Speaker 2 (00:29):
Spiral slide called?
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Is it a helter skelter?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Never heard of that in my life? Holy fuck? Is
it a helter? Random ship? Where'd you want that?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
What's a helter skelter about?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Basically, what Katie's trying to say is we're on the
downward spar towards Christmas, Yeah and school holidays? Yeah? Thanks?
You said that better, so much clearer because I've never
heard of helter skelter in my fucking life. Me. I
was like, what is about?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
You know those like spiral slides?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah, like coin in at the top of He goes, no, no,
you slide on them? Like, oh no again, I've never
been on one of these. Get on and it's like
a slide. Yeah, it's a slide. Okay, I'm sure it was.
You just made it up. Man, I did need all
of eight. He needs a break. Somebody she's had a
(01:28):
stress for a weekend and it wasn't even her kids
providing the stress of life. It was your husband. Yeah.
I don't want to go down that path because I
feel like I'm going to open it back up.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Oh I think I feel like I have to say
it now you've said it. The girls turn seventeen a
couple of weeks ago, and they've.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Got a car, bought their car. They're happy. Yeah, yeah, excellent.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
He's reversed out of the driveway in his car and
crashed straight into their What the fuck?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
He looked very sheepish though this morning when he's telling
me about it. I understand your frustration, and I probably
like when I thought about what would I response have been,
I think I would have reacted like a mixture of
all three of you. Yeah, the three of you girls
all had different reactions. Yeah, I understand your frustration and
the first burst of reaction to being anger, because I
(02:18):
think I do that as well.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Accidents happen.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
You did not say that first up, That's not what
I said. But accidents happened.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yeah, yeah, but look in your rear view mirror and
listen to the cameras that are beeping.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
We did you cannot tell you were.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Getting closer here, but my car always beeps at me
when I reverse out the driveway, and.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
He was only just going to get a coffee.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
The poor car, the car screaming at you.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Listen to me, Oh, bless, I love him, but I
do love how he did mention all three of your
responses being very different.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah, I was angry because I was thinking about the
excess that we're going.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
To be made you absolute fuck with Yeah, Holly money.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
She thought she was going to have to pay for it,
and then her next thought was people are.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Going to think I've done that.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Yeah, and Amelia was kind and accidents happened.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Don't worry Dad, don't worry dad. It's okay. This can
happen to anybody. Yeah. So, I mean, that's a beautiful,
well rounded response in terms of a household.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
You fucking idiot was the words that I said.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
And he looked at me. He started your like, accidents happened.
I was like, that is not what you said. Am
I a bad mom for being thrown under the bus?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Who's bad? Is that you being a bad MoMA?
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Is that them being a bad kid? Well, she's a mom.
Another mom has thrown another mom under the busy. Okay,
we've talked about this previously the other week on a
podcast which was Late Night Chats with Gracie at the
Kitchen Bench. Yeah. Yeah, the conversations that are coming in
nice and hot. They're thick and fast at the moment. Yeah,
B they're always like very late at night, and my
(04:16):
frustration and level and tiredness is fucking peeking by eight
point thirty.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
This is something that always challenges me as well, because
I want to be the person that goes allow them
to get it all out, allow them to talk it through.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
She needs to be seen heard.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
But then it battles with the other part of me
that goes, I fucking asked you at four o'clock how
your day was.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Can you've told me all of this then? And I
have you in the back of my mind. When I
feel that other part of my brain starting to flicker,
it's like almost like the lights flickering right when by
the time I'm at nine point thirty and I'm standing
at the kitchen bench and I am getting hit with
this like peppering of questions because you really can't be
(05:04):
bothered you. I don't want to go to bed yet.
But at the same time, I'm making fucking school lunches
for the next day. I actually just want to do
it in peace and quiet because I hate a doing it.
But B, what more do you want from me? From
the end of the day, Like, just leave me the
fuck alone. Like when you go to bed, I get
to disconnect, and the disconnection means I don't care about you.
(05:25):
It doesn't mean that. It just means I'm trying to
recharge batteries here, you know, Like when you fucking get
the blower out and you got the battery like and
you put it in the battery back, That's kind of
what I'm doing. Leave me alone. This particular occasion came
up from a very good friend of ours. But what
happened was I was standing at Nepple watching Elsie on
(05:47):
a Tuesday. I get a text message from aka friend
Slash another mum, and she says, when you were chatting
to my daughter, did she seem okay? She seems really
off me tonight. She's not talking to me. She give
me the cold shoulder. I just replied and was like, no,
she was good. We talked all the way home from school.
Everything seemed fine. She just said she was tired, but
(06:08):
we had great chats, and then she goes, well, just
so you're aware, and I'm thinking, oh god, she did
find my vibrator this morning and has not spoken to
me since. She told me that she was disgusted in
me and that she can't believe me. And then the
next thing she said was, I bet you Rachel doesn't
(06:30):
even have one of these. I was like, I'm standing
at netbun, I'm still watching network, but I'm thinking it's
about something else, And I was like what and I
would tell me that. She replied with, she absolutely does.
She's got the model up. I said to her, well,
(06:50):
I hope that you left it at that, and I
hope you left me standing on the pedestal while you
were not because I was like, oh my gosh. I
was like, bybe pretty rough.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Like how sweet that she's looking you going, Rachel would
never do it?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Never like that. Rachel's not going to do that. She
would not. I was like, why the mark is she
going through your drawers in your room? So I'd be
talking to her about boundaries, your friend boundaries or no,
she's not places. Yeah, she's not like the others where
they're just left willing Nelly. She's clean, she's the other friends,
other friends I know that aren't as strong on putting
(07:30):
things away in places.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Yeah, I've stayed in accommodation. So a friend who said,
oh yeah, I got last night half the last night,
I'm going home early, so the accommodation is going to
be free. I opened the bedside draw and she had
left a little friend in there.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
She messaged me and goes, how do you recognize your
approaches with Katie? I was like, you're on your own girlfriend.
I'm not going upstairs to help her out. I'm not
bringing home for you. That's all yours. Anyway, that was
pretty funny, So yeah, just carrying on with that, I
just sort of said to her, look, time will heal.
It's fine, Like it's okay, Yeah, she's.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Gonna think you're disgusting for a bit.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
And then my response I was like, I really hope
that you didn't say anything further. She went absolutely, if
my fucking buses going down, I sent your bus down?
What did she say? She said it was yours? Of
course it was yours. I was like over there, I
was like thinking. I was like, oh you s Then
I was like laughing my head off and I was like,
oh fuck you. Anyway, didn't think anything of it, Katie.
(08:39):
Fast forward to nine point thirty that night. Yeah, and
I'm standing at the kitchen bench making lunches in order
to burrow Wednesday morning to work in our household, I
have to do the lunch boxes. So I just did
like the old traditional like veggimie cheese, and that's fine.
I think it was like at this stage, nine thirty
quarter to ten, we'd gotten home late. I'd put them
into bed, said read your book, like leave me alone.
(09:01):
Now I've got to make lunch boxes. Good night, Yes,
love you, good night, good night, good night.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I'm standing there and then you can hear footsteps and
you're as a mom, You're just like you can feel
it boiling, and you're like, oh, I'm like putting the
veggimite on the fucking bread. And I looked and I
was like what, and she goes, Mom, I just need
to ask you something. At this stage, you don't know
(09:26):
what's going to be asked at night, forty five at night.
Just keep vegiman, just keep fucking going with the vegimite.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
And I was like, yes, Gracie, what And she was like,
I just want to know do you have a vibrator? Okatie,
this is this is still me at the bench with
my vegimite. And I was like, you don't stop, don't book,
don't show any emotion, just keep veggimiting. And I looked
at her and I went, well, let me just go
(09:54):
down the track of this is one of those subjects
that do you really want to know? Because once you know,
you can't Unknow, I said, and I can go through
everything with you if you like. I can tell you
everything like why you have them, why you use them,
what you get from them. This is that moment. I'm
going to put it back on you and go once
you know, you kinda know, so would you like to know?
(10:15):
She looked at me and she was like, I don't
think I want to know them.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
That was a very obvious yes.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
No, it wasn't yes.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
It was because the question was do you have a
vibe or I have one?
Speaker 2 (10:25):
I didn't answer it. I didn't say yes, but I
didn't say no, so technically not lying, I just redirected
it to once you know, you cannot know? So do
you want to know everything? Because I can't give you
a yes or no because the next question will come
in and it will be what do you use it for?
Why do you And it's kind of like once you're in,
it's like what is it called a pin? When you
(10:46):
go tampin bowling. You can't stop the ball. The momentum
of the ball is going to take out every whatever
those things are called. At the end of tampin bowling,
the pins, it'll be gone, it'll be done. Come back
to me when you're ready. I'm going to keep making lunchboxes.
I was like, now, go to bed.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
By this day.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
The sandwich has got so much. I put forty five
pieces of cheese and I was just like, oh my god.
And then at the same time, in my head, I
was like, fuck you. Thinking of my friend, I said,
fuck you. Oh my god, this is so unfair. I've
been thrown under the bus. I don't have to be
dealing with this. And it's all because of your top drawer.
You haven't hidden shit properly. And it's not my fault. Katie.
(11:30):
When has your girls never asked you what they've gone
through your top drawer, asked you about your vibrators. I've
never been asked.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
See you know why because mine's in Jay's top drawer.
So girls ever go through his top drawer, they're gonna
think he's the disgusting one.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Don't worry about Dad. He loves a good vibrator.
