My peeps, this one is inspired by finally starting therapy again and realizing, again, that I have “porous boundaries.” That is, no boundaries. I have a lot of work to do 😅🤪🫣🤦‍♀️ #haikuaday #orwhenever #haikuhive #lazybee

JenlovesJT47 Can totally relate to this ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 3mo
CBee @JenlovesJT47 it‘s so hard! I‘ve never really done the work and I really have to do the work now. It‘s exhausting, you know? 3mo

dabbe First, you are not alone. Second, no shame in this at all--no face-palming, m'dear! You sought help; you have an expert who can help you, and you have us to listen and support. Your hubby's pretty fantastic, too! Fill those porous wall leaks one hole at a time. I believe in you. #BUSYbee 🖤🐝🖤 3mo
TheBookHippie Once you do the work it‘s so very worth it. I‘m cheering for you! ♥️ 3mo
CBee @dabbe @TheBookHippie love you lovelies ♥️♥️♥️ 3mo

CBee @Sapphire thank you! I hope you‘ve been well ♥️ 3mo
kspenmoll Hang in there- 💕💕 3mo
Eggbeater Good for you! I think everyone could benefit from therapy. It is something people do when they want to live a healthy lifestyle. A lot of us have issues with boundaries. 3mo
AmyG Huzzah! Therapy can be a gift you give yourself. 👊🏻 3mo
JenlovesJT47 Yes. I need therapy myself and I know it‘s hard. You got this!! 🤗 3mo

Humidity, anyone? Anyone? Bueller? I hate summer right now 🥵😂 #haikuhive #haikuaday

JenlovesJT47 Ugh right there with you in Florida! It‘s midnight and it is still so ridiculously hot and humid 🥵 3mo
dabbe Dare I say that after seeing 93% humidity right now in Alabama that I just MIGHT be okay with 116 degrees here? Might. W🥵WZA for your words and weather! 🖤🐝🖤 3mo

Blueberry One thing I love about California is the lack of humidity. 3mo
AnnCrystal Oh my! 🙏🏼🐝💝. 3mo
Itchyfeetreader Gosh I can‘t imagine that stickiness ! 3mo
CBee @dabbe I‘d rather the dry heat any day! Honestly though, I just wish I lived somewhere more temperate. This is bonkers 🥵🫣😂 3mo
CBee @JenlovesJT47 you know what I‘m saying then! So gross 🥵🤪 3mo
CBee @Blueberry I worked in Yosemite for a summer years and years ago. The heat was totally bearable compared to here! 3mo
Eggs I concur, y‘all on the humid heat- it gunks up my lungs, makes me short of breath, headaches! Beautiful haiku!! 3mo
dabbe @CBee 🎯🩵🎯 3mo
JenlovesJT47 I‘ve lived in central Florida my whole life, minus 2 years I went to college in California. We were near LA out in the desert. 30 mph winds every day. Would get in the 100s. Dry heat but still. As far as I‘m concerned, hot is hot is hot! But the humidity just adds a little extra blech to it 😆 3mo
CBee @JenlovesJT47 oh yeah, hot is definitely hot and I‘m not fond, but humidity can kiss my grits 😂🥵 3mo
CBee @Eggs same!! And thank you ♥️ (edited) 3mo
lil1inblue I feel this one. Oof! 💙 3mo
DebinHawaii Yep—I can totally relate. Not a humidity fan at all. 😓 3mo

Me today. Luckily, it all happened in close proximity and it‘s been a less klutzy day since then 😂🤪 #haikuhive #haikuaday

TheBookHippie Menopause=more clumsiness 😵‍💫🫣🤦🏻‍♀️ 3mo
CBee @TheBookHippie so funny you commented because 1) this is so true, and 2) I looked up klutz and it comes from the Yiddish word “klots” 😁 3mo

dabbe Are you just starting menopause, you young thing, you? (quite a person question to ask publicly, but I couldn't resist!) If so, boy are you in for some rollercoaster rides! 🤣😍🤣

P.S. Your words make me giggle but also want to send you a 🤗. #atthesametime! 😍
3mo
AmyG I come from a long line of klutzy women. I‘m sorry. Life is hard. (edited) 3mo
CBee @dabbe I‘ve been in perimenopause for probably five years now. And nobody EVER prepared me for this dumpster fire!! My body is betraying me, I swear …. But I‘m glad to make you laugh. Gotta do that to keep from crying (or not. Cause crying is just a daily thing now apparently 🤪). (edited) 3mo
CBee @AmyG that it is, my friend 🤪😬😂 3mo
kezzlou85 @TheBookHippie oh my gosh if menopause makes you clumsier I'm in trouble. I'm so clumsy already. 3mo
JenlovesJT47 My inner klutz and I are very well acquainted 😆 all the women in my family suffer from this affliction. Sending hugs 🫂💛🐝🖤 3mo
AnnCrystal I was born a klutz 👏🏼🐝👍🏼😂🐝💝. 3mo
lil1inblue I feel this! 😂 💛 🐝 💛 3mo
dabbe @CBee What the hell does “quite a person question“ mean? This English teacher has gotten lazy! 🤣 Oh, I feel for you! Luckily, my hysterectomy two years ago got rid of all that crap. Matt was a real trooper, too--especially when the crying jags would come out of nowhere. 🤣🥵😍 3mo
CBee @dabbe @JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal @lil1inblue @TheBookHippie @AmyG @kezzlou85 just to give y‘all a rundown of what happened in less than an hour yesterday morning: I sliced my finger, almost over flowed the toilet, and oh heck, I don‘t even remember the third thing 😂😂😂 3mo
CBee @dabbe I knew what you meant 😁 3mo
TheBookHippie @kezzlou85 It‘s a whole shit show. 3mo
CBee @TheBookHippie a shit show dumpster fire 🤪🤪😂😂 3mo
TheBookHippie @CBee and no research. The little bit we had got gutted. 3mo
CBee @TheBookHippie I knew nothing until it started happening to me. There is a lot more info now, real info that isn‘t backed by studies that have been debunked and all. 3mo
TheBookHippie @CBee I think we should gather symptoms from each other and make a book. 3mo
TheBookHippie Also I just knocked my water over.. 3mo
dabbe @TheBookHippie Can I join in? 🙋‍♀️ 3mo
TheBookHippie @dabbe we need a comprehensive list and then mail it out to each other 🤣🤷🏻‍♀️🫣😵‍💫🤦🏻‍♀️ 3mo
JenlovesJT47 This comment section is hilarious, where‘s my popcorn? 🍿😆 3mo
lil1inblue @CBee Also been in perimenopause for the last five years. It took 2 before I realized what was happening. It's so awful and WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME!!!!! (Side note, I now understand why my grandmother and her sisters all had children in their 40s 😂 😜) 3mo
AnnCrystal @CBee 😳🙏🏼😂🤐😉💝💝💝. 3mo
kezzlou85 @TheBookHippie thank you for this. It was really interesting to read. I have been wondering if I might be heading for perimenopause. 3mo
dabbe @lil1inblue @CBee @TheBookHippie I swear during my first hot flash, where you literally break out in an instant sweat EVERYWHERE, I thought I was having a heart attack. And a panic attack. Everything Everywhere All at Once! 🤣 3mo
dabbe @JenlovesJT47 Just you wait, sassy lassie! 🤣 3mo
TheBookHippie @lil1inblue I had a menopause baby! 3mo
TheBookHippie @kezzlou85 I swear you think you‘re insane and then realise it‘s menopause. And no one told you. 3mo
TheBookHippie @dabbe OMG THE HEAT in the middle of the night SO AWFUL. I could fry an egg on myself. FYI Uterus pulled in 2009 😵‍💫🫣 left one ovary. 3mo
lil1inblue @TheBookHippie My mom was a menopause baby. Her sisters weren't allowed to tell anyone my grandma was pregnant because my grandma didn't want anyone to know she still had S. E. X. And then, all 3 of her sisters had menopause babies, too. 🤣🤣🤣 Those hormones go crazy in more ways than one! 3mo
lil1inblue @dabbe I woke up one random morning literally drenched in sweat. It was early in the pandemic, so I started freaking out that I had a fever, and my anxiety took over from there. 3mo
dabbe @TheBookHippie That's right, you did! 😳😲🤩 3mo
dabbe @TheBookHippie They took everything. My ovaries were never any use to me anyway--except to make the female “stuff“ a pain in the ass--I mean vagina! 🤣 3mo
dabbe @lil1inblue Amen, sista! And your grandma sounds like a hoot! 😍 3mo
dabbe @lil1inblue You literally have no friggin' idea what is happening to you! It's like you're not even a part of your body, and it's betraying you! 3mo
CBee @TheBookHippie oh no 😂😂😂 I spill something on the daily, I think 🤪🤪 3mo
CBee @TheBookHippie @dabbe I‘m down! Let‘s start a menopause letter writing thing. 3mo
CBee @lil1inblue nobody told me. I was gobsmacked. Still am to be honest. I remember my mom having crazy hot flashes and moodiness - but she was always emotional and prone to moodiness like me! Didn‘t think it was anything different. NOW I KNOW 🤦‍♀️🙄😅😬😂 3mo
CBee @lil1inblue two words: tubal ligation. I had two kiddos and that was it. I couldn‘t even imagine having one now 😳😳 3mo
CBee @dabbe 😂😂😂😂 3mo
CBee @kezzlou85 the menopause sub on Reddit has been AMAZING for me. So helpful and informative. And lots of support from ladies going through the same! 3mo
kezzlou85 @TheBookHippie that makes sense. So many things you just assume are something else and then start to wonder if maybe it's not 3mo
kezzlou85 @CBee thank you I will check that out. 3mo
TheBookHippie @CBee they told me I‘d never have children. They lied 🤣🙃. 3mo
CBee @TheBookHippie they had no idea 😂😂 3mo
dabbe @TheBookHippie Like the force of nature that you are, you proved them WRONG! 😍🤩😘 3mo
DebinHawaii Love this! Can totally relate! 😂😂😂 3mo

Just a haiku inspired by the constant commercials for different medications. It could help you, or even cure you, but watch out for the crazy amount of side effects including death. It‘s wild 🤦‍♀️😅😮 #haikuaday #haikuhive

AmyG Ha, yes….we always chuckle that death could be a side effect. And don‘t take if you are allergic…duh. And…how many times have those stupid jingles gotten stuck in your head? 🤣 4mo
TheSpineView So true. 💛🐝💛 4mo

JenlovesJT47 Side effects include things that are worse than what you are taking the medication for, including death💀😆. This is funny and so true. 💛🐝🖤 4mo
CBee @AmyG oh my gosh, too many times to count - it drives me crazy!!! And it isn‘t just one jingle - there are so many 🤪😅😂 4mo
CBee @JenlovesJT47 exactly! Like, this will help you! Unless you die 😂😅🤦‍♀️ 4mo
AnnCrystal I know! Crazy ridiculous. How is that medicine? 👏🏼🐝🙏🏼☠️⚕️☣️🐝💝. 4mo
Eggs I love this! The medicated people frolicking outdoors 🎶 while the announcer‘s voice gets fast and low and the side effects are shown in microscopic print at the bottom!#!*%$!! 4mo
CBee @Eggs exactly! Especially the ones for things like Crohn‘s and anything stomach related - they‘re rock climbing and riding roller coasters! It‘s a miracle 😂😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ 4mo

The song “Wolf,” by First Aid Kit, has been in my head this morning, prompting this haiku. Including the link (in comments) for that song plus another I love by Brandi Carlile (Mama Werewolf). #haikuaday #haikuhive

CBee @CSeydel oh Carrie 😢 I‘m so sorry. I agree it feels like no time at all. May is a low month for me as well, Mother‘s Day, then the anniversary of her death, so I get it. I do hope you can find peace somehow even though you weren‘t on good terms ♥️♥️ 4mo
