More Out of Monday with Madeline♥
Welcome to my inaugural post! I’m Madeline - a healthfully humorous, radically ridiculous, momentarily messy broad here to give you a flicker of joy on the (in most cases) worst day of the week. I’ll try to give you, well, more out of your Monday with the useless stuff that women pour over when their brains are still checked out from the weekend. If you aren’t careful though, you might find a lesson or two between the lines.
So, let’s move on.
Monday is like…
…the new suit you bought on the Shopping Network; it arrives revealing that it looks just like the one that your Aunt Betty wore…to her funeral.
Now that we got that straight, let’s talk about the “A” word…no, not that “A” word, the other one… Aging.
For God’s sake, Girl, you have to get over it! I did.
Here are a few signs of the transition…gives you something to shoot for.
1. An AARP commercial comes on, and you actually watch it.
2. You proudly fill your grocery cart with a pair of $3.00 reading glasses, a Glucosamine supplement, Activia, More® magazine, and a Reader’s Digest®, foregoing the Seventeen® mag, french fries, and Midol…damn menopause.
3. You start sending your grown kids articles you’ve clipped from the Reader’s Digest®.
4. Your purse sounds like a Maraca when you pick it up from all of the NSAIDs, Tums, calcium sups, and M&Ms.
5. You call all of your living ancestors to ask them what major illnesses run in the family and then Google their answers to make sure you don’t have any symptoms.
Think of it this way: each day gets you closer to being the woman God dreamed up. Beautiful. Embrace aging like you do your Snuggie…you know you have one (or secretly want one); don’t deny it. Mine is leopard. Grrrrr….
