Summary

If you’ve ever fantasized about a week on a tropical island, a whole day in the spa, a winning lottery ticket, or – let’s be honest – even just a hot cup of coffee you get to finish in one sitting, you’re not alone. As busy, tired mamas it’s natural to dream about a life different from the one we’re living. But it’s also helpful, we think, to point those daydreams in a slightly more achieve-able direction, and that’s what Meagan and Sarah are doing in today’s episode. Join us as we each envision our version of a perfect, ordinary day: a day that exists within the actual framework of our current homes, jobs, cars, kids, and schedule, but where the stars align to leave us feeling especially happy and fulfilled. Play along at home and think about what key elements go into your own ideal ordinary day – it’s part fun fantasy and part food for thought. Join us!

0:00.0	Hi, I'm Sarah and I'm Megan. We're two moms with eight kids between us from
0:05.2	little to grown. We're in different areas of the country and in different stages
0:09.0	of life, but we both know that motherhood's a lot easier when real moms share
0:12.7	tips and encouragement. And remind you that it's really all gonna be okay. We're
0:16.6	not experts. We're parents who've been there. We're not perfect. We're real.
0:19.9	Welcome to the mom hour. Hey everyone and welcome to episode 324 of the
0:26.4	mom hour. I am Sarah Powers here with Megan Francis. Hey Megan. Hey Sarah, how are
0:31.1	you? I'm good. We have kind of a cozy recording setup today just to bring you
0:35.8	behind the scenes. We're recording on a Sunday morning and right on the on the
0:40.6	eve of you taking off for a vacation, which we'll talk a little more about. So I
0:44.6	don't know. This feels feels different and cozy and nice. And we're always and
0:48.7	well usually almost always in our individual beds when we record anyway, but
0:53.3	right now I'm particularly cozy. I'm still in my pajamas. Me too. I am sitting
0:58.0	butterfly style in my bed with my like with a pillow kind of in the little, you
1:03.4	know, little diamond that my legs are making and my computer on that. And so I'm
1:07.6	very relaxed at the moment. At some point I'll probably need to shift around
1:12.7	hopefully I won't make any noise. All right. Well, we are cozy on a Sunday
1:17.4	morning today, but today's topic is actually kind of about the rhythm of a
1:23.4	day. And we had the idea for this topic because we're in kind of I would say
1:28.7	mid to late summer right now, depending on when summer ends and what you
1:32.0	consider end of summer. And there's just always this kind of we talk about it
