weekend!

what a weekend!
after being so cocky about not having "supposed" side effects from my hormone drugs.
they all crept up and bit me on the arse sat night! my god!
Went out to dinner with friends was feeling good put the layers of makeup over the hormonally challenged acne face and dressed up in my "new" boots, bought off trade me (see picture) bought for a cool $45!!!! So cool!


ok, ok, geting off subject now!! (its the menopause alright!?)
one red wine down ! then WHAMMO!!! my headaches hit full force couldnt even string a sentence together think one of the girls thought i was smashed but i was just really mash brained from pain and hot flushes,
Then i felt like bursting into tears (for no particular reason) and because it was for no reason that i felt like crying i figured that was quite funny so wanted to burst out laughing as well ! (talk about conflicting emotions)

So now i know why the little booklet i was given called "COPING WITH TREATMENT" says........
"one day you will have one way to deal with a side effect then the next day it wont work at ALL!!" and you will have to find another way to handle it ha ha!

ok so im feeling ok today i figure i have to take each day, hour by hour now, not day by day.

Angus took me to hot pools sunday morning, no one was there so it was so lovely had a little sleep in pools then home to watch a movie and a little avo siesta (as had a work dinner to go to and didnt want same thing to happen to me from sat night)

Took my drugs to dinner as I have to inject same time every night, and did a lovely show for the staff with my injection yes yes photos were taken. and jokes were shared lucky i was feeling emotionally stable i didnt have to get all freaky menopausal on them he he.

Actually it may sound strange but as i see my bosses and workmate more than anyone at the mo, i seem to be quite comfortable around them all and i suppose they are all the most clued up with everything step by step (apart from angus) so its quite good they are all supporting me heaps???
