118: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

You know that saying, “Don’t have kids if you want to keep your house nice”? Turns out, it’s not a joke. 😂

In this episode, I dive into all the reasons moms simply can’t have nice things. From duct-taped chairs and chewed-up blinds in my own house, to bike scratches on my car, to the never-ending mystery of missing Tupperware lids, motherhood is basically a demolition derby for anything “nice.”

And it’s not just me, I asked you to share your “can’t have nice things” stories too, and wow… moms everywhere are living in glitter-covered chaos, Sharpie-marked couches, and homes that could double as crime scenes on HGTV.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• My own personal disasters (duct tape décor, anyone?)
• The mystery of the vanishing Tupperware lids 
• Why cars + kids = a rolling trash can on wheels
• Listener submissions that prove none of us are alone in this
• And why maybe it’s okay that our homes look like this

Motherhood may have ruined our furniture, our clothes, and our dreams of white couches, but it’s also given us stories that we’ll laugh about forever.

So grab your duct tape, reheat that coffee for the third time, and come laugh along with me in this week’s momversation.
