Yes, Cathy, it is normal.  For the matter of fact, it is common when a woman is in perimenopause that her periods may get closer before they begin to get farther apart and then skip months.  Bleeding for some women gets heavier, for others lighter.  Others may have breakthrough spotting during the cycle.  Women may also find they have more cramping and possibly also more clotting.  These changes are especially related to the progesterone levels declining as you approach menopause.
