My wife has been going through "the change of life" for 25 years. Yes , TWENTY FIVE YEARS! It is better than it was in the beginning, I had to hide all of the knives in those days. She would threaten my life with the smallest disagreement. Her mood has change the last two years, and I have learned how to deal with it and manipulate the situation. My kids think it is humorous, but they are out of the house for years with their own families.
