WEBVTT
00:00:10.855 --> 00:00:11.676
Good morning.
00:00:12.221 --> 00:00:13.044
Good morning.
00:00:14.381 --> 00:00:15.385
It's still December.
00:00:18.042 --> 00:00:18.745
I'm feeling it.
00:00:18.745 --> 00:00:23.170
God knows I am.
00:00:23.170 --> 00:00:25.728
I just didn't even know what to say.
00:00:26.059 --> 00:00:27.846
I was like it's still December.
00:00:28.667 --> 00:00:33.710
Gosh, I mean it's like it's the quickest month, but like no, no, no.
00:00:34.091 --> 00:00:36.847
It's not, it is frenetic.
00:00:36.847 --> 00:00:40.088
I'm going to use the word frenetic Quick.
00:00:40.088 --> 00:00:42.767
No, quick to me is like a flu shot.
00:00:42.767 --> 00:00:46.970
Like quick to me is like this, is like taxes.
00:00:49.042 --> 00:00:50.828
That's what I mean, like it snuck up on me.
00:00:50.828 --> 00:00:51.972
That's what I mean.
00:00:52.981 --> 00:01:00.448
We had the shortest gap between Thanksgiving and Christmas that we've had in a long time because of the way that the weekends fell and where Christmas fell.
00:01:00.448 --> 00:01:02.460
So we actually lost a weekend.
00:01:02.460 --> 00:01:03.543
I believe is what we did.
00:01:03.543 --> 00:01:05.689
Yes, Word on the street.
00:01:05.689 --> 00:01:10.408
What I've heard from the other moms is that we were cheated by a weekend.
00:01:11.329 --> 00:01:11.629
Yes.
00:01:12.090 --> 00:01:13.393
What in the world?
00:01:13.614 --> 00:01:14.682
And it's like that next year.
00:01:16.465 --> 00:01:17.388
You already looked ahead.
00:01:17.929 --> 00:01:19.632
Yes, because I hated it that much this year.
00:01:21.240 --> 00:01:22.322
No, I'm dead serious.
00:01:22.322 --> 00:01:22.905
For now.
00:01:22.905 --> 00:01:26.091
We don't even get to like, pretend, like it's not going to be like that next year.
00:01:26.091 --> 00:01:26.593
You've already.
00:01:27.099 --> 00:01:28.743
I'm like I turned to the last page of the book.
00:01:28.743 --> 00:01:29.504
I needed to know.
00:01:29.504 --> 00:01:31.007
I needed to know, Yep.
00:01:31.709 --> 00:01:32.391
Of all people.
00:01:33.091 --> 00:01:35.025
I'm so surprised that's how bad I hated it.
00:01:35.025 --> 00:01:43.865
I mean, that's how awful this has been, yes, but you know what it's done after today?
00:01:45.206 --> 00:01:46.468
Check, check.
00:01:47.269 --> 00:01:53.492
I am packed up, so the gecko is taking his first road trip.
00:01:53.853 --> 00:01:56.435
I know, so you're really like taking him with you.
00:01:57.516 --> 00:01:57.816
Becca.
00:01:58.277 --> 00:01:59.177
You're not worried about this.
00:02:02.219 --> 00:02:05.691
Oh, I am genuinely concerned and then, I'm here by myself with the gecko.
00:02:05.691 --> 00:02:08.085
Why are you bringing him?
00:02:08.085 --> 00:02:13.973
Well, because we don't want to have to bring somebody to come feed him and spray him and stuff.
00:02:13.973 --> 00:02:15.544
Does he eat every day?
00:02:15.544 --> 00:02:20.707
He eats every other day, but his humidity is the issue, because he has to be.
00:02:20.707 --> 00:02:25.375
I hate the word moist, but kind of moist.
00:02:27.043 --> 00:02:28.649
Is there not something we can get for him?
00:02:28.649 --> 00:02:30.243
Well, he has one.
00:02:30.364 --> 00:02:31.449
But just listen, it's a thing.
00:02:31.449 --> 00:02:33.563
So anyway, clark has packed him a suitcase.
00:02:34.646 --> 00:02:37.372
True story A little sponge, isn't he a little sponge?
00:02:38.001 --> 00:02:44.497
No, because if it's too wet, he gets a respiratory infection, oh God.
00:02:44.497 --> 00:02:50.326
So anyway, I'm packing up with the lizard, because you're bringing him to your mom's right.
00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:59.284
Yes, so we're taking a gecko road trip so that I'll be Does he have like a little travel carry case that he goes in, or are you bringing his whole terrarium?
00:02:59.645 --> 00:03:01.766
No, it's like a medium-sized one.
00:03:01.766 --> 00:03:12.292
But I'm the one who has to take him out and put him in this thing to get him to the Clark school, to pick her up, to go get.
00:03:12.292 --> 00:03:13.394
Anyway, it's a thing.
00:03:13.394 --> 00:03:15.026
So I'm a little concerned, but it'll be fine.
00:03:15.026 --> 00:03:15.568
It's fine.
00:03:15.707 --> 00:03:22.514
I know Like if something happens, you know like I don't even bring my dog anywhere.
00:03:23.775 --> 00:03:31.518
Listen, and I've got to run by your place here in a few and I can't stay and catch up and chat and get puppy snuggles because I got a lizard in the car.
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:34.286
Gosh, she's already over 30 pounds.
00:03:34.286 --> 00:03:35.628
She was just in my lap, you saw her.
00:03:35.628 --> 00:03:36.752
She's going to be so big.
00:03:37.461 --> 00:03:38.746
I love it, though she's so cute.
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:43.945
She's actually so long story short, not fun story.
00:03:43.945 --> 00:03:49.974
Last time we recorded I left the two dogs on the porch.
00:03:49.974 --> 00:03:56.751
The video what in the brutal like I cannot like.
00:03:56.751 --> 00:04:00.649
I could have cried, and this is like a classic mom December.
00:04:00.649 --> 00:04:09.646
Unfortunately, I actually did not have time to cry, which is really messed up to say, but I think it just needs to be acknowledged.
00:04:09.646 --> 00:04:10.951
I wanted to cry.
00:04:10.951 --> 00:04:12.818
I did not have the time.
00:04:12.818 --> 00:04:13.760
I actually could not.
00:04:13.760 --> 00:04:18.401
I started to well up in my eyes and I was like we actually do not have time for your emotions.
00:04:18.401 --> 00:04:20.002
So cause I?
00:04:20.002 --> 00:04:21.305
We had to get to Myrtle.
00:04:21.305 --> 00:04:28.524
We had competitions all weekend, I threw the plant out, I threw the plant out, I threw all the dirt out.
00:04:29.107 --> 00:04:30.391
There are two more.
00:04:30.391 --> 00:04:35.665
She's now, there's a new chosen one, so I'm pretty sure we're going to be a plant free household pretty soon.
00:04:35.665 --> 00:04:45.399
Here I don't have it in me, like, and then I have a piece of Lily inside which I've had forever and she started wrecking on that the other day.
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:46.701
I was like get the piece Lily.
00:04:46.701 --> 00:04:51.571
Like I don't even know why, and right now.
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:55.622
So the old dog.
00:04:55.622 --> 00:04:57.286
It was so funny.
00:04:58.088 --> 00:04:58.428
I will.
00:04:58.428 --> 00:04:59.050
I'm going to share it.
00:04:59.050 --> 00:05:02.423
So the old dog, sweet Bindi, is on the porch.
00:05:02.423 --> 00:05:08.654
I cannot imagine what was going through her mind when the puppy.
00:05:08.654 --> 00:05:12.807
I am sure she was just like whoa dude.
00:05:12.807 --> 00:05:16.713
I don't think we should do this.
00:05:16.939 --> 00:05:19.129
Like you got to chill, Like you're going to get in trouble.
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:27.750
She probably was like oh, um, like she has such first child energy.
00:05:27.750 --> 00:05:34.146
I'm quite certain she was just shitting her pants with her eyes wide.
00:05:34.146 --> 00:05:36.511
She was like no words, okay.
00:05:36.511 --> 00:05:40.803
And so now the puppy I have, I've had to rearrange the whole house for these two dogs.
00:05:40.803 --> 00:05:51.932
So the big crate is now in the dining room area because this old dog is basically incontinent when she sleeps, so that has to be out here.
00:05:51.932 --> 00:05:55.204
Can't be next to my bed because it's stressing me out, because I can.
00:05:55.204 --> 00:05:56.610
I can tell when it happens.
00:05:56.610 --> 00:05:59.680
It's all cleaned up every morning.
00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:00.884
She gets a bath every morning.
00:06:00.884 --> 00:06:07.783
Now the puppy is living her best life on all this padded bedding because she never gets to go in this crate right now.
00:06:07.783 --> 00:06:18.392
So she's like all demure, like laying around and I don't have it locked, she's just in it because it's amazing and she can see me really well.
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:21.869
Well, that's better than her being on the porch and wreaking havoc.
00:06:23.261 --> 00:06:26.230
The old dog's getting some sweet chill time.
00:06:26.230 --> 00:06:28.829
She had a nice bowl of water Food.
00:06:28.829 --> 00:06:33.086
Oh my gosh One's causing chaos.
00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:34.646
Isn't that the way it is, though?
00:06:34.646 --> 00:06:38.670
So yeah, I've never been able to take a pet to my mom's house, so this should be interesting.
00:06:39.271 --> 00:06:41.127
I know I was wondering about that.
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:42.161
So wait, where do the dogs?
00:06:42.201 --> 00:06:42.422
go.
00:06:43.062 --> 00:06:43.502
They go to daycare.
00:06:43.502 --> 00:06:44.103
I was wondering about that.
00:06:44.103 --> 00:06:44.603
So where do the dogs go?
00:06:44.603 --> 00:06:46.185
They go to daycare, they stay, like my three dogs.
00:06:46.887 --> 00:06:50.130
Oh, I was going to ask you where, because I think eventually Brett's going to go to daycare.
00:06:50.331 --> 00:06:51.593
Yeah, they love it there.
00:06:51.593 --> 00:07:02.019
We take them donuts because Boozy's an asshole, so we have to take them donuts every so often so he doesn't get kicked out.
00:07:02.019 --> 00:07:07.762
Oops, because he is a humper sometimes and he is very territorial, but they manage that fine.
00:07:07.762 --> 00:07:09.769
They manage it because they just know it's part of his sparkling personality.
00:07:09.769 --> 00:07:11.334
Yeah, well, you know.
00:07:11.334 --> 00:07:22.882
But so I was getting ready this morning because I woke up at four o'clock to get everything done to make time for recording, because I know we needed to do it, and I had this thought and I had to ask you this Okay.
00:07:23.543 --> 00:07:24.245
I'm waiting again.
00:07:24.245 --> 00:07:29.533
Do you have like weird things that you do before you leave to go on a road trip?
00:07:31.341 --> 00:07:33.548
I'm probably one of the weirdest people that we know.
00:07:33.928 --> 00:07:37.069
Okay, I need to hear all of your weird things and then I'll tell you my weird things.
00:07:37.740 --> 00:07:44.314
I'm thinking you need to give me an example for something trying to think about like, because you know I am like the most, most like.
00:07:44.314 --> 00:07:50.509
Just coming back from going to Myrtle I had to basically start over in the apartment, like everything had to be like.
00:07:50.509 --> 00:07:52.593
I am so neurotic.
00:07:52.980 --> 00:07:53.762
I'm neurotic too.
00:07:53.762 --> 00:07:55.685
So what's that trend on Instagram right now?
00:07:55.826 --> 00:08:03.829
we listen and we don't judge oh yes, we listen and we don't judge okay so when go first?
00:08:03.870 --> 00:08:10.168
Okay so when I travel and I leave the house, I have to have all the toilet seats down.
00:08:11.261 --> 00:08:28.081
Oh, I have to have the toilet seats down anyways, yes, oh, okay, yeah, I don't know, yeah, how many toilet seats down, and now that I have this dog I don't like them open anyways, I just feel like it's a little gross.
00:08:28.081 --> 00:08:35.462
If you think about it, it is, and like I, just I'm a person where, like I do think about like the toilet drain thing, you know, like you hear in, like Florida, like a python will come out or something.
00:08:35.462 --> 00:08:37.126
Oh my god, shut up.
00:08:37.248 --> 00:08:39.072
I will never open the toilet ever again.
00:08:39.072 --> 00:08:43.394
If you tell me that you know how I feel about snakes, I'm I just have like a.
00:08:43.434 --> 00:08:48.291
So I would like to know I would like to hear the lid go up and down a few times if something is going to try to get out.
00:08:48.291 --> 00:08:50.907
I don't want it to just be like a free-for-all.
00:08:50.907 --> 00:09:01.472
So I like the lid down, but I have the boxer Like growing up we had big dogs and they would try to drink out of the toilet.
00:09:01.472 --> 00:09:06.020
She would absolutely try so because the girls will leave it up.
00:09:06.020 --> 00:09:08.908
And I'm like y'all, if you want potty kisses, leave the toilets up.
00:09:08.908 --> 00:09:12.761
Don't want potty kisses, put the toilet down.
00:09:12.761 --> 00:09:15.168
So now everyone's on the same page.
00:09:15.168 --> 00:09:20.264
Because it happened one time and they're like oh my god, she's drinking the water.
00:09:20.264 --> 00:09:25.313
And I was like and now every kiss you get tonight is going to be a potty kiss I love.
00:09:25.313 --> 00:09:27.405
So, okay, what else do you do?
00:09:27.405 --> 00:09:28.249
I am like a big.
00:09:28.249 --> 00:09:28.910
I like toilet.
00:09:30.254 --> 00:09:39.014
Well, I have to have everything perfectly cleaned, same, and I can't have produce in the fridge I can't have.
00:09:39.014 --> 00:09:42.787
I clean my fridge, I clean my pantry.
00:09:42.787 --> 00:09:48.344
Um, sometimes I will pre-grocery shop if it's going to be like pantry stuff and whatever.
00:09:48.344 --> 00:09:51.711
I do not want drama when I get back.
00:09:51.711 --> 00:09:53.230
That's exactly.
00:09:53.230 --> 00:09:56.686
That's me too Clean, I cannot walk.
00:09:56.686 --> 00:09:59.893
I have to walk back into it as if it were like a hotel.
00:10:00.820 --> 00:10:10.667
Same yeah, so maybe I'm not as weird as I thought thought, or maybe I just surround myself with people who are weird like me no, no, and I'm a big like.
00:10:10.726 --> 00:10:14.364
It used to be a joke in my first marriage that we were going to get new countertops for christmas.
00:10:14.364 --> 00:10:16.549
Surprise, we never got new countertops.
00:10:16.549 --> 00:10:27.902
But, um, he would say that because, like I'm a big countertop cleaner every night, I just did it before we got on the podcast to get ready for the podcast.
00:10:28.844 --> 00:10:29.043
Cause.
00:10:29.043 --> 00:10:30.025
We see your counter.
00:10:30.988 --> 00:10:32.892
No, but it's like part of my like.
00:10:32.892 --> 00:10:35.062
I make my bed every morning.
00:10:35.062 --> 00:10:40.260
Sometimes I like to tell myself that I'm going to really have like a wild day and I'm not going to make it.
00:10:40.260 --> 00:10:43.144
But I really only get like eight minutes into the day I'm like okay that's enough.
00:10:43.485 --> 00:10:48.831
Yeah, no, I sometimes will make it up with people in it, your story.
00:10:48.831 --> 00:10:51.056
I'm like you're taking too long.
00:10:51.056 --> 00:10:53.083
I'm gonna make my side when you get out.
00:10:53.083 --> 00:10:56.052
You need to make your side yeah, no, I definitely.
00:10:56.091 --> 00:10:57.782
I mean, I'm not up against that now.
00:10:57.782 --> 00:11:02.889
Um, but yes, I, I really have to have like a clean bed.
00:11:02.889 --> 00:11:05.913
Hold on, I'm going to, I'm walking this dog out.
00:11:05.913 --> 00:11:09.767
You're good, sissy's got some sparkle.
00:11:11.701 --> 00:11:13.948
We listen and we don't judge.
00:11:13.948 --> 00:11:16.385
What else do I do?
00:11:16.385 --> 00:11:17.686
That was neurotic yesterday.
00:11:20.461 --> 00:11:22.408
I'm trying to think what else weird I do.
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:24.706
I put all the stoppers in the tub.
00:11:24.706 --> 00:11:26.610
Oh, you do.
00:11:26.610 --> 00:11:29.720
Uh-huh, yep, why, pythons?
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:32.229
I'm telling you, I'm concerned that a snake's going to get up in that.
00:11:32.860 --> 00:11:34.706
You're not worried, like something's going to drip down.
00:11:34.706 --> 00:11:37.344
I had a friend Wait, what do you mean?
00:11:37.344 --> 00:11:38.086
Drip down?
00:11:38.086 --> 00:11:41.288
Get ready for this, you're okay.
00:11:41.288 --> 00:11:46.763
So this is like two, three years ago.
00:11:46.763 --> 00:11:47.043
Gymnastics.
00:11:47.043 --> 00:11:48.027
I have this good gymnastics friend.
00:11:48.027 --> 00:11:50.294
I haven't seen her in a while because the girls go to.
00:11:50.294 --> 00:12:06.576
They were a jenny moore family, so you know how the different schools think, but for a little bit, pilot and her daughter were on the same team and then, since she's left gymnastics they left for on christmas day they went to another family member's house for like four days.
00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:10.788
Apparently, you're supposed to shut off your water when you leave your house.
00:12:10.788 --> 00:12:13.544
Yeah, okay, well, they didn't.
00:12:13.544 --> 00:12:21.908
And somebody used the upstairs guest bathroom when they were all going pee before they left and the toilet never stopped running.
00:12:21.908 --> 00:12:24.105
I'm not kidding.
00:12:24.105 --> 00:12:25.966
They opened up the garage.
00:12:25.966 --> 00:12:27.725
Water poured out.
00:12:27.725 --> 00:12:30.759
The entire second floor was on the first floor.
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:37.573
They had put 52 swimming pools of water through their house.
00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:42.010
Oh my God, but new fear.
00:12:43.341 --> 00:12:45.505
It was literally the most.
00:12:45.505 --> 00:13:10.826
I mean she is like she has one of those personalities where she was like she's a teacher and she was like I mean they had to like do this whole insurance fight and like she got to basically take her frame and rebuild it, but they actually had to take the entire house down to studs, dry it, bring in things, and it was completely open to the outside Dry it In four days this happened.
00:13:11.259 --> 00:13:30.188
Yes, 52 swimming pools of water came from the second, my husband is going to be listening to this podcast and he's going to make me turn the water off every time we leave the house now it was the most they had just left, all their Christmas stuff, like they just opened it and left.
00:13:30.188 --> 00:13:31.631
How awful.
00:13:32.332 --> 00:13:33.682
It was like one of those.
00:13:34.965 --> 00:13:36.368
What the hell?
00:13:36.368 --> 00:13:39.274
New fear unlocked Good grief.
00:13:39.596 --> 00:13:44.243
So I'm going to get my dream kitchen about 10 years earlier than I was planning.
00:13:44.243 --> 00:13:48.028
Does anyone have any ideas on what they would put in their dream kitchen?
00:13:48.028 --> 00:13:51.230
Because I hadn't been thinking about that and we were like what do you mean?
00:13:51.230 --> 00:13:54.394
She was like well, I mean it was.
00:13:54.394 --> 00:14:00.407
They were like they had to find, like a little rental.
00:14:00.427 --> 00:14:02.471
What a huge pain in the ass.
00:14:02.471 --> 00:14:04.820
It was crazy, okay.
00:14:04.820 --> 00:14:06.125
Well, now I'm concerned.
00:14:06.125 --> 00:14:14.927
I feel like I need to text Nate and ask him how to turn the water off, and I feel like that's probably going to be something that I'm going to have to crawl into the house for, and I'm not doing that.
00:14:16.380 --> 00:14:17.947
I hope it's not something under the house.
00:14:17.947 --> 00:14:19.967
I hope not either, because I definitely don't go under there.
00:14:21.140 --> 00:14:22.066
Why would you have to go under?
00:14:22.961 --> 00:14:35.647
I don right, I wanted new countertops all right, what else?
00:14:35.807 --> 00:14:37.730
okay, I'm trying to think what else I have to have.
00:14:37.730 --> 00:14:39.660
Yeah, I'm here with the clean thing.
00:14:39.660 --> 00:14:43.809
I also feel like I have to have all of my clothes cleaned oh I.
00:14:44.110 --> 00:14:45.212
So that's a big thing for me.
00:14:45.212 --> 00:14:46.361
Like no laundry.
00:14:46.361 --> 00:14:48.585
Clean beds, yeah.
00:14:48.585 --> 00:14:54.533
Like clean sheets, like I have to have everything done it literally I don't, so I do.
00:14:54.533 --> 00:14:58.666
I also have another weird thing we listen and we don't judge.
00:14:58.666 --> 00:15:02.714
I keep a laundry basket on top of.
00:15:02.714 --> 00:15:04.144
We listen and we don't judge.
00:15:04.144 --> 00:15:07.091
I keep a laundry basket on top of my dryer at all times.
00:15:07.091 --> 00:15:16.695
That basket is like the overflow basket, so that basket never really gets folded.
00:15:16.695 --> 00:15:21.505
Oh interesting, he kind of just hangs.
00:15:22.148 --> 00:15:31.964
So there are things that like don't really have a great home, or like things that go like in constant rotation, like the Christmas pajamas right now for the girls, yeah.
00:15:31.964 --> 00:15:36.769
So they're like they'll pull it down and be like I just wore this skirt two days ago.
00:15:36.769 --> 00:15:37.311
Where is it?
00:15:37.311 --> 00:15:40.788
And they'll, they know, cause I, you know, I do at least one load a day.
00:15:40.788 --> 00:15:49.134
Now I have to do two loads a day at least because I got the P sisters, p princesses, so every morning I've got to do a load.
00:15:49.134 --> 00:16:00.740
So but like that thing, I fold it when it starts to get high, or if it's fast stuff like towels, sweatshirts, whatever, or if I'm trying to get stuff where it needs to go.
