Period

Wow. I didn’t realize that it’s been a whole week since I updated my blog! Time really does fly by when you’re busy.

My mother must have been terribly bored today. I got an email from her this morning with the following information:

On November 13, 1988 I got my period for the first time. (Which means I’ve had my period for over 20 years. Isn’t that enough?!?!)
On January 22, 1988 I got my first pair of glasses. (Had Lasik eye surgery in 2004 – thank heavens!)
On May 7, 1989 I was confirmed.
That is some useful information. It was kind of fun to get that information though. Can you imagine all the money I’d have if I didn’t have to buy 20+ years of pads & tampons!!! Okay, I just figured it up & I would have saved at LEAST $1008.00 if I hadn’t bought them. Maybe I should have just constructed a hut to go sit in for a week each month & just let it flow like you read about in the books like “The Red Tent”. Ew. That would be pretty gross! But it’s something to think about….
