Fishing adventures happened. Tamara was cold all day. She was promised gloves and that didn't happen. It wouldn't have solved everything, but it would have helped. Rheannon was the only person who successfully caught a fish. Everyone had fun fishing, and lots of people almost caught a fish. Tamara was not one of those people. The things people said fishing had Tamara giggling all day.  Tamara is really upset that Diego is sleeping on top of the stove. She is not convinced that he won't hurt himself. There is an upcoming adventure that Tamara is really excited about. It is a group activity and Tamara and Rheannon are still trying to con a buddy into going with them.  It is a sound therapy. Rheannon thinks she will enjoy it, and Tamara thinks she will get bored. Rheannon is making the slow realization that maybe her favorite genre of movie is a romantic comedy. Although when you quiz her on the plot it is surprising what she remembers. Let's just say that it goes downhill fast. 

This week's episode kicks off with Tamara and Rheannon catching up on their weekends. Tamara stayed home for a relaxing movie weekend and went out to a relaxing lunch. Rheannon went for a family ski weekend. Rheannon did not have a very restful weekend. The last ski weekend of the season also brought some crazy wind. Everyone tried to make the most of the bad weather and Rheannon wanted to reward her nieces and nephew their hard work with some froyo. Her mistake though was trying to take four kids to pick out their own ice cream with only two adults supervising. It was a zone defense that never had a chance at working. Tamara dropped the ball shopping, but she still doesn't feel like it is all her fault. Things were accidentally left off the list and Rheannon was really sad that her raisins didn't make it home. Mistakes were made and it went downhill fast. 

This week's episode kicks off learning about how the baking challenge went. The obstacles mounted after a few failed trips to the store. Starting the cake bake with gluten free pancake mix wasn't  ideal, but no one was willing to go back to the store. Emotions were high for the bake and Tamara did not thrive in that team building exercise. Weirdly it was easier to team build with the children and work together to frost a cake. Lots of pool and foosball played, and the winner of the foosball was the five year old niece. Rheannon's birthday also included some mudding and drywall work. Tamara learned a lot about mixing the perfect mud. Tamara has been struggling getting her workouts in. After getting four walks in none of the workouts met the heart rate requirement. John joined us at the end of the podcast, but maybe didn't appreciate us airing all of his bad behavior. Things also got exciting this weekend when the microwave tried to catch itself on fire.  Also, one of the cats brought in a mouse and then let it go in the living room. Let's just say it went downhill fast. 

This week's episode kicks off with an update of the remodel work that has not started just yet.  A lot of movies watched this week. Kicking things off with a review of Spencer.  No one should be surprised that Tamara liked it more than Rheannon. Things got interesting this week with a trip to the movie theater to see Scream 5. An empty movie theater with reclining seats was a good time. Rheannon was happy to see the fifth movie in a series having seen none of the other movies. There of course is a bit of a disagreement about the rating scale about the movies, but mostly Tamara and Rheannon just like different things in a movie. Successful grocery store trip. Tamara had to juggle things carrying in the last load, but in the end no soda was dropped in the endeavor. Rheannon pulled off a bit of a surprise remodel on what Tamara thought was going to be a relaxing Sunday. Let's just say it goes downhill fast. 

This episode kicks off with the question of if we were recording. New recording gear means a need for tech support. Rheannon was not loving her drink, perhaps partially because Tamara refused to go to the store. Tamara did her best to fix the problem by fetching grenadine. Turns out Tamara really only likes to go to the store when it is her idea. Thankful for the TV recommendations from folks, and there are a couple of good options. Rheannon had a horrible migraine and to make it worse she found herself at an indoor water park with a migraine. Tamara had a great visit home. Great visit with family and friends. She did get to go on a adventure with one of her roomies. Took a pup to get a bath, and since he was such a good boy he got to pick out his own toy. Tamara's weekend was also productive when she helped her parents switch out a light fixture at their house. Her brother maybe did a lot of the grunt work with the actual electrical work. Rheannon's birthday is coming up, and she has very specific plans for the type of cake she wants. Tamara is immediately all bought in on this team builder from hell of three roommates trying to bake Rheannon a gluten free multi tiered layered cake. Tamara is trying to set a calendar and figure out shopping, supplies, and other obstacles. 

This episode kicks off with an update on the remodel work. One step closer to using the heated floors, and Rheannon really wants the pellet stove to know their days are numbered. Tamara had a great time working on remodel stuff with Rheannon and her buddy. Tamara thrived having a buddy to talk to and was able to work with supervision. The dry wall lift worked and managed to not crush anyone. Tamara wants to try cross country skiing, and even though Rheannon thinks she will hate it she is still willing to go along. There has been some feedback on our numbering system, but Rheannon is unapologetic in there only being 32 episodes in a season.  There is a question on what tv shows or movies all the roommates can agree on watching. Rheannon has her shows that she likes, which tends to be a documentaries. Tamara on the other hand is ok with a scripted show. There is the crossover though of everyone enjoying a good murder mystery. Even if they don't agree on shows this episode goes downhill fast. 

This week's episode kicks off with Tamara's adventures in Vegas. They say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. In this case it is what Tamara saw in Vegas will stick with her forever. Although it did confirm that Tamara when face with a confrontation will freeze.  Rheannon in the meantime went skiing with her family and now is up to teaching three nieces and a nephew how to ski. After bunny hill crossfit with a giant toddler Rheannon was relieved he finally learned to put all hist weight on his ski's. The amazing nick names continued with Reck it Ralph and Smooth Criminal joining the ranks of Speed Demon and Danger Noodle. While in Vegas Tamara took time on Sunday to relax and enjoy a spa trip. For the first time ever she got a seaweed wrap. It was a unique yet enjoyable experience. Although for anyone claustrophobic it would probably go downhill fast.  

This week's episode is recorded from the same house, but different rooms due to a little technical difficulty. Tamara is getting packed and ready for her trip to Vegas. Rheannon has been adjusting to Tamara moving in by doing more of the cooking. Which is a side effect of being the only person in the house still working from home. Poor John is struggling with the snow and not being able to go on his walks. Rheannon was pleased to get Tamara on board with her plan for her record players. Her hope is to have three record players each in a different room. While Tamara is heading to Vegas this weekend Rheannon is heading to ski in the mountains. Rheannon has some predictions for how her nieces and nephew will do with their ski lessons. This week will be vacations, but next week is going to be bathroom remodel. Next up is dry wall. Tamara is hoping to be helpful, and that it doesn't go downhill fast. 

This week's episode kicks off with Tamara explaining her chunky soup and her cleanse to kick off the new year. Rheannon's new year has been filled with a whole lot of snow. Turns out things got a little crazy with the snow today and trying to move her truck to help a stranger. Tamara had some trouble with her headlight repair and her windshield wiper repair, but lucky for her she had a couple people she could call on to lend a hand. Rheannon learned some important lessons about her new set up for her RV and the snow. Let's just say that this episode after the holiday hiatus goes downhill fast. 

This week's episode kicks off with a story of perseverance and stubbornness as Rheannon takes on a battle with a giant stump. She got her wife 100% bought in and committed to move this 350 pound stump in a foot and a half snow. Fancy boots might have been a bad idea. Tamara has scheduled an appointment to pay someone to fix her headlight. Rheannon is very disappointed that Tamara would pay someone to fix something so easy. Gift giving can be hard picking gifts and finding something the other person doesn't have. Rheannon shares the gift she got for her wife, and Tamara shares her confusion on buying expensive socks. Tamara pulls off one of the coolest things she has ever done by catching her friend from falling. Sledding is very different in college than it was as a child. Tamara rants about no one needing gloves and drinking to stay warm. This episode goes downhill fast.
