Cute, but you will dash - away from fans after hot flashes pass leaving your skin and clothes so wet that you're now freezing, away to change out of wet clothes (often every 15 minutes) - don't be upset - not trying to rain on your monoku, it is quite cute but my menopause issues verbally jumped and I can't settle them back down, bad issues, bad - settle. Oh, Maureen do delete this ill behavior should you wish, I really am still lovable (did I mention clumps of hair can fall out?) ... CayCay
