Menopause Moment |

Part 5 – Humor Edition

Scene:

It’s 9:47 PM.
She’s finally in bed after wrestling with fitted sheets, finding her readers, and arguing with the dog about who gets the blanket.

 

She reaches for the mood lighting app.

Romantic? ✅
Soft glow? ✅
Accidentally hits “strobe light”? ✅✅✅

 

He walks in holding Tums and a heating pad.
She’s wearing her “spicy” sleep tank… with compression socks.
Both of them stare.
Then burst out laughing.

 

Because sometimes “foreplay” at this age means making it through the week and still wanting to share a bed... and a laugh.

💡 Real Talk Tip:

Don’t force the fire — find the funny.
Rediscovering intimacy post-40 isn’t about “getting it back” — it’s about getting real, socks and all.
