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

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? 2mo

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 🖤🐝🖤 2mo

TheBookHippie Once you do the work it‘s so very worth it. I‘m cheering for you! ♥️ 2mo

JenlovesJT47 Ugh right there with you in Florida! It‘s midnight and it is still so ridiculously hot and humid 🥵 2mo

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! 🖤🐝🖤 2mo

Blueberry One thing I love about California is the lack of humidity. 2mo

AnnCrystal Oh my! 🙏🏼🐝💝. 2mo

Itchyfeetreader Gosh I can‘t imagine that stickiness ! 2mo

CBee @dabbe I‘d rather the dry heat any day! Honestly though, I just wish I lived somewhere more temperate. This is bonkers 🥵🫣😂 2mo

CBee @JenlovesJT47 you know what I‘m saying then! So gross 🥵🤪 2mo

CBee @Blueberry I worked in Yosemite for a summer years and years ago. The heat was totally bearable compared to here! 2mo

Eggs I concur, y‘all on the humid heat- it gunks up my lungs, makes me short of breath, headaches! Beautiful haiku!! 2mo

dabbe @CBee 🎯🩵🎯 2mo

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 😆 2mo

CBee @JenlovesJT47 oh yeah, hot is definitely hot and I‘m not fond, but humidity can kiss my grits 😂🥵 2mo

CBee @Eggs same!! And thank you ♥️ (edited) 2mo

lil1inblue I feel this one. Oof! 💙 2mo

DebinHawaii Yep—I can totally relate. Not a humidity fan at all. 😓 2mo

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 😵‍💫🫣🤦🏻‍♀️ 2mo

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” 😁 2mo

TheBookHippie @CBee ♥️♥️♥️♥️ 2mo

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! 😍 2mo

AmyG I come from a long line of klutzy women. I‘m sorry. Life is hard. (edited) 2mo

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) 2mo

CBee @AmyG that it is, my friend 🤪😬😂 2mo

kezzlou85 @TheBookHippie oh my gosh if menopause makes you clumsier I'm in trouble. I'm so clumsy already. 2mo

JenlovesJT47 My inner klutz and I are very well acquainted 😆 all the women in my family suffer from this affliction. Sending hugs 🫂💛🐝🖤 2mo

AnnCrystal I was born a klutz 👏🏼🐝👍🏼😂🐝💝. 2mo

lil1inblue I feel this! 😂 💛 🐝 💛 2mo

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. 🤣🥵😍 2mo

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 😂😂😂 2mo

CBee @dabbe I knew what you meant 😁 2mo

TheBookHippie @kezzlou85 It‘s a whole shit show. 2mo

TheBookHippie @kezzlou85 https://bywinona.com/menopause-symptoms/clumsiness 2mo

CBee @TheBookHippie a shit show dumpster fire 🤪🤪😂😂 2mo

TheBookHippie @CBee and no research. The little bit we had got gutted. 2mo

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. 2mo

TheBookHippie @CBee I think we should gather symptoms from each other and make a book. 2mo

TheBookHippie Also I just knocked my water over.. 2mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie Can I join in? 🙋‍♀️ 2mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie 🤣 2mo

TheBookHippie @dabbe we need a comprehensive list and then mail it out to each other 🤣🤷🏻‍♀️🫣😵‍💫🤦🏻‍♀️ 2mo

JenlovesJT47 This comment section is hilarious, where‘s my popcorn? 🍿😆 2mo

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 😂 😜) 2mo

AnnCrystal @CBee 😳🙏🏼😂🤐😉💝💝💝. 2mo

kezzlou85 @TheBookHippie thank you for this. It was really interesting to read. I have been wondering if I might be heading for perimenopause. 2mo

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! 🤣 2mo

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 Just you wait, sassy lassie! 🤣 2mo

TheBookHippie @lil1inblue I had a menopause baby! 2mo

TheBookHippie @kezzlou85 I swear you think you‘re insane and then realise it‘s menopause. And no one told you. 2mo

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. 2mo

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! 2mo

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. 2mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie That's right, you did! 😳😲🤩 2mo

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! 🤣 2mo

dabbe @lil1inblue Amen, sista! And your grandma sounds like a hoot! 😍 2mo

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! 2mo

CBee @TheBookHippie oh no 😂😂😂 I spill something on the daily, I think 🤪🤪 2mo

CBee @TheBookHippie @dabbe I‘m down! Let‘s start a menopause letter writing thing. 2mo

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 🤦‍♀️🙄😅😬😂 2mo

CBee @lil1inblue two words: tubal ligation. I had two kiddos and that was it. I couldn‘t even imagine having one now 😳😳 2mo

CBee @dabbe 😂😂😂😂 2mo

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! 2mo

kezzlou85 @TheBookHippie that makes sense. So many things you just assume are something else and then start to wonder if maybe it's not 2mo

kezzlou85 @CBee thank you I will check that out. 2mo

TheBookHippie @CBee they told me I‘d never have children. They lied 🤣🙃. 2mo

CBee @TheBookHippie they had no idea 😂😂 2mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie Like the force of nature that you are, you proved them WRONG! 😍🤩😘 2mo

DebinHawaii Love this! Can totally relate! 😂😂😂 2mo

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

CBee @dabbe @Kristy_K @DebinHawaii @TheBookHippie @bellabella @JenlovesJT47 @TheSpineView @lil1inblue @julieclair @Reggie @Eggs @AnnCrystal @BooksandCoffee4Me @vivastory @jdiehr 3mo

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? 🤣 3mo

TheSpineView So true. 💛🐝💛 3mo

JenlovesJT47 Side effects include things that are worse than what you are taking the medication for, including death💀😆. This is funny and so true. 💛🐝🖤 3mo

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 🤪😅😂 3mo

CBee @JenlovesJT47 exactly! Like, this will help you! Unless you die 😂😅🤦‍♀️ 3mo

AnnCrystal I know! Crazy ridiculous. How is that medicine? 👏🏼🐝🙏🏼☠️⚕️☣️🐝💝. 3mo

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!#!*%$!! 3mo

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 😂😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ 3mo

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

Reggie I like this so much. I felt like I fell into the water after that last line. 3mo

CBee @Eggs it was meant to be because the background is a PicCollage collection called “haiku patterns” 😊 3mo

These little wrens are some of our favorite birds. I discovered a pair building a nest in a hanging plant - so far, no eggs, but apparently they build multiple nests and then choose the best one. Still hopeful! Such spunky little friends. #haikuaday #haikuhive

BooksandCoffee4Me Ah, I love this!! We‘ve had hummingbirds nest on our wind chimes a couple of years. So fun to watch for the babies and see them grow. 💛 3mo

DebinHawaii I love this. Such a pretty little bird & you‘ve captured her so well! Also love “speckled eggs surprise!” 💛🐝💛 3mo

CBee @BooksandCoffee4Me now, hummingbirds are my absolute favorite! I would die if they were nesting where I could see it. I wish we could post videos on Litsy, because once summer really hits, the hummers are out in full force! I love to stand out there and watch them zoom - they are wonderful ♥️ 3mo

CBee @DebinHawaii thank you! 3mo

Tamra Funny you mention it! I only just late last week put up a hanging basket and today I discovered there is already a nest with a tiny blue egg. House wren family. They have been busy! (edited) 3mo

CBee @Tamra that‘s wonderful!! I read that they lay one egg a day, so you should have more tomorrow and maybe the next day ♥️♥️ 3mo

Reggie What an awesome snapshot of nature in a haiku! This rocks, chica! 3mo

CBee @Reggie aw, thanks! ♥️ 3mo

CBee @Tamra I found an egg in the nest today 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 3mo

CBee @julieclair yes, they are so spunky and perky!! 3mo

Tamra @CBee woot! 🐣 I made a mistake, mine are house finches. Still cute though. 😁 (edited) 3mo
