Summary

Today’s quote: “Therapy should have open houses like elementary school so my therapist can meet everyone I talk about” - @steadfastcounseling 

 

Inspired by Annie Downs, “That Sounds Fun”, Amy & Kat talk about making a list of things that sound fun to you during the stressful holiday season (rather than just focusing on the things that sound like a drag on your to do list). Ideas include:

 

  • Grabbing your favorite coffee drink
  • Baking chocolate chip cookies
  • Hiking in the woods 
  • Reading a good book
  • Singing carpool karaoke 
  • Have a game night
  • Curling up by a fire
  • Learning something new 

 

What sounds fun to you?? Make a list! 

 

Amy & Kat have fun playing The Toast’s “When You Know The Words To The Song” Game 

 

Other topics discussed:

  • Apple TV’s “Lessons in Chemistry” (spoiler alert!) and other shows that remind us of the double standards women used to face
  • Do you feel stressed when trying to verify you're not a robot?? 
  • Amy’s picture frame TV doesn’t actually have a frame…
  • PTL = Praise the Lord 

 

Bonus quotes: 

  • “The future is going to be crazy” 
  • “Today I completed a chore that I’ve been putting off for 6 months. It took 15 minutes. I will learn nothing from this” 
  • “I love the concept of being somebody’s peace, but unfortunately I’m insane”
