My BFF Kerrie is back after a long hiatus from Cooped Up Live! We're talking the Queen, Little Mermaid, bad-ass marketing and all the other topics of the day. 💅

How's your week starting? So far, mine's been magnificent...especially this weather!

I'm not saying that "Mommie Dearest" is the quintessential guide to parenting. I'm also not saying that there aren't some tactics that I've adopted from the movie into my own home. Last night was a perfect example. And, no, it didn't involve wire hangers, cleaning powders or an ax.

Anyone else eating up every morsel of news about Queen Elizabeth's death and the pomp around it? Let's unpack it.

It's A Bird! It's A Plane! No, it's just a Texas Floodwater Mosquito. Have y'all seen the size of the mosquitos this week? I did some research on them and I'm shook. Also, who needs a Groupon for funerals? Apparently Facebook thinks I do!

(Apologies to podcast listeners: I had some technical difficulties to work through in the first couple of minutes.)

How did everyone's Labor Day weekend go?! Mine was not relaxing in the least. The To Do list resembled a CVS receipt, which is exactly how I like to spend a long weekend!

Everyone seems determined to make Sept 1 their new "new year" for getting things started. How about you? I'm ready for Christmas decorating to start! And can we talk about HBO Max's "Julia" -- I'm in love!

I think my weekend may be busier than my week! Closet organization, shopping for walking shoes that aren't hideous, prepping for an upcoming baby shower at our house...the list goes on.

Everyone is talking about forgiveness today! My big thing is forgiving the car dealership for keeping my car for more than two months, but now I have her back.

My BFF Kerrie is here! We're talking pop culture, adulting, corny dogs, expensive meats, the latest social media app and all the other things.
