Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ooh, savy. I like to keep it real simple. Happy
day before Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Unless you're listening to this on Thanksgiving to get away
from your family.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Or maybe even after. It is about that.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Even the bells are ringing for me over here. It's
about that time to talk about all things Thanksgiving and
family and fun and craziness and probably a little bit
of alcoholic beverages mixed into all of that. But Happy
(00:42):
Thanksgiving to everyone. What an amazing time. I do feel
like the world is almost trying to skip over Thanksgiving
at this point because every sale in the world is
on already.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I mean, I feel like they're taking the fun out
of it.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It used to be you had to do the Thanksgiving stuff,
then the next morning, at the crack of dawn, you
would set your alarm I mean I'm talking four am
because you didn't want to miss any of the sales.
You woke up, you set your alarm, you woke up,
you were exhausted because you hung out with your family
(01:23):
the night before until wee hours of the morning. We
would always have like a giant meal I mean with everything,
which probably just a typical meal I would think for.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Everyone, big old huge turkey.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
We would have corn stuffing, green beans, potato potatoes. He
has gravy, cranberry sauce, of course, cranberry sauce, rolls, and
then you would go to and then maybe like one
extra dish somewhere in there. That was just like my
normal I shouldn't say my normal family, because we had
normal anyway, but that was just like my immediate family before.
(02:02):
When I was younger and we would go to my
grandmother's house, Lord have mercy, there were probably twenty plus
dishes that we would just keep eating off of, like
the whole night, and then you went back for round two,
and round two could be still the same stuff, or
they would bust the bread out, so it was more
(02:25):
I don't know, maybe like a lunch slush dinner. But
then we were there so late the bread would come out, mayonnaise,
miracle whip, whatever, because you know, there's always someone that
likes one or the other.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Oh, Lord, I know what I forgot. Hold on squirrel moment.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Deviled eggs. The deviled eggs. You always have to matter
of fact that any family function, we have deviled eggs.
My sister is in charge of that now. But anyway,
I'm digressing, So we'd get the bread out, we'd all
have sandwiches. We would play cards, we would play what
was hot back then, way back when it was pictionary.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
We played. There was a thing that.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
My grandmother played for years, Polish Rummy. So we played that.
Oh my goodness. There were so many different games, but
that was kind of the thing. Is you eat your food,
you hang out. Obviously football you watched some football, came back,
had seconds, had thirds, and then by the time everything
was over, then it was time for everybody started playing games.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
And we would literally.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Sit around and play games till probably midnight at least
everyone would go home. You would be so tired when
you got home, but you set your alarm. I'm telling you,
you set that alarm for that four o'clock, five o'clock
because you didn't want to miss one sale. You would
get up and it would always.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I don't know why I remember this.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It would always be cold, it'd be freezing, and you
would go and the penny so like it was always
best buy Target. Jace Penny was, you know in the mix.
Jac Pennies is what my mom just like she calls
Kroger Kroger's. I don't think we're gonna break her.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Up those habits, but it's fine, it's fine.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
So we would drive by and see how long the
line was, and we would all look at each other
and be like, well, is it worth it to stand
in that line.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Or is it not?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
And my dad, God rest his soul. I miss him.
I miss him so much. I miss him. On the
daily he would he would stand in line at Microsoft
or Microcenter.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Microcenter is what it was called. Microcenter.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
I don't even know if that's still open, but anyway, Microcenter,
best Buy, those are the be the places. But I
promise you he would do that. You know, one or
two stores after that. That man would not shop until
Christmas Eve. But he never missed a beat. Always got
everybody exactly what they wanted. I'm like, we are shopping
(04:54):
almost year round, sir, and you can go on Christmas
Eve and get everything.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
But it always always worked out.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
And it was a running joke because he'd be like, hey,
can you come help me wrap these?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
I'm like, you just.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Got these today?
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Yes? Oh? I miss him so much.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
What I wouldn't give to have one more holiday, one
more hug, one more anything, just to say hey, we're
doing all right.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
We miss you a ton.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
But anyway, I don't want it to be I don't
want it to be a sad thing.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I missed him.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
I wish I could give him a giant hug. But
all of the traditions that we had, all the fun
stuff that we did, I just cherish that. I cherish
that every single day. Someone's just beeping up a storm
on me today. I'm telling you so anyway, I feel
like standing in the line was kind of like the
(05:50):
right of passage. You needed to stand in that line
in order to get that sale, Like you need to
rush in and hurry up and find out where that
thing was. You know, people be walking in, like mall
walking in or sprinting in, and you wanted to hurry
up and get that deal, and you hope that you
got that deal.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
It was part of the fun of it. Like I was.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Never involved in any of the everyone's completely pushing people down.
I was never involved in any of that stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
But it was.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Almost like you won the prize because it was survival
of them fit, Like you got up, you paid your
dues by getting up early, standing in that line when
you're freezing. I remember when I was real little people
would be camping out for things like literally night before
(06:38):
they would get done with their Thanksgiving afternoon and they
would have like sleeping bags intents.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
I used to imagine doing that. Now no, I can't.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
And here's why everybody already has their sales out. For instance,
I went to that the other day and they had
Echo dots, which were twenty two dollars. But then they
have this new thing. I don't Okay, I'm gonna pay Butcher.
The name of it Echo face maybe or Echo something.
(07:14):
But it's a little camera or no, like a little
screen is the easiest way I can describe it. So
it's maybe like a five inch screen, and it's the
same thing as the Echo dot, but now you can
actually see, so you can say, hey, Echo, show me
my ring, and it will show you what's going on
on the ring, so you don't have to like go
grab your phone or go out to the front door
(07:34):
or whatever. And they had those for half off, so
I think I paid forty or fifty dollars for each
one of those, which.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Is nuts to me. So it's like I just happened
to be walking in to grab.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Something I didn't return something I need to grab hooks
for the ornaments to hang on the tree, and.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I saw their Black Friday stuff already out.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I was like, Okay, you're coming home with me and
I'm getting this for this person. And after that it
was just really cool to see that stuff. But in
the same token, I was kind of sad because I'm like, oh,
I'm not going to probably be out on Black Friday
cause the last five six years, probably because it's gotten
I don't want to say worse or better, whichever way
(08:13):
you look at it, for the last five or six years,
I'm pretty much done with my Black Friday shopping, either
the day before Thanksgiving or on Thanksgiving because their sales
are up and I can just get it and then
get it shipped and then I don't worry about it.
I mean, I definitely look especially this year, I definitely
look like a order because the stuff I've ordered and
(08:38):
then all of the things, let's talk about this, all
of the things that TikTok shop has sent me has
been insanity.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
So I can request items.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
If vendors or sellers reach out to me and say, hey,
we want you to promote the product, I can say okay,
yes or no, but I what this is what I
do yes or no, and then the product gets to me,
and if the product is complete crap. I don't care
what they say. I just don't do it. I'm like, no,
I'm not doing that. I'm not going to sit here
on the screen and be like, oh this is great
and have people spend their hard earned money. I'm not
(09:11):
doing that. I don't want it done to me. I'm
not doing it to anybody else. So they'll send me products,
you know, if I say yes or no. If I
say yes, obviously they'll send me the product. So they
send me products. Then TikTok shop itself sends me products.
And then I have random people sending me products that
I don't even say yes or no to. They just
send it in the hopes I'll do something like a video.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
And here I'm thinking, y'all.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Are very brave because I will not. I will not
pull any bunches. It's either going in the trash or
if it's something that I feel someone in need could use,
then it gets donated. There's a ton of clothes that
have been sent to me, and some of them I'm like,
oh wow, that's horrible, Like the tech sure or whatever
(10:01):
it might be, like, oh, this is probably gonna fall apart,
and not that I feel like I should gift that
to someone that is in desperate need of clothing versus
just pitching it because I feel like someone wouldn't. I
don't know that kind of that kind of sounds weird,
but I feel like some of them would appreciate the
fact that even if they, you know, could wear it
(10:23):
for six months, it might fall apart after that six months.
But even if they had it for six months, it's
probably something that maybe they didn't have. So I take
that route of of switching over. Now, if it's something
that I'm like, this thing's gonna break or has a
choking hazard or whatever, I don't I just end up
pitching it or you know whatever. It's very There's very
few things I've had to do that for, but some
(10:45):
of them that like if they've smelt really funny, like
I don't know, mildew or whatever.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
I'm not passing that on anyone that just goes straight
in the trash.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
But clothing I'll donate or anything else that I feel like, ooh,
this could be really good. Other stuff I've just saved
up that if I have to do a second video
on it or a third video on it. I've saved
that and then I will be sending those off to
whoever could possibly use them. Now, TikTok shop is nets.
(11:13):
There are so many products out there. It truly, in
my opinion, is Amazon, like straight up Amazon. I said
this on the radio last week. I genuinely feel like
TikTok stick with me. I genuinely feel like TikTok is
going to have Amazon trucks, but TikTok trucks and your driver,
(11:38):
your TikTok quote unquote driver, we'll bring you your TikTok
shop products. And I said, well, maybe you could choose
a dance. So when your driver hear me out, when
your driver brings your TikTok shops up to you, you
can choose like retegae retegae, I'm a savage. How freaking
(12:05):
amazing would that be just to quote unquote not Amazon drivers,
but TikTok shop drivers literally dancing their.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Way, dancing their way to your door with their purchase.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Now, if this happens, I'm calling it right now. If
this happens, someone owes me money because I feel like
that's just me, like that's a genius thing. They would
probably get everybody on board for that. Oh wait a minute,
especially if the ladies could order quote unquote a thirst
trap to deliver the product.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Oh oh jesus, it's over. It's over. I've coined it.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
So whoever is going to be doing this, send me
my royalty because if you literally the videos that I've
done were people like, well, my Amazon driver don't look
like that. Well my fire my Yansy fire department police,
they don't.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Look like that.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
If you get hand picked, Okay, that sounds really bad.
We're going down a rabbit hole we should not be
going down. But anyway, I'm gonna need my royalties for
that because I definitely think I definitely.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Think that I'm onto something on that front.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Nonetheless, you can literally get everything on there. I've had
people reaching out to me, Oh, can I send you
a bed frame? Can I send you a mattress? Can
I send you a dresser? Can I send you this?
Can I send you that? And I'm like, oh my goodness,
I mean everything, indoor furniture, outdoor furniture, clothing, household items,
you name it. There is literally everything on there. And
(13:41):
it's so funny because people will make the comment, oh,
I miss your old content. I miss your old content,
and I'm like, my old content. No, it's still there,
it's just not being pushed as much because TikTok is
pushing TikTok shop right now. And that's fine, and it's
probably gonna slow down after Black Friday and then after
Christmas it'll slow down quite a bit. But I'm telling you,
(14:03):
it's nuts how much of that gets pushed. And I
get DMS, so.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
You gotta go to my page.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
You have to check out my content on the daily basis,
because I still do my normal stuff every day and.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Additional, like the Christmas tree. Let's talk about the Christmas tree.
I just hold on.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
I'm gonna look it up because I need to know
the actual name of the tree. So I saw this tree.
Oh my goodness, probably three three four years ago. I
saw this tree, and I kept saying, oh my gosh,
this is the most beautiful tree. It's so realistic looking.
I really really really need this tree. But it was
(14:47):
insanely priced, and I thought, okay, it looks like okay,
it looks like the tree that I had cut down
the first year after my divorce. My son and I
went and we cut down a tree we'll be doing
that this year as well. But okay, the tree was
about four hundred dollars. But I kept waiting for it
to go on sale, and I said, all right, it's
(15:08):
on sale.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
I've saved up. I'm gonna get it. I think I
paid around.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Two two twenty five somewhere running there, said okay, I'm
getting it. It had four point seven stars and it
looks so stinking realistic.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
It's called the Tek seven and a half.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Foot Christmas Tree, and it has like two different types
of branches. I don't even know how to describe it.
It's like a light green on the end and a
darker green in the middle. It looks like you literally
cut it down from a tree farm. I'm absolutely so in.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Love with it. I get it. It's been sitting in
my basement.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
It got delivered when I found it on sale, got delivered, like, okay, great,
sitting down there for a month and a half at least.
I open it up the other day and Josh is like,
what's going on. I put the bottom part in, I
put the middle part in. I was like, you have
got to.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Be kidding right now, Oh, you have got to be
kidding me.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
This tree looked identical to the Charlie Brown tree. I said,
there is no way. And it was brown in the middle,
so it truly looked like a real tree. So it
has these branches that are stemming off that look pencil thin,
and then it's brown in the middle. I mean, it
(16:28):
literally looks like you went to a Christmas lot, a
Christmas tree lot, and you picked a tree up and
you pat it down on the ground and all the
needles fall off and it's just literally branches.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
That's what this freaking tree looked like. And it went insane.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I posted it on TikTok and it probably I don't
know last I looked after I don't even think a
full day. There was like two million views on it
and everyone was clowning it. I'm like, same, same, And
I paid two hundreds something dollars for this. I was
sweat it. I was like, oh my goodness, because it
was past the window of me returning it. So I
(17:05):
was like, well, what the hell we gonna do now,
We're gonna make the most of it. So it was
literally seven minutes after people are it's seven minutes we
want to see what the tree looks like.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I oh, I don't even have it fluffed. I don't
even have anything going on with it.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
But it was really cute that everybody wanted to see
what this dangon tree looked like. So and in the
middle of ten things, the alerts were so cute.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
That it's been seven minutes, been seven minutes, Come on,
come on, come on, where are you at?
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Where's the tree?
Speaker 2 (17:37):
It didn't like any video that I had after that,
even like somebody's I had to be putting up because.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
It was a seller or whatever.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
I had to put the video up. And it was
funny because even on those videos, where's the tree?
Speaker 3 (17:49):
And it reminded me, oh, free Frosty, Free Frosty.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
With Big Christmas with the Cranks.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
So it's like, oh my gosh, people are about to
show up at my house wanting to know where this
tree is. I'm gonna have to hurry up and get
it decorated. So I didn't even get it decorated. I
fluffed it. I didn't have lights on it nothing. I thought, Okay,
I'm just gonna show people what they want. So I
showed the tree and I actually after I fluffed it,
I'm in love with it, Like I said, it reminded
(18:23):
me of the tree that the year my son and I.
It was just him and I because his dad and
I had split up, So that was the first year
that him and I went and cut a tree down together.
It was so adorable. We got our tree, brought it home,
put it up.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
It was.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
It was something because I feel like everybody else had
already cut their tree down, so there wasn't a ton
to choose from.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
But we were fine.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
We got our tree, we did our thing, We cut
it down, we put it up. It looked amazing, and
I remember letting him completely decorate that tree because I
feel like, just like Thanksgiving, when we have to have
our house super duper clean for everybody, you know, it's like,
let's go into cleaning mode.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Let's go into cleaning mode. Although now with.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
It just being my son and I and Josh is here,
you know, obviously halftime or whatever, but it's just not
it's not that messy.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
And I do have someone that comes in.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
She comes in every other week now, and it's not
because it's crazy messy or dirty. It's just I want
her to try and focus on Okay, well focus on
this part for this week, maybe just dusting and mopping,
and then the next week it could be bathroom or
you know whatever. So it's not crazy, but you want
to make sure that your place is nice and tidy,
(19:49):
especially for Thanksgiving, you know how.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
The mom's oh man, my mom.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
I love my mom so much, and I think this
is everywhere. And I did a video on it last
year where they get up and they're like, let's go,
let's go.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Does that mop that clean? That get in that corner?
Speaker 2 (20:06):
There's a cobweb over in there places that no one
will even go into. What every nook and cranny has
to be spotless just in case? And maybe it was
because I don't know, you want everybody to think that way,
that oh yeah, this is how they always live.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
We live in our houses.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
It's gonna get dirty, there's gonna be things out of place,
like it's okay, or maybe the in laws are come
in and you.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Don't want the judgment. I don't know either way.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Either way, it's the same concept of wanting it to
be perfect, wanting it to look perfect. The Christmas tree
is the same way. Come on, hear me out.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
How many of us, how many of us literally.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Want their family to help decorate and in the same
token your literal eye.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Your eye is.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Twitching when they hang the second ornament right next to
one that's already there, So it looks like a set
of balls.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I'm telling you. I know everyone that's listening, like, yep,
there's certains. I don't know. Are we just born with it?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Like?
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Is that what happens?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Is it's like spatial awareness is a thing because even
in human life, I promise you, my son, no spatial
awareness whatsoever, Josh, no special awareness whatsoever. The amount of
times that I've been stepped on, bumped into, almost elbowed,
(21:47):
hit with items. They'll pick up an item and they're, oh,
I'm sorry. I'm like, do y'all not know there's another human?
Y'all don't know there's another freaking human within a foot
of you or inches of you.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
So maybe that's just a woman thing. Don't come for me,
But maybe that's just a woman thing. That we have
spatial awareness in general and life and in decorating and
in decorating trees.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
And all of that and all of those things.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Anyway, we cut down the tree, brought it home, and
I let him just decorate till his little heart is content,
and I have gotten better with that even even now,
because I'm like, you know, he's having fun with this,
like let him have fun.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
But last year we decorated the tree.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
My mom was here, and I said, I really like
it if you would decorate with us, because you know,
how many chances are you going to get to decorate
your tree with grandma.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
And it's not even about.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Age or anything like that, but people get into their
own traditions or do their own thing and you're not
always there at the same time.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
So it was really cool.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
We all decorated it together last year, but I could
see I was relaxed, like whatever, let everybody hope. Cohen
would hang something up and my mom would kind of
look over at me.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
And I would just laugh. I'm like, what's wrong, Mom,
I'm like, what's wrong?
Speaker 2 (23:12):
You could just tell like she hasn't had a kid,
a little kid open her with her dream and forever.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
But it was so much fun. It was the cutest thing.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
And I'm looking forward to that tomorrow or whenever you
guys are hearing this. That was my alert right now.
Thanksgiving days tomorrow. I could not forget that.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
But I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Forward to just sitting down, hanging out, getting away from
you know, the daily grind, having a good hot meal,
and just enjoying family time and family talk. So tomorrow
it will be my mom and her fiance. My sister
has to work unfortunately, so she'll come later. She'll come
(23:56):
for round two as well as playing games with us,
and Josh will be here obviously, my son and myself,
and then we've invited my son's dad, which we invite
him every year, so I think he will probably come
at some point or hang out with us because his
family's about five hours away. So I did invite his
family down as well to see if they wanted to come.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
So I'm not sure if they will come or not.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
But I just feel like it's going to be a
great Thanksgiving where we can just sit, reflect, relax, get
a second round of food, wear our stretchy pants.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
I don't know how many years I had it took
me to figure.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Out I either need to wear a dress, you know,
free flowing, so then there's nothing constricting that belly.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Can eat as much as I want. But oh, before I.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Forget, I don't want I don't want to log off
because I want to tell you guys something Two things
one No. Three I'm excited about tomorrow. I think it's
gonna be very fun. I think it's gonna be very
relaxed and just sink in and settle into the tradition
that we have relaxing, eating, playing games, and just enjoying
(25:09):
each other's company. The second thing, I'm trying this tomorrow.
I saw this on TikTok. Of course, I saw this
hack of leftovers. And what you do is you take
your stuffing, you spray the waffle maker. Let's spray, put
your stuffing in there, make a waffle out.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Of your stuffing.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Then you push your potatoes, corn, and gravy, whatever else
you want on.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
There, and then you just eat it like that.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
That sounds like a dessert to me, Like, I cannot
wait to try that.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I will report back to y'all. I can't wait to
try that.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
That's gonna be like my number one Thanksgiving hack I
guess this year.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
That And then I saw the little cupcake tin.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
If you want to send someone home with leftovers, like
you can put them in that. That was pretty Although
its gonna be at my house. I don't really need
like the leftovers, but that could be cool to go
pick up with some of those and then be able
to give that to my mom and my sister and
you know, my ex so they can take some stuff
home with them. Okay, but the big reveal that I
cannot wait to tell you guys, I have to be hmm.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
I have to be careful and strategic.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
With what I say and how I say it. But
I'm gonna do my best. There is a new project
coming out. The first episode should be out I believe
December fourth. You'll be able to see that on all
of my channels. And if you know me, you know
(26:40):
I'm all about the feel good stuff, meaning giving back
and doing things for others. That's about as much as
I can say. But this one is going to be
a four part we'll call it a series. And I
think you're gonna want to tune in. No, no, no,
no no. I know that you will want you to
un in to every single one of these, and if
(27:03):
this goes well, my plan is to do this every
single month. And I think, no, I know when you
see the first one, you're gonna be like, no, we
need you to do more.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
And there's a possibility I could do more, but.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I need to figure out how I can do more
and still get it to fit in with everything else
that I'm doing. And I say that because this is
really important to me and I want to be able
to move other things around so I can do this.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
But when you have other obligations, you have to make sure.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
And I cannot, nor will I sacrifice time with my son.
And what I mean by that is here or there.
There are things that happen, People have to work.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
I get that.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
I have no problem with that, but I don't want
it to get to a point where I am doing
all these good things for everybody else but my son
is suffering and not seeing me. Ever, That's what I
mean by that. I don't want that. I don't want
to be a present yet absent mom. That's not that
is just not what I want to do or what
(28:08):
I want to be. So with all of that, I
cannot wait to show you, to tell you to have
you involved, because there will be a part where eventually
you guys will be involved in this in decision makings
and things like that. But I cannot wait for this
next adventure and next step and bringing you guys along
(28:31):
on this journey. It's I have the biggest smile on
my face, and I wish I could just tell you.
It's like you're telling your best friend something but you
can't really tell them everything, but you want to tell them,
and you're like, well, if I tell you just a
little bit more, will you promise not to tell anybody else?
Speaker 1 (28:44):
But I know that's not how it works.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I know if I said it, then people like I
can't wait for blah blah blah blah blah or what's
blah blah blah blahh.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
I love you, guys, but I just can't. I can't yet.
So you're just gonna have to be patient and wait
and ask questions if.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
You want, and I will do my best to skirt
around but yet give you maybe.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
A little bit more detailed than you. Guys can keep
guessing on it.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
But December fourth is supposed to be the date that
the first episode, I guess, maybe I could say.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Would drop.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
And on that note, I want and wish every single
one of you to have the best Thanksgiving and best
time hopefully.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
With your loved ones. And I hope that your.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Bellies are full, and I hope that your love tank
is full. I hope it's full of laughter and happiness
and love, I love you all so so much.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
And on that note, i'm out.
Ooh, savy. I like to keep it real simple. Happy
day before Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Unless you're listening to this on Thanksgiving to get away
from your family.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Or maybe even after. It is about that.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Even the bells are ringing for me over here. It's
about that time to talk about all things Thanksgiving and
family and fun and craziness and probably a little bit
of alcoholic beverages mixed into all of that. But Happy
(00:42):
Thanksgiving to everyone. What an amazing time. I do feel
like the world is almost trying to skip over Thanksgiving
at this point because every sale in the world is
on already.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I mean, I feel like they're taking the fun out
of it.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It used to be you had to do the Thanksgiving stuff,
then the next morning, at the crack of dawn, you
would set your alarm I mean I'm talking four am
because you didn't want to miss any of the sales.
You woke up, you set your alarm, you woke up,
you were exhausted because you hung out with your family
(01:23):
the night before until wee hours of the morning. We
would always have like a giant meal I mean with everything,
which probably just a typical meal I would think for.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Everyone, big old huge turkey.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
We would have corn stuffing, green beans, potato potatoes. He
has gravy, cranberry sauce, of course, cranberry sauce, rolls, and
then you would go to and then maybe like one
extra dish somewhere in there. That was just like my
normal I shouldn't say my normal family, because we had
normal anyway, but that was just like my immediate family before.
(02:02):
When I was younger and we would go to my
grandmother's house, Lord have mercy, there were probably twenty plus
dishes that we would just keep eating off of, like
the whole night, and then you went back for round two,
and round two could be still the same stuff, or
they would bust the bread out, so it was more
(02:25):
I don't know, maybe like a lunch slush dinner. But
then we were there so late the bread would come out, mayonnaise,
miracle whip, whatever, because you know, there's always someone that
likes one or the other.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Oh, Lord, I know what I forgot. Hold on squirrel moment.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Deviled eggs. The deviled eggs. You always have to matter
of fact that any family function, we have deviled eggs.
My sister is in charge of that now. But anyway,
I'm digressing, So we'd get the bread out, we'd all
have sandwiches. We would play cards, we would play what
was hot back then, way back when it was pictionary.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
We played. There was a thing that.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
My grandmother played for years, Polish Rummy. So we played that.
Oh my goodness. There were so many different games, but
that was kind of the thing. Is you eat your food,
you hang out. Obviously football you watched some football, came back,
had seconds, had thirds, and then by the time everything
was over, then it was time for everybody started playing games.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
And we would literally.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Sit around and play games till probably midnight at least
everyone would go home. You would be so tired when
you got home, but you set your alarm. I'm telling you,
you set that alarm for that four o'clock, five o'clock
because you didn't want to miss one sale. You would
get up and it would always.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I don't know why I remember this.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It would always be cold, it'd be freezing, and you
would go and the penny so like it was always
best buy Target. Jace Penny was, you know in the mix.
Jac Pennies is what my mom just like she calls
Kroger Kroger's. I don't think we're gonna break her.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Up those habits, but it's fine, it's fine.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
So we would drive by and see how long the
line was, and we would all look at each other
and be like, well, is it worth it to stand
in that line.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Or is it not?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
And my dad, God rest his soul. I miss him.
I miss him so much. I miss him. On the
daily he would he would stand in line at Microsoft
or Microcenter.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Microcenter is what it was called. Microcenter.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
I don't even know if that's still open, but anyway, Microcenter,
best Buy, those are the be the places. But I
promise you he would do that. You know, one or
two stores after that. That man would not shop until
Christmas Eve. But he never missed a beat. Always got
everybody exactly what they wanted. I'm like, we are shopping
(04:54):
almost year round, sir, and you can go on Christmas
Eve and get everything.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
But it always always worked out.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
And it was a running joke because he'd be like, hey,
can you come help me wrap these?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
I'm like, you just.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Got these today?
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Yes? Oh? I miss him so much.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
What I wouldn't give to have one more holiday, one
more hug, one more anything, just to say hey, we're
doing all right.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
We miss you a ton.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
But anyway, I don't want it to be I don't
want it to be a sad thing.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I missed him.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
I wish I could give him a giant hug. But
all of the traditions that we had, all the fun
stuff that we did, I just cherish that. I cherish
that every single day. Someone's just beeping up a storm
on me today. I'm telling you so anyway, I feel
like standing in the line was kind of like the
(05:50):
right of passage. You needed to stand in that line
in order to get that sale, Like you need to
rush in and hurry up and find out where that
thing was. You know, people be walking in, like mall
walking in or sprinting in, and you wanted to hurry
up and get that deal, and you hope that you
got that deal.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
It was part of the fun of it. Like I was.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Never involved in any of the everyone's completely pushing people down.
I was never involved in any of that stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
But it was.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Almost like you won the prize because it was survival
of them fit, Like you got up, you paid your
dues by getting up early, standing in that line when
you're freezing. I remember when I was real little people
would be camping out for things like literally night before
(06:38):
they would get done with their Thanksgiving afternoon and they
would have like sleeping bags intents.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
I used to imagine doing that. Now no, I can't.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
And here's why everybody already has their sales out. For instance,
I went to that the other day and they had
Echo dots, which were twenty two dollars. But then they
have this new thing. I don't Okay, I'm gonna pay Butcher.
The name of it Echo face maybe or Echo something.
(07:14):
But it's a little camera or no, like a little
screen is the easiest way I can describe it. So
it's maybe like a five inch screen, and it's the
same thing as the Echo dot, but now you can
actually see, so you can say, hey, Echo, show me
my ring, and it will show you what's going on
on the ring, so you don't have to like go
grab your phone or go out to the front door
(07:34):
or whatever. And they had those for half off, so
I think I paid forty or fifty dollars for each
one of those, which.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Is nuts to me. So it's like I just happened
to be walking in to grab.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Something I didn't return something I need to grab hooks
for the ornaments to hang on the tree, and.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I saw their Black Friday stuff already out.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I was like, Okay, you're coming home with me and
I'm getting this for this person. And after that it
was just really cool to see that stuff. But in
the same token, I was kind of sad because I'm like, oh,
I'm not going to probably be out on Black Friday
cause the last five six years, probably because it's gotten
I don't want to say worse or better, whichever way
(08:13):
you look at it, for the last five or six years,
I'm pretty much done with my Black Friday shopping, either
the day before Thanksgiving or on Thanksgiving because their sales
are up and I can just get it and then
get it shipped and then I don't worry about it.
I mean, I definitely look especially this year, I definitely
look like a order because the stuff I've ordered and
(08:38):
then all of the things, let's talk about this, all
of the things that TikTok shop has sent me has
been insanity.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
So I can request items.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
If vendors or sellers reach out to me and say, hey,
we want you to promote the product, I can say okay,
yes or no, but I what this is what I
do yes or no, and then the product gets to me,
and if the product is complete crap. I don't care
what they say. I just don't do it. I'm like, no,
I'm not doing that. I'm not going to sit here
on the screen and be like, oh this is great
and have people spend their hard earned money. I'm not
(09:11):
doing that. I don't want it done to me. I'm
not doing it to anybody else. So they'll send me products,
you know, if I say yes or no. If I
say yes, obviously they'll send me the product. So they
send me products. Then TikTok shop itself sends me products.
And then I have random people sending me products that
I don't even say yes or no to. They just
send it in the hopes I'll do something like a video.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
And here I'm thinking, y'all.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Are very brave because I will not. I will not
pull any bunches. It's either going in the trash or
if it's something that I feel someone in need could use,
then it gets donated. There's a ton of clothes that
have been sent to me, and some of them I'm like,
oh wow, that's horrible, Like the tech sure or whatever
(10:01):
it might be, like, oh, this is probably gonna fall apart,
and not that I feel like I should gift that
to someone that is in desperate need of clothing versus
just pitching it because I feel like someone wouldn't. I
don't know that kind of that kind of sounds weird,
but I feel like some of them would appreciate the
fact that even if they, you know, could wear it
(10:23):
for six months, it might fall apart after that six months.
But even if they had it for six months, it's
probably something that maybe they didn't have. So I take
that route of of switching over. Now, if it's something
that I'm like, this thing's gonna break or has a
choking hazard or whatever, I don't I just end up
pitching it or you know whatever. It's very There's very
few things I've had to do that for, but some
(10:45):
of them that like if they've smelt really funny, like
I don't know, mildew or whatever.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
I'm not passing that on anyone that just goes straight
in the trash.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
But clothing I'll donate or anything else that I feel like, ooh,
this could be really good. Other stuff I've just saved
up that if I have to do a second video
on it or a third video on it. I've saved
that and then I will be sending those off to
whoever could possibly use them. Now, TikTok shop is nets.
(11:13):
There are so many products out there. It truly, in
my opinion, is Amazon, like straight up Amazon. I said
this on the radio last week. I genuinely feel like
TikTok stick with me. I genuinely feel like TikTok is
going to have Amazon trucks, but TikTok trucks and your driver,
(11:38):
your TikTok quote unquote driver, we'll bring you your TikTok
shop products. And I said, well, maybe you could choose
a dance. So when your driver hear me out, when
your driver brings your TikTok shops up to you, you
can choose like retegae retegae, I'm a savage. How freaking
(12:05):
amazing would that be just to quote unquote not Amazon drivers,
but TikTok shop drivers literally dancing their.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Way, dancing their way to your door with their purchase.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Now, if this happens, I'm calling it right now. If
this happens, someone owes me money because I feel like
that's just me, like that's a genius thing. They would
probably get everybody on board for that. Oh wait a minute,
especially if the ladies could order quote unquote a thirst
trap to deliver the product.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Oh oh jesus, it's over. It's over. I've coined it.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
So whoever is going to be doing this, send me
my royalty because if you literally the videos that I've
done were people like, well, my Amazon driver don't look
like that. Well my fire my Yansy fire department police,
they don't.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Look like that.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
If you get hand picked, Okay, that sounds really bad.
We're going down a rabbit hole we should not be
going down. But anyway, I'm gonna need my royalties for
that because I definitely think I definitely.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Think that I'm onto something on that front.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Nonetheless, you can literally get everything on there. I've had
people reaching out to me, Oh, can I send you
a bed frame? Can I send you a mattress? Can
I send you a dresser? Can I send you this?
Can I send you that? And I'm like, oh my goodness,
I mean everything, indoor furniture, outdoor furniture, clothing, household items,
you name it. There is literally everything on there. And
(13:41):
it's so funny because people will make the comment, oh,
I miss your old content. I miss your old content,
and I'm like, my old content. No, it's still there,
it's just not being pushed as much because TikTok is
pushing TikTok shop right now. And that's fine, and it's
probably gonna slow down after Black Friday and then after
Christmas it'll slow down quite a bit. But I'm telling you,
(14:03):
it's nuts how much of that gets pushed. And I
get DMS, so.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
You gotta go to my page.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
You have to check out my content on the daily basis,
because I still do my normal stuff every day and.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Additional, like the Christmas tree. Let's talk about the Christmas tree.
I just hold on.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
I'm gonna look it up because I need to know
the actual name of the tree. So I saw this tree.
Oh my goodness, probably three three four years ago. I
saw this tree, and I kept saying, oh my gosh,
this is the most beautiful tree. It's so realistic looking.
I really really really need this tree. But it was
(14:47):
insanely priced, and I thought, okay, it looks like okay,
it looks like the tree that I had cut down
the first year after my divorce. My son and I
went and we cut down a tree we'll be doing
that this year as well. But okay, the tree was
about four hundred dollars. But I kept waiting for it
to go on sale, and I said, all right, it's
(15:08):
on sale.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
I've saved up. I'm gonna get it. I think I
paid around.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Two two twenty five somewhere running there, said okay, I'm
getting it. It had four point seven stars and it
looks so stinking realistic.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
It's called the Tek seven and a half.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Foot Christmas Tree, and it has like two different types
of branches. I don't even know how to describe it.
It's like a light green on the end and a
darker green in the middle. It looks like you literally
cut it down from a tree farm. I'm absolutely so in.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Love with it. I get it. It's been sitting in
my basement.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
It got delivered when I found it on sale, got delivered, like, okay, great,
sitting down there for a month and a half at least.
I open it up the other day and Josh is like,
what's going on. I put the bottom part in, I
put the middle part in. I was like, you have
got to.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Be kidding right now, Oh, you have got to be
kidding me.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
This tree looked identical to the Charlie Brown tree. I said,
there is no way. And it was brown in the middle,
so it truly looked like a real tree. So it
has these branches that are stemming off that look pencil thin,
and then it's brown in the middle. I mean, it
(16:28):
literally looks like you went to a Christmas lot, a
Christmas tree lot, and you picked a tree up and
you pat it down on the ground and all the
needles fall off and it's just literally branches.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
That's what this freaking tree looked like. And it went insane.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I posted it on TikTok and it probably I don't
know last I looked after I don't even think a
full day. There was like two million views on it
and everyone was clowning it. I'm like, same, same, And
I paid two hundreds something dollars for this. I was
sweat it. I was like, oh my goodness, because it
was past the window of me returning it. So I
(17:05):
was like, well, what the hell we gonna do now,
We're gonna make the most of it. So it was
literally seven minutes after people are it's seven minutes we
want to see what the tree looks like.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I oh, I don't even have it fluffed. I don't
even have anything going on with it.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
But it was really cute that everybody wanted to see
what this dangon tree looked like. So and in the
middle of ten things, the alerts were so cute.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
That it's been seven minutes, been seven minutes, Come on,
come on, come on, where are you at?
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Where's the tree?
Speaker 2 (17:37):
It didn't like any video that I had after that,
even like somebody's I had to be putting up because.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
It was a seller or whatever.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
I had to put the video up. And it was
funny because even on those videos, where's the tree?
Speaker 3 (17:49):
And it reminded me, oh, free Frosty, Free Frosty.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
With Big Christmas with the Cranks.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
So it's like, oh my gosh, people are about to
show up at my house wanting to know where this
tree is. I'm gonna have to hurry up and get
it decorated. So I didn't even get it decorated. I
fluffed it. I didn't have lights on it nothing. I thought, Okay,
I'm just gonna show people what they want. So I
showed the tree and I actually after I fluffed it,
I'm in love with it, Like I said, it reminded
(18:23):
me of the tree that the year my son and I.
It was just him and I because his dad and
I had split up, So that was the first year
that him and I went and cut a tree down together.
It was so adorable. We got our tree, brought it home,
put it up.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
It was.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
It was something because I feel like everybody else had
already cut their tree down, so there wasn't a ton
to choose from.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
But we were fine.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
We got our tree, we did our thing, We cut
it down, we put it up. It looked amazing, and
I remember letting him completely decorate that tree because I
feel like, just like Thanksgiving, when we have to have
our house super duper clean for everybody, you know, it's like,
let's go into cleaning mode.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Let's go into cleaning mode. Although now with.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
It just being my son and I and Josh is here,
you know, obviously halftime or whatever, but it's just not
it's not that messy.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
And I do have someone that comes in.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
She comes in every other week now, and it's not
because it's crazy messy or dirty. It's just I want
her to try and focus on Okay, well focus on
this part for this week, maybe just dusting and mopping,
and then the next week it could be bathroom or
you know whatever. So it's not crazy, but you want
to make sure that your place is nice and tidy,
(19:49):
especially for Thanksgiving, you know how.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
The mom's oh man, my mom.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
I love my mom so much, and I think this
is everywhere. And I did a video on it last
year where they get up and they're like, let's go,
let's go.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Does that mop that clean? That get in that corner?
Speaker 2 (20:06):
There's a cobweb over in there places that no one
will even go into. What every nook and cranny has
to be spotless just in case? And maybe it was
because I don't know, you want everybody to think that way,
that oh yeah, this is how they always live.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
We live in our houses.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
It's gonna get dirty, there's gonna be things out of place,
like it's okay, or maybe the in laws are come
in and you.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Don't want the judgment. I don't know either way.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Either way, it's the same concept of wanting it to
be perfect, wanting it to look perfect. The Christmas tree
is the same way. Come on, hear me out.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
How many of us, how many of us literally.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Want their family to help decorate and in the same
token your literal eye.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Your eye is.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Twitching when they hang the second ornament right next to
one that's already there, So it looks like a set
of balls.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I'm telling you. I know everyone that's listening, like, yep,
there's certains. I don't know. Are we just born with it?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Like?
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Is that what happens?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Is it's like spatial awareness is a thing because even
in human life, I promise you, my son, no spatial
awareness whatsoever, Josh, no special awareness whatsoever. The amount of
times that I've been stepped on, bumped into, almost elbowed,
(21:47):
hit with items. They'll pick up an item and they're, oh,
I'm sorry. I'm like, do y'all not know there's another human?
Y'all don't know there's another freaking human within a foot
of you or inches of you.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
So maybe that's just a woman thing. Don't come for me,
But maybe that's just a woman thing. That we have
spatial awareness in general and life and in decorating and
in decorating trees.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
And all of that and all of those things.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Anyway, we cut down the tree, brought it home, and
I let him just decorate till his little heart is content,
and I have gotten better with that even even now,
because I'm like, you know, he's having fun with this,
like let him have fun.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
But last year we decorated the tree.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
My mom was here, and I said, I really like
it if you would decorate with us, because you know,
how many chances are you going to get to decorate
your tree with grandma.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
And it's not even about.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Age or anything like that, but people get into their
own traditions or do their own thing and you're not
always there at the same time.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
So it was really cool.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
We all decorated it together last year, but I could
see I was relaxed, like whatever, let everybody hope. Cohen
would hang something up and my mom would kind of
look over at me.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
And I would just laugh. I'm like, what's wrong, Mom,
I'm like, what's wrong?
Speaker 2 (23:12):
You could just tell like she hasn't had a kid,
a little kid open her with her dream and forever.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
But it was so much fun. It was the cutest thing.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
And I'm looking forward to that tomorrow or whenever you
guys are hearing this. That was my alert right now.
Thanksgiving days tomorrow. I could not forget that.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
But I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Forward to just sitting down, hanging out, getting away from
you know, the daily grind, having a good hot meal,
and just enjoying family time and family talk. So tomorrow
it will be my mom and her fiance. My sister
has to work unfortunately, so she'll come later. She'll come
(23:56):
for round two as well as playing games with us,
and Josh will be here obviously, my son and myself,
and then we've invited my son's dad, which we invite
him every year, so I think he will probably come
at some point or hang out with us because his
family's about five hours away. So I did invite his
family down as well to see if they wanted to come.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
So I'm not sure if they will come or not.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
But I just feel like it's going to be a
great Thanksgiving where we can just sit, reflect, relax, get
a second round of food, wear our stretchy pants.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
I don't know how many years I had it took
me to figure.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Out I either need to wear a dress, you know,
free flowing, so then there's nothing constricting that belly.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Can eat as much as I want. But oh, before I.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Forget, I don't want I don't want to log off
because I want to tell you guys something Two things
one No. Three I'm excited about tomorrow. I think it's
gonna be very fun. I think it's gonna be very
relaxed and just sink in and settle into the tradition
that we have relaxing, eating, playing games, and just enjoying
(25:09):
each other's company. The second thing, I'm trying this tomorrow.
I saw this on TikTok. Of course, I saw this
hack of leftovers. And what you do is you take
your stuffing, you spray the waffle maker. Let's spray, put
your stuffing in there, make a waffle out.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Of your stuffing.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Then you push your potatoes, corn, and gravy, whatever else
you want on.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
There, and then you just eat it like that.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
That sounds like a dessert to me, Like, I cannot
wait to try that.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I will report back to y'all. I can't wait to
try that.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
That's gonna be like my number one Thanksgiving hack I
guess this year.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
That And then I saw the little cupcake tin.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
If you want to send someone home with leftovers, like
you can put them in that. That was pretty Although
its gonna be at my house. I don't really need
like the leftovers, but that could be cool to go
pick up with some of those and then be able
to give that to my mom and my sister and
you know, my ex so they can take some stuff
home with them. Okay, but the big reveal that I
cannot wait to tell you guys, I have to be hmm.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
I have to be careful and strategic.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
With what I say and how I say it. But
I'm gonna do my best. There is a new project
coming out. The first episode should be out I believe
December fourth. You'll be able to see that on all
of my channels. And if you know me, you know
(26:40):
I'm all about the feel good stuff, meaning giving back
and doing things for others. That's about as much as
I can say. But this one is going to be
a four part we'll call it a series. And I
think you're gonna want to tune in. No, no, no,
no no. I know that you will want you to
un in to every single one of these, and if
(27:03):
this goes well, my plan is to do this every
single month. And I think, no, I know when you
see the first one, you're gonna be like, no, we
need you to do more.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
And there's a possibility I could do more, but.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I need to figure out how I can do more
and still get it to fit in with everything else
that I'm doing. And I say that because this is
really important to me and I want to be able
to move other things around so I can do this.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
But when you have other obligations, you have to make sure.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
And I cannot, nor will I sacrifice time with my son.
And what I mean by that is here or there.
There are things that happen, People have to work.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
I get that.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
I have no problem with that, but I don't want
it to get to a point where I am doing
all these good things for everybody else but my son
is suffering and not seeing me. Ever, That's what I
mean by that. I don't want that. I don't want
to be a present yet absent mom. That's not that
is just not what I want to do or what
(28:08):
I want to be. So with all of that, I
cannot wait to show you, to tell you to have
you involved, because there will be a part where eventually
you guys will be involved in this in decision makings
and things like that. But I cannot wait for this
next adventure and next step and bringing you guys along
(28:31):
on this journey. It's I have the biggest smile on
my face, and I wish I could just tell you.
It's like you're telling your best friend something but you
can't really tell them everything, but you want to tell them,
and you're like, well, if I tell you just a
little bit more, will you promise not to tell anybody else?
Speaker 1 (28:44):
But I know that's not how it works.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I know if I said it, then people like I
can't wait for blah blah blah blah blah or what's
blah blah blah blahh.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
I love you, guys, but I just can't. I can't yet.
So you're just gonna have to be patient and wait
and ask questions if.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
You want, and I will do my best to skirt
around but yet give you maybe.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
A little bit more detailed than you. Guys can keep
guessing on it.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
But December fourth is supposed to be the date that
the first episode, I guess, maybe I could say.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Would drop.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
And on that note, I want and wish every single
one of you to have the best Thanksgiving and best
time hopefully.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
With your loved ones. And I hope that your.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Bellies are full, and I hope that your love tank
is full. I hope it's full of laughter and happiness
and love, I love you all so so much.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
And on that note, i'm out.
