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? 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! 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.
