We wish you a Merry Christmas!

Thanks for getting us through the holidays, NickMom! Can't wait to see what you have in store for next year!

Tighty, righty

Speaking of spilling it, today I'm over on the always forthright BluntMoms with a poem entitled, "Every Single Thought Every Woman Has About Wearing Tights." Letting it all hang out despite my best efforts to look smooth.

Fuh Fuh Fuh Fuh, Fuh Fuh Fuh Fuuudge!

Click on through to NickMom for my under-your-breath versions of Silent Night and Deck the Halls.

Problem solver

That one's a jolly good fellow

Survive the motherfunny holidays with NickMom!

Decorum

NickMom really shouldn't encourage me.

You better shop around

May these Redbook haiku ease your shopping pain. How's your shopping going? Could you use a little haiku break to cool off that credit card? What a coincidence! I have one last little haiku break ready and waiting for you over at Redbook! May it ease your pain.

If that didn't do the trick, you may need to go full catatonic and watch a made-for-TV holiday movie. Trust me, it works every single time. There's a scientific formula, you know. I've spelled it all out for you on What The Flicka? If you should decide this list of tried-and-true movie ingredients makes a good drinking game, you're on your own.

Let's wrap

More Suburban Haiku on NickMom! Very excited to see Suburban Haiku on the Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop today. Less excited about the wrapping. Much less.

The buzz

More holiday haiku at Redbook! I’m such a busy bee these days. Aren't you? Then it’s time for another holiday haiku break with Redbook, don’t you think?

Or maybe you need music therapy. My favorite music therapist, Mommy is For Real, recorded a little carol I wrote for moms. Catchy, isn’t it? The big ending is my favorite part.

OK, time to get back to holiday business. Who stuffs your stocking? You might want to send along Ripped Jeans and Bifocals’ list of stocking stuffers for fabulous women. Because you’re fabulous, darling. Yes, you are.

Sorry about that

I would also like to apologize to the neighbor who attempted to compliment me on our new deck while I was staking a giant plastic candy cane into the ground, my incompetence simultaneously narrated by both my teenage son and his grandma. Timing is everything, you know. Anyhow, the rest of our decorating tale is on Huffington Post Parents. In haiku, of course.
