And Liz.

So he was gone for two weeks.

I'm forever changed by that experience. I'm not even sure I can

get into that right now. I think I need to internalize some of that trauma. Your mom time off starts

now. Welcome back to the Carpool podcast with Kelly. And Liz. It's the most, it's like a Monday,

well, sorry, we're recording on a Monday, but it's a Monday that feels like a Monday, but in a good way. You know what I mean? Like on a fresh start of the week. Like the week is ahead of you.
