Speaker 1 (00:00):
It is mojo in the morning. The holidays are here.
I mean, it's weird to think that we've got Thanksgiving
and then Christmas right away, and Anna's not feeling it.
You're you know what's going on, Annah.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
I'm having a hard time getting excited for the holidays,
and I feel like it's been this way for like
the past maybe four years for me. I used to
love Christmas, so I'm a Christmas baby. I was born
four days before Christmas. Growing up, I was super excited
all the time. Love snow, love decorating the tree. Now
I'm older, I live by myself. I'm single, which I
(00:33):
think has a lot to do with it, and the
holidays just make me feel lonely and stressed out. So
going back to my parents' house, my sister has a
husband and kids. She's doing her thing with them. My
parents are together, and I just feel like I don't
have any Like, I don't have anyone.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I don't have.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Kids to like get excited about. I don't have a
person that I'm spending it with. When I go home,
all my aunts and uncles just want to ask me
if I'm getting married anytime soon, And like it's a
lot on top of just having to buy everyone gifts,
I feel like it's so much pressure and I almost
feel guilty for not being excited at Is it.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Tough to be single during the holidays?
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Is?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I think so?
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I mean maybe people would say that you don't have
to worry about buying someone gifts or anything, but at
least now that all of my friends.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Are in relationships and stuff, it's harder for me.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Would you do last year?
Speaker 2 (01:30):
See, I always go out of town, so I think
like last year I went to Miami. I left out
on Christmas because I would just rather not deal with it.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, do something for yourself.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
It's interesting though, because if you do that, I wonder
and obviously you must not have, but I would feel
more lonely be in there, even though you're you know,
probably doing lots of alcohol and drugs to kind of
keep your keeping. It's more like, but I would feel
like you're drowning your sorrows a little bit and other place,
(02:00):
and then it makes you even lonelier.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I just feel like I don't think about the holidays,
Like if I'm laying on the beach, like getting a suntan,
It's like, is it even Christmas?
Speaker 4 (02:09):
All?
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Right, who's also sharing this right now? Who's not not
feeling it? And is it because you're single and you
don't want to have to deal with going home to
the holidays and seeing family open sweaters together Christmas? I'm
into the Cardigans lately. I've been really Chelsea says the
(02:30):
name she goes you are a Cardigan fanatic. I know
it's fun. You see one. I got one that's really good.
It's a really good when I got.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Just wait to see it. Kevin your single as well,
but I guess you have Joe exactly.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
I'm I didn't want to just dive into that, but
holidays are better when you have kids. But it reignites
exactly what you say you miss from being a child.
You used to love the snow, and even though we
don't have snow, you see a child's face, they still
have that youthful energy of everything that you love when
you were a youth and in love with Christmas.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
They just reignite that flame. But what if Josiah's MOhm
does take that's Thanksgiving.
Speaker 6 (03:07):
He's not going anywhere for Christmas. We're not playing that.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
But what is she Remember you guys are having a
sleepover and making a baby.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Even Thanksgiving, though, what if she's gone for that? That
would be tough one.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
Well, this year, in particular, Girard is having the old
school Thanksgiving where everybody's gonna forego their individual plans and
all meet at one particular house, so it'll again reignite
that childhood flame where that's what we did when we
were kids.
Speaker 7 (03:30):
I'm really I like, though, because we talked last week,
have you talked about it specifically? And I know I've
talked about it many times, especially since I got divorced.
When the holidays start to look different from how you
remember it when you were little, it's it is really
tough motor. You talked about it with the boys. It
is so tough to grasp because you you it's comforting.
(03:51):
You want it to be the same and how you've
always remembered it. And I actually do think that it's
a good thing that you do something for yourself during
the holiday, like go to Miami or come up with
something that fills you up so that you don't feel
depleted by this like emptiness of not of it not
being the same.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
And I also love doing that, but I do think
that then I feel bad for my family because they're like,
where's Anna? We want Anna here?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
And Anna's nice here.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
And especially if family is going through tougher time at
this time. So can I tell you something interesting? Yeah?
You talking about this now makes it even harder for
you because you live in literally the heart of Christmas Land,
because they're about to light the tree and downtown Detroit.
She lives not that far. And I know you got
that big old Hudson bear sitting out there, you know,
looking beautiful out in front of that. I always think
(04:41):
that if you're somebody that's going through what you're going through,
could you imagine working in them all and every day
you got to go walk by Sanna and Center Court.
Although happy, although I wonder if that would actually still
make you go, bah humbug? You know what's going on? Sarah?
How you doing?
Speaker 7 (04:56):
I'm good?
Speaker 8 (04:56):
How are you guys good?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Are you also not excited about the holidays?
Speaker 8 (05:03):
Number?
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Really?
Speaker 8 (05:08):
With the economy the way it is, My daughter's birthday.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Is two weeks before and then Christmas.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
It's hard speaking a single parent.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
It's hard make it all that magic happen yourself.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Yeah, are you how old your daughter?
Speaker 8 (05:29):
She'll be sixteen two days after the jingle Ball.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
And that's man a fellow sagittarius.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Do you have jingle Ball tickets? Do you have tickets
to tell Lydia give her tickets to jingle Ball? Can
we give you tickets to jingle Ball and you take
your daughter and say it's a little Christmas gift from you.
Speaker 8 (05:45):
Yes, that would be awesome because she's been begging to go.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
All right, we're getting your tickets. Hold on one second, Okay,
I want to give your tickets and I want you
I want you to go, and I want you to
literally go in just for a night. No cares you guys,
just sing along there everything, okay, okay, thank you, Sarah.
I'm so sorry that that you're you're waking up this morning.
We're making you cry. But I hope that that makes
(06:08):
you happy, puts a little smile.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
That's actually living work.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Oh geez, Oh my gosh. What do you do for
a living that you worked?
Speaker 4 (06:14):
So I've called multiple times I take care of the
mentally disabled, a.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Special person, and so do I. I'm right here with you.
I don't right now, I think I've used this. Actually
take care of you? No, you take care of the geriatric.
That's me what's going on? How you doing, Rachel?
Speaker 8 (06:33):
Good morning, guys. I'm doing okay. How are you guys?
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Good?
Speaker 1 (06:35):
What's going on?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Good?
Speaker 9 (06:38):
Well?
Speaker 8 (06:39):
This holiday season is our first that without my mom.
She passed away about four months ago, and I have
a six year old, so it's kind of hard, you know,
you got to put on a smile for her. That's
probably the hardest thing, honestly.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
The first when it comes to this process.
Speaker 7 (06:59):
Yeah, when you lose when kids, what are you going
to do to remember your mom for the holiday?
Speaker 8 (07:07):
Well, my husband took me yesterday to Bronner's and I
got uh an ornament for her. We're still going to
do Christmas cookies with our girls, Yes, with our girls. Yes,
we would do my grandma's recipes. Yeah, so we'll do
that with them this year too.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
And make sure you keep doing it, don't do it
well past that. That's kind of something that you always.
Speaker 8 (07:31):
Do, Yes, yep. And I want the girls to remember
that forever, you know, Ggi and then now Mom and
Aunt beck Which is Becky's first day back to work today, So.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
Hey, Becky, go hey, did have a special cookie recipe?
Speaker 8 (07:49):
Oh my gosh, yes, there's so many. My grandma was
famous for her Russian teacakes and people are already asking
me for them, so we gotta get to cook in soon.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Do that. Yeah, seriously, the memories will live through you
and then we'll be passed on to another generation because
you'll give them to your daughter. So that's awesome. I'm
praying for you, but I'm happy to know that you
guys are continuing with all the great things that she did.
Alexis is single, and she said that she feels the
pressure of her families at this time. Is that right, Alexis?
Speaker 9 (08:23):
Actually, I'm in a relationship, but the pressures that I
feel from family around the holidays because my boyfriend and
I don't live together and we're not married yet is
absolutely insane.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
And with lots of therapy, you know, it's gotten better,
but like, yeah, I get questioned all the time when
we're gonna move in together and we're gonna get married
and we're gonna.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Have babies, and it's a lot.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Do you want that? Is that where your hope is?
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Yeah, I mean eventually, but it kind of got pressure
on me. It kind of makes me second. I guess
myself and I see all my cousins like doing, and
then like all of them are like, oh, well, how come.
Speaker 8 (09:06):
You're not married?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Now you're not living together yet, things like that, So
I know.
Speaker 9 (09:10):
It will happen.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Yeah, you're young, you know. Yeah, us you got tons
of time.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Seriously, Yeah, yeah for sure.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
So I feel you, Anna, If you feel the pressure,
I guarantee your boyfriend feels even more pressure going over
to your family's house.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
Oh yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
How long have you all been together?
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Almost ten years?
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Oh that's the pressure. That is a long time. I know. Yeah,
it's time. I take us so long, Georgina, what's up, Georgina.
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Good morning. I just want to say, Anna, I feel you.
I know the holidays can be really tough, like we
have family stuff going on too. I just want to
encourage you to like really lean in though, and like
your nephews look up to you so much, and like
the way you talk about them like you're a big
part of their world, and like I encourage you to
create some traditions with them and like, you know, hold
(10:08):
on to that, like they're only going to be young
for so long and time goes by so fast.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
True, you know you did you hear when they called
into the show, and they were so excited.
Speaker 7 (10:20):
The Christmas stuff. That should be your thing.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
With them and have them spend the night. Oh my god,
that would be so fun. Give mom and you know
a night to do nothing, you know, maybe go shopping
for them. You know that's cool, that would be fun. Seriously, Uh,
just make sure that you clean that place up a
little bit, hide all the crazy spottles. What's up, Vicky?
How you doing? VICKI, Hey, good morning, Happy Monday, Happy Monday.
(10:47):
Well this doesn't seem like a happy Monday when we're
talking about a topic like this, but go ahead. Well, yeah,
I have the opposite.
Speaker 10 (10:53):
I get irritated that literally my entire life. And I
mean my daughter just turned twenty one one, so we're
talking a lot of yours that we always have to
go somewhere.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Oh yeah, you can't have it, just.
Speaker 10 (11:08):
Like never just been able to have like a husband,
daughter and I just like open our gifts, hang on
our pajamas all day. So I have to worry about that.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
We went through that in our family, and and Chelsea
just said to everybody, if you want to come here,
you can, but we're doing it on our own. Yeah,
I mean you should you set the ground rules on that.
You're a grown woman obligated.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
There comes a point where you have to you have
to start your own tradition and you have to do
what you want.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
And you know, and when.
Speaker 10 (11:35):
You we've tried and it's it becomes uh, then it
becomes a heated thing for a very long period of time.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
What the nationality are you? What? What's your background?
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (11:47):
Mine is just.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
American.
Speaker 10 (11:50):
My husband's family is uh Romanian.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Okay, because I was gonna say it sounds like a
you got got a little bit of ethnic going on there. Yeah,
oh yeah, we have, we have that from his side.
That's where you just want to be a good old
fashioned mutt. Don't even know what you are exactly.
Speaker 10 (12:07):
Not even my family because they're so big, they're all
used to used to go to grandma's. Yeah yeah, well
we're all parents now, or you guys are all parents now.
We should just go to our parents or they come
here and yeah, so I just get mildly irritated rather
than upset or everything.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
So, I mean it's different for everybody, but well, good
luck with everything. I know there's the opposite as well
for people. Yeah see that, and it could be like
that you could actually have to deal with Vicki's family.
I like that everybody live through other people's misery in there.
Hold on, Emily works retail and she says she's miserable
because of the customers. Is that right?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (12:48):
Also, first time, long time?
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Where do you work, Emily? Those people get knots, don't
they They and they throw piles of clothes on the ground.
They unfold things. You got to go refold them. How
long does it take you, guys to re put that
story back together at the end of the night.
Speaker 8 (13:11):
If we're like fully staffed, it doesn't take too long.
They make us stay like an extra half hour after
we close to clean up the store.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Right. I would hate that somebody was telling me that
they work in Macy's it takes an hour at the
end of the night to put everything together because people
are yeah, and then you're that's an hour that you're
away from your family or you want to get the
hell out of there. So all right, Well, this, by
the way, was an uplifting topic. Anna, Did we help
(13:41):
you with everybody everyone else's misery? No, it's real.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
I mean it did put into perspective that it could
be a lot worse.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
You could have somebody somebody else's life here right now,
right look at that it put out a smile day.
Thank you, guys for sharing your misery with us, hero
making sure that you actually make all of us feel better.
It is mojo in the morning. The holidays are here.
I mean, it's weird to think that we've got Thanksgiving
and then Christmas right away, and Anna's not feeling it.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Tough to be single during the holidays?

Speaker 2 (01:17):
I mean maybe people would say that you don't have

Alexis is single, and she said that she feels the
pressure of her families at this time. Is that right, Alexis?

feel from family around the holidays because my boyfriend and
I don't live together and we're not married yet is
absolutely insane.

Have babies, and it's a lot.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1 (08:50):

Speaker 4 (08:54):
Yeah, I mean eventually, but it kind of got pressure
on me. It kind of makes me second. I guess
myself and I see all my cousins like doing, and
then like all of them are like, oh, well, how come.

Speaker 5 (09:46):
Good morning. I just want to say, Anna, I feel you.
I know the holidays can be really tough, like we
have family stuff going on too. I just want to
encourage you to like really lean in though, and like
your nephews look up to you so much, and like
the way you talk about them like you're a big
part of their world, and like I encourage you to
create some traditions with them and like, you know, hold
(10:08):
on to that, like they're only going to be young
for so long and time goes by so fast.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
True, you know you did you hear when they called
into the show, and they were so excited.
Speaker 7 (10:20):
The Christmas stuff. That should be your thing.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
With them and have them spend the night. Oh my god,
that would be so fun. Give mom and you know
a night to do nothing, you know, maybe go shopping
for them. You know that's cool, that would be fun. Seriously, Uh,
just make sure that you clean that place up a
little bit, hide all the crazy spottles. What's up, Vicky?
How you doing? VICKI, Hey, good morning, Happy Monday, Happy Monday.
(10:47):
Well this doesn't seem like a happy Monday when we're
talking about a topic like this, but go ahead. Well, yeah,
I have the opposite.
Speaker 10 (10:53):
I get irritated that literally my entire life. And I
mean my daughter just turned twenty one one, so we're
talking a lot of yours that we always have to
go somewhere.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Oh yeah, you can't have it, just.
Speaker 10 (11:08):
Like never just been able to have like a husband,
daughter and I just like open our gifts, hang on
our pajamas all day. So I have to worry about that.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
We went through that in our family, and and Chelsea
just said to everybody, if you want to come here,
you can, but we're doing it on our own. Yeah,
I mean you should you set the ground rules on that.
You're a grown woman obligated.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
There comes a point where you have to you have
to start your own tradition and you have to do
what you want.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
And you know, and when.
Speaker 10 (11:35):
You we've tried and it's it becomes uh, then it
becomes a heated thing for a very long period of time.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
What the nationality are you? What? What's your background?
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (11:47):
Mine is just.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
American.
Speaker 10 (11:50):
My husband's family is uh Romanian.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Okay, because I was gonna say it sounds like a
you got got a little bit of ethnic going on there. Yeah,
oh yeah, we have, we have that from his side.
That's where you just want to be a good old
fashioned mutt. Don't even know what you are exactly.
Speaker 10 (12:07):
Not even my family because they're so big, they're all
used to used to go to grandma's. Yeah yeah, well
we're all parents now, or you guys are all parents now.
We should just go to our parents or they come
here and yeah, so I just get mildly irritated rather
than upset or everything.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
So, I mean it's different for everybody, but well, good
luck with everything. I know there's the opposite as well
for people. Yeah see that, and it could be like
that you could actually have to deal with Vicki's family.
I like that everybody live through other people's misery in there.
Hold on, Emily works retail and she says she's miserable
because of the customers. Is that right?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (12:48):
Also, first time, long time?
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Where do you work, Emily? Those people get knots, don't
they They and they throw piles of clothes on the ground.
They unfold things. You got to go refold them. How
long does it take you, guys to re put that
story back together at the end of the night.
Speaker 8 (13:11):
If we're like fully staffed, it doesn't take too long.
They make us stay like an extra half hour after
we close to clean up the store.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Right. I would hate that somebody was telling me that
they work in Macy's it takes an hour at the
end of the night to put everything together because people
are yeah, and then you're that's an hour that you're
away from your family or you want to get the
hell out of there. So all right, Well, this, by
the way, was an uplifting topic. Anna, Did we help
(13:41):
you with everybody everyone else's misery? No, it's real.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
I mean it did put into perspective that it could
be a lot worse.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
You could have somebody somebody else's life here right now,
right look at that it put out a smile day.
Thank you, guys for sharing your misery with us, hero
