I'm safely post menopausal so I've been there, done it, gave away the extra boxes of tampons. I think this is the commercial of the year. The woman is such a deliberate exaggeration of the perfect 50's ideal. When she wields those garden tools with that demented look on her face, it's like Donna Reed had a few belts with Joan Crawford and this was the result.
If we cannot laugh at the normal, natural processes of life, especially in difficult times like these, we're not going to be equipped for what old age is going to bring us. And, as Bette Davis warned, "Old age is not for sissies." Better start smiling now.
