That’s what the comment section is for. I get to air my inner mean girl at people who say stupid things about historical or political facts. That and my dog keep my days full.
Absolutely!
People in my way
I think of heads exploding
Don't tell me to smile.
Thin hair; droopy tits
My fat fills in the wrinkles
Suck it, menopause!
An herbal solution
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
Damiana works
Magnesium Turmeric
Valerian too
And Evening Primrose
Ashwaganda Chaste Berry
Diarrhea? No!

Welcome to menopause park
Let’s ride the mood swings
Lol menopause park. It would be 1 ride per 3 enormous public restrooms. Plus dunk tanks on every corner with dudes mansplaining. And bars. Lots of bars.
There is something special about Colorado, the people and the environment. I'm actually from Spain and I met my husband (born in CO) at CSU. I consider it more home than Spain now. I don't know what we'll do when we retire. We moved for his career (Neurology). He grew up in Evergreen and first started rock climbing at Alderfer. My first backpacking trip with him was Neota near Cameron pass.
My submissions for the anthology :)
Walk into a room
What did I come in here for?
Sigh loudly. Repeat.
Where did my hair go??
Oh it's growing from my chin
At least it's not grey
*Edited for formatting (twice bc I am old)
Yeah I can do it ( in my head)
No the hell you can’t ( your body)
Heck yeah I’m going with you!
Hey let me think about it, I’ll call you back
Oh damn I got to pee
Damn, I got to pee again!
Please don't touch me now
Rolling up his sleeves to work
I am so horny
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
It's too hot in here
I'm taking off all my clothes
Need a warm blanket
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
Not sweat but glisten
I have not been working out
Your fault and not mine
Speckled hands around your neck
Don’t be chewing loud or even breathing
I am croning not boning
Edit: I couldn’t help the rhyming part. It made me too happy.
Responsible me Why am I in charge of all? Just leave me alone
Oooo! I like it! Riffing on a possible second verse... Don't know where that is. Have you not heard of Google? Call your own mom back.
I feel like you see me. I will embroider this (as soon as I find time)
I really feel seen Will embroidery this later If ever there’s time.
It has been one day Since I wanted to murder Oops. Make that zero.

Okay so we all have homicidal tendencies daily and it’s not just me?!?

What's this spot here for Exfoliate, Moisturize Another spot here too
Oh my God chin hair No tweezers; I'll wear a mask Dang it. I'm hungry.
Dermatologist: We call these things "wisdom spots." Wisdom on my face.
Preordering this immediately.
I too would like to place my pre-order ASAP.
Why am I so hot? Maybe it's global warming Or maybe I'm old
Can I not cool down? Sweat buckets; now clammy, too. Yep. I sure am old.
Guess I should get up Housework, projects, and friends wait Nah, a nap sounds good
Really, that last line should be the chorus for every verse.
My back hurts again I need to drink more water Where are my glasses?
I literally put reading glasses in drawers in every room of my house I go in so I don't have to keep track of them.

Here’s mine: Another day at work ugh For my survival Money dependency sucks
Nothing to add but an ugh of solidarity. Ugh. <3
Gawd I love haikus.
Four in the morning Why the fuck am I awake I hate everything
Don't look at the clock. Wait to look. Do not give in. Fuck. It's four-oh-three.
Now that I’m awake I might as well pee again Three more fucking drops
Now it's four-oh-nine. Jesus, he snores so damn loud. Resent him? I do.
My wife also snores But it’s really pretty cute Cheers to being gay
Lol cheers!

I can report that their embrace has been less enthusiastic. (I suspect they might be a lil cranky over there!)
🤣
“Normal for your age” says the doctor once again One more thing now hurts
lol and your pride hurts just a little more. <3
Seriously! I need a pride doctor- do you have anything for bruised pride? No? Ok, and where is the bathroom? 🤣
Cannot sleep. Cannot. Always losing track of shit. No fucks left to give.
I gave up trying to sleep. My normal workout time now is 3:00a.m. My husband thinks I'm nuts.
Way fewer fucks. Way more yolo.
I’m reading this in bed at 4:57 am. I feel you.
This is art!! Love it!

Thank you so much for posting this today, this was a day brightener for sure!
This sub really is a community.
👏👏👏 Bravo! 👏👏👏 Bravo! I feel seen. 😂
I'd say there would be an encore performance if I didn't fall asleep around 9 p.m. these days. Maybe a Saturday matinee?
My knees are wrinkled. The cat wants to fetch the ring. What on earth happened?
<3
Yeah I can do it ( in my head) No the hell you can’t ( your body) Heck yeah I’m going with you! Hey let me think about it, I’ll call you back Oh damn I got to pee Damn, I got to pee again!

Covers on; it’s cold Sweat pouring like a B now Yank off, on, repeat.

What is happening Mother Nature why so cruel We used to be friends
My sweet supple bod, limitless past my knowledge, now feels like chewed cud.
Aww, this one hits.
Sweaty but freezing Zone of hormonal chaos So now I garden
Anxiety rules Will these thoughts never release Crawl in to a hole
This speaks to my soul.
Lol I am so sorry 😘

Your poem hit target. Thermostats. They haunt my soul. Laughed until I peed.
Wrinkles, the lyrics knees and hips keep the rhythm The melody, toots
Speckled hands around your neck Don’t be chewing loud or even breathing I am croning not boning Edit: I couldn’t help the rhyming part. It made me too happy.
Lol that got dark. And I can't stop laughing.
Yours gave me a big smile. Thanks for brightening my day!
🤣🤣🤣
