Menopause Mondays: The Twelve Days of Christmas, Menopause- Style

Since the holiday season means getting together and partying with friends and family who may be going through “the change” (*cringe*) themselves, I thought it would be fun to reinvent the Twelve Days of Christmas. Who needs a partridge in a pear tree, two turtledoves, or five golden rings? Well, maybe that last one…

What I’m offering you is The Twelve Days of Christmas, Menopause-Style. Use this as a tool to share with friends, while you both stand barefoot in the snow, trying to cool off while simultaneously hoping that your twenty-something neighbour doesn’t catch you. Laughter might be your best defense against the possibility of such encounters as the line-budger, the road-rager, the last-20-pound-turkey-grabber, or your husband who is annoyingly as crisp and cool as a cucumber, despite the fact he was just cutting firewood…

*Ahem!*
