DATE, MARRY, DIVORCE - CAR EDITION

Kelly's no Macy Blackwell, but she is conquering laundry for a family of five—a super mom feat. Also while pregnant, she's wearing her seatbelt safely and on a mission to save the internet from dangerous contraptions promoted by influencers who don't know the risks they're taking.  To tip or not to tip at coffee shops—this question is at the top of Kelly's driveway dumps today. Lizz worries she'll get a bad coffee if she doesn't tip online and Kelly's going to start using a two-month tipping hack. George and Hattie are taking on more chores around the house and Lizz suggests making floor cleaning a game of who can bring mom the dirtiest rag. A complete transformation via freshly painted trim is underway at Lizz's new house while Kelly is still waiting for her shiplap saga to end.  Over 74% of people have subscriptions they've forgotten about.
