If you're following along on Facebook, you know we're into week four of a one-week home touch up. And by touch up I mean tear down. And by tear down I mean breakdown. The bright spot here--the Tyvek lining if you will--is that Kerry at House Talkn finds the situation humorous. Actually, she makes it humorous. And we all need a laugh, don't we? Yes, we do. Oh, and she's giving a lucky reader a copy of my book. So why are you still reading this?  This is Kerry from House TalkN. She takes beautiful pictures of houses and hilarious pictures of herself. Go say hello. So much to tell you today. I’m too tired to think of a clever way to make this all seem organized, so let’s just call it a potpourri, shall we? (Isn’t it fun to say French words? Yes, delightful.) Triple-threat Stephanie (smart, funny, adorbs) at Crazy Meets Exhaustion is giving away a copy of my book. Even if you already have it, you’ll want to stop over to hear what she thinks about my husband haiku. Unrelated: Sorry, Honey! Here’s something I never expected to say: Please enjoy this recording of Patrick Stewart reading Plastic Surgery Haiku written by Amy Poehler. And (now wishing I had that clever theme because I really don’t want to say something cliché like “last but not least,” but c’est la vie), I’m over on NickMom showing you why parenting books don’t have realistic titles. Hint: The human race would become extinct. Bon jour, internet! 
 Click the picture to see the last line on NickMom, then tell me yours! Since it's the season of tricks and treats, I thought we'd have a little fun. Post your own 5-syllable last line for this NickMom Halloween haiku in the comments below. I'll pick out some of my favorites and send you a little treat--a Suburban Haiku magnet. (Hey, I said it was little.) If you don't comment, you get TP and shaving cream. In my mind. Show us what you got! 
Speaking of things that sneak up on you, I have a NickMom post dedicated to all of you who never dreamed you'd become a sports mom. I give you the handy dandy mom-to-sports mom translator. Good luck out there.
