PMS warning . . . .

Mark swears I have terrible PMS.   He said when we were first married and did not have the kids he used the mushroom defense.  He stayed real still and in the dark out of sight.  Then he said when Jack was born and starting to walk and be more mobile  he played the Jurassic Park defense.  That was when he stayed real still and did not make a move and let poor little Jack fall into the radar and then he would quietly sneak away.  I laugh about all this now but I must say I did have a problem.  I went to my doctor and told her that I wanted to scream just hearing the dog walk across the hard wood floor.  She wanted to prescribe medication for me of course.  I also talked with my sister and she said I should go to the gym.  I took my sisters advice over the doctors.   I found that on most days when I went to the gym I did feel much better and did not seem to get as aggravated at everyone for the littlest of things.   My niece says PMS stands for "prepare my shotgun."  HA HA!!  I liked that one.  I always said it stood for "putting up with mens' s*^+."  Well you get the picture.  My niece also says that everything that goes wrong with a woman starts with "men."  Menopause, menstruation, mental illness ect. . .  That girl is wise beyond her years.  
Oh, and Mark and I have been married 18 years in April.  HA HA HA!!  So PMS does not kill you.

I don't usually have it too bad but every now and then everyone will annoy the crap out of me...just last month I yelled out, "WHY IS EVERYONE ALL UP IN MY GRILL?????"

That is funny. I have always had it but I think it has gotten worse with age. As long as I can burn my energy I am ok, but woe be to the one that crosses my path when I have not been to the gym.
