Woman with Butterfly Wings

So, if you are at a member at the forum you are noticing some changes.

First, the link is the same, but I did change the title to: Redefining Life: Life w/ PMDD Network, I think it is more fitting for a PMDD forum.  This is a PMDD network and the only one of its kind, so we should be very proud. :)

Also, I have been taking notes and ‘trying’ to get started on my first PMDD book, not an ebook, but book which is going be more like my life story from start to finish with my life with PMDD.  I posted how excited I am that I got thru the first page, just a start, but a start. :)  and the title is Redefining Life.  I believe with PMDD you are constantly having to redefine your life.  When you realize you have PMDD you have to redefine the way you do things, when you can do things, etc…
Once you get used to that, with or without meds, a lot of times PMDD throws you a few curve balls and yet another redefining moment comes along.

Next, for some peri-menopause, menopause, or surgery induced menopause hits and of course, another redefining moment.

I just felt that this title fit all of us 100% and I hope you all agree too.

***UPDATE*** 6/15/09
Well, I don’t know if it’s the cramps or the bad mood, or what… but the pic is on my nerves.  It’s not what I want and that of course pisses me off more than it should (good ole’ PMDD) :)  Anyway, I went back to what I love and that is the turquoise color, left it at that and am stopping the over analyzing.

So, the pic is gone!

Now, onto the butterfly pic… I have wanted to find the perfect butterfly picture, my hopes were for the blue morpho butterfly because the color for ovarian cancer is turquoise and the blue morpho is that blue-turquoise color, depending on which pic you look at.  Now, obviously PMDD is not cancer, but our hormones are definitely affected by our ovaries so I thought using the color was perfect.

During my search which has been going on for so long I can’t even remember, that’s why the header of this blog is so plain, I came across this pic today.  A huge thank you to someone on photobucket.com.  I love the thought of the butterfly for PMDD because for me to have wings and just fly FREE, without pain, worry, PMDD (all of it) is a dream come true.  Sometimes when I am having those days when just everything seems to just over-take me, or go wrong, I can just sit outside and literally just drift away, think about a butterfly.  Corny?  Probably! but I love it!

Back to the pic.  When I came across this pic of the Woman with wings, it was perfect.  I just felt it!  It wasn’t over-done, not an overly sexy butterfly Woman pic like so many of them are, it was like it was done for this site.

Also, if you don’t upload your own profile pic to the forum (the network forum: www.lifewpmdd.ning.com, then this pic will be uploaded until you add your own.

If you need help adding your own pic, just shout. :)

I hope you guys love the changes as much as I do!  I can’t wait to get the site header fixed up now!
