Well, not completely.....but I just realized this past week that I'm starting to become a bit more like her. Here's what led up to that conclusion.....I really was quite proud of myself that I was able to totally embrace going through menopause.....wasn't too keen on the sweltering heat factor.....but as long as a fan was around I survived it fairly well. Then I started to notice over the past few weeks that I'm ALWAYS cold.....like turn up the heat cold.....and that is so NOT me!!! It got to the point where the Big Boober would walk in the door after a day of work and see me in my robe.....and ask if I just decided not to bother getting dressed. Not only was I completely dressed, coiffed, washed, and brushed.....but I was also attired in my comfy and toasty warm robe.....and faux fur chinchilla booties! This freezing my ass off got so bad that the Big Boober started mentioning that I could probably better understand why my mother is always so cold. I've even gotten to the point where I find myself saying....."we could use a touch of heat." Holy moly.....but as far back as I can remember.....those have been my mother's exact words! This whole being cold thing is so foreign to me.....I can remember back to the days when I was a teen and always been hot-blooded! Now my fingers, toes, and nose are damn near blue from this new body temp that I'm sporting. I tell you.....but I can't even envision living another half century (yes, I plan on living to at least 100).....and being downright bloody cold!
So I guess it's official.....I'm my mother's daughter.....chilled to the bone!
