Ramblings of a Menopausal, Gen-Xer with ADHD
All Aboard The Crazy Train!
Toot toot! The Menopausal Madness Express is leaving the station, with your favorite frazzled Gen X conductor at the helm. Buckle up, buttercup - it's going to be a wild ride through the tangled jungle of my ADHD-addled mind.
Today's itinerary includes (but is not limited to) such thrilling destinations as:
Hot Flash Mountain (bring a fan!)
The Valley of Lost Keys (and TV remotes, and phone chargers...)
Procrastination Station (we'll get there eventually)
Hyperfocus Tunnel (hope you packed snacks!)
So sit back, try to relax, and enjoy the scenic route through the absurdity that is life as a woman "of a certain age" with a brain that plays by its own rules. Just don't be surprised if we get a bit sidetracked along the way…
About Me
I am Jenna. A very proud member of the original FAFO generation, Gen X. Which puts me in the eye of the hormonal hurricane known as perimenopause. From hot flashes from Hades to bawling like a bish baby to a Downy commercial (true story) to cruising the Clearasil aisle at Walmart hunting for a remedy to the teenage acne flaring up like a phoenix from the ashes!
As if the universe hadn’t thrown enough into my cauldron, it grins and adds a sprinkle of ADHD into the mix. And just like that, PooF! Here I am! Unwilling to apologize for being unapologetically, Me.
You could say that I’m just a squirrel navigating the winding paths of life, clutching my acorns, and making the very best of this glorious chaos.
