 Hey you guys This me want to give y'all a quick update. We're now in October girl this year is going by so fast We are venturing out a lot more. We're doing a lot more indoor playgrounds, but still being safe My husband is like don't get too comfortable Spitting but my husband is like don't get too comfortable. I'm like what what do you mean? I get what he's saying though so Where we were going out a lot the past two weeks, but the numbers are slowly They went down, but then they went there trickling back up again because we didn't too comfortable So now we're gonna ease back out big ease back off and what I mean when we're going out again We're wearing our masks washing our hands But we went from only going to one or two places a week to going out to it every two or three days And do a multiple places in one day. We're gonna stop that just to be safe We're gonna stop doing that because the numbers aren't trickling back up anyway. Oh, we can go talk about this car on the whole Um With that being said JB goes to daycare twice a week now He has to y'all work is when I tell y'all I am forever Grateful for my job, but Christine and I are pulling in Minimum ten hour days we there's no day where we don't work at least ten hours from five to four Five to three five in the morning. We're pulling in those hours. It is ridiculously Busy right now and I think you know, I give all honor and glory to God for blessing me with this job But we are stressed like her anxiety is high and I told her she needs to stop it because we feed off each other We're close. We're friends. So we feed off of each other and y'all I'm laughing because she said one day She said what it was actually this past Monday. She's like guess what me and my husband did I said, what do y'all do? She said we just bench watch all your blogs. I said, oh hell girl She said in one block you were talking about me. I'm like, oh hell girl What did I say? I'm so sorry if I offended you y'all. I don't be remembering what I'll be saying in my videos She said no, you she said no, no, no, you're funny And it made me feel good because she said they heard her husband watch a lot of different bloggers and by far I'm the most entertaining so I'm like, thank you Christine So thank you to Christine's husband for following me and y'all watching my videos. I do appreciate that. So anyway, um, We're busy. We're stressed It is what it is y'all so JB has to go somewhere so I can get my work done We have started to the point to where I'm homeschooling like this past weekend I homeschooled a little bit both Saturday and Sunday I need to stop that because I don't I feel like I don't have a day off Because I'm basically I'm doing something every day. I need to start scheduling in some meantime I'm too afraid to go to the nail shop and look at my nails girl. I did these myself fall colors Isn't that beautiful? Yeah, it's come through. These are they're a little short for me, but they're cute. I Need to figure out how to start scheduling some me time whether it be a bubble bath Because even in the mornings, I'm getting up early used to be in the mornings I would get up and relax and have a me time Now I'm getting up early doing lesson planning and all this other stuff. So yeah, you guys We have started meeting up with other homeschool parents One of his good friends actually decided the mom decided to homeschool But she told me this class weekend that after this year, it's it for them. They're gonna go back to school. So Stop I'm sure all this is that free too, huh? Oh, yeah I'm gonna get just up on here Is this even though? Why is this not is it?

We've only been out for like two hours, but Child okay, so this is what JB wanted me to tell y'all y'all have excuse their coloring So as we are going into Albertsons, I see this woman with the highest hair like it is like What is her name Tammy Faye? It's like the drag queen high Like it is that high and I'm pretty sure I saw this woman years ago And she had some crazy looking wig on like she purposely made it look crazy and it's a she Anyway, so I'm like JB. I have to look at this woman's hair. He said what he's am I said this woman has the biggest hair? So we're walking around y'all. I'm not doing this to make fun of the woman because that's not me You know, I don't purposely make fun. That's what she likes That's what she likes and honestly if she would have caught me looking at her I would have been like I love your big hair, which I do I love is a little too big But I love that I love when people go against the norm Because I'm pretty sure she gives a lot of stares and a lot of but that's who she is So let's just talk about this. So when we were going when we were going in store and I saw her She had this big hair Bigger than mama's. Ain't no like small hair like me. Big hair It's not so country y'all And then and then and and and then I was acting like a ninja I was crouching down walking and then and then when I saw a wall I hit behind it and then and then I was looking at some cars. She was she was over there next to me ran, ran over here, ran over here She and and then and then we were looking at JB didn't want to When we were looking at our chaps, we we we saw her we saw her by the chaps before we were so and then we got to the She was right there at the other side of the rail and big hair We'll be in chase by the granny with the big hair. I said child Little lawyer that hair when I tell y'all know me. I know big hair girl. Look at me that hair It was a wig piece is what it was it was a it was actually It wasn't like a piece it was a wig It was a whole wig that she turned into a ponytail Y'all she turned into a bless her heart bless her heart All right boo boo three things Pick up three things Three things come on sweetheart. Do you want me to nail polish? I nail polish. Okay There's some conditioner Conditioner pick out any any of those okay. All right, so We can do this back here. Okay, and then we're gonna go fill up some water stuff and really learn about capacity So okay, so if you look at this look Look underneath a very small print. It says a number And then f l do you see it? You probably can't see it on there Let me show you See where my fingernail is it hold on baby. See where my fingernail is at Right with my fingernail. You see it. You see it now Do you see the What is that you see it's right there? Oh my gosh What does it say?

Which one is heavier this one or this one Which one is heavier by weight that one? Child. Oh, you know why I'm so sorry. That's because I've used this That's why all right, baby So we're gonna try to fill up this bottom and eat all blend What does it say? What number is at the bottom of that oil blend? It's conflated juice Right, but what number is at the bottom of it? What number do you see for me? So that means it's four ounces. Okay, so if I if I could look at it I'm gonna guess about one tablespoon. You want a spoon? Would you like a spoon? No, because I got you don't need to put that in there We're gonna put all of these in here. Okay. Oh, so let's pour Let's pour this one So pour a little squirt a little bit of each oil into this measuring cup. Okay Is it squirting out? Yeah All right. That's more than enough now put a few sprinkles of 15 oh child you Child doesn't know it pour it very slowly Very one thing you learned about capacity We wait, okay. Good job and then most products have what on it Numbers, yeah Now that was fun, honey, that was still that was still learning. Oh, you feel cute Look at your fat cell. I mean not that y'all. You know, he's so chubby. You're so chubby. Oh, you're so squishy You have to wash this hair. Lord have mercy. We're gonna wash your hair tonight. Okay It's a start coming baby You found the flip-flop. Yeah, it's a start coming. They say to stay on Which way we're gonna go? Let's go this way How do you get up there? Dave say hi Let go chickens so we are child Cleaning these rooms because we're having our carpet replaced. You could tell this carpet looks horrible This is the carpet that came with the house. Um, this is what the original looked like and yeah We had a little bit of water damage here, which is why it's doing that. Um So we have to really My husband was like, how are you gonna get all this stuff out? You know, girl I told you it was scratching his stomach looking around at all this stuff, but we managed to get everything out Um, and the color is very nice. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. You guys I'm in JB's room trying to be quiet because it's too early to want a girl Let me switch to this hand because baby Today we're getting our carpet installed. You can see that girl Amen, we're getting the carpet installed and I'm gonna have to speak to my husband to tell him Look, you know, he gave me a heads up what he's thinking about how he was looking I'm gonna have to explain to him. This needs to be it for a while y'all because Because I'm at home and I work from home. He Feels like oh, you could be home with them and you know manage everything. No, you need to stop this So because I think this would have been the third The third house project we've done this year And two in the middle of a pandemic. I'm gonna tell him now This needs to be it. We need to wait The only thing else that I think we have left to do is to redo the cabinet We need to wait. There's no rush to do anything. It's not a priority But it's it's still another stressor. So Um, I think it needed we definitely need new carpet, but do we need it now? You know what I mean? So I don't know how many people are gonna be up in this house, but I know they better be wearing a mask Okay, so they should be coming in like three more hours I want to run and get jaypees some breakfast before they come here. He ate all his little raggedy ass cereal last night I guess he could have some oatmeal, but Yeah Um, we've been doing so this is what we do what it's kind of shaking up in the household like this So for example yesterday, we do something we have to do something every day So yesterday we worked on his little project and we did language arts. Okay. We read two books um Today we will do math Which will be an online modules. Okay And a little bit of reading tomorrow, you know getting the house in order tomorrow. He's gonna go to child care Then we're gonna go in thirsty and friday And we're going to do a little bit of math a little bit of language arts And then starting next week, whatever I had planned for this week We'll be doing next week if that makes sense, you know going hard. I've gave him a heads up We're going to be going hard starting next week. And he's like anyway Um Y'all so he woke up at like three o'clock in the morning Which is okay because I typically wake up between four and 4 30 Lately I have that but baby he woke up with a little nosebleed um I took him to the couch and we both slept on the couch till six but I slept jacked up to where Here all The way to the middle of my back is was strenuous. I don't know if this is just something, you know with with Y'all know how they say devs come dev comes in threes It has been ridiculous So many losses and I know you guys have experienced and no people have had so many losses Someone that I know and I used to work with at david's bridal Um, I'm not gonna say your name, but she's a sweet girl and we used to always help each other like She was considered a I was a bridal consultant And she was considered a junior consultant But one thing I noticed is that all of the junior consultants were latino They were without worker bees and the bridal consultants were typically White except from me and one other girl, right? I just find that really odd now But anyway, the bridal consultants some of the bridal consultants consider themselves a little bit Higher um, and this was in a certain area of Phoenix paradise valley whereas a little bit paradise valley is very interesting It's it's on the it's on the cusp of on the edge of scott's cell But scott's cell have changed change here in in um, phoenix it used to be that You have to be in a certain economic status to live there now girl. He could be making 40 000 dollars And boom, I'm I live in scott's cell girl, but we used to live in scott's cell about Before we moved here actually before we purchased a house girl. What's the point? Anyway, this junior consultant I always have to do the consultants or the junior consultants were responsible for Rearranging all the shoes some the jewelry that veils y'all Working in a bridal store is no joke. It's a lot of physical work because those dresses can be heavy, baby um We had to go through the racks and rearrange all those dresses When I tell you my body would be sore my body would be sore Yeah, so I would help them though at the end of the shift. I will make sure and go over You know, I'm like, you know, do you guys need any help? They're like, yeah So I would help them and they would say Vivian you like you're the only one that helps us those other girls I'm like, girl, I'll help you but anyway one of them her husband One was that last week her husband had a work injury and fell into a coma Y'all when I read that I felt so bad. I started reaching out to her I said girl, I'm praying for you and your family because she has three small ones Like I think her oldest one is JB's age But the other two are babies like one is two another one's four He slipped into a coma There was no brain activity and they pulled the plug three days ago And when I read that I felt so bad for her then I get on two days ago and my home girl Kirby said I need thoughts and prayers My brother's in the um burn unit. I'm like, oh my god Y'all, so there's a message in this and and when that happened When I read that I started getting a lump in my throat because I'm already because Kirby's a good friend of mine too And I was like girl I said, you know what? And then a little part of me said I'm tired of this. I'm tired of praying over people I just wanted to stop in the Holy Spirit check me and said, don't you ever cease praying Do not ever cease praying. So y'all this is going to be happening. We are not mortal You know, we are not living forever just because we are Christians don't mean that everything's going to be perfect Doesn't mean that everything around us going to be perfect We cannot stop praying and praying over people really like check myself and be like, okay One hunk girl lost her husband. This one's um brothers up is You know in the burn unit. I'm praying up with them. I'm praying up with them constantly Last night. Yeah, I know I know last night. I get an urgent request Vivian you need to cancel all these classes so-and-so had a family emergency I said what? I said what what what's going on, you know And the manager came back. She said it's so hard, but her brother just suddenly her her sibling one of her siblings She suddenly died. I said, you know what? So that's why I said comes in threes, right? I said wow, but regardless it becomes in threes twos ones fours whatever We always need to continue to pray over people and lift them up in this time and letting them know that god has to last say um and ultimately which is so hard y'all and I look I started crying again over something I saw a um uh preview of a movie that um Viola Davis and Chadwick bossman and some other people as a great cast then I started crying again over him but I read a I'm not sure if it's true because you can't believe everything on on the on uh the interweb I read a Post from his brother his brother's apparently is a pastor Or a preacher something like that a man of god basically and his brother was like The day before he died Chadwick came to me and said I need to let him go I need to let him go And at the end of the day sometimes we be praying for a miracle and praying for that person to be healed But what's so hard? What is so hard is to pray for that god's will be done because that person's tired that that person that you're praying over To be healed they may be tired and suffering Especially if it's cancer. So yeah, we may be praying for a healing because we want them here with us But at the end of the day, we have the trust in and the lord and know that he Um knows what's best for us more importantly knows what's best for that person and y'all y'all now i'm crying Because it can hurt to see someone suffering Especially like with an illness and you want them to be healed You got to let them go And nine times out of ten especially with me and y'all know those of you who work in the medical field Uh me working for hospice most of the time when you let that person go they go ahead and die peacefully Um, they be holding on for other people. They don't be holding on for themselves They're holding on for their family and their loved ones. They do not Child pleas they don't so I'm having to really reflect and think about my prayers. Okay. Maybe I I At the end of the day, I you know, I changed my prayer for my one friend I said just lord strengthen her give her the strength give her peace and let your will be done I can no longer, you know, I don't want this person to suffer. Yes. I'm sure she wishes she had her husband back, but You know same thing with my girlfriend and her and her I think it's her brother in a burn unit His brother his body's covered with burns, you know, I'm praying for her healing It's rough y'all it's rough and these is rough y'all it really is so Um on to a brighter note. I'm gonna go ahead and hear and get my coffee. I need to drink some water I can feel dehydrated drink some more water Here I get that oxy coda and work child. I only did half of it because look, um That's the oxy from my breast reduction. I don't play around with those drugs y'all Just give me a little bit. Um, that's especially pain medication. I do not play around with which I just went a little bit Um, and that's probably the all I would take. Okay So let me go ahead and hear y'all with this baby up go take him to get some breakfast real quick. Um I think we got to move our two side tables out of our our bedroom Um, everything is good. So I'll show you what the carpet looks soon. Okay Oh Looks nice, huh Huh, uh-huh is your room. Oh, do you like your bed like this Jamie?
