T’was the Night Before BlogHer

T’was the night before BlogHer, 11:08 pm;
while trying to pack, I wipe my son’s ass from a late-night BM.

Mom please help me butt itchy

Wondering what to wear has become a bit of a chore,
’cause I realize my pants were each designed for a bore.

A bore I am not and the last minute shitshow I know,
so I write a letter to me saying “You’ll be fine! Just go with the flow!”

Anxiety, self-doubt, and blog cards I’ve got;
will I forget my lotion and razor or not?

I breath and I say that what’s forgotten at home
I can buy there, that it’s fun “when in Rome!”

This story lacks meaning as does many of my rants
but I’m thankful that this time, I don’t feel like I can’t.

six sentence story

Just a silly post because I’m completely unready for BlogHer15 tomorrow and have been wanting to link up to Ivy’s six-sentence story. The prompt was “Letter.”

If you wanna read something more blog-like and real, read this about how my little boy turned six and did all of the things.

Once again, I’m so jealous of everyone meeting everyone in person and this time it would be SO easy for me to go since it’s in my “backyard” but my birthday is on Saturday (and this is the BIG one…ugh) so I think my husband would have been a little annoyed if i chose to spend it with bloggers over him…:)July 16, 2015 – 9:17 amReplyCancel
