I was going to send in a suggestion...but I can't remember what it was :) LOL!!

Everyone around you is freezing cold, you have your personal fan turned on to turbo cool.

You have to write post-it notes with your kids' names on them.

You have to change your underwear after a sneeze.

You don't know whether to laugh or cry, sometimes you do both!

** Send in yours and I'll add it here with a link to your website or favorite lens. :)

Q: How many women with MENOPAUSE does it take to change a light bulb?

A: One! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY? Because no one else in this house knows HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know that the bulb is BURNED OUT!! They would sit in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out. And, once they figured it out, they wouldn't be able to find the light bulbs despite the fact that they've been in the SAME CUPBOARD for the past 17 YEARS! But if they did, by some miracle of God, actually find them 2 DAYS LATER, the chair they dragged to stand on to change the STUPID light bulb would STILL BE IN THE SAME SPOT!!!!! AND UNDERNEATH IT WOULD BE THE WRAPPER THE STUPID LIGHT BULBS CAME IN!!! BECAUSE NO ONE EVER CARRIES OUT THE GARBAGE!!!! IT'S A WONDER WE HAVEN'T ALL SUFFOCATED FROM THE PILES OF GARBAGE THAT ARE A FOOT DEEP THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE HOUSE!! IT WOULD TAKE AN ARMY TO CLEAN THIS HOUSE!

I'm sorry.... What was the question?

From a Minnie Pauz reader

Wild Chimpanzees Appear Not To Regularly Experience Menopause? OMG! What about ME! Does it matter to these scientist's that I AM experiencing menopause? Not to mention all my sister girlfriends! Like I said...What about US?

All kidding aside this is a great article!

Laughter, along with an active sense of humor, may help protect you against a heart attack, according to a recent study by cardiologists at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore.

You forgot where you put your car keys, so you start looking for them and happen upon a dusty shelf, on your way to get the duster you spot your keys on the kitchen windowsill, knowing you'll be late for your appointment you dash out to the car because you found your keys! On your way home you remember the dusty shelf and make a mental note to take care of that the minute you walk in the door. When you get home the pets, kids and husband are there to greet you...all looking rather hungry so you get something going on the stove for dinner. A week later the shelf still sits dusty :-o

I'm trying very hard to understand this generation. They have adjusted the timetable for childbearing so that menopause and teaching a sixteen-year-old how to drive a car will occur in the same week. Erma Bombeck

Male menopause is a lot more fun than female menopause. With female menopause you gain weight and get hot flashes. Male menopause - you get to date young girls and drive motorcycles. Rita Rudner

There is much to be said for post-menopausal celibacy. Sex is rough on loners because you have to have somebody else around, but now I don't. No more diets to stay slim and desirable: I've had sex and I've had food, and I'd rather eat. Florence King

My husband, being unhappy with my mood swings, bought me a mood ring the other day so he would be able to monitor my moods. We've discovered that when I'm in a good mood it, turns green and when I'm in a bad mood, it leaves a big red mark on his forehead!!

Next time he'll buy me a diamond...duh!!

Thanks to mulberry for e-mailing me this great add!

A Laugh a Day Keeps the Doctor Away? "If on Thursday evenings you find yourself glued to the television laughing hysterically for the entire thirty minutes of the Friends episode, you may be doing more than just being entertained; you may be doing your health a favor." Full article

Laughter stimulates both sides of the brain to enhance learning. It eases muscle tension and psychological stress, which keeps the brain alert and allows people to retain more information.
