I sometimes wonder who has to pay for this the most, you women, or us men.  LOL Well done, Lyra. So nice to see you posting. *hugs*Michael |

cracking up here--I think I have ONE normal week per cycle. I estimate that gives me approximately 3.5 months out of the year of sanity. Once? When when I got that "monthly visitor?" I could have sworn I heard the neighbors applaud! Thanks for the chuckle, Madame C--as my family eyes the calendar with caution! |

 (big hugggsssssss) Oh Lyra, I know this feeling so very much, sweet friend, my sister has been experiencing some of this pain lately and I always wish that I felt that same pain so I can sympathize with her better, though when I hug her and try comforting her she says that's all she needs! (sigh) This is a beautifully compassionate poem, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lyra, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

My ex-wife had that malady. It moved that gal to tears. Forget that once a month routine.. Hers lasted fifteen years!!  Great poem, Madame C! |

Thanks so much, Sy... I'm glad you enjoyed Sunny...thanks for your reply, Its always better to make fun of something than to take it seriously Thanks Sue...I'm glad I re-posted it also... Devina's poem, "Just Sedate Me" was the inspiration for the re-post. Michael(Auguste)...At the risk of sounding like a feminist bitch, I invite you to actually HAVE pms for a week and then you will know, that it is much much worse for a woman than for her husband. Men think they have to "put up" with us during this time....but you really have no idea how horrible we feel.  Karen...thanks for your reply. I bet they did applaud! Of course when the monthly visitor comes, it brings it's own problems with it, so between the 2...I would say that women have gotten a pretty raw deal. Julie...Thanks, I think most of us do. A week is just a round number. Karilea...thanks so much for that compliment. But what am I advertising here? I think that no matter how hard you advertise the red rage, very few people (men or women) would be actually willing to pay money for it...LOL  devina...thanks for the reply and also for being the inspiration for the re-post Noah...Thank you...You are such a sensitive young man to want to feel your sister's pain for her. Jeff...Women only do this once a month and there is a very good reason for it....I have known men who act like this all of the time Michael(Balladeer)...thanks for your reply Your poor ex-wife....Oh how she must have suffered. I'm glad you enjoyed the poem. Donna...thanks for replying. I don't know about once a day....maybe once an hour  Thanks Martie...I appreciate the big hug and I think all of us can relate to this one, except the men. They see it from the other side. The key word here, being "see" they see it but they don't FEEL it. Keth...thanks so much for stopping by and replying...I love the "post man sloth: LOL ~ big hugs to all Lyra |
