Tell Us How You Really Feel

The elimination, over decades, of all the things we have to busy or bother ourselves with, whether it be with housework, parenting, socializing, or work - maybe it’s flattening us into something really lame.

How to Be Better Parents! - an exploration in understanding big feelings, the ones our kids are throwing at us and the ones we ourselves are feeling.

Surprise! Vicki finished watching The Secret Lives on Mormon Wives so that’s your homework for this week so you can come back and tell us what you think.

Since we know you’re not sick of debate reactions yet, we’re adding ours to the conversation.

Yard sign wars - What are your secret fantasies about them?

We’re both loving our latest book club book:
All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker - bring tissues to the ending

TWL:
Vicki is loving her new kindle cover from @page.theshop AND the Sabrina Carpenter album - both sparking real joy

Michelle is loving her new Target purchase: Ivy Oil Reed Diffuser - Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia: Essential Oils, Relaxing Aroma

Tell Us How You Really Feel

Michelle and Vicki talk a little about what its like to be sick these days, what living with cats is really like, how donating plasma is actually super chill, how trying new things doesn’t mean you can’t change your mind, why putting your partner down in front of friends can be sticky, and that talking about sex with your partner should be normalized.

Thing We’re Loving:
Michelle is loving American Murder: Laci Peterson on Netflix

Vicki is NOT loving Pieces of Her on Netflix - not new, not worth your time. But she did love Tylenol Cold & Flu Severe this week.

The conversation continues with talk of the death penalty and uh, rimming. So, again, NSFDrivinginthecarwithkids
