crafts blog is youth friendly

B) In case I write anything here that is too personal for sensitive family members to read. You have been warned. I am searching for myself, not looking to place blame, but I have to speak my own truth. And this is where I will do it.
(Oh, and I love swears)

The Law of Serendipity

I was just making a rubber stamp of a 13 this week. Then I found this, the night before my 13th birthday, I signed in my diary: The next time I write, I will be 13!

From the 'you can't make this shit up' department:

Looking for some art supplies the other day, I accidentally found my 'diary' from around my 13th birthday.
The day of my birthday, which it seems that 13 was a big deal to me at that time, was a boring Tuesday. My birthday being so close to Christmas, I knew the drill, my birthday was often boring itself (especially on a Tuesday), but the overall season of birthday-Christmas was always great.
The entry on my birthday was short, so I couldn't help read it when I found it.
I signed my name Natalie.
