Did some singing, PMS

I had a blast! We did a two hour concert on Sunday night and I gotta tell ya… it’s been a long time. It’s a totally different vibe. Performing a concert on a big open stage for two hours is no joke. It’s hard work cause every gesture, every movement must be so big – just so the audience can see ya. And I am running all over the stage – can’t help myself. BUT it showed me that I am an outta shape cow. (meant in only the most favorable sense to any other cows reading this) The work was spiritually rewarding and I did craft a wonderful show – if I say so myself. I did all of the squats, kicks and dancing I could muster. But afterwards my ass was killing me. Well, not my ass, but my knees, calves, heels and lower back were a hot mess. Also, I was a bit sleep deprived and I think maybe, PMS-SEY – at least I am hoping so.

That’s my newest PMS symptom – lower limb pain and intense heel pain – as though the urge to eat everything in sight wasn’t enough. These pains intensify every month right before my cycle begins. I always forget until after my cycle starts!! Oh that explains the extra pain this month – again.

OY! being a woman…

However, a few of my friends have stopped all of that nonsense (menstruating) and that makes me take pause for a minute…

No menstrual cycle = Menopause = enter the Crone stage.

Now mind you, I have never desired kids (except for that one time I dreamed I had a baby but I kept losing it) but I’m kinda taken aback at Nature for telling me I am no longer even viable to do so… Have I shared my recent musings about my “barrenness?” Hmmm… sounds like a blog topic for sure.

There are a lot of women in my age group who are single and childless. Some of us are very regretful about it. I am not regretful but I sometimes wonder: “what if?”

What am I talking about? This cat has been a HUGE adjustment for me and I only recently stopped thinking that I might drop her off at the nearest animal shelter.

I am an old barren outta shape cow!…. Oh yeah… this is definitely PMS!!

Cheers!
