Summertime

"Summertime and the living is easy." Or so the song goes. For those of us with hot flashes, summer can find us peeling off clothes faster than a Las Vegas stripper. When the man in bed with you says "You're hot!" this is not a compliment. It's code for "move over, your body's become a radiator - again."

It's true, a hot flash raises your skin temperature 4-8 degrees - Instantly. Suddenly you find your cheeks rosy, you're glistening and everyone is plotting to use you as the S'more maker at the next cookout.

My solution, buy yourself a convertible with a great air conditioning system. You deserve it baby cause you're hot!

Second Time Around


I received a call from a friend. "Carol I need another copy of the book. My friend is facing her second bout with Breast Cancer." Then I received a link to the blog "Life's Funny Like That." The top story is about Mary, who's facing Breast Cancer for the second time. Whoa! That will give a survivor pause.

So let's pause for a moment ladies. Step away from the computer - the vacuum or whatever task you're engaged in and take a moment to celebrate your life.
