Speaker 3 (01:40):
Just I can't.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's so funny.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
You're at the age where you go to put things
together and all that stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
That's another thing. It's like, how can one have to
spend so much money on a kid's toy to then
have to put There's an option if you buy stuff
on like a Wayfair for example, where to be like,
doant to pay an extra hundred for someone to play together?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I do, Yes I do.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Fireman's like, we're not paying an extra hundred to have
somebody put it together. But then he opens up the
box and sees that there's like seven thousand trews. We
got this little kitchen for her because that's all she
wants for Christmas. She keeps asking for a kitchen with
a sink, and this thing. I'm not kidding you. Five
hundred screws, five hundred. I when we took it out
(02:22):
of the box, I was like, how are we going
to do this?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Crazy?
Speaker 4 (02:25):
But all the toys you got to put together. Now,
it wasn't like that we were little. You just roll
up the toys of rust and grab it and go.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
It's about size though, now right, and space. So they
try to know as much as they can. Yeah, before
you just go back this big box, put it in
the back of a pickup truck.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
And you're good. Yeah, now that's so true. Yeah, they
build a toy.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
Once I saw the box and I knew what was
to be built, I was like, we are in.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
Can I give you the best advice you'll ever get. Yeah,
And the fireman's a handy gas so he's gonna want
to do this. When you buy a swing set, do
not allow him to put it together. It'll divorce you guys.
And not just that it takes forever. Pay somebody. We
had to pay somebody like six hundred bucks to put
it together. Yeah, best money ever spent. And they do
it within like a time.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
I posted the little kitchen, like the pieces all on
the floor with the screws and everything, and this woman
writes me and she goes, we bought that kitchen last year.
She goes, my husband and I tried to put it together.
It literally caused so much problems, like so many issues
between the two of us. She goes, my father had
to come to the house diffuse the situation and put
(03:33):
it together like that, because it really can. And it
gets to the point where as his assistant, it's a
lot of sitting around for me. So then I'm on
my phone and he'll be like part sixteen and I'm like,
you know, so it's almost better for someone to do solo, really,
and then the other person does something else.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
It's just what I hated, Like the whys why isn't
that fitting in there? I don't know he does.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
He's not really like hey, he'll go, I guess, well,
we got the one box where it was missing parts.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
And this is an every time thing with him, and
I'll be like, no, no, no, let me what part is it.
Let me see the let me see the diagram, let
me check it out. It's always in the box. But
once he gets upset, it's done, like he can't recover.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Put it his way.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
He started he started building, and he's like, why isn't
this looking right in the picture?
Speaker 2 (04:25):
And I could tell right away. I was like you
then inside out he was like, it's just not it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
And and the thing is is you have to get
ahead of it, because what are we.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Going to do that all on.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
I have done that before before.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
We have like five things that need to be built.
I can't. We can't do that all on Christmas Eve.
If we'd be up until the kids got up.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I built the Barbie dollhouse one time. It wasn't to
the middle of the night, like like we're just hanging
out like that's I ran into him. He asked me
for some cookies.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
You know, he's like here, you should have gone to
Africa to building. He doesn't come there before.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Yeah no, And I don't want that. I want Christmas
Eve to be like semi chill situation. But listen, they'll
be last minute things to do. But like we got
we also got her this like kind of like a
little closet, like a miniature closet to hang up all
of her because she's now into like wearing the princess
dresses and the shoes and everything. It's another one when
(05:38):
I saw the box to it, I'm like, hell, how
is it fitting in that it's gonna be a thousand parts?
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Why not just pay somebody?
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Now he won't, he won't, and I'm not even like
it's not not even gonna he will not.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
But what if you do it behind his back?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Off to the crib and what and then he comes
home and there's just a minute building.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
I paid somebody. It's easier that way. We don't fight.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Yeah, no, it's uh, it's great. And I know all
the parents know what we're talking about. Because it's foreign.
You don't even have to worry about any of them.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
I'm so happy I don't have to worry about that. Yeah,
I never one thing. I hate wrapping up gifts and
the X was nasty and wrapping them now stuff them
in a paper on the top were good.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Here, I'm not gonna lie. See I'm a bad person.
You can see a lot of backs I do. I
do wrap some of them, but I hate rapping. And
there are some people that it's an art for them
and their packages are like beautiful. On Christmas, I always
look at the Kardashians pages. They obviously hire people to
but they all have their specific wrapping paper with the
bows that the packages are so beautiful. Not in my
house if you really looked at the edges of mine.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
It's sometimes I used to wrap my joints and be
no back too sized it.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Right, Yeah, so I just laid I've done that.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
Yeah, you don't see Tollers or Russ's son on the
back of it, and they're like, oh my god, yeah,
rip that before you notice what's going on.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
When we were little too, and they had like lay away, Yeah,
you could pick everything out and just they would hold
it and you could pay it off slow.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
Like that. We used to I feel shopping over there
and go crazy.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
My mother used to do it like a Sears.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yeah, they had it, like I feel like they must
still have it.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
They do.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
It's called after pay and I do it every day.
