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,

waterproof name labels for kids stuff, including lunch boxes, water bottles, backpacks, clothing, you name it.

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

also great for daycare, sports, camps, anywhere where things tend to go missing. With children, that's most

places. So save yourself from having to order things that you already purchased this year.

I have so many things that I want to do podcast episodes about, but they all require a little bit

of preparation. And then I always find myself on Monday being so busy with like today I had a recording.

I'm trying to get my stupid friggin' office painted, which has taken forever.

So finally, when I got new paint to use on the weekend, I was like, I need to do it as soon as possible.

So I did that today.

And then Monday is always trying to get the podcast done for tomorrow and then also setting up Friday's podcast episode.

And then, of course, emails from the weekend. So I always find Monday really busy. And then I didn't sleep well last night. Every once in a while
