They leave as quickly as they arrive…
Unexpected and at the most inconvenient time…
Sometimes I think I must be the hottest person alive!
Amazing how one’s temperature can turn on a dime.
They come by day but more abundantly by night…
That’s when the stripping and fanning begin…
Throwing the covers back…what a sight!
My husband fighting to keep the blankets up, but I am the one who wins?
Feeling as though at any moment I could ignite like a match…
No other place on earth could be this hot…
Maybe an incubator waiting for eggs to hatch!
I feel like I am Queen of the Sahara…only I’m not!
Then the sweats, those terrible night sweats, sweat, sweat, sweat…
Hot then cold…it’s a regular roller coater ride…
Men have no clue…this is a sure to win bet!
Not only by night, by day in the middle of a crowd, with no place to hide!
How does one win this battle of heat?
One hot flash after the other…
I may as well face it…I’ve been beat!
And the worst part of all…I now sound just like my mother!
