Menopause Awareness Month

Did you know that September is Menopause Awareness Month ?  I didn’t either! but my question is – does any woman out there not know about menopausal?  haha!! kidding! kidding!  I’m pretty sure – everyone knows about it – even the men.   And i wished i had known about it earlier when my own mom was menopausing – then perhaps i could have been a comfort to her instead of thinking she is going crazy.

But you can’t really blame me too because I was a teenager and in our culture – in Asia i mean – we don’t talk about stuff like that.  Plus there was no internet then!  when i turned 18 and wanted to learn about the birds and bees – my mother was so mad with me – and called me a whore !  yes! that was the environment i was in back then.  I’m just glad that I’m more educated and there are books to read on menopausal and other stuff – and Missy Moo will never be called names because she is curious.   And for those – who have sisters, wives, mothers going thru’ it – i suggest – you read more about it.   Why?  to help you prepare yourself – for all the questions they may have or even to help understand them better.

Slow Laptop

I tried to borrow a laptop from a friend to use during my stay in the hospital, but it was too old to be of much use. It was still running Windows 98 and didn’t have enough ram to upgrade it to Windows XP. 98 would have been fine for most things, but the wireless adapter I have isn’t supported by 98, it only works on 2000 or higher. It was a nice thought though, but I managed to go without.

Stop Blaming

I have to stop blaming the man for the pain in my fibroids.. ! although i donch say it out loud.. i know… i blame him.. for the situation that i am in.. because of the immigration thing that we took so long to do.

But i am equally to be blamed.. because i always wanna pay the bills first for the store.. and the staff before all else. I have to stop blaming.. to stop myself.. from being resentful at times.. and feeling pitiful for myself. Not healthy..! gotta move forward.. ! despite hard.. i still gotta..!
