Is It Hot In Here Or Is It Just Me...?

Aging yet still young

Asian and envied by many of same age

Straight as an arrow was my hair once but now curly as Shirley Temples'

Less firm are the ol' cantaloupes but still ripe as ever

I guess I'm truly getting old

The age of hot flashes have crashed upon my being and lifestyle

Gone are the days of being cozy and bundled up in a turtle neck shirt, a wool sweater, warm sweat pants, and fuzzy warm slippers.

Now it's 'layers' I have to remind myself daily.

A thin cotton shirt beneath a light weight sweatshirt, light weight pants and flip flops. No socks or shoes...too hot.

Uck! I never imagined going through this 'time' in my life at such an early age, 37.

I thought one was still considered young if one hadn't crossed the ol' forty 'finish line', Heh!

But unfortunately in my case it is not true.

I am in Hot Flash City and not enjoying the weather or the views.

I'm TOO YOUNG so I thought but medical science says I'm just right in the prime if one is to go through it before the mid-forties.

Ode to joy for me...
