This episode is brought to you by Name Bubbles. It is back to school season and you know what that means.

Lots of items are heading to school and they're not always necessarily coming back. They're either headed to the lost and found, they're left on the school bus, their friends take them home thinking they're theirs.

How can we prevent this from happening? Well, I have just the thing, and it is called name bubbles. It is a mom

founded and mom-owned brand made in a small town in upstate New York. These are durable,

They have something to put your child's name on it. So it comes back home. These will be staying on

long term because they are dishwasher safe and laundry safe. They're not only for school. They're

So we finally, after years of, you know, hyming and hawing, as the term goes, to hire cleaners. Because even though

I'm working from home, I hate that I'm constantly, like, struggling between wanting to get

housework done because I'm in the house. I can see what has to be done, but I should also
