		<description><![CDATA[At various stages of a woman&#8217;s life the question of cosmetic surgery rears its head.  For a long time now I&#8217;ve been on the fence as to whether or not that&#8217;s a smart choice.

		<description><![CDATA[Sleep Problems. Oh yeah, that’s another menopausal symptom. When you read about menopause you invariably read about the sleeping problems that go with the territory.

Not that I didn’t have my share of sleepless nights peri-peri-peri-menopause, but I never considered myself an insomniac.  And I think I know one reason for that.  When I was still getting [...]]]></description>
