Wow, my lovely friend, you are all over the place – in a wonderful way. This sounds like a great read and something that I can well relate to. I was thrown into menopause with a course of high-dose steroids and a side of chemotherapeutic drugs. I had hot flashes before that happened, and let me tell you sister, this was no fun at all. At all!! <br /> This book sounds like a great read and something that will put me in a great headspace. The fact that you are part of this book gives me even more reason to want to read it. Wishing you calm days ahead with plenty of breeze...<br />❤️❤️❤️<br />Elle <br />https://theellediaries.com/The Elle Diarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10352057220124245797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859347726001714274.post-34777261423043700302018-05-03T21:53:56.283-07:002018-05-03T21:53:56.283-07:00Will reading this book make me crave a refreshing ...Will reading this book make me crave a refreshing hot flash?

Yikes. Even with that freudian slip, I'd rather read Margot's book. I'm in my late-40s but it seems like a good companion to take into my 50s. <br /><br />Also, are you a Trekkie too???
