Hey guys, welcome to another episode of coffee combos Lindsay. I'm still here and still pregnant
and still fucking pregnant. I just I thought last night was the night I think every night
is the night at night I feel a lot of pressure like especially in my cat area and I'm just like
okay so this is it and then it's not it okay wait so a lot of people have told me that before
that have been pregnant about the pressure like in their cat area and I wonder why like I didn't
feel that I think your first time you don't because I didn't feel it with with Isaac yeah
because my cat was fine she was just fine I also just want to address really quickly to our listeners
I know you may hear an annoying sound like a buzzing it is my landscapers I also was very
annoyed when I woke up to them I didn't know they were coming today so if you guys hear them I do
apologize in advance but Lindsay and I wanted to podcast together today and so we kind of just have
to we're gonna have to just listen to the weed whackers yeah so okay whenever you sent me that
video of the weed whackers this morning and I was like what is that and you said fucking weed
whackers like I literally busted out laughing I sent Lindsay a video because I wasn't sure if she
was going to be able to hear it when we recorded and then I also sent her pictures of the weed whackers
in from my camera from like the outside surface so they don't know but I'll post it and I'll post
it on our on our fan page and then maybe they'll go tag themselves or something I don't know
wait a minute so um briefly since you're talking about a fan page or like a listener page whatever
you call it uh-huh why is it that I don't know how to use Facebook like I get on there and see
notifications and it makes me feel very overwhelmed I don't know how to follow the threads I don't
know how to get to stuff does anybody else feel like that because I hate Facebook I literally
it's the worst I try to get on because I want to interact with like especially with our listeners
on the page but I I really hate Facebook like I it's my least used social media which is crazy
because it's the most um used social media platform even over Instagram which is insane
to me and honestly the other day I was trying to get because my um personal Facebook page isn't
actually linked to like my verified Facebook page and so it's set up through separate accounts
and I was trying to figure out how to just get off of my personal page to log in to the other page
and it took me like 10 minutes to even know to press like the F Facebook button to be able
to get down to log out so I'm just like this is to me I just don't feel like it's user friendly
I they've definitely changed it a bunch over over the years and I definitely used to use it a lot
more but like even with like Sensei my Sensei team I've tried to be consistent with like a Facebook
page or like a Facebook group and I have to admit that I just can't like I don't remember Facebook
the way I remember other apps unfortunately so I'm just like here just text me because I can't
with the with Facebook I just can't okay so now that we can't with Facebook and we have established
that can we move along now and talk about why you're still pregnant yeah let's talk about it well
for one let me just tell you a brief story about yesterday I thought that I made it clear that I
wasn't having a hospital delivery to the doctors but I think they truly didn't believe me the only
one that believed me was the one that's quote-unquote high risk which whatever call me high risk or
don't um I don't think I'm high risk I'm over whatever um so I get a call yesterday and it's
the doctor's office and they're like hey we actually fit you into a room tonight to be induced
what and I was like oh what does that mean because I've never been induced I don't know what
that means like I thought I like I just didn't I just don't want to be induced and she's like so
you're gonna you're gonna eat a meal and you're gonna take a shower and then you're gonna go to
the hospital at 7 p.m mind you why the fuck would I be induced at 7 p.m and be up all night
fucking laboring and pushing and then have to be up with a newborn the next day like
tell me what the fuck kind of sense that makes well that's not ideal it's not like I don't
understand so then she's like um if you're over three centimeters dilated they'll keep you in the
hospital and start pitocin if you are not three centimeters dilated they will put this cream on
your cervix to open it up they'll send you home and then you'll come back in the morning to start
pitocin no none of that sounds ideal to me at all especially when this hospital is 45 minutes for
my house and the fact that your last labor from the time that your water broke until the time that
lux was born was 45 minutes so it's not 90 minutes 90 minutes 90 minutes whatever it's still like no
no so I got all the stuff on my birth supply list for my home birth and I um you know some of the
some of the stuff on here I was like hmm what do we need raw honey for um but the olive oil is for
like the so I don't rip wait so you put it on your your hoo-ha yeah oh my gosh you got like cooking
supplies girl I just want this baby to come this is weird you're putting olive oil down there
they do that in the hospitals too now they're gonna grease you up well I don't know if it's olive
oil that things gonna fly out like a watermelon so on top of all of this let me tell you how
my downstairs AC is out and I found a leak in my kitchen everything's wrong with your house
all the time like I swear well so the guy came yesterday and he's like well your system's completely
completely frozen we have to thaw it out we're gonna turn it off so then it got even more hot
in the house it's just like and like I have friends that are like oh you can come to our house
like just hang out or whatever and it's like thank you so much for the offer but like if I go into
labor I want to be at home you know what I mean like I don't I want to be comfortable in my own
space like if that means I'm sweating bullets until then like I'm gonna do it I just don't want to be
somewhere else and then go into labor or like not want to come home because it's hot so anyway
long story short he's coming between 12 and 4 to do a diagnosis and then he said because of corona
and COVID the parts that we need may not may not come right away so um so you're supposed to go with
like out AC I would think that would be a emergency he said that he's going to put like refrigerant
in the system to keep me cool until the parts come in so I guess if that means they have to come
back they will um but it's just like literally anything that could go wrong didn't this happen
to your heat this happened to your heat in the winter time right yes I and you know what he made
a really good point and I don't know why I didn't think about this the AC unit needs regular maintenance
just like we do when we go get physicals or our car gets maintenance like I'm just gonna schedule
them to come look at it quarterly so that they can just make sure everything is up to date you know
give me to tell you a story about yeah I do so no this is like really like very scary
so I was just minding my own business one day doing my normal thing go out to my garage to
leave click the little button and literally that fucking thing flew off like it flew off almost
smashed on my car completely derailed hanging sideways I'm screaming nobody else is home
but me and I'm like what am I supposed to do so I had to call an emergency person because I thought
it was going to follow my car and then I couldn't get my car out because it's like hanging you know
sideways and the guy told me the exact same thing he was like you need to have somebody come out here
even if your husband does it to like wheel um oil the wheels and stuff like that um because this
kind of stuff needs maintenance so I didn't even know that I just yeah I guess we don't some things
you just don't think about until you need to fix it or whatever you use it till it breaks right
well I'm really good about taking care of my my car and stuff like I always get regular maintenance
my tire rotations my oil chains like oil change I'm really good about that stuff so I don't know
why I didn't it just didn't cross my mind to have my ac units surf it surfaced serviced you know
especially during a heat wave or whatever well I really hope that they get it at least cooling
down so that if you have the baby sometime today or over the weekend that you have ac on your main
floor because that's a pain in the ass I have been there yeah it's a huge pain in my ass
so I think that you're gonna have the baby on Friday or Saturday okay let me check the dates
because I'm okay with I think I'm okay with Saturday I don't think I'm okay with third I don't think
I'm okay with Friday well you don't really get a choice Kale it's just coming out you know well
so I was thinking about that too it's like okay for three the three kids that I have now two of
them came in the middle of the night and one of them came at the ass crack of dawn so I mean
hard to say if he's gonna come in the day or in the night very hard to say what's the date
what's the date on Friday is the 24th and Saturday is the 25th which I would definitely
be okay with the 25th but wouldn't you be okay with the 24th too since I didn't choose
yes and no I just feel like 20 yeah I would be fine with it but so really that's like your
money spot like Friday or Saturday well really it was yesterday the 20th because okay well that's
past we can't but the 20th is a multiple of two and a multiple of five which I needed for lux
oh I know nuts like you're literally nuts can we talk about how some people sent us messages
about how they are the type of people that specifically try to conceive at certain times
of the year so that they can have like either winter or summer babies or spring babies or
whatever yeah I mean that definitely makes sense I had after I had two winter babies I was like when
I have another baby I want a summer baby because it's just like I wanted to experience a summer
baby I've also I know a teacher who she didn't want to take maternity leave during the school year
so she wanted to get pregnant in order to have her baby over the summer so that she didn't
have to take maternity leave during the school year and see for stuff like that I completely
understand but otherwise I'm just like it's gonna happen when it's gonna happen I'm not gonna
like be focused on the months you know right I mean a lot of times people it's hard for them so
that it's they'll just take whatever they can get and I completely understand that too I can hear
your weed whackers I'm sorry but I don't hear your birds today I wonder if they flew away
for sure they did probably because of the weed whackers okay because they got scared
do you think that's why yeah I definitely think that's why I did find an egg outside like another
one at in the beginning of the summer like around springtime I found a robin's egg and I don't I don't
know if it hatched or if it you know got eaten by another bird but um or animal but I found a tan
egg and I don't know what the tan egg like what kind of bird that belongs to we need to do some
research um and other people it was so funny reading the messages and all the comments about the
ferns because I got so many messages of people trying to help me about the ferns and about my
fiddle fig so I was so impressed with our listenership knowing about plants and people also thinking
that you're crazy that ferns only grow in the wild because some people from New Jersey sent me
messages saying that no they have ferns that hang and it's not oh my friends my friends texted me
and told me that they have ferns that hang my friend Amy I woke up to a text and she sent me
probably 10 pictures of her and all her family members ferns hanging and stuff like that and I
was like oh wow like I guess she was very committed to like letting you know oh and she circled them
and I said you know what I'm gonna get some ferns I think you should I think you would really like
ferns but I was very impressed like with our listenership and how many of them seem to have
green thumbs because I'm just like yeah well so I don't know what I'm doing I was doing some research
after we podcasted and I actually met the same friend Amy she was helping me just helping to send
me um types of plants that you can keep that are actually super super easy to care for and
actually the more you leave them alone the more they thrive um she actually brought me one it's
called the mother's I think it's called a mother-in-law's tongue or something like that and you just
minimal care like minimal minimal care so I think that the next thing that I need to ask everyone
is what are plant house plants that I can get that like being neglected because that's
that's probably my money spot same here like and and you know what it's funny about my personality
um I think that I like things that like to be neglected I don't know if it's called neglected
if they like to be neglected I think it's only neglected when you're supposed to take care of it
you know like sometimes yeah I mean I get that but I'm saying I think that that's what I attract
like things that oh yeah same don't you know what I mean that don't want me
goodbye okay Kale okay um in other news can we talk about um me getting a car accident over the
weekend yeah but we need to talk about that we definitely need to discuss that well why are
you laughing I'm not laughing I'm not I'm glad that you're okay I'm not laughing I just we need to
discuss you bitch so Saturday morning rolls around and Jackson had a little birthday party
I want to preface this with the birthday party that he went to everybody is practicing safe
measures there was he was the only friend and then it was his friend and then his three cousins so
that was the extent of the party um but we're on our way I go to mcdonald's to get a coke I'm drinking
my coke driving down the road everything's good great and I get to start going towards the freeway
and right before I go to get on it there's a car we've all got green lights and there's a car that
like dead stops in front of me so I go to get over to the other lane because the car literally
just stopped it was going like 35 miles an hour and then it just stops so I go to get another
lane I should shoot not there was a car in my blind spot and I hit it and it was like the
speed of smell when I hit it so it basically was just like dink and my car didn't really rock or
anything um Jackson was in the car and he was like mom I think we hit a car and I'm like
yes son like I I have established that we're trying to get pulled over so we pull over in the
Costco parking lot and the police come into everything and luckily the person that I hit he was
like oh I've been several accidents like my fault whatever so then it's already making me think
did I hit him or did he hit me and he just has me convinced that I hit him because you know like
when you get in an accident your mind kind of like blacks out for a second have you ever had that
happen yeah okay excuse it yeah so my mind like kind of blacked out so even if he told me that I
hit him I would have believed it you know what I mean oh yeah like even if he hit me yeah I'll be
like yeah I'm so sorry like I hit you but I was like super apologetic I was like I'm so sorry that
like I hit you this was not my intentions like I was literally drinking a coke driving down the
road minding my business like I had on my Apple watch I didn't even have my phone like what the
hell is going on so um basically the officer came and he was like writes the report and he
faulted no one so I was very that's good yeah but does that happen in accidents that was so confused
I think yes under certain circumstances like it couldn't truly have been avoided by anyone
right yeah so I think that probably was the situation because it was either hit the car
that dead stopped which now after talking to my insurance company I probably should have just
rear-ended them um but like when you're trying to think fast you know it's like you're trying to
avoid something I think that's where my mind was but they said if I would have probably rear-ended
them if they could have proven that that car stopped for no reason because they were there was
literally like nothing stopping them it wasn't like traffic or anything like that they just
dead stopped um then they would have been at fault and then I wouldn't have been at fault but I'm
just I still I guess I wasn't at fault but I still hit technically hit the other car so um yeah but
we're fine and everything and then while we're on this topic I posted a picture of Jackson earlier
that morning in his car seat like on my story on Instagram and I got so many messages of people
being like he's too big to be sitting in a booster seat you know what I saw that I did see that on
your stuff and I was equally shocked by that but also not because I've actually have p have people
in my regular day-to-day life who give me shit about having Lincoln in a car seat not a car seat
he's in a booster seat um and it's honestly so upsetting to think and let me just preface this
with there was a scene on teen mom where Isaac wasn't wearing his seatbelt one I had no idea and two
we were actually in my neighborhood like driving like five miles an hour so they had to we had to
like recreate a scene of driving up to the house um anyway that's besides the point but no Lincoln
is still in a booster seat and people give me shit about that and I it's really upsetting because I
see on people's Instagram stories and on their profiles and stuff they'll have three and four
year olds sitting in a regular call like in with a regular seatbelt and I'm like you guys don't
understand the impact of yeah you might be a safe driver but what about everybody else
well and that's my thing I mean there could be people like me out on the road you know
and so for that reason your child should probably be in a safety seat because I might hit you you
know so it's like Lindsay shut up shut up but for that reason I'm just like you don't know
what's going to happen and I think that it's better to be safe than sorry and I I mean it's
also the law like I know in some states it's different than other states but I know in the
state of Georgia I think it's um 12 or four nine whichever you reach first so some people messaged
me and said that it was eight in their state and then 12 for the front seat that they get
sit in the front seat um but then there's a weight limit too and Jackson meets none of those
requirements so I'm just like that's why he's in a booster seat and then well is it just the parents
don't want to be hassled with putting a child in the car seat or but it's not any more trouble
like the car seat is already in the car and it's already all attached and when you have a booster
you just put the seatbelt on so it's no different than sitting in the seat other than the fact of
having the booster I don't know I saw it on someone's story not that long ago and I was just like
your son is four or five years old and if you get into an accident like I just I don't know
there used to be people that would drive me crazy in the preschool parking lot that would
let their kids hang out of like their sunroof and even though they were only driving like maybe
three miles an hour through the parking lot or five miles an hour however fast they were going
it's like anything could happen and what if you're what if you like hit a tree branch or something
and like decapitated your kid or like something tragic happened that somebody like t-boned you
and your kid was hanging out of the roof like that is that kind of stuff like I don't mess around
with safety with stuff like that I just I don't know I'm about to have two car seats in a booster
seat in my truck and it doesn't bother me like that doesn't it's like okay this is what we chose
this is what we knew we were signing up for is that they're in car seats and booster seats until
they're over you know X amount of years old and Isaac he doesn't have to be in a booster because
he's tall enough now but so wait how will that work will you do the two seats and like your bucket
seats and yeah and then Lincoln knows how to do his own um he's in the booster and I'll put him in
the third row he knows how to like buckle himself up and stuff and Isaac can help him and then the
bucket seats will have the baby's car seats oh my gosh kale that is so much I literally thought
about it the other day I was like wow I'm about to have three in here but you you're getting in the
car routine stresses me out already oh it's definitely gonna take I even think about going
back to school like what that timeline is gonna look like oh my god four kids like trying to get
everybody out the door on time just with the car seats alone not even just getting dressed and
getting ready for school eating breakfast it's like the car seat situation is such a stress well I
guess you'll have for the baby you'll be able to strap him in and everything in before we get yeah
exactly so then that'll make that easier but yeah it's it's such a hassle um speaking of school
though people had sent me so many messages just asking what I was going to be doing for Jackson
because Georgia is really just you know doing their best job to make the worst headlines
um as a state in the media and I'm just like really not a proud Georgian right now to be
perfectly honest um my county has decided that they're going to give options um to parents
and we had until July 17th which was this past Friday to make the decision um they're going
to do an in-person option and then a digital learning option or you can choose to withdraw
your child and completely homeschool once you choose the option you can't switch it for nine
weeks so even if protocol changes um if there was like a government mandate like at the state or
federal level that was put on schools you would have to be okay with that and the only option
within that first nine weeks would be to withdraw your kid to homeschool but not to withdraw to
digital learn so um to me that was a very easy decision because as a parent um with the looks
of the government right now you don't know what's going to happen from one day to the next and so
I just felt like I wouldn't be okay if the government mandated my child to wear a mask for
seven hours in a day and so um for that reason you know it's a double-edged sword because I don't
want him to go to school without a mask because I don't want him to be exposed but then at the
same time I don't want him having to wear a face covering all day because I think that at the point
that your child is in an environment that isn't easy to learn and especially if you have a child
that is like mine that um he is very distracted very easily that that it's just not a great
learning environment so we did choose the digital learning option um I have set him up with a tutor
that he will tutor with twice weekly um from his school and he will have a digital learning teacher
that will strictly only be a digital learning teacher so she will not have a classroom so I'm
very happy about that but just the whole um wrapping my mind around knowing that he's
going to be home until I don't know how long is right stressful because you know Will and I are
both working and um it makes it very hard luckily we've been doing this since March like a lot of
other people and I think for me a lot of the teachers in my county are predicting that they're
going to close within three weeks of opening because all the surrounding counties around us
are doing digital only ours we I just got an email saying that um well I didn't get the email
someone I'm friends with got the email um saying that we are likely to do a hybrid situation um which
just for me I just feel like maybe a I don't know I and I I do empathize with the people who can't
stay home with their kids I really do but I just don't for me it's hard to to say let's open if
we're just going to close in three weeks um so I just feel like maybe for the first few months we
should all be digitally learning and then try to open up late but evidently our school district is
hoping to do a hybrid situation or planning to do a hybrid situation we still don't have answers
actually so um well we actually start on August 3rd so we start way sooner than you guys so that's
probably why why we have answers but there's also been another county that um is close to us which
is the largest county I believe in Georgia they had originally set plans to open school um and do
mask requirement so it would be a mask mandate however they have now come out and said they're
not doing an opening at all they're just going to digitally learn so my county has been very firm
that they're not changing their mind that they are going and they are not going to do face coverings
and they are not doing temperature checks so um for me I think I'm sure a lot of parents that
are listening know that people when it's regular flu season cold season whatever will give their
kids motrin or Tylenol and send them send them and so for that reason alone adding covid on top
of that I'm just like I can't I can't trust it and I don't feel safe and so it's probably the
harder thing for me to do to choose the digital option but I felt really like I didn't have a choice
it's hard it's definitely a hard choice to make I think for anybody I mean even the ones who truly
don't think that they can stay home to digit for digital learning I think I'm in a weird
situation like we talked about last week it's hard especially co-parenting because Joe and
Javi want to send the kids to school and for me I'm like just let me homeschool them for the first
you know three months or whatever the the first nine weeks is um but if there's a hybrid option
I'm thinking that Joe and Javi are gonna have to they're gonna have to compromise because
according to both of our custody agreements we make 50 50 decisions on school so um they want
to send them I want to keep them home I believe 50 50 option would be hybrid so they're not gonna
have a choice you know what I mean so um I did post a really crazy um TikTok on my on my Facebook
page about um an elementary school teacher who did every scenario possible with a an elementary
school aged kid with the face mask so I'm gonna post that on our um coffee combos Facebook page
and you guys can comment and let me know your thoughts um just because I thought it was an
interesting perspective from the teacher it was like one kid the the the toilet dropper and she
and the kid drops the the mask in the toilet and one's the nose picker and one wants to oh my god
I've seen this yes yes it was so I laughed it was so accurate I laughed so hard because when she
got to the part where she was like oh I want to try on your mask it's cool I could totally see
that happening with all the girls in first grade oh 100% 101 I told you I took Isaac uh yeah Isaac
and Lincoln to the eye doctor and Lincoln wanted to put it on his forehead like I cannot tell you
how accurate the video was and I was like I mean that definitely is an interesting perspective I
would just be curious to know how a hybrid for our situation like a hybrid situation does that is
that all kids go to the campus at the same time or are they different days so I heard with the
hybrid which is kind of what we wanted our county to do well and I were kind of on board with that
would be that there would be a b days so some students would be a days and some students would
be b days and it's based off of last name um and that would be weird for you kale because what if
some of your kids go on a days and some go on b days because well I guess you would just have
two but no I would have to I would have to email the school or something to yeah arranged I think
that goes for a lot of co-parents though like a lot of situations where kids have um you know
maybe someone has a second um like has other children with with somebody else I think that
it's gonna have to be a situation where like V and I get together and talk about okay you're
taking VV to school on you know these three days let me try to get Isaac and Lincoln on those same
days that yeah yeah because um Javi as as up and down and as our as our relationship has been um
he's the most flexible and the most he works with me the most especially when it comes to Lincoln
like if it's gonna make my schedule easier with Isaac he a 100% helps me out with that so
so I don't think that that part will be an issue but I just want to make sure that when Isaac is
at Joe and V's house they're able to have both of their kids on the same schedule as well as me
and Lincoln it's so hard because it just makes it so freaking chaotic
while we're on the topic of COVID I just wanted to mention the article
that I had found about Mississippi voting against not having a choice to get vaccines
so there wouldn't be any exception when the time comes so I think that's absolutely
insane because even as a pro-vaxxer I wouldn't be signing up for the COVID vaccination
and I you know what that's I have I texted you that a lot of people I know who are pro-vaxxers
are not going to get the COVID vaccine just because it hasn't been out long enough for
testing and all kinds of other things I I have to agree with that I mean
I feel like it's being cautious in this situation is being is being right I don't know if that's
how I feel but you guys know how I feel about vaccines in general so I just think that being
cautious asking questions is the right thing to do just be informed whatever you do if you
choose to get it if you don't choose to get it just know why well if you look at just
science alone and how long it takes to create a vaccine and what kind of trials it has to
run through and how long that takes and how they are fast tracking the vaccine I'm not
here to tell anybody what to do but to me there is a reason that for every other vaccine it's
taken so much longer to create and to be able to safely distribute and administer I couldn't
imagine as a parent just being like yeah sign me up and give my kid that we don't know what's
going to happen but you know whatever to me that's insane I just I think it's and I heard
through the trials that I don't know if it was like one person who is part of the test group or
whatever tested positive for COVID like through the trials so I don't know if there's any truth
to that or not because you know the media puts out stuff that might be true and might might not
be true but I did see that as a headline so I don't know this it's weird it's weird fucking
times it's weird fucking times everything feels everything for me I just feel like I don't know
what to believe I don't know what's right I don't know what's wrong and I feel like the more I dig
for answers the more questions I have I feel like we're approaching like a civil war like I really
truly feel like that I feel like we're just at war with ourselves at this point at this
point for sure um in other news can we talk about this morning and I woke up I know I've
talked about it on the podcast sometimes you wake up and everything like runs super smoothly
sometimes you wake up it's a actual shit show my morning this morning started as an actual
shit show um Will and I both have dentist appointments today he had his before work I
have mine I think it's at one o'clock um obviously with COVID there's so many different protocols
that you have to go through to even go to a you know dentist or medical doctor or whatever
but I have been having a problem with Jackson getting into stuff like
he gets into everything and he touches on everything and it literally drives me nuts I
can't even print contracts or anything that's like important like medical documents that I
might need to take to dentist like insurance cards like whatever can't even print them because he
goes into my office and moves my papers so at this point I know that I talked to you about it
briefly yesterday that I was looking for like a one bedroom apartment for an office to be able
to go and work during working hours so that I can have a quiet space um and now I'm definitely
like when we get done podcasting I get finished going to the dentist and Jackson gets finished
with his play date which will basically probably be the end of the day so I was about to say I was
about to say Lindsay that's you're not going to be able to look for an apartment after all of those
things I know I try to do too much stuff in one day and then I'm like I need to get my car to the
shop and then I need to go and pick up a rental and it's like I have to pick up a rental because
I have to make sure that I have it in enough time to be able to get Jackson to swim tomorrow so it's
like as a mom do you ever feel like the shit is never ending every single fucking day every single
day every day of my life I literally this morning was like I went downstairs like get everything in
order um and Lux was calling me from upstairs and like I kept saying hold on a second hold on a second
and he kept yelling for me in my I said it out I said it out loud I was like when did I decide to
have kids like I have said hold on nicely and calmly about 700 times already like I just it's
9 a.m. like relax like can you please calm down I literally lost it on Jackson this morning I said
Jackson where are the papers that were on my printer oh well I was trying to help you so I put
him in here and then dad touched him and I don't know what he did but then I'm like okay that's
too too many people that have touched my paper so that's it I'm I'm moving out I'm getting one
bedroom apartment you guys will not see me for like eight hours of the day because I can't even
print stuff on my own freaking printer without somebody touching it it's like what business
does he have going in there and moving my papers and then he tries to say oh well I'm being helpful
no you actually just made a complete disaster for me this morning actually so I put a timer on him
because as I've talked about on the podcast before he is the worst eater um put it put a 10 minute
timer and I was like you have 10 minutes to finish that breakfast and then you're gonna get upstairs
and you're going to read for an hour time out time out time out he's the worst eater because he takes
so long or because he doesn't he won't eat it he won't eat it unless I put a timer on like see
Isaac will literally take an hour to eat a meal what Isaac he's he'll try anything I put in front
of him almost but he will I thought you were putting the timer because he takes so long
and I'm and I might even do it now just because you gave me the idea I'm gonna start doing Isaac
takes his time for every fucking thing in his life and it's like sweet up sweet up we could be
literally I could give him an hour and a half to get up shower get dressed do all the things that
he needs to do and for everyone in the everyone in the house will be ready except for Isaac and
you're just like why are you he just like I that's why for him I'm like maybe you need to be home
schooled because it just is more his personality like it's just his but he also wants to socialize
but anyways continue I was just I might use the timer for Isaac no I'm telling you the timer for
whatever reason okay it's a major trigger for Jackson but it's because he knows that I'm gonna
go off of that right so if that timer freaking goes off and he's not done whatever on his plate
he's done so sorry if you wanted it then you should have sped up you should have acted like
you were maybe in a little bit bigger of a rush than sitting there trying to carry on a conversation
while food's flinging out of your mouth um yeah maybe that's what we should have done but we
learned the timer because he will slow walk anything and he sits there and it's like he
just won't eat like he finds every excuse to do something else like he's carrying on conversation
to avoid eating oh and it's the most aggravating I don't know anybody who's listening if you have
a child I was talking to one of my friends this weekend actually on Saturday evening we were talking
about how good her kids ate and she was like yeah but my kids literally eat me out of house and home
and I said I wish I had a kid that would eat me out of house and home because he's just not a good
eater and he's never been a good eater and it drives me nuts Lincoln is not a good eater as far as
like variety but Lincoln is a powerhouse when it comes to food so he had a Isaac's teacher is my
friend Isaac's teacher from last year is my friend Amy that I talked about in the beginning of the
podcast she has a kindergartner the same in the same grade obviously as Lincoln they became little
besties or whatever and she had Lincoln over for a sleep over a while a little while back and she
was like she sent me a like a video of her son and Lincoln and she's like notice how I I loaded
Lincoln's plate because Lincoln will literally eat a full and a full meal and 20 minutes later he's
like when's dinner I saw that thing that you posted about like when you have leftovers or
something then they don't ask they don't ask for leftovers but when I have leftovers or when I
don't have leftovers they're like is there more and I'm like you guys are making me crazy insane
because they'll ask me like link one of Lincoln's favorite foods is Alfredo and so and he likes the
he calls it the airplane but it's bow tie noodles uh-huh and I'll try to always make extra of like
my pastas like even if it's just mac and cheese because Lincoln loves it the other day I made
sure that I left some for him and he didn't ask for leftovers and I was pissed because I specifically
made leftovers for him like and you're like the one time I make the leftovers that you don't ask
me I eat leftovers but certain leftovers are not good when they're yeah like you when you reheat
them they're just not good and so like that was one of them like I just was like I'm not gonna
reheat this like I just so I just Lincoln is a powerhouse when it comes to food but it has to
be something he likes but even still 20 minutes later and I I shit you not if any of my friends
are listening Natalie Amy you guys can vouch for me like Lincoln will literally eat a full meal and
then ask when dinner is like he kills it and then he's like hungry in five minutes yeah like if we
don't eat it I can't have an early dinner here like I can't have a dinner at four or five
because that's by six o'clock he's like when are we eating dinner and you're like we just
calm down did it digest yet like and that is so funny Lux Lux eats me out of house and hold
Isaac is not so like he'll eat whatever you know he'll eat whatever but he doesn't like eat all day
and eat huge portions like he's just not that kid but um Jackson's a snacker like he's perfectly fine
with like a Nutri grain bar and a yogurt and a string cheese and whatever but you give that child
a meal unless he's not having any he's not he's not about it and he told me that I need to come up
with a new business plan and my new business is going to be a spaghetti maker because I make good
spaghetti and I'm like no like I am so sick of freaking making spaghetti because I have to make
it every single week because I know that's like you know one good meal like it's one good meal
that I know that he will eat well I think we go ahead then he eats it for like three days three
day yeah no I that's pasta in this house is like three days a week because I know that even if it's
different sauces all my kids can eat the pot they'll eat the pasta whether it's Isaac loves
Alfredo and red sauce Lincoln likes Alfredo or no sauce Lux will eat whatever the fuck I put in
front of him so I know that that's food that they'll eat they'll all eat and it's not like a huge
change where like for lunch the other day Lincoln wanted mac and cheese and Lux wanted turkey and
cheese and I and they both wanted apples and I'm like I'm not making I'm not a short order cook
no I'm so sick of it and I want to get on a schedule where like they can eat they all eat the main
like base of whatever it is and then maybe the sides are a little bit different like I I'm not
opposed to and and you guys can tell me that I'm fucked up for this but I'm not opposed to like for
example say I make chicken cutlets or something and Isaac will eat broccoli but Lincoln won't
I'll put a string cheese on this plate I'm not going to make a whole other side but I have other
things that would substitute as sides does that make sense yes see I'm perfectly fine with that too
yeah okay so some people were like they're like no that's not like a but it's still a side I'm not
gonna make a whole other thing so sometimes Will and I will have like zucchini or squash or something
like that and Jackson doesn't like that so I'll put some broccoli like on there for it to cook
because he will eat broccoli um so I just like pick and choose it's like broccoli is just as healthy
so I'm not gonna you know fight that and it's not that much harder for me just to put some like on
the pan to cook it um but yeah I'm I'm totally with you that the sides to me aren't the issue
it's like the main entree I don't want to be cooking spaghetti and then cooking like I don't
know yeah salmon and then yeah that's too much um Lux's new thing he loves crabs which is like
that's so funny he gets that from his father because I don't eat seafood and neither do my other
kids but I'm like I'm not ever gonna make crabs because nobody eats it so I'm like you're gonna
have to ask you to ask your dad for that because I wouldn't even know the first thing about making
seafood wait where do you even you just get it at the grocery store like his Christmas day this
for him before yeah I guess they eat they like we're known for seafood here like near Maryland
and Delaware so um I guess they get it like seafood boils they have like a ton of like restaurants
where you order the crabs oh my god in like bush bushels or whatever I can't I can't eat
stuff like that but it is so funny that you say that because Jackson was on the phone with somebody
the other day I can't remember who we were talking to but he was like well you know my favorite place
to vacation is St. Simon's Island it's a very beautiful and they have delicious crab cakes and
I'm like whoever he is talking to probably thinks that this child is literally insane like what kind
of seven-year-old child says oh and they have delicious crab cakes oh Jackson only out of the
mouths of babes yeah for sure have you ever wanted to eat healthy but you probably don't have the
time budget or know how to because honestly we've all been there and it can be such a struggle but

before before we run out of time we need to talk about some stuff okay let's talk about it so here
goes the weed wacker well I don't hear the freaking weed wacker well thank god can we talk about
the Kanye West tweets the uh Nicki Minaj is pregnant how about that well that um Kanye West
what was that that he had over the weekend like a um a melt till breakdown well yeah Kale I mean
like I'm that that's obvious but um what was it like a rally or whatever campaign I don't know I
don't even know I heard that I'm not aware there wasn't like a ton of people there um this was a
rally or a campaign for what his presidency because I heard he dropped out for his presidency
and during this let's just call it like a rally during this um he basically has a mental breakdown
and just to preface this during the rally yes um oh good god I didn't initially see it will
saw it and I had to go back and watch it um I am so disturbed because mental illness really is a
real thing and I really am sad for him and hope for him to get help because I insensitively went
on Twitter last night and said that I was going to bed but I was staying up for the tea that he
was tweeting because somebody had sent me a screenshot of him saying Chris and Kim call me
and then a screenshot of him uh texting Chris saying hey it's yay um give me a call or something
I did see the tweets but I didn't understand okay now that you're saying this I did see
did not did he go on a rant and he said that Harriet Tubman never freed slaves he just yes
okay he's okay I'm very confused by all of this and I it says Kanye West claims wife Kim Kardashian
was trying to fly to Wyoming with a doctor to lock him up um this is all very concerning
but I tweeted last night about how he was like spilling tea because those were the two tweets
that I saw that somebody sent me so I was like oh like maybe he's gonna like spill something this
was prior to me even knowing about this rally or campaign whatever he was doing in South Carolina
will then send me that um but then after going and looking at his Twitter feed I like deleted
that tweet because I was like oh my god like he is literally having a manic meltdown um on Twitter
because the stuff that he was saying I mean like saying that NBC was basically responsible for uh
Bill Cosby's downfall or something like that um he was also talking about Kim's porn or something
sell like Chris selling the sex I don't know what exactly yeah sent me the tweets and I was like
these tweets don't even make any freaking sense well it was so insane and then you know
he lost me at the Bill Cosby thing because I'm like okay come on like that man is so guilty for
everything that he did so come on like why are we bringing Bill Cosby into this first of all
well secondly um I think he was trying to bring NBC and and E as a network into it as they control
him and so he needed his wife and his children with him in Wyoming or something like that was
kind of like what I gathered from it but I mean I feel like she should as his wife take a doctor
there and get him the help that he mentally needs he literally outed her and himself that they were
going to abort North at this rally or campaign that he had what yes and that Kim had the pills in
her hand and he got a vision or something from God that told him like not to do it and so
so he said for her not to do it but Kim saved the the reason North is here is because of Kim
okay so so basically Kanye this is a way this is his cry for help and he you know he needs help
he needs help he's needed help I think for for a long period of time and people have said it you
know there's been different headlines that I've seen over periods of time that you know he has
bipolar disorder and whatnot um and suffers from from mental illness and hasn't been the same since
his mother passed away and I get that um but honestly when you're that deep in a mental illness
and you're not taking medication I feel like he shouldn't maybe he's just so sick I can't
because I don't have that I can't wrap my head around like why you would get on Twitter you
would have to have some conscious mind knowing that you're outing them by going on Twitter right
because you know it's going to reach like the masses I'm just like reading about all of this
and they're still reporting on it as of 20 uh 32 minutes ago um Kanye also said that part
when he kicked off his presidential campaign uh everyone that has a baby gets a million dollars
like I don't know what kind of fantasy world you live in but money doesn't make itself um so that
doesn't that's not gonna work from after the fact of him talking about how they were going to abort
north it all came from you know basically people who have children there should be a monetary incentive
is what I took from it and you know I don't agree with that I think that you're making a conscious
people don't people don't understand that this money like even with the stimulus checks like
where does that money come from the more money you print the more devalues the currency so
so I mean people want all of this money and whatever I mean that's getting off topic but
yeah it says Kanye West elites tweets claiming Kim Kardashian called the doctor to lock him up
I mean CNN Fox News L.com ABC News everyone is reporting on this I don't know why I didn't know
more I just want everybody I truly hope he gets help too if you're if you believe in prayer I just
think everybody should be praying for him and his family because that is just awful there are
children involved and for that child too she will eventually hear about this and know about what
happened and you know I just don't think that somebody should be going out and spreading that
type of information to everybody to hear about it in the world I mean that is traumatizing
I can't imagine as a wife how Kim feels you know and people are saying well she was while he was
doing all of this she was promoting skims on her Instagram account you know people don't know what
goes on inside of homes people don't know what goes on inside of relationships people don't know
all of the inside details and you know who's to say somebody else doesn't run Kim's Instagram
account and who's to say that that she hasn't been dealing with this for a long period of time
that maybe this isn't shocking
you know maybe her mindset is I need to get him help but that doesn't mean that
her businesses are going to stop and that doesn't mean that she doesn't have children to provide
for and that doesn't mean that right you know I don't know I just I think that I made an
insensitive tweet because I thought that he was just like spilling information I didn't know because
somebody sent me a screenshot you know and I was like oh wow that's like that's like um with the
Britney stuff I didn't know how serious the Britney stuff was and I apologize for that I think that
you know it sometimes you don't find out until after the fact and so I don't think you're wrong
for that um in other news we need a touch base on the vibrator story because I have gotten so
many messages of people saying it's now showing up on their phone because you talked about it on the
podcast I'm sorry did you hear this do people send you messages about this too well I went
on the fan on the Facebook page and they they were in the comments telling me and I feel bad I
didn't I didn't know that it did it when other people talk about it on your phone I thought it
was just when you talk about it on your like near your own phone but the good news is that there
are comments on how you can stop that from happening yes so supposedly you can go into your settings
and um do something with like the advertising or something like that so I'm gonna check that out
and see if I can figure out how to do it and then if I do figure out how to do it then I will post
so you guys can also do it because I think it's one of the most annoying things like I hate for
it to show up and it also freaks me out it's like I feel like I have no sense of privacy I can't
even talk near my iPhone without it picking up something and I think people really are spying
on us like I don't doubt that at all like I'm one of those people that think that I'm not interesting
I don't talk about anything great other than when we podcast so if someone's spying on me like all
you're gonna do is hear me complain about the goddamn weed wackers and I mean the pressure I
feel in my cat so I don't do anything like if someone's spying on me I just don't do weird
shit you know I don't say I don't talk about sucking vibrators like I really don't I don't do I mean
I probably do do weird stuff that people would think was weird if they were spying on me because
of my OCD but not really weird stuff like I feel like I live pretty normally and probably do what
everybody else is doing you know like I'm not sitting around like picking my nose and taking
like 12 shits a day and like doing like weird stuff like I'm I'm just being like normal human
you know um yeah oh you know what we you know what we didn't talk about is the glee actress that
drown Naya Rivera yes we never talked about that rest in peace Maya because that is so sad
um I don't I knew that they I know that they found it they found her body but the whole
the whole situation was very weird to me because Lincoln is six and I would never get
out on a boat with just me and him like I just wouldn't because I feel like if one I don't really
know what I'm doing and two you know if something were to happen it's only me and him well I kind
of had that same thought of Jackson seven but first of all I don't know how to drive a boat
um secondly I wouldn't trust myself in a big body of water just with my child because I'm a scared
person anyway you know like I get right I get scared for whatever reason um I guess like the
anxiety but I couldn't either but was she used to going on the water which was this something that
was like a normal occurrence um I don't know and then I saw so many different like conspiracy
things that were posted and then like stuff that was faulty with the video footage of her going
from her car to the boat ramp and how she was wearing one thing and then um in the footage
they sure were wearing something else but she she was like never the footage never stopped like for
her to change so how could she have been wearing two different things I mean there were so many
different things that I saw that were like conspiracy related um how another actor passed away
like almost exactly a year prior to her and you know they were people conspiracy theorists were
saying that there was some correlation there I'm just so confused well I I know a bunch of
or a couple of glee cast members have passed away mysteriously I just I'm confused by
her not wearing her life jacket and then I read one where the little boy had said that she had
gotten in the water and never came back and so he was on the boat for like three or four hours
by himself before someone noticed and then um another one I read that she gave him a boost
back up onto the boat and then she never came back up on the boat so um did she drown was it
a suicide like I I just couldn't imagine like as a mother if she was in a place of doing something
like that why the thought I don't think it was a suicide like I really don't because
I'm just thinking of it as from a mother's perspective to take your child out onto a body
of water and know that nobody else is there to take care of him while he's on a boat and then
for her to do something like that that would be very selfish and then for him to have right those
memories so I couldn't even imagine that being the case you know like if she was going to do that
why wouldn't you do it when he was with his dad or you know something like that at his right
right maybe it really was an accident there was so many different things that I saw that
said it was a common occurrence that there was these um like I don't know like about water
but how there had been like many drownings there before and that the water at that time of the day
was rough or whatever so I don't know if it was like a current or what it was that that happened
but to me I'm just like anything water related can happen so fast and I think that people don't
really understand the severity of how dangerous water truly can be and I have Jackson in swim
swim lessons he's a great swimmer but he's not um a professional swimmer and he's not
a soup like he's a strong swimmer for his age but if something like that happened he wouldn't
he wouldn't be able to get himself out so for emergency situations I'm gonna probably have
him in swim lessons until he's 18 years old because I think that it's so important water
deaths or I think that would be like the worst way to die to drown yeah water is really water is
really scary I have um I've talked about it before but I have around the pool I have a fence with the
with a lock thing that lux can't reach and then I also have the alarms on the doors um lux is too
and he can swim without a life jacket believe it or not but only because I've exposed him to the
water but I also would never I still wouldn't get in the water with just me and lux or just me and
Lincoln um I just wouldn't it's just for me it always wants to go in the water like without a
life jacket like in the lake and stuff and it's like no like in your yeah it's not worth it yeah
but not in the water like I wouldn't know I wouldn't let like lux swim without a life jacket in a pool
or uh not in a pool I would let him do it in the pool because I'm home and I'm here but um
in a lake or a river or an ocean like that's a hard pass for me I think in your situation
because it's contained like in your yard and all eyes are on him so he needs to learn to swim without
a life jacket but in a body a large body of water that you can't see the bottom of
and you don't know what could happen like literally anything could happen so for me I'm like nope
you're wearing a life jacket and I I tell him I'm like it's the law like you will get arrested
that's actually a good way to like make sure he keeps it on yeah I'm like you do realize and
like every time the boat passes it's like the police boat or whatever I'm like that's the police
and he's checking everybody to see if they have life jackets and he's like yeah but like all parents
aren't wearing them all the time and I'm like yeah but all kids have to be like it is the law
but yeah that's perfect it's so sad that that whole situation was so sad and then
all the conspiracy so if you guys have followed that and you know like or have looked into it
anymore than what we have then please like call and leave a message um I know that I keep saying
to call and leave a message it's just because the DMs are so overwhelming like I we love getting them
but sometimes everybody sends like the same stuff a lot of times and so
it's just better to just like hear y'all's voice if you have something to say and then
it's easy for me to go through the voicemails and just write down you know like oh okay you know
this is this is what people want to hear it's just easier that way than trying to like filter through
hundreds and hundreds of messages um but anyway well you know what I was kind of hoping
that you would go into labor on the podcast and you would be like oh I knew you were gonna say
I knew you were gonna say that and I thought the exact same thing like he moved a little bit
and it put a lot of pressure down there and I was like oh wow like imagine I'm like hey Lindsay I
gotta go like I'm in labor like could you imagine I can't but also I can like I was seriously thinking
okay Kale's gonna get comfortable in her bed with the mic and her water's gonna break like I really
thought that was gonna happen oh my god that would be honest that would be iconic yeah epic
that's the word I was looking for that would be really really amazing um so maybe we just
podcast every day for the rest of the week and hope that something like that happens I'm totally
kidding oh my god well Kale I'm gonna be praying for you and um your olive oil and your honey
and I don't know what the hell you're gonna do with those items but um I'm already traumatized so
bad that I'm just like I don't I don't want to know any more information um but I'm gonna be
praying for Friday and Saturday or Saturday delivery and I know that we won't hear from you
next week um but you'll be back in like two or three weeks so yes I will be back and it's all
updated I definitely will have a baby by next week there's no doubt about that so thank you
Lindsay and I hope that you have an amazing time podcasting without me I will still be listening
