- It has recently come to my attention that humans are the only species whose females go through menopause. Now I have something to occupy my thoughts during night sweats.
- An indigo bunting landed on the walking path a few feet in front of me one morning this week. How beautiful must be the Creator of such beauty.
- The percentage of senior citizen bank robbers is on the rise. Good news for those with the bucket list line item “live a life of crime.”
What’s the most surprising item on your bucket list?

- Hiram and I were bummed that we had to stay in Iowa rather than go to Family Camp in Idaho’s panhandle last week. But we were delighted when Mother Nature brought mountain air and weather to us for the entire week.
- Over the past week, our supper menus have consisted of smoked turkey and sweet corn, BLTs and sweet corn, and grilled chicken breasts with sweet corn. One night we had sweet corn and sweet corn. Hmm…can you see a theme developing?
- Did you know the government is working on anti-survelliance clothing that masks a person’s body heat? If they can do that, shouldn’t they be able to eliminate hot flashes in women going through menopause?
What are you eating with sweet corn this week?

Since this week began with a smokin’ episode of Downton Abbey and moved on to Valentine’s Day, it’s no wonder this Thursday’s three thoughts include love triangles. But as for the fixations with hot flashes and Pinterest, I have no idea of their origin.
- The minute Lavinia Swire walked into Downton Abbey, she was the doomed member of the love triangle. In our family, we call it the “Bonanza” principle. It’s named after the 1960s – 70s TV western series where beautiful, female guest stars always died. How about you? Did you see it coming?
- If a picture is worth 1000 words, is there any place on Pinterest for writers?
- If women in their 50s were in charge of utilities companies, they would already have invented heat pumps that could be attached to menopausal, hot flashing women, thus alleviating human suffering and solving the energy crisis in one, fell swoop.
Now it’s your turn. Leave a comment about your Thursday thoughts, even if they don’t include Valentine’s Day, Downton Abbey, Pinterest, and hot flashes.
