Listen "Mace Mishaps, College Tours, and Aspartame Withdrawal"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Cynthia and Heather get sidetracked by Heather’s trip to all of the South East United States for a fun college tour. Cynthia shares what happens when JB has an entire floor of the house to himself and finds the mace (does this count as a free chemical peel?). All of this unfolds while Cynthia is trying to quit Coke Zero (again) and walks us through her strategy to finally kick the habit. Plus, Heather is made aware of how she for sure has too many kids at too many schools with an awkward wave situation at Senior Parent Night.
