Hmpfft

Mural taken 2024 in Perth, speeding by with Ingo.

I´m "swimming". ESE really wants me back.
mM maybe too.....

Waiting is not my thing.
Also I´m burning. Chest, face, arms.... after over 30 years I let go of "the pill" and I BURN.
Did that in consultation with my doctor... think she has no idea herself? I should´ve waited till winter...
And I need to proof I can study.

This mural-lady has no "eyes" and I feel the same.
 
This is for Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals.


"Germany to scare: 30 ruins of days long gone
 
 
Landscape Park, Duisburg, North Rhine-Westphalia

Duisburg's Landscape Park was once an iron and steelworks, established in 1901. When demand for steel declined, the plant was abandoned after 84 years of operation. The ominous metalworks creaked abandoned in the wind until someone came up with the idea of renovating the site and transforming it into a unique urban park.

At night, the intricate shapes and fascinating angles of the industrial complex are now illuminated by neon lights. The Landscape Park, where you can see blast furnaces, bunkers, and other sights, is open year-round.

Never seen that mural, but looks a bit creepy... The Duisburg park looks interesting, at night at least with all the different light colours. Hope you feel better soon Iris. Once in my child-bearing age I started a new pill that made me itch from the neck all the way to my feet! The Dr had never heard of it and wasn't keen that I stop taking it, but I did and it took 2 weeks before the itchiness went away! Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.

Henry looks ready for a party, Iris.

Trust me, Iris, you wouldn't want to have the surgery unless you absolutely had to. It took me a year to feel like myself again.

Bill said...

Henry's world is very colourful.

I don't think that mural looks creepy at all. she is beautiful.

Oh no, burning? Why? Hormone imbalance? Or...what? Such a bummer.

I like what they did with those old buildings. Very clever!

That is a cool park. I think that's a great way to recycle an old factory. Hope it was a good Monday. hugs-Erika

I also had the early hysterectomy, but later still had the hot flashes, because the ovaries were still there so the hormones still did what they are supposed to do. I remember sitting at home, then suddenlt stripping off clothes from the heat and a few minutes later putting them back on, for about six months, then a got a "crawling" feeling just under my skin, so my doctor prescribed "hormone replacement tablets" and they worked well. I was "normal" again for twenty years, then I stopped them. These days I still get a few hot flushes when I eat the wrong things, like ice cream or chocolate or have too many hot coffees. But the hormones are not to blame, it's my fatty liver and "hot" blood.

Hack!!!! No one told me about hysterectomy! Nearly 30 years.... Well, reckon now it does not matter anymore. I´m just also so TIRED! Thank you for being so open and honest!
