Are you a stickler for rules, or the benevolent leader of a lawless land? Guess which one applies more to each of us.

Ever notice that moms are such good listeners that it basically becomes our full-time job? Sometimes we wish our kids would realize that dads have ears, too.

What We’re Watching: DWTS Week 2 and West Wing “The Wedding”

9/24/2019

0 Comments

 
On our entertainment-themed Round 2 this week, we said goodbye to our first star on Dancing with the Stars. We think we're in favor of the new voting system—but definitely not the protracted elimination scene.

On The West Wing, President Bartlet got two world powers to put their disagreement on hold long enough for his daughter Ellie to be married (in "The Wedding"), while Josh's confidence cratered on the campaign trail. Mentioned: The West Wing Weekly podcast.

Next week, we'll continue with DWTS (Movie Night!) and The West Wing ("Running Mates"). We'll also enjoy the return of The Good Place, with its season four premiere.

When we heard that Disney has a bedtime hotline (in which characters tell kids to go to bed), we started dreaming about other hotlines we could use—and which pop culture celebs should staff them.

Managing Stress and Worry

9/19/2019

0 Comments

 
Mom stress and worry is eternal, but we have some modern ways of dealing with it, from meds to apps and other tech. We also depend on those old stand-bys, fresh air and vegetables. Well, some of us do. (Mentioned: Trello, https://trello.com/en-US)

What We’re Watching: SYTYCD Finale and DWTS Premiere

9/16/2019

0 Comments

 
On our entertainment-themed Round 2 this week, it was a double dose of dancing. So You Think You Can Dance crowned a winner (the one who's been our pick all along!). And Dancing with the Stars returned with a new set, a new crop of "stars," some new pros, and the usual potential for a fun season. Mentioned: Comedian Ryan Hamilton's "adult fall" routine, in honor of Christie Brinkley, and Annie Barrett's blog.

Next week, DWTS week 2 (when we'll actually get to vote for our faves), and on West Wing, "The Wedding."
