It's definitely hormones. Too many of them, if you ask me!
Little things that mildly amuse or irritate me (depending upon whom is saying/writing things to me) can set my teeth on edge. It's particularly difficult to discern in this kind of medium the "tone" (again, with the "tone", Sarah!). When I am being more rational (I'm never completely rational, I don't think), I take things in stride and I don't overreact. However, the past few months, I've been more a nutter than ever over the tiniest of things.
I just want to say: I am so sorry. If I come across as ridiculously impatient or unusually out of sorts, I am so sorry. I can help this behaviour; I know that I have a choice! Some time I slip. Please forgive me.
I have more issues on Facebook than here, of course, but some of you are my friends on FB as well. So, you have likely read my idiocy. I try and keep it real and honest all of the time. I un-friended some people in a whirlwind of being upset at them . . . and it was wrong. I should just delete what they say and move on; say a prayer. It is not easy for me to do with these old woman surging hormones. I cannot understand it, but that is what it is! No wonder people make such fun of menopausal women. I believe I am in peri-menopause (which can last what seems ages when you're in it, but which is anywhere from 5-10 years - which, at my age is lightning fast at times). Not fast enough when I'm waking in the night drenched in sweat from an internal fire bath! Yes, I've had done three times since last year.
Please just be patient with this tottering old fool of a lady . . . as I come to slippery grips with my aging.
