Most of the time my phone doesn't ring. It bleeps a lot (FB messenger) - but it rarely rings.
Of course today - being the day of packing and sorting for hols - just happened to be the day that everyone needed to speak to me. Everyone from my daughter, to my mother, to the solicitor, to the estate agent. So whilst I was trying to concentrate on the Icelandair online check-in (does anyone else check they've correctly entered their passport numbers at least five times?) - my phone was merrily beeping, ringing and buzzing (emails). And what makes it worse is that not only does the phone make all these noises - the iMac simultaneously makes its own noises. For texts, FB messages and incoming phonecalls. Add all that to my growing to-do list on the blackboard... The stress was unbearable. So mid-check-in I googled menopause symptoms: I'm not sleeping, stressed, anxious, absolutely exhausted, decidedly warm most of the time and suffering with my fourth cold since August It seems I might just have caught the menopause from my best bud. So whilst she was excited (in her words 'I've never had anything before') - I'm gutted. "Go get the tests done" she said. Not bloody likely. If I have the tests done and they're positive - then I know that the future holds no more than dry skin and sweaty hair. And if it's negative - then I'm just falling apart for no reason. Of course this could all be down to stress and not old age:
