Ep 165: Are Modern Conveniences Making Us Bored...and Boring?

  • Summary

  • 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
