For the most part I've kept off weight I've lost in the past two years. I have a granddaughter on the way in late June and I have a trip planned up to Alaska around that time. Work is busy, but not stressful/scary busy like the previous 2 years of COVID hell.

I love the costumes and all, but I can't help but feel sad because that age was comprised of the "haves" and "have nots". There was no middle class and most have nots lived in abject poverty and in appalling living conditions.

1. Ditto what sparky said: I totally went all out with the CPR until the paramedics arrived; 2. Charlotte stating she "was in menopause after 4 months" is BS: menopause has to be full 12 months to be declared post-menopausal; 3. I loved the dress and gloves Carrie wore in Paris when she dumped Big off the bridge.

It hurts so much. It's like wave after wave. Like the ocean waves, it's best to face it head-on, but golly...it hurts so bad. I'm glad you have the support of family and friends. Love you, dear friend!

I cleaned out my freezer recently. Had a lot of bags of food so I advertised on the "Buy Nothing" FB and someone picked up all the bags from my front porch. So satisfying!

FYI: Menopause is the time frame when you go without a period for a full year. After that, you're considered post-menopausal. For me I was 50.
I'm fortunate--after that full year, I rarely had hot flashes. I do know of women who have them for years. Another cool thing about PM: no mood swings. If I'm grumpy, it's because I'm grumpy and not because of hormonal fluctuations. lol

My first inkling of perimenopause was waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to go back to sleep. I'd also get super hot, but in hindsight it wasn't actually hot flashes--probably just a precursor.
After that eventually came the horrible cramping (and what seemed like major blood loss from the flow) from periods--one time I almost passed out driving home from work because it was so bad.

I'm 62. Mom did periodically work outside the home, but she was brought up in an era where the woman stayed at home and that's what she wanted, but she had to work due to the family finances. After my little sister was born when I was 10, she became a permanent stay-at-home mom.
When my little sis was 7, my parents divorced. When she married my step dad, she stayed a non-working mom for the rest of her life.

I remember literally nothing from that season 3 recap. I didn't even remember some of the names. Sometimes Netflix will have a preseason episode recap. Hopefully they do for this because right now I don't have time to rewatch season 3. That is unless I have one of my insomnia periods where I'm awake 36 straight hours
There is a great recap--I'm glad I watched it--helped a lot.

January is a tough month to get motivated for exercise. Try not to stress over your lack of motivation--maybe in February or March you'll feel more motivated?

Haven't read the book yet, but I will now based on the comments.
Watched the entire season. Loved it! It has such a delightfully different script than a lot of apocalyptic movies I've seen. And I liked the 3 or more concurrent story lines. Plus I liked the music--particularly the song at the closing of the final episode by the Brotherhood of Man. It's always been one of my faves since I was 10.

I, too, was "fer gawd's sake, Carrie, DO SOMETHING!" I totally get freezing when she first spots Big, but running to hug him, whuuuuut? But I identified with Carrie's post-death emotions/actions. The empty pillow on her bed really got me going.
Also I get why she was pissed at him after he's gone. He was pretty rotten to her during their courtship. Even with all the "good years", I'll bet she still didn't completely trust him deep inside.

It's a pet theory of mine that our planet will ultimately be wiped out by a meteor, because let's face it...it's happened before. There has been more than one mass extinction on this ol' big blue marble. I believe that climate changes will wreak havoc on the world but we will still survive/adapt in misery. It'll take a meteor to make final work of us as a species.

I liked the fact that Dr. Mindy changed his ways and did not die alone as his "algorithms" had predicted; not so much for the Prez who was eaten by the Brontaroc.
