Shampoo, Salad, and Menopausal Meltdown: A Supermarket Saga

Updated: May 11

Join me on a journey through the whirlwind of emotions as I recount the tale of shampoo shortages, salad surprises, and the tumultuous world of menopausal mood swings.


It began with a routine trip to the supermarket, where my better half embarked on a simple mission: procure shampoo and salad for our impending barbecue. However, fate had other plans in store. Instead of shampoo, he returned with a bag of gem lettuce – an unexpected addition to our shopping list.


As I stared at the bewildering greens, his innocent remark pierced through the confusion: "Well, you should specify what you wanted." But bagged salad was always a staple in our household, or so I thought.


After 15 years together, frustration and tears welled up within me. When had I ever requested gem lettuce? It seemed like an absurd deviation from our usual routine.


In that moment, a surge of frustration coursed through me, fueled by my partner's innocent suggestion. The absurdity of the situation hit me like a ton of bricks, igniting a storm of anger and disbelief. With tears welling in my eyes, I sought refuge upstairs, seeking solace from the chaos below.


Alone in my bedroom, I allowed the tears to flow freely, a cocktail of emotions swirling within me – anger, frustration, and sheer disbelief.


Who would have thought that a simple shopping mishap could trigger such a torrent of emotions?


Yet, amidst the turmoil, I found a sense of catharsis in the release. In the unpredictable sea of menopausal mood swings, sometimes the only way out is through – even if it means shedding tears over a bag of lettuce.


But the drama didn't end there. The missing shampoo added insult to injury, escalating the situation into a comedic catastrophe of epic proportions, amplified by the rollercoaster ride of menopause.


As I navigate this saga, still reeling from the lettuce debacle, I'm reminded that in the world of menopausal mayhem, every moment is an adventure waiting to unfold – even if it involves unexpected lettuce varieties and missing shampoo.


Onwards and upwards 🙌
