It's my month! I get to celebrate another year of life =) So...
Let's have a slumber party!
(virtual bloggy style)
Come back on or near my bday (11/20) and tell me your best Slumber Party Story - real or fictional and I'll tell you mine and we'll all have a good giggle!
November is the 2nd busiest month of the year. (October was 3rd) And I'll tell you why...
- this month we are taking our vacation to Disney
- then we are going to visit relatives for Thanksgiving - one thing I'm thankful for is other relatives willing to host and make the huge meal who are fabulous cooks and hosts.
- there is also my bday (NOVEMBER 20 =)
- and I still have to make my kids finish their gift lists (which should have been done last month) and start shopping myself (one gift bought so far)
- December is #1 with the holidays and parties and basketball games and decorations and xmas cards and wrapping and on and on...
I'm getting a headache just thinking about it all!
And here is my poem for PAD #7, What won't wait. (I dropped #6 at Poetic Asides and #5 below, got honorable mention in Janet Reid's contest, yay!)
No time to say Hello, Good-
Always in a hurry
Rush, rush, rush
Speed up gait
Let em wait
I know I’m late.
Hush!
Alarm set earlier
Then I hit the snooze
Almost break it
I can make it
Or I’ll fake it
Cruise!
Time doesn’t care
Leaves me in the dust
Maximize
Economize
Use it wise
Must!
Happy birthday month to you! Love the poem, really sums up this time of year.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love slumber parties! So excited!
ReplyDeleteI think this comic is just brillant! It's november and it's thanksgiving... although, I do get my christmas shopping done this month so I can relax next month.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Santa is kind of pushy, especially at Costco--he is everywhere.
ReplyDeleteI posted that pic on FB too! LOL. It cracked me up - I just had to share. So funny. And cool bracelet that you won. Way cute.
ReplyDeleteI used to celebrate my birthday week, but now I'm like'n bday month a whole lot better. Great idea. And slumber parties to boot...I have a great story too. :)
ReplyDeleteYour creativity with words just keeps on coming. Loved that one!
ReplyDeleteby the way, my talk went good.
mom
Ah, very TIMEly poems. ;)
ReplyDeleteWhen do you go on your trip? When, when, when? My past trips to Disney World have been in November, and after doing one in October...I much prefer November. Weather's more comfortable, and it doesn't seem as crowded. So HAVE FUN!
P.S. M.Pax's post at my place today was somewhat misleading - it was actually a different Nikki she knew back in NYC in the 80s. Sure would've been fun though. :)
Happy birthday month! Nice poem. I will have to think of a slumber party or maybe I'll make one up.
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling the turkey. I've seen Christmas doo-dads, decorations and everything at so many stores.
ReplyDeleteI love that poem. It sounds familir for some reason. Ooohh...yeah, my life.
Love the wrist bands!
LOL. Great comic. And great month!
ReplyDeleteHey, cool! My husband has the same birthday as you. I hope you have the happiest one. ;-)
