 Oh my goodness, I'm gonna go in live looking like I'm dead. Let's try that again. Obviously this is not about how I look. This is about how I feel and I wanna check in and see how you guys are feeling. That's a little bit better. Grab your water. Hi Patty. Hi Jessica. Jessica, I got your card. Thank you. Hi Rosie. Well, I'm so glad you did, hello, hello. Oh Anna, you having a rough one with just life in general or just filled up your water? Good. Let me tell you what, I never have a reason for coming on. Thank you sweetheart. It was so nice. I also got a Mother's Day card today for my son which is very, okay Anna then you're in the right spot. That's why I'm here. Hi Michelle. How are you? Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you're here live. I should have filled this up a little bit more. Let me fill it up a little more. All you guys watch the door. Don't let anybody out who's already here and welcome anybody who's coming in. And I just, I wasn't thinking because I don't ever think. Thinking comes hard to me but I wanna be nice and cool so I can drink lots of water on the top. Get the water, get your water and all at this YouTube stuff and you know what? I never wanna be professional at this YouTube stuff because I'm not here to be professional. I'm here to do what I want because I'm a big girl. B and B, stay away from the corona. B and B, we have a rule here at the Chitchat Padawack Party. If you're kind and you're pleasant even though you may not be a weight watcher, you can hang out with us because we are like the most wonderful people in the world. And if you just wanna hang out and talk with us because today it's about mental health, not about how we look. You're welcome to stay. Hi everybody. Let me put on the most spectacles and say, hey, oh my gosh, they're always so dirty. Steve takes all of the little cleaners, Ann is asking, anyone else here feel like they're just aren't doing anything well, any of the roles we play? I think we're feeling a lot of stuff, Anna. Hi, Suze. Hey, Michelle. What's S-D-A-C? What's S-D-A-C? I don't know what it is. Hi, Bonnie. Hi, B. Oh my gosh, we haven't chatted in so long, I'm so happy to see you. We can only hope. I've run across a couple people on YouTube that aren't so swell but I try because just because somebody that isn't high-malls, I'm so glad you're here. Yay! I forgot what it's gonna say. Oh, just because you're not in our community, we don't know your name, we're always, we're happy, we're a good bunch. Hi, Mariah. Anna says, I saw you had lens cleaner and your sugar. Anna, rock on, sister girlfriend. You guys are the best. You're the best. Anna is absolutely right. There is some, and you know what? I have no sugar. I went to the store yesterday and I forgot to buy sugar. Hi, darling. Who else am I missing? Oh, Stoptrop and Chug. I knew that but I couldn't put the initials together correctly. So thanks for reminding me, isn't that crazy? And it's still even wet. It's almost fabulous. We are getting off to a fabulous start. So here's the story of my morning. Today is Thursday, correct? I was just sitting here feeling squirrely as I like to say. I haven't eaten any lunch yet. I should. That probably would help. And squirrely and lonely and frustrated and confused and all those things. And what do I do when I feel like that? I pull a doctor to Bombay and I get all you guys in. Hello, Louise. I missed you. And I thought, I'm probably not the only person feeling that way. I missed. So Bonnie's feeling that way too. Hi Esther. Hi Christine. So again, for anybody who, I think most of you guys are here when I come on live, but if you're not, the whole, this whole thing is about anything and everything. It's not about just white watchers. If you want to talk about white watchers, we'll talk about white watchers. CB, I've been feeling down too. I tell you, and that's, I think that I forget that I sit here and I get the, I get the drizzles and the boo-hoo's and I'm like, I'm here all by myself. And I forget you guys are all there by yourself too, except for some of the folks who have their husbands home during the day, which I don't. And I think I'm glad for that for many reasons. Number one, he's supporting us. And so we don't have any financial worries. Molly says, finally feeling like I'm doing this to my good job. For me, if I'm not doing my food movement right, I feel like I'm not doing anything right. Isn't that just the truth? Hello Reese. Hello Marty. You are on live chat, not to chat, right? Not to chat. No, we're here to chat. Hi Tony. I'm not top. I'm sorry Marty, I'm not, not reading, I'm not, I'm we're live right now. I need to, not to chat. I can't figure it out, but you're welcome to stay and chat. Patty, I need to go walking too, but I wanted to get on here and talk. Obviously I need to talk. I haven't stopped talking to see if anybody else needs to talk. B, you do have Mark with you, but sometimes feeling the same way. Yeah. You know, it doesn't really. I don't think it makes that big of a difference. Makes difference in different ways. Like when Steve's home on the weekend, I don't know, it can get so complicated because he and I don't see it exactly the same way this whole thing. So then we have that going for us. You know how your ear, it just, and you have to scratch it with your tongue from the inside. I've got that going on right now. So I kind of enjoy being here alone. I enjoy that all of us at his other grandmothers, cause then I don't feel top chat. I don't know what top chat means, Marty, um, hi and that, how you guys, hey, holding up over there. All I'm trying to say is that I'm sitting here feeling squirrely, feeling lonely, and I know that you guys are out there and I couldn't possibly be the only one feeling like this. So I thought I'd say, Hey, and let you guys say, Hey, see if anybody else needs to talk anything out that maybe they don't want to talk about with their spouse or adult children or anything else. That's what we're here for. So let's start with Bonnie. She's stressed and anxious and worried. She has an 11 year old autistic and he also has anxiety. This virus has some completely worried about germs. Oh Lord Bonnie, I'm so, I can't even imagine how that's, how that's playing out in your house right now. Oh gosh. Anybody who has any words of wisdom for Bonnie, please pop in here. I'm not, I'm, of course, I know the anxiety, but not of an 11 year old autistic child. It has to be so hard. Are you guys able to get outside at all? Um, Marty says, my neighbor's husband is home full time now and he's driving his wife crazy. He gets up at six to water the lawn yesterday, he painted his driveway. Oh, you know, Steve, I don't know if he just like, because Saturday and Sunday we have, we have routines of what we go to Costco, go to the market, we go to home goods, home goods, how I miss you. You know, we do all our stuff and he's not, it's not clicking in still with him. He gets up and he gets ready and he's like, okay, are you ready? And I'm like, am I ready for what? And he just is comfortable just going out and about and I'm not. Let's see. So going through this, I have to say, I do prefer being home alone. I'm, Reese says I'm very sad today, had to put my 15 year old cat down yesterday. I'm so sorry. Oh gosh. Hi, Tracy. That's a little horrible time to go through all of this. It's just a horrible time. I'm, I find that I have a lot of feelings of confusion and, you know, there's just so many, I'll tell you one thing, I just put a thing on my Facebook. I'm gonna, the only thing I'm gonna go on Facebook for is, light, airy stuff, because I'm so tired of all the arguing and it should be this way and it should be that way and the name calling and everything. That's the last thing we need right now. The very last thing we need right now is to be arguing with other people and I won't engage and I found myself reading it and I'm like, why am I reading this? It's just making me feel worse. Be it is confusing, isn't it? So it's like, I'll wake up one day and I'll make a decision on how I'm gonna handle me, my life, this whole thing and then next thing, you know, I don't know. So I think what I'm gonna do is I'm just gonna stay home and do what I've been doing. Darlene, it's so negative. It's just, it's no fun and it can't be good for anybody with mental health. Anybody who's feeling like, hi Esther, hi honey pie, like me and B, where we're confused and then we're reading, this guy say this and this guy say that. We gotta pull ourselves out of that because it's just not good for us. We have, as you guys know, been listening to our music. We got some new music and I even brought this over to show you guys. For those of you guys who know, I've been doing paint by number so much that Steve and I have something. Esther, what's the question mark? Nothing's going on. We're just talking about life. Some of us are feeling a little squirrely and settled. So I thought I'd jump on live if anybody else was feeling like me and just wanted to talk about our feelings and what's going on. About anything you wanna talk about. And B, we have to, we have to remove ourselves from that. We have to turn the news off, find out just what we need to know and be done with it. And put on some nice music, put on some old funny movies, watch a little high society, put on some Disney. We can be responsible for how we feel. We're gonna have our downs, even if we watched Disney straight through. You know what I'm saying? But we can, I wish I could hug you too, Suze. But if I did, I would never let go. Hey, guess what? The kid in your neighborhood, that would be my boy man, who's gonna be 40 years old this year. How in the heck did that happen? Sent me a Mother's Day card. He hasn't given me a Mother's Day card since he made me one in kindergarten. And it's late and he said, I gotta read it to you because it's so funny I've talked to you guys before about our relationship. If you're new here, I had my first of born when I was 18 years old. So he and I have a different relationship than most mothers and sons, we grew up together. And he's a big pain in the ass. I got a little cussing here, I'm gonna use a couple of little cuss words. I know we have a minor in the group, so that makes it tough. Shoot, I can't do this because I have a minor in the group. But he sent me a card and he wrote, mom, I appreciate you more than you know or that I show. Thank you for being the person you are and for putting up with my BS. But he didn't say BS. I love you very much, happy Mother's Day, love Chris. And then his gal Pal wrote over here, thank you for being you. We love you very much and hope your Mother's Day is amazing. So this is like a triumphant milestone that my boy, my man boy sent me. Now, I know that she bought it and he signed it, but it's something, right? Positivity, let's try to inject any positivity that we can. Let me go in here and see what you guys are saying. Let's see, B, honey, I wish I could give you a hug. Me and you and Susie, three-way hug. Anybody else who wants to come in too? Bonnie, I wish I had advice. Anxiety is like, Bonnie, let me ask you, do you yourself suffer from anxiety? Are you familiar with the feeling? Because it's a valid question. My mother does not suffer from anxiety, while all three of her daughters do. So she never knew how to handle us, and that has to be super hard. Marty says, Marty, I love the name Marty for a gal. Are you, Marty, are you a cat's sister? I know a cat has a sister named Marty. A lady in the neighborhood found a little yellow parakeet in her backyard and gave it to me just before the lockdown. Lemon, I love it, has been my entertainment. I love that name Lemon for your little bird. It's hard, I want to watch news, but I know I can't. B, you know what, you're not missing anything. Just find out what you need to know. Esther says, oh, I live in the penthouse, I'm not going near the windows. I don't know what that means. Mark and I have been watching lots of old shows. We are watching Knight Rider. OK, great, that's awesome. Steve and I are watching, as you guys know, we may not know, but we are on a total Grayson-Frankie role. And oh my gosh, I just crack up every night. I'm re-watching what I've already seen, because he hasn't seen it. I laugh so hard, just keep me laughing, and I can make it through this. Oh, welcome, Marty. Hey, make sure you tell Kat that I recognized your name, will you, so that she'll give me a brownie button? It's buffering, it's buffering hope. Is it buffering for anybody else? OK, Bonnie, so then you have a pretty much a general idea of what he's feeling then, right? And it's hard to deal with somebody who has anxiety. Steve doesn't get anxious. So when I'm anxious, I don't feel like I'm getting the help from him that I need, because I don't think he knows how to help me, and that's not his fault, right? Deezing on the hugs too, she's saying hi from Memphis. I'm so glad you're catching it too. Grayson-Frankie, you guys are so funny. I mean, we literally said, Steve, you guys know my honey? He's not a guffaw. I've never heard him guffaw. He did do something really funny the other day, though. And he's cracking up at Grayson-Frankie. OK, good. So it's just hope. I hope it clears that, honey. Faulty Towers. I remember Faulty Towers. Hello, MD. Faulty Towers was a fun show on BBC PBS here. Oh, but I was going to show you. We have been waiting for, oh, gosh, darn it. Hold on, kids, hold on. Dang, it was going so good. Hi, Susan. Watch my WWE coach on QVC. Your WWE coach is on QVC. She will be back on QVC tonight at 11 Eastern. Let me put that in my reminder, and let me check that out if I can fit it into my schedule, because I'm very, very busy. OK, so it's 11 o'clock. Let me look at this, your time. So that's 8 o'clock my time. Remind me to put QVC on at 8 o'clock. Thanks for telling us. I think that's going to be really fun. Let's see. Added. Oh, it's added. OK, Esther says, I walked 20,000 steps today. Ah, isn't it the best? I've been walking. That is so great. Esther, get everybody. Here's to Esther. Your coach is Oprah's coach. Your skipping post, that means you need to change from top chat to live chat. I don't know what that means, you guys. This is the only way I've ever done it. Your skipping post. I'm not reading every single post. I'm confused. Hi, Barbara. I just had to send somebody to the outhouse. Where's your water, Esther? OK, Marty, I'm not sure what that means. How did you? Your skipping posts, that means you need to change from top chat to live chat. I don't know what that means. Let me see. Top chat. I'm seeing all my posts. I believe some is. OK, let's see. Let's see if that changes anything. I'm sorry. I don't know. I think I'm seeing all the posts. Marty, you skipped a post. OK, so I switched it to live chat. And I don't know what the difference is. I just, just now changed it to live chat. I can't explain to you, Lucy. You need to explain it to me, Ricky. I don't know about my life, too. That's interesting. I need to figure out what the difference is. Can anybody explain the difference to me? OK, so I don't read every single post unless I need to. Let me go back and see if I missed something important. I don't think so. I don't read every single post, Marty, if I read something that needs to be addressed already. But we all kind of sit here and talk to each other. Lori is here. It's her day off. She's had 6,300 steps so far today. So every day this week, I have gotten in 10,000 steps. Hi, Michelle. We will buy Michelle. Oh, no. Storage shed. You'd rather go to the storage shed and clean up and hang out with us. I see how you are. Top chat just shows some of the chats. Usually not what the system thinks is spam. Live chat shows everything. Bye, Michelle, honey. I've always just done it this way, and I've never. I'm just teasing you, Michelle. Go do your thing, honey pie. We'll see you on Instagram. All messages are visible. Some messages are just potential spam. It may not be visible. Who knew? OK, so what I've started to tell you guys, right. So Barbara, I'm glad you're here. I got my new paint by numbers today. Because Steve has been winning very patiently. He didn't want to do any more of his paint by numbers without me sitting down and doing mine. And are you ready? Are you guys ready? OK, Susan. OK, here we go. You guys know how I love my Frida. Isn't it awesome? And it's big enough to where I'm not going to have any problems. OK, Lori. Enjoy your outs. Enjoy that sun. And Barbara, this one's going to be so much easier. And the quality of this one, I got it off of Etsy. And the quality of this one is like phenomenal compared to the other one. The other one was fine, no problems. But this one is just like great. And so I'm excited to start this tonight. It's going to be fun. And I have like 400 Frida coffee mugs. So now I can hang that. OK, so look at I was right, you guys. I just got a message from my son. Because I thanked them. And he says, give all the credit to Jocelyn. I'm terrible with cards. But thanks to her, it happened. Love you, ma. I love you too, boy man. Isn't it cool, Susie? Also, they had two options. You could get a turquoise background or a yellow background. Where exactly on Etsy Esther? I will find out for you and get that information to you somehow. If you go to Etsy and you just search Frida paint by numbers, it'll probably just come up. Lucky too, I'm excited. You know what, you guys? When I get on here and I just ramble, ramble, ramble to you, I just feel so much better. B, I hope we haven't left. Is anybody else? Is everybody feeling OK? Is anybody feeling anything? Via an old man in a rowboat. Marty, you know what? I don't think you saw the one I just did. It's really darling. And I got here really fast. It was from China too. Barbara, did I tell you that I got your card? I thought I told you that I got your card. Did I tell everybody else that I got your card? Your card is all, oh, I'm so, you know what? Did I do it in a, I think I did it in a, not of live, but maybe more, because I remember saying it somewhere and showing it and saying that you painted it. Yes, I got your card. It's already displayed in my bedroom on my vanity. It's so beautiful. Thank you so much. I got one from Jessica too, both of you guys. Oh, yeah, because I did say something because I remember thinking I talked about Barbara's card, but I didn't talk about Jessica's card because I can't find Jessica's card. MD is, she lost four pounds this week. That's fantastic. I love it, Barbara. I'm gonna frame that one for sure because I don't want it to get ruined. Everybody, let's take a drink and toast to MD for her big loss. Holy Moses. Sus is just unfit like I wish I could be motivated to clean out drawers and such, but I'm not. You know what? It's not till Wednesday, Marty. These guys are so fantastic. They're on the ball and they're early and they're sweet and I love them to death. Shoot, what was I gonna say? Sus, I have all the cupboards in Oliver's bathroom, except for my hairbrush. Everything in there, nothing is used. All I have to do is pull the drawers out, dump them in the dumpster and be done with it. Have I done it? No, it's just, I feel the same way. I just don't feel motivated. Thank you, Marty. That's a fantastic loss. Now, let's talk about, wait for a minute. Anybody wanna talk about, wait for a minute? I have walked 10,000 miles. No, 10,000 steps every day this week. Today I have not gone out yet. Hi, Jennifer. Haven't gone out today. I have stayed at, if not under, my daily points. I think I have hit 30 exactly every day. I have been drinking my water and I am so up. I got on the scale this morning when I woke up before I got dressed. And I'm up and I don't know how much I should, it's like, part of me is like, and Nina, you need to get a grip and the other part is, what more can I do? Honestly, you guys, I don't know what more I can do. I'm eating good foods. I don't know. I don't know. Susan says, had a full bonus idea attack this morning. She lives in New York City and had to go to the bank at FedEx. Someone coughed in the bank twice and I flipped out. His mask was pulled down under his chin. I'm so sorry. I can't even imagine what it would be like to be in New York right now. Oh, okay, we're having a flyover. I just want to make sure that I see it when it comes on. Marty averages 500 steps, foot surgery really knocked my socks off. No, I don't take anything. I do, I take, as needed, I take something from my back, but since I've been walking, my back hasn't been hurting and I take something for anxiety, but I don't take anything. Susan, they're gonna have a whole bunch of military planes like the Blue Angels or something. They're gonna fly over Ventura County, which is my county, and they're gonna start at one end and they're gonna fly over all the hospitals. They're doing it for the first responders to show them thank you for doing that. So I want to be out on my patio. I set a reminder on here. Hi, Cindy. So I don't know. And then the other part of me says, I just, there's no reason that I should be gaining weight. Absolutely not. Okay, Susan, are you home and safe now, I hope? And I'm sure you came home and scrub-a-dub-dubbed and, you know, I went to Ralph's yesterday. That's our Kroger because I wanted, I needed to get a couple of things for dinner. Guess who made dinner last night? Cindy lost 1.7. Okay, folks, we gotta take a drink. Every time somebody comes in, this is they lost. Just drink anyways. I stress raises cortisol, which I know, but Susan, Jennifer, the flyover's today, honey. I just watched it on the news. Today's Thursday. I can't, I'm like, I'm stressed out, but I'm kind of my normal stressed out. I can't have that much. I don't know, could I? Maybe I should see a doctor. Anna wants to talk about activity. I was doing this so well with my steps, but my stupid knee hurts after I do. 10K steps, too many days in a row. That makes me so mad. Now I'm doing yoga and walking workouts. Good, you've got it, girl, you're good. You're moving your body, that's what counts. That's what counts. Yeah, I saw that they've done it at a few other places. Where are you in California? I'm trying to think of where they flew over yesterday. I'm in Simi Valley, Hope Gamed. You're in good company, Hope. Oh, Susie, thank you for that. Thank you, Smith. Susan, oh gosh. Mindy's too hard on herself. Mindy is a personal friend of mine that I've been texting with all morning, and I think she's doing okay. I think she's too hard on herself. Cindy's been walking her butt off. Barbara says we had a flyover last week, went almost right over my house, so cool. There's just nothing like a good flyover in fireworks, right? Not necessarily in that order. Lori says yesterday my weight was perfect. I was 142.2 then today I weigh in, and my weigh in 144, what the heck? I know, MD is gonna plant and mulch. That counts, absolutely. Okay, Esther, I will help you, I promise. Remind me as I'm wrapping it up, because I don't wanna jump up, but I will look it up for you, I promise. You know what, don't worry about it. I don't stress eat. Marty, there's something about your family. You guys are lucky. Oh, you're in San Jose, so you're up north. Is there a troll, Barbara? Hope gained over three pounds. Oh, thank you, Barbara. Hang on a second, you guys. I wanna get this information. Right here for you, Esther. But I wanna warn you, it was more expensive than the, oh, I'm sorry, I didn't even see him. Do you want me to get in there and get him out for good? I haven't seen him. Why haven't I seen any of his? All right, hang on a second, you guys. Let me see if I can help Barbara out. I'm not seeing anything. See, is this why we're getting more trolls now? Because, oh, okay. Okay, Esther, are you ready? Let's see, can't see. Thanks, guys. Now, is this the difference between having the live chat and the top chat? Now we're gonna have more trolls because we were pretty good the way we were before. Okay, Esther, this is the name of the company. You better be listening, lady. It's spelled E-L-L-E-C-R-E-E-P-D-X. Also, Ellie Cree, she creates at Etsy.com. If you didn't get that, let me know and I'll message it or email or something until that effect. She has a lot of other beautiful ones too. The other thing I wanted to tell you guys, for anybody who saw my Costco haul and that chicken that I got, that's the chicken that they use in their meals, but now they're saying, let's see, I can't see that's why. Do you guys remember the bag chicken I got that they now all of a sudden they're selling? It's already cooked. It's already seasoned. Does any, thanks. Good. Okay, I made it for dinner last night and it's fantastic. What I did was I put it in salsa in a saucepan with a little bit of chicken broth and I just let it, because it's frozen and I just cooked it at medium until it was warm enough and made tacos for Steve and he loved it. He said, this stuff is so great. Anna, my Costco's out of all the frozen chicken breasts so they have this stuff. Did you see it in my videos? In my video, it's in a bag and it's just cut up and ready to go and he loved it. Oh my gosh, you know what? You do know who Free Day is, don't you, Barbara? Susan, right now I can't eat how I normally do just because of what I am and am not able to get at the store. I've been doing this for three years and I'm pretty well versed in what I can and can't have and how many points and this and that and all that stuff. It's just, it's just not the same right now. I don't know if I wanna worry, oops. And as far as being out of chicken, I don't know how that happens. When we went to look for our frozen chicken in the bags and it wasn't there, we were like, what in the heck? And Jennifer, they didn't have any rotisserie chickens. I thought so, Barbara. Okay, that was a dumb question. I'm sorry, I'm getting rattled for some reason because I feel like you're having to deal with all these trolls if I should put it back to the way we normally do it because we normally don't have so many trolls. So much we can do with it. I mean, and he loved it. He's, poor guy, he loves his food and he had four tacos and I was making them really big and I'm like, him, baby, you just got a soldier marching. You have my support, US soldier. Well, thank you. I enjoy any support. We have that too, Marty. I don't want that stuff. I can't wrap my brain around. I'm sure it's good stuff. I'm sure people can find really good stuff to do with it. But this is, we have that as well, but this stuff is different and it's so, so good. The idea of meat storage is just scary. No frozen, Marty says no frozen chicken in the bags here either. Ended up at Winn-Dixie for flash frozen press. That's probably what we're gonna have to do. Shortage. You know, I told Steve when we were out at different stores, I said, you know, the girls, cause that's how I refer to you guys as the girls. He knows who I'm talking about when I say that. I said, telling me there's gonna be a meat shortage because I don't, I can't watch the news, you guys. It just gets me too unnerved. And I just feel like he's not taking this stuff seriously enough. Maybe I just need to get out there and just go buy it on myself. Jennifer, really? Good, Esther, that's awesome. I'm glad you found it. Hi, Tampson, didn't see you come in. You guys gotta remember there's so many people such as myself, we can't plant anything. We have a patio. I wouldn't plant anything. I got two green thumbs. We've been looking for a chest freezer for two months. They're sold out. Walmart is the only place I can get fat free cheddar. However, to do it, I'm not going to go to Walmart. However, I support you, Susie. I don't want to go anywhere. You know, it's so funny because I get in my car and I'm like, okay, I got my sanitizer, I got all my stuff, right? I'm good. I can do this. And then once I get inside the store, I don't know, I don't know. Hi, Cam. Lobster tails for under $30 a box and shrimp. Right, because we all have that, right? Oh no, Kim, that's a drag. Hey, Sue. Yo, yo, yo. At first, before I looked at your name, I'm like, oh no, another draw, but it's Sue. Hey, yo, yo, yo. We're just chatting about anything anybody wants to talk about. Some of us are home alone and just need to chat with the homies. I wanted to do container gardening, too. Is there a reason you guys aren't doing it? I'm not doing it, because I don't like getting my hands dirty and I don't like gardening. I don't know about everybody else. Oh, Susie, you have a Trader Joe's up there? Oh gosh. Yes, Bee, that's how I am. It's like I drive up there and I'm super excited, you know, and I'm not fearing, but the thing is I'm not, I don't have anxiety over fear that I'm going to contract the virus. I just have general, it's just, it's so different and so odd now. Oh, TJ's though, it's worth the drive. I went there yesterday and I got my asparagus risotto and some asparagus, and then I think I forgot to take pork chops out of the freezer. Well, I'll put them on the cookie sheet. You guys know all that trick? Do you guys all know that trick? If you forget to take them out. See, Bee, it's just the whole, just the whole experience, right? Me, but they have one of a kind things and they're being super careful. Trader Joe's is being super careful, you guys. I wonder, see, I saw those, Barbara, and I wonder if they're kind of the same thing. If you just have a regular cookie sheet and you put your meat on there, I don't know the science behind it, but it defrosts really fast. There's our governor. Our poor governor is taking a hit right now. People are, I wouldn't want to have his job right now. People are, people are just so mean. I just don't understand, you know, armchair, not armchair quarterbacks, but armchair governors. Everybody thinks they can do it better. And it does work. So I'm gonna put those pork chops on that. And then we're gonna have the asparagus and the asparagus risotto. Oh, so, so good. Yes, I take it out of the pack and just stick it on there. All right, what am I missing? He wasn't being offensive, was he? Oh, hello, Noel. B says, I always have anxiety in the start so you can imagine how bad it is now. You're anxious normally when you go to the store. I know I feel the same way. It's like I need a drink before I go out to... And you know what? You're absolutely allowed to do that as long as you're not drinking. I say, come over here and we'll have Steve, we'll have a little, where are my dad used to call it? Snort, my dad would call a snort. We'll have a little snort and we'll have Steve drive us to the store. I don't, I'm stuck on something here. Let me go back for just a second. Barbara, are you, yes, you're still here. The Anemic Chicken Blog is actually good to use in dishes like green chicken enchiladas. Absolutely, Olay Wraps, yeah. But I just can't bring myself to use it. I don't know, it's just something up here. I've tried to, like I've had it in my cart. And then once we get up there, I'm like, I don't think I'm gonna use this. Let's take it out. Barbara's getting a haircut. Go enjoy your walk, Patty. And I will, you know I'll talk to you later. I'm missing something. And I think that's great, Susan. No, I'm so glad because you guys should be the last place to open. I'm not gonna be opening. Everybody here is pushing him to open. I'm not going anywhere. Right, hope, I know. Okay, enjoy the sunshine, MD. Enjoy that sunshine. Bye, Patty, bye, MD. I guess so. And I'm wondering if it has to do with that setting. Good, Esther, let me know how you enjoy it. Bye, guys. Well, if anybody wants to give me a thumbs up and if there's anything anybody needs to talk about their program, if anybody's having any issues like I am, I just don't, I don't know. I'm also feeling good about my choices. I'm switching up my foods. When I plateau, it's because I eat the same stuff all the time. Guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty. But I'm changing all that now because of the way things are, I kind of have to. And I thought that would help. They did, Marty? Where do you live? What state are you in? Trol Army, scary, Marty. I don't think I would go. But I have to tell you that yesterday, thank you, Susan, it's actually a little road dress. And I won't tell you why I have to wear it. When I was at the park walking yesterday because I did go to my trail to walk, I saw a nice big group of folks sitting out in the middle of the field and they were all social distancing in their lawn chairs six feet away. And I looked at them with great envy because we don't ever see anybody or anything. And I thought, they are doing it right. They're getting some fresh air. God love them. And I just thought that was the greatest thing ever. I don't know how you would handle a backyard party though. I'm intrigued. Yeah, it is hard to stay apart. 11 free and sassy. You guys are opened up over there, are you Esther? You're in Florida, Marty, okay. I knew that and I forgot. Everything's gone up in price, Rachel. Me too, Barbara, I just am. And it's a shame and that's just another one of the things we can't control, but that doesn't mean I'm not spending Steve Johnson's money on Amazon. I got Amazon. I should do a video on all the stuff I've got on Amazon during the corona because I can't button my shorts. Good Tony, that's good. Christine says, my kids came over on Mother's Day one family at a time stood in the front porch and I stayed in the doorway. Well, that's so, so sweet. Have you, Barbara? It's just been too darn easy to do, you know? It's like, what don't I need? And I bet Amazon has it. It's Mark's co-worker. We are 63 and they're in their fifties. It would be so nice to meet people close in age, but I swerve away from people. I should maybe be one of the sisters too. Oh my gosh. And you know what? I gotta figure out a way to keep the gas-darn Amazon dude delivery guy away from the house when Steve's home. You guys have no idea how much stuff you've sent me. You guys have just adorned me with so many wonderful gifts. Hey, I got Cindy speaking of betting on Amazon. I, we needed a new quilt because I keep, I have two that I switch out and one of them I just don't care for, the other one I accidentally ripped. So I went on Amazon and as you guys know, I was pretty much, you know, spin the wheel and then I love it. It's the best one we have ever had and it was the least expensive and it's so soft and thin. Cause here in California, we don't want anything thick. Oh my gosh. It's amazing, but I should do a video on all the stuff I've purchased at home. Just cause Cindy, sometimes you just need new sheets just cause I had a Tupperware. Are you buying it from Miguel Pal Amy over there? And you were spending a lot of time in bed and in pajamas. I mean, look how many pajamas I've purchased too. Teya says my Amazon delivery person is social distancing but she yells out the truck. That's awesome. Mine just lives in on the front porch and knocks on the door. Oh, Susan, thank you. I mean, I can fit into my shorts. I'm exaggerating. I've been known to embellish a thing or two in my time but I just feel like being comfortable. I don't like, I'm gonna put my shorts on when I go walking cause I don't like, I don't like where, I don't like my legs rubbing together when I walk. I've got my fair share but it's too warm and it's too warm here right now for any kind of tight fitting clothes. Marty, I have mad props respect for you girls taking care of your folks. My dad has Alzheimer's and we actually, okay, so my dad has Alzheimer's. My dad, oh, it's a long really weird story. My dad is a 50 year recovered alcoholic, okay? He stopped drinking when he was in his 30s. Milton AA, he just doesn't drink. Well, he got, the Alzheimer's got worse. And somehow he started getting some access to alcohol which made him a very scary person. And long story short, we weren't aware of everything and he was put into a care home, a memory care place right two days before this hit, my mom pulled him out and brought him home. Could you imagine if you, I can't imagine if my dad was in that place during all of this. I think right now that is what I am the most grateful for in my life is that whatever it was that made my mom have the wherewithal, it wasn't because of this because that she thought, babe, better to bring him home. Oh my gosh, I can't even, can't even think. My husband doesn't even ask anymore. I do like him, Cindy. I like, you know, I got a pair of pajamas at Kohl's like a gazillion years ago that are my favorite pajamas. So now, but I went to buy more and they didn't have them. Now if I get a pair that I like, I go back and I buy mass quantities. I hate to not go, but don't want to die either. Me, Barbara is somebody else raising their grandson. Lons are done, now my fingers are tingling. Marilyn says, you showed BH Chipotle chicken yesterday so went to store today and asked for it. Oh, Boris and the lady said, we haven't had that in two years. You know what? They were very picky about who they sell it from. We get ours at Sprouts. Our Ralph's also has, I know Marty, that's why I was telling you. I know, honey, and I'm so sorry. I follow what goes on in your family with your sister. And bike shorts under skirts. You know what? And I don't even have big thighs. I'm just a short wearer. I'm a California girl and I just like my shorts, but right now they're just a little too snug and it's pissing me off. I have to be honest with you, but I'm comfortable in this for right now. I'll have some lunch then I'll put my shorts on and I'll go walking. Let's see, Marty, that's why I told you that story because I could so relate. I'm being kind of cautious in what I'm saying right now because sometimes you don't know who's watching, there's a little bit more to the story. Someday I'll have Kat tell you. Esther says, you own a nursing home, Esther? Over there or over here? Oh my gosh, that's gotta be very stressful right now. Thank you, Barbara. I have to be honest though, this week without him it's been so nice to go walking and do my thing and it's just when he whines and he's so self-sufficient, self-reliant, does a good job and he hates leaving the house and that's very hard on me. I know, Susan, oh my gosh. Mom's gonna be 89 in August, has normal brain trinkets, so she's home under Kat's care, no big dementia. But Marty, it's okay, I mean it's okay. Who's your dad? You guys put so much care into him. I mean whenever your sister came on and I'd hear her and I'd see her and I just, because I'm not down helping my parents. I have to stay here. They're in San Diego, I am off the LA border in Ventura County and I'm here raising my grandson and I have no help to them. Zulu, let's see. So don't beat yourself up over it please, friend, please, please. Or I'm gonna call your sister and have her hit you over the head with something. Love Amazon, but Zulu really gets me in trouble. I had to stop looking at it. I've never done it on Zulu, I think I went there once and looked at something and then something happened. I don't know what, but I never went back. The boar's head teriyaki chicken instead. Yeah, it's super good. And you know what? Oh, Marilyn, let me tell you about another one that's really good. All of you guys who like or can access boar's head, Esther, I'm not surprised because it's just me alone. The boar's head aloha turkey. Okay, everybody take notes. Get your pen as my mom would do, get your paper. Boar's head turkey, it's only seasonal, but it's out now. It's called aloha and it's got just a fine, fine amount of pineapple juice in it. So I put that aloha, you guys will remember those who had the original 35, you buy that aloha turkey, put it on your wrap, put some fat free-fetted cheese on there, put little pieces of pineapple, roll it up. It's so delicious. In fact, I'm gonna go buy some today, I think. It's so good, you guys. Does Luloro make shorts? I don't think they do. I don't think they do, but I don't, that's the thing is I promised myself that I would not buy any new clothes over this whole thing. And the stuff that I can still fit into, I'm gonna wear, but I refuse to buy any clothes, refuse. Esther, I'm so glad that you're here. That doesn't mean caring for mom is easy. Oh, I know, I know. She's sneaky, leaves her walk or breaks, all the health rules. Believe me, I got a sneaky mom too. She's healthy, but they're sneaky, oh boy. Yeah, Anna, yours doesn't wanna leave either. And then, you know what, that's what I heard. But it's okay though, you know what, I've never even made it to goal. She'll get it off. Our Krog was here, sales boards had excellent quality. It's the best quality. I won't eat any other. I know, I love my pineapple soos. I love it so much. Good, Susan, I thought they were really good. I mean, they're cakey, they're not like regular donuts, but a regular donut is what, eight to 12 smaller points? I'm not gonna do that. We were almost at an hour. You guys been hanging out with me. You guys rock so much. I am gonna have it. I'm gonna give myself five minutes to say my goodbyes because who is it? Somebody else was saying that they're bad at goodbyes. Molly, I don't even know if you stayed or if you left. I never saw you again. If you're listening and why you're doing something else, it helps me so much to talk, Barbara, to have you guys. If I didn't have this YouTube channel and I brought you guys all into my life, I would not be handling this situation well. I can honestly tell you that. Marty says I like sweets and make an easy low point cake, box of angel food cake, mixed with can of crushed pineapple. Yep. Marty on my cook with me is I've got a lot of sweet stuff in there for low points. So check it out when you or if you feel compelled to do so. Oh, thank you, Tamsin. Thank you, Christine. Hi, Terry. Compliment, thank you so much. There's lots of great mud cakes too. Hungry Girl's got a lot of good ones. But yeah, I like the sweets. They're fun to make, so I make those. I need to do a cook with me. What, you guys say the nicest things and it just makes me feel better. B, if you haven't left yet, you know you're always welcome to message me, call me, text me. If you need to talk at all, I'm always here. Share the link. Marty, share the link. Well, we're here. This is my YouTube channel. So if you come back here after we leave and go to my playlist, it's there, right? Is there anybody here who can share my playlist link for Marty for me? I'll be your best friend. I'll let you ride my bike. Serious Beasts, all you guys, but we've been friends for a long time now, so please, if you ever need to just reach out to somebody that isn't Mark, because Mark seems like a quiet gent like Steve, and sometimes we just need to talk to like-minded folks, right? I'll tell you something funny. We were talking about the car parade the other day. I did tell you guys this, but I'm gonna tell you again, and then we'll go, because I gotta eat and walk. I gotta get out and walk. So I told Oliver, I said, these darn car parades and no offense to the folks who are doing them and enjoying them. Totally not offensive. I don't care for them. I think I, I don't know. I don't know why. I'm not normal. I don't know, but I said to Oliver, I said, now Oliver, for my birthday, totally joking because I don't have any friends to start with. I said, no, make sure you don't give me a car parade for my birthday. Nana doesn't want a car parade for her birthday because I was kidding. And he got all bent out of shape. He's like, but Nana, that's the only thing I can do for you. There's nothing else I can possibly do for you for your birthday like he was actually gonna do it. So funny. All right, kids, I'm gonna go eat my board's head, my wrap, and then I'm gonna go to the park and I'm gonna walk. Susan, you are all alone. Please, you know what? Oh, thanks, Marilyn. Oh my gosh, hugs to you for reminding me. Hugs to all of you for just hanging out with me during this time. I truly do appreciate it. If there was a way I could show my appreciation, I would. I hope you all just take my word for it. I'm always here to talk. Everybody have a great day. Hugs and love. Swerve away from the germs, people. I love you all so much. You bring me so much solace. All right, tomorrow's weigh in day. I'm gonna hop on. Oh, Terry, you know what? We've all been doing too much crying, guilty. And I hope, thank you guys. Love you so much, Sue's. And I got some other stuff I wanna talk about, YouTube boys. And maybe tomorrow we'll do that. I'm gonna go have a good walk, I'm gonna have a good lunch. After weigh in tomorrow, I'll hop on. I might come on a little bit earlier. Everybody have a great day. If you feel so inclined to hit the thumbs up, I would sure like it. Marty, it's been wonderful meeting and getting to know you. I love that you popped over and anybody else who came over from Kat's channel. Love you, Barbara, love you all. You're just the best. Thank you. My heart, thank you. My head, thanks you. Love.
