February Statuses, Week Four + March 1st

Once again, I have deleted a name.  It was 3 syllables this time.


Feb 22nd
Shopped before coffee
Managed to stick to the list
Hooray! Free K-cups!

Wish all customers
Had read a copy of this
When I worked Helpdesk.
Link to Cracked article

Cell phone camera
Randomly started working
See Bubs' dirty shirt.

  
Feb 23rd
Every stinkin' day
I tell Facebook "Most Recent"
Screw your Top Stories!

Surprise for Grandma
Turns out Damon can climb stairs.
News to everyone!

Feb 24th
[Deleted] birthday!
Hope she has a happy day
Love, seestar, John, Bubs.

Feb 25th
Alarm so early
Saturday is spin class day
Please work soon, coffee

Hardest spin ever
Body feels like a noodle
Mmm green tea latte.

Feb 26th
BFF birthday!
Hope it is the best one ever!
Celebrate with wine!

Outside with the boys
John sure loves to go sledding!
Forgot camera.

Feb 27th
Only two more days
I can express myself with
ALL the syllables!

Damon loves Mater
Better get your hugs in quick.
Mater is John's toy.

Feb 28th
Hand-me-down jammies
John wants to wear them all day
Have McQueen on them.

Feb 29th
Two stir-crazy boys
Going to indoor playground
You want to join us?

Last day for haikus
If you want one just for you
Better speak up now.

Too many haikus
For single status update
Click on link below.
The link went to a Facebook note, where I had posted all the haikus.  They all have names, though, so I won't post them here.  I had a request for a summary of Haiku Month:

Haiku month over
Interesting, challenging
Mostly glad it's done. 

  
And here is a bonus:
March 1st
Welcome to March! No more haikus.
But you can write one of your own if you choose,
Try to say what you mean,
In syllables seventeen,
And you can name me as your muse.

Week One
Week Two
Week Three

February Statuses, Week Three

 I have deleted a name, as I try not to publish anyone's name, unless they are a part of my immediate family (husband, and two sons).  You will have to take my word for it that it is a two syllable name.

Feb 15th
House full of fuzzy
Only one crib, two babies,
Consecutive naps!

Feb 16th
I'm sore all over,
Many muscles muttering
Tough, great swim today.

Feb 17th
Bubs is the coolest
Harley Davidson shirt and
No pants. So stylin'!

John was too quiet
Went to see what he's doing
Hand in the butter.

I'm eating a pear
Hard to quietly enjoy
With two small mooches.

Feb 18th
Thank you, my husband
For watching 5 small children
So we could go spin.

I will take that, please.
Seriously, give it here!
Bubs' camera now.











  

Feb 19th
It's [deleted] Birthday!
Everybody celebrate!
Mochas and push-ups!

Feb 20th
Nine more days to go,
Then you won't have to look at
Any more haikus.

Out of sorts baby
Refuses to fall asleep
So overtired.

Feb 21st
Bubs attempts bear crawl
Instead of trying to walk
Try growing some teeth!

Ten months yesterday,
I swear that Bubs was just born.
Wow, time is flying.

Pancakes for dinner
Damon and John both approved.
Happy Mardi Gras!

Week Two
Week One

February Statuses, Week Two

Feb 8th
Breakfast tragedy
I cut the toast the wrong shape.
Triangles, not squares.

OK Go Song Stuck
In my head, infinite loop
When the morning comes...

Feb 9th
Out of house all day
I did miss you, internet
Did you miss me much?

Feb 10th
Quart jar of coffee
You are so delicious
Might need a gallon

Stupid garbage trucks
No Parking sign now missing
From beside garage.

Discovered how to
Distract Damon from laptop
Animal Crackers

Feb 11th
Yay insomnia
Finally got Bubs to sleep
Can't turn off my brain.
This one was published at 4:20 AM

Spin class will be fun
Two and a half hours of sleep
Some dark roast might help?

Challenging spin class
Singing helps to pass the time
Warren's not a fan

Feb 12th
Three cute bedhead boys
Clustered around the table
Peach pancakes breakfast

Movie night with Dan
Some nineties nostalgia
Empire Records

Feb 13th
Did housework today
Laundry, dishes, parenting,
Instead of haikus.

Feb 14th
Happy Valentine's
Wear red and eat chocolate
Lots of love to you.

Halfway through the month
Are Haikus annoying yet?
Fifteen days to go.

Damon won't be fooled
Vanilla yogurt disguise
Totally did fail.

Week One

February Statuses, Week One

For the month of February, I challenged myself to do every Facebook update in the form of a haiku.  I'm posting them all here so I have them all in one place.  Here's week one:

Jan 31st
Half an hour early
Welcome to February!
Whole month of haikus!

Feb 1st
February first
Hard to write a decent haiku
With Bubs attacking.

First haiku of month
Already have made error
I blame lack of sleep.

Busy playdate day
Coffee and chatting for moms
Two small boys now nap.

Swimming tomorrow
Missed two weeks while in BC
Sure hope I don't drown.

Feb 2nd
Punxsutawney Phil
You know, he drives pretty good
For a quadraped.

Today in swim class
Coach said my stroke looks quite good
Twelve hundred total

Gave myself a push
One hundred continuous
I feel fantastic!

How adorable
My two year old is trying
To sing soft kitty

Oh my poor stomach
Hurts from laughing so so hard
Maybe you like it?
The link I posted

Feb 3rd
6 is too early
Up while it is still dark out
Mmm quart of coffee.

No more pictures, please
Of creepy hidden faces
They give me nightmares.

My favourite thing
About kids being in bed
Don't have to share food.

Feb 4th
Adorable hair
Naked baby wants laptop
But mom! I'm so cute!














 Too many grey hairs
This colour sure is stinky.
I hope that it works.

I suck at side plank
No core muscles to speak of
Have to start somewhere

Feb 5th
Busy Day today
Ikea lunch and Grandma's.
No time for haikus!

Miserable Bubs
Hardly wants to eat a thing.
Finally, a tooth?

Feb 6th
Ten years off my life
John can open baby gates.
Bubs fell down four stairs.

Kids are being weird.
What is that out my window?
Giant white full moon.

Feb 7th
Few minutes alone
With coffee and internet
What a luxury

Small book club meeting
Still I got out of the house
Delicious mocha.
