Power surges and life changes

Power surges a.k.a. Hot flashes officially suck. They mess up my sleep pattern! You don't know if you are going to have a period or not and all of your symptoms (PMS) are still present even though "Aunt Flo" does not visit. Total mayhem!

On the plus side, I have found life without "Aunt Flo" to be sort of a blessing in disguise. It is amazing when you can go through life without having to change a tampon through out the day!

I also have found a new found peace in knowing that all those crazy things that I used to worry about when I was younger are just not that important! Life truely beings at 40. Now that I am 4 months away from 50, (ok...that number looks bigger in print than it feels when I say it), I am looking forward to life being even that much more fun! If we only knew at 20 what we know now. 20 year olds would be dangerous! There is no trade off for Experience. Life was meant to be lived that is certain. And experiencing all of it.........aaahhh.......that's where you begin to unfold all of what life has to truely offer!

Well I am off to do my hair and get ready for work. If only I were financially independently wealthy :)

I donno ma, I'm totally liking being 19. No money issues. No kids. No job. No real responsibility outside school. Life's pretty good.

So, if life begins at 40 - does that mean all of my debts will be erased in 10 years? 'Cause that'd be awesome! I could use a little life experience in advance if you have any tips!
