One of the best things about menopause is that I am so warm all of the time that it saves on electricity. Actually other than the whisker thing, I embraced the menopause thing.

I had what I called a blah look, like there was no life in my eyes . I looked at myself in the mirror and couldn't figure it out until my sister pointed it out one day. Then I was told," Wait until you hit 50!!" The facial hair thing for me didn't start until I was about 65. It isn"t bad, , but it's there. I just shave that little mustach when necessary, and also the peach fuzz ids clipped close with scisdsors. It doesn"t grow back dark and stiff like a man's does. I tried the creams, but it caused me to have a bad rash, so that was out! But isnt life great? And where else can I find so many "sisters" to laugh about growing old with? I wish we could throw a big party and spend time together. People would probably look at us and think we were a bunch of crazy old ladies !!

I had no idea it was that bad! I bought a little wax kit from WalMart and just do it myself. It only cost a few dollars and it paid for itself the very first time I used it.
