You can just say what.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Dashy and Morning Show with DJ four and it's Santi Morning.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Bustin's number one for hip hop jam in ninety four
or five. Hi, everybody hop on the journey with me.
That is the saga of my life. So we know
that the bathroom in like our master bathroom, was supposed
(00:28):
to be underway to be redone in July. I think
we can go ahead and call it February. At this point,
it's damn near February. This is the last week of January.
That bathroom is still not done. I am going to
do I'm going to be the person that I tell
myself not to be, like when I believe that Kanye's
album is going to come out on the day. They
(00:49):
told me that they are coming this morning at seven
point thirty to finish the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
But last week off there, you told me they were
going to finish last week.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I know Santi, I said, come on the journey with me,
please play the game.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Sorry, I'm right back on the plane. I'm not on
the plane.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
These are the same people that said they were going
to show up in January of twenty twenty four, and
they showed up and descend us something like that. I'm exaggerating,
but it's like six eight months ago.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah, so let's go to guys, come with me to
the land of come on. Yeah right, okay, So here
we are. So today they're supposed to finish the bathroom.
There's not much to be done. There's some patchwork, there's
you know, something minor, a shower door. And I finally
got to the point where I was. I sent a
(01:33):
text to the project manager and I just said, I wrote, respectfully,
I put respectfully, I want to be done with you
in this project. I can't do this anymore. I can't
live like this. It's just crazy. The kids are tripping
over the paper and there's tools everywhere, Like it means
it's done. Why can't we just wrap this up and
finish it? I mean, it's it's I'm not a I'm
(01:55):
not a contractor. It's maybe three hours worth of work
to be done, and then obviously we still need to paint.
But I'm not like that doesn't concern me. That is
that's nothing. I can have things in there. I can
have my toothbrush in the bathroom, you know what I'm saying.
So the fireman and I are having this conversation over
the weekend, and he's like it's almost done. He's trying
(02:15):
to like calm me down. He's like, you know what,
you've been wanting a new fridge because our fridge is
some days it's not closing. Even when we close the door,
the seal is broken. And it's just I mean, listen,
it's not our fridge. It's old who they passed. Multiple
owners could have had that fridge. It's just it's time
for a new fridge. He's like, I'm gonna I'm gonna
(02:35):
take my baby to Low's. I'm gonna get you a
new fridge. He can't say that. He doesn't talked to
he doesn't speak like that. But but but whatever. So
we get to Lows. We have our you know, we
got the tape measure out like preparedness people. Okay, we
know the little box in which the fridge is gonna fit.
We find the fridge. It's a French door. It's an LG.
(02:57):
Because we did our research. Everyone said, don't you get
a Samsung, Get an LG. Those are the good fridges.
They last. Sorry, if either one of you have a
Samsung and guy comes over, he's like, we got we
got major discounts happening right now. You can get this
cool done. We walk over. We're doing the paperwork, were
fridge is bought. Look at us like we did something.
(03:17):
We got it done. Guy goes, we can deliver this
thing tomorrow as in Sunday tomorrow, said sir, you speak
of my language. No one else in my life when
it comes to this kind of stuff gets it done.
I like you, he was Mike. Mike's like, will someone
be there? Fireman's like, oh, damn Ash, I'm going to
be working. So are you? Are you good? I call
(03:39):
my mother up. Can you just come and and you know,
mind the girls while I because I have to take
every thing about. Everything's got to come out of the
old fridge. They're gonna take away the old fridge. We're
gonna put the new one in. We got breast milk,
we got all of the important things. My mom said,
no problem, walk come over. We get the call. Hey,
we're five minutes out. I start going to work. I
(04:00):
remove everything from the old fridge. You can only imagine
where this is set of Everything is out of the
new fridge. It's all I mean, my breast milk's everywhere,
like it's out, go downstairs. I say hello to the
to the guys who are the movers of the fridge.
The fridge movers guys like, ah, yeah, can I just
(04:21):
like see I didn't like the tone all. I didn't
like the tones. Can I just see where we're so
I show them where the new fridge is going, where
the fridge is and I show him, Hey, there's multiple
ways we could do it. You could come up the
back way, or you could come in the front, whatever
is easier. I show him the back. This doesn't This
won't mean anything to a lot of people, but for
(04:41):
people who own sneakers. He was in Jordan's. Now, if
you know Jordan's, they are flat and you're not gonna
be moving stuff. You're not gonna be doing like a
workout in Jordan's. Like, because they're f they slip. Okay.
It would be like putting on a pair of old
(05:02):
navy thong flip flops and trying to move something important.
You're gonna slip and slide. Okay, show him the back.
He uh, He's like, yeah, is there anyone else in
the house you got? It's just me, is it? I
don't want to have to ask you to shovel and
break up this ice. But like, there's snow right here,
and he shows me that his Jordans are like slipping
(05:25):
on the snow, and I'm just staring at him because
there's because there's only two little patches of snow. Really,
other than that, it's grass because we got that snow
what a week and a half ago. Also, it's New England, sir,
you knew there was snow on the ground. Why are
you coming to the house. So he essentially tells me
he will not move the fridge because of the two
snow patches unless I get out there and shovel, which
(05:46):
I was totally fine to do. But under the snow
was a little layer of ice and I was trying
to break it up. I couldn't. I had to put
salts on it, and the salt wasn't gonna happen in seconds.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
He left here left, Yeah, they don't wait. I get it.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
But like he left, if there's an obstacle, you figure
out like another way around.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I mean the thing, I don't care, guys. It was
two patches and not and I'm not saying this two patches.
So now I gotta go back up and reload the
whole fridge because the kitchen is it looks like a
bomb went off and there. It's awful. It's just terrible.
So I reload the whole thing. I called the fire man.
(06:29):
Mind you, I had shut the water off to the house,
like it's just you have to shut the water off
to get the It just was a whole process. And
then we hopped back on the phone with them. We're
trying to reschedule for today. I had to go out
there and like break up the ice. Well, the fireman
was like, put the salt down, and then all tomorrow morning,
(06:49):
you know, when I get home, like break up the
ice and like and and and get them a clean path.
I even said, could I lay a sheet down because
it's it's just too little, no gone left. So now
they're going to try to come back today at some
point in the afternoon. And redelivered the fridge, which now
I'm convinced like it won't fit or something because my
(07:09):
measurements will have been off if something's gonna talk about
not exactly. Oh, it's funny that you bring that up. Yeah,
there's a lot of which I would have never thought
that any of this mattered. But yeah, there's a lot
of things. So anyways, fast forward, like the day was
just Leayla had an accident. She peed all over the
(07:30):
white couch, the baby projectile vomited on me. The fridge
thing happened. So then later on in the evening, Leyla
wanted me to sing ring around the Rosie, and a
lot of people were hitting me up. Some were saying
that this goes hard. Other people were like, are you okay?
Because this is how I was singing it.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Bring around the rosie, ring around the rosie, pocket full
of the posies, pocket full of the posies.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Ashes, ashes, damn, dawn, down down damn. Everyone's like, yo,
are you okay? Nor around the rosie? Yes?
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Oh damn, damn damn.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
No, I'm not okay. It's just the like we've talked
about it owning a house, like it's just there's Oh.
I really thought to myself, it's going to be different
than the bathroom. We're going to get the fridge. The
fridge is instant, it's plugged in, boom.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
The fridge is more manageable because, like the bathroom thing
has been going on for how long and now they
keep delaying it delaying.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
It's never got a confirmation text for them to come
this morning.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
So let's be honest, January twenty seven, and this was
supposed to be finished by when.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Like August August.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
You gotta be patient. You got to be paid.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
And the problem with them is that they overextend themselves
so they don't have the hope because it's that's the thing.
The project manager can't do any of the work, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
There's they probably got like twenty open jobs right now.
But again I get it, but that's close.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
That's on your fault.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Close ring closed ones.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
They're not honest, they're not coming indicative, they not you
know what I mean. They just won't tell you, hey,
this is because then they won't get your money.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
I know. And it's like just close it, like there
are five things that need to be done in that bathroom.
Close it so, you know, so you never have to
hear from me.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Do you owe them? Still? Can't you just close it
out and have a handyman come put to the shower door?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
And now I'm in with them enough. I'm not no,
I get what you're saying, but I gotta go find
a handing. It's just no, I gotta saying in my house.
There's all the papers so that they don't walk on
the floors and stuff, and that it's been there for
so long that it's curling up and we're tripping over it.
The toddler's falling. It's just it's it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
But you know what, at the end of the day,
when this is all said and done, it's going to
look amazing.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Like a couple of years, when will that be.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I won't have a fridge, gat no fridge, no bathroom
and just me with my you know what, my hands
hanging out, because that's all is Vachina
You can just say what.
