April has been an exciting month for me. I have just started a new job as a housekeeper and as you’ll know, I’ve recently been to Budapest to celebrate my partner’s 60th.
He has just realised he’s entitled to free prescriptions. However, this might not last very long because the UK government may stop this.

If you’re struggling with menopause symptoms or guys, your wives/partners are, then, these next two posts have some suggestions that may help. The first is about my experience with the perimenopause and the second is about how I cope with hot flushes. This particular post features a lovely, flattering photo of me with frizzy hair and a pink and sweaty face; it’s worth checking out just to see that!

Next month, I will be raising awareness about osteoporosis and coeliac disease.
