It seems that hormones are the hot topic of conversation this week, but leave it to Pamela at Silent Sorority to find the humor and silver lining in menopause.
Quoting information from The North American Menopause Society, Pamela writes:
“Have you found yourself in recent years ‘flooded with emotions as the reality sets in that [you] will no longer be able to conceive a child. The impending loss of fertility can rattle overall identity as well as a sense of sexuality and desirability.’”
Pamela’s eloquent response?
“Been there done that — got the freakin’ t-shirt.”
I read her post yesterday morning and, to be honest, it set my attitude to positive for the entire day.
It’s no mean feat to find the humor or the silver lining in infertility, menopause, or unplanned childlessness, but when you do, it can really make your corner of the world a brighter place, even if only for a day.
Wishing you all a Fabulous Friday and a lovely – and humor-filled – weekend.

Feel free to use my preferred quote: “Been there, done that – sold the movie rights.” 🙂
Sending the love and warm wishes back to you, Lisa. Your sparkling wine is on its way.
Kathleen – I like your quote better! (here’s hoping you have the magic touch with movie rights)
