Well, time for Creative Clara to be honest (as Baggy promised she would be), about how the menopause has been affecting Baggy. Clever Bird could just use one word here: badly! Today was a bit of a classic. A solicitor called to speak to Baggy about the "dispute" over the ownership of the garden of her Dad's house. She seemed quite positive about it all, unlike previous conversations with other solicitors from the same practise. She said she needed as much evidence as Baggy could find about how long the garden had been enclosed. Now Baggy had done all of this four years ago, including getting photos together. But could she find them? Could she heck! Hormonal Hannah got her into more and more of a state over it. In the end she lost her temper and gave up looking. She had just decided that maybe they were in one of the crates in the shed, and Calum (who was home for the afternoon) had offered to help her look, when Psychic Ploppo merrily grabbed a file on the spare chair. Yes, bloggees, it was the one that she had just spent the previous hour searching for. So, how did Baggy react? Lots of whooping with joy; laughter; relief? Nope, she burst into hysterical sobs and couldn't stop crying. The more she tried not to cry, the worse she got. The nicer Calum was to her, the more upset she became.
When Baggy tried to figure out why, Clever Bird realised that it was because she just feels overwhelmed by it all. Hormonal Hannah has kicked her confidence so far into touch, that she doesn't think she is capable of sorting out the issue. Mind you that's not as irrational as it sounds considering that during the search, she found an invoice already paid to the solicitor for over £1,200 for this to be sorted three years ago! At that time they said the exact opposite of what the lady said today! However, Baggy is going to trust that the new lady might be right and pray that it doesn't cost thousands more; as she seems to think that there is a good argument in Baggy's favour. But all Hormonal Hannah can think is a) that she can't cope and b) that her Dad would be horrified that she's having to deal with it. Even typing that has got Hannah so worked up that Baggy is now literally the colour of a beetroot and shiny with sweat. At least Baggy's appointment to see the Doctor about taming Hannah is fairly soon..........
