Here is Episode 131!

This week we were supposed to get into an in-depth discussion of These Old Shades by Georgette Heyer, until a comedy of errors started off the day. It was so bad we weren’t sure we’d have an episode up this week. At the 11th hour, all things prevailed despite rain storms and unending technical issues, so for this week we’ve tabled our discussion of the book and decided to share some silly things about us and as usual this conversation takes several tangents. Oh boy!

Our new release shelf for the week ending July 1, 2016 has close to 40 books for you to pick from. There are so many the picture below can’t contain them all but rest assured that our Monday post will have every single anticipated release we’ve picked.

In Episode 130, we have taken the good, the bad and the ugly from our own experiences growing up.  How have our own maternal figures affected how we are as parents, ie communication, quality time, how we instill confidence.

Maybe we learned some great things from our own mothers that we use as parents and maybe they did a horrible job in certain areas that we changed/or would change when it comes to our own kids.

Since the beginning of time gender roles have been defined as …

Men are the providers and women are the nurturers

Over the years the gender roles have changed and now we see many situations of both the man and the woman being providers or just as simply the man being the homemaker while the woman provides for the household.

But one thing that doesn’t seem to change is the ability of a woman to take on more, despite any of the roles we as women take on we seem to be juggling a heck of a lot. In Episode 129 we share our struggles with balancing life amongst a laundry list of life expectations.
