(And no it is not about Shades of Grey!!!) That will be
after Feb 20 when I see it.
If you are a boy you can’t read this. And if you are a
boy who works with me please just let go ok? (What are you doing reading my
blog anyways??)
It is so odd. Every month 24 hrs before I get my period I
have a vivid dream the night before that
I get my period. And it is always at a time when I don’t want my period in
my dream. (Although do we ever want it
really?) I wake up an am sure I have period, but then don’t have it. And then
24 hrs later get it.
And it is not that I am so regular or anything so this is
odd.
What it shows me is the power of the hormones and the female
body all connected to female intuition. The body and mind are connected-and the
mind knows and so does the body that the bloody period is arriving (pun
intended)
For me although periods are not necessarily clockwork
(and sometimes are) there are some very predictable elements to this time of
month. Since I don’t want any more babies I find menstruation more and more of
a lost cause and an annoyance as it truly has no purpose in my life.
-about 4 days before it is 100% certain I will get in a huge fight with either my husband or
one of the kids or all of the kids and my husband. During this fight limited to
about once a month, if we are luck that month, I will lose it and be screaming
and crying a lot. This is so not my fault. I cannot control it .
-I will be tired and irritable about 2 weeks before my period.
So generally half the month I am sweet as pie (probably sweeter than most) and
half the month I am a bitch (really bad). I am quite pleased as before two
years ago it was about 3 months and 4 days I was irritable leaving about 4 days
a month (with blood) that I was pleasant to live with. Now it is two whole
weeks!
-after I get my period I am so…calm. And serene…and happy
and peaceful for a few…moments...hours...days
I thought about this today because the hormones affect me
to this level imagine what this does to teens with their constant raging hormones?
We can’t get to irritated and angry with them-as their bodies are out of
control! Seriously I bet they feel like I do the 4 days before my period pretty
much all the time. We can’t hold them liable for their behavior then can we?
They are hormonal messes! Let’s see if I
remember this next time our teens pull something that irritates me (everyday)
Like this morning after thousands and thousands of times
of me telling Beauty to make sure clothes not on floor in mornings and lamp off
as a fire hazard-I walk into her room that she was supposed to have cleaned
last night and what do I see? I see no floor at all-that is how bad it is. And
two lamps on. It was and is pathetic and I am at a loss for words. But hey
maybe it is her hormones!!! Yes let’s blame everyone’s bad characteristics in
the house and their disobedience on that!
My daughter has had her period for 10 months now and
thank goodness she and I are pretty much on the same cycle. And similar moods too.
(poor men in our home)Tonight we are both in good moods..and we had fun. Can’t
wait until next month to catch a glimpse of that again.
If you are a boy and you arrived to this point…you are a
bad bad boy. And you deserve feeling a little awkward. And so do I!
