I've been working on a post for a week now. This is it.
I had my first hot flash, and for a moment it seemed perfectly rational to take off all my clothes in a room with 16 other people in it.
I really thought I'd be smarter by now, that I'd have it all together and be as smart as the women I've admired all my life.
I was wrong.
Evidently, I've been laboring under more than a few misconceptions. I'm pretty sure they'll each need individual posts, and will end up comprising a series which may never end.

I never really believed in spontaneous human combustion until I started having raging hot flashes.
It sounds perfectly reasonable to me to strip off nekkid in front of a crowd.
Have a blessed and joyous Easter, Clemntine. :-)
Please new friend of mine, tell me you are kidding. Since you're only 3 yrs older than me, I don't like this post ONE BIT.
I was driving in my car when I had my first hot flash. I pulled off the road and just waited to die. It passed...I lived...but that first one scared the heck out of me. I always laughed at the "older" ladies who talked about their flashes...I am not laughing anymore...
I've heard that hot flashes are really just your inner child...playing with matches!
I'm thinkin a hot flash might have felt good back in January when it was 5* overnight and my thyroid wasn't functioning. ;)
Isn't being a human kiln fun?
Welcome to the club, sista! As an older woman in my life once told me (she's such a delicate Southern Belle), they aren't hot flashes, they're "POWER SURGES". Personally, I've blown many a fuse!
Behold, we are fearfully and wonderfully made! And when one considers "the change" and all the changes comprised thereof, "fearful" is indeed the operative word!
