 how are you guys doing? Yes, you read the title correctly. I'm going to attempt to wrap my hair and we're going to do a good old chit chat. So this is a flat iron. The video for this is coming soon. This is a good old nasty old flat iron. Got my gray hair. I'm getting so much gray hair. I seriously I'm going to pluck that out. I know I know you're not supposed to pull on but I am this is this is ridiculous. Look at that. Look at that. This is a chit chat. Y'all know how we do this. I talk about what's going on my personal life, what I'm watching on YouTube, which is not a lot and what I'm watching on TV. So yes, this is Hall. This is the flat iron and I probably will never get my hair professionally flat iron. I say that now. I just put and so we're going to attempt to wrap my hair and maintain it so it can maintain it because it's going to be raining. This weather in Texas want to talk about it. We're going to talk about it. So I have a Hercules comb that I got from one of my subscribers is literally it's called the Hercules. I got a bristle brush and I have some large bobby pins and then I bought this new wrap scarf because I can't find this is real big. Let's open this up. I can't find my regular scarf. I mean, I have tons of them, but you know how you got that one favorite scarf. So I got this from Walmart today. This better work. All right, to try and wrap this. Let's talk about what's going on my personal life. Okay, so those you don't know, we moved to Texas in January. Girl, what is this doing? We moved to Texas in January. Let me hydrate it and slowly but surely we're settling in. One of the things that I have made it a priority to do is to see my family, meaning my aunts and uncles who are getting up there because you guys, my mom was the youngest out of her family. My mama will be six. Well, she's 62. She's still young in my opinion and then my dad is 64. So there are sisters and brothers, my aunts and uncles are up there. You know, they're in their 70s or in their 80s. Well, like a lot of traditional Southern families, there's a lot of them that were year by year, but year by year. My grandparents were having kids every year. That's what you did back then, girl. You didn't have YouTube. So making sure that I see all of my family members before because tomorrow's not guaranteed, right? So I'm seeing like two to three family members per weekend. And I go every two weeks so far. And I have a big family, big family. Mom is the youngest of 15. Dad is the middle of 10. Multiply that by cousins. It's crazy. I've told you guys before, my grandmother on my mom's side, she was having kids with her kids. So I have cousins that are older than my mom. So it's funny to see that. But it's just a big family. And I would definitely be trying to attend some of that family gatherings, some of this stuff. I'm like, no, like they're having something in April where I'm like, no, I'm not, I'm not going. They're fishing. Yeah, I don't fish. Now I'm country. I know how to clean fish. Your girl knows how to clean and gut fish, which is disgusting. But I know how to do it. I actually do know how to catch fish, but I just don't like to do it. It's boring. Maybe I could go and drink something. Girl, no. So they're going to be camping and all that. No. I said, no, and I'm allergic to pine trees. They're going to be a lake of the pines, lake old pines, lake of the pines. I can't pronounce anything out in Longview, Texas. No, I'm not going to be able to do it. So I'm not doing that. But it's so good to see my family. What else? What else? What else? We're going to get into having a date night soon right now. It's family night, you know, since this is a new environment. And I will say it will be a good six months before I'm definitely settled in because there has been so many changes. Those of you who are not familiar, we have changed JB in different schools. My poor baby, you guys, we've been having issues with JB's behavior, which I think a lot of parents have noticed our children. And one thing that my husband was doing, let me close the door. JB went through with these crazy tantrums and my husband was like, oh, there's something wrong with him. You know, he's the only one acting like this. And I'm like, no, he's not. I talk to a lot more moms in your ass. And he's not the only one. So since he cannot hear me, what I did, the analytical part of me, what I did is I took a good three days and research the effects of the pandemic, specifically in other historical events and how that has an effect on not only childhood development, development, excuse me, but also behavior. I went, I went there. I created like an eight point slide presentation and presented to my husband the findings of my reasons. You're looking at me getting all, what do you call it, getting all corporate on y'all. But no, I had to, since he is that type of mindset too, I had to present with him like, no, he's not the only one, a large number of students or excuse me, of children or not only they are regressing, but they're also finding you guys that children even born during the pandemic or they're not developing as, as fast as other kids. You know, you see those little TikTok or Instagram, these pandemic kids are built differently. No, actually, on certain milestones, they are actually not at not advancing. They're not hitting their milestones like they should be. And that's just what the information I saw. What is another one I can tell y'all trigger, trigger the hospitals have noticed a 45, I think it's over 40% increase and self harm and suicides with children 18 and under when that is really, really sad. So I had to present this to my husband and show him children thrive on stability and predictability. That has gone off the door the past two years, right? And even so even, even so, even worse with Jebesa, JB our child, because so within two and a half years, JB has gone from charter school to home school, to private schools, no, no, no, no, to micro school, to public school, and not private school. That's five different types of schools within two and a half years and we moved three times. So yes, I think it's, I think it's a lot. I think now for me personally y'all, I'm doing a lot better for a while. Their anxiety was through the roof. I'm doing a lot better. I'm getting up early stretching. I'm sleeping. I'm drinking my water. I haven't gone on exercise yet, but if y'all could talk, I'm gonna put my hair up. I've lost weight. Look at that clavicle. It's not something I've done purposely. I have not been eating and I know that's bad. And so when I do eat, I don't want to eat because I've been so busy, but I'm going to get there. I worked on and I got myself a fourth means of income. I don't want to get into it a lot in detail, but I needed this because I have a goal. You guys, I can be a little hard on myself when it comes to, you know, self-help or whatever. So I think I briefly mentioned last year that my job had told me that I was up for a promotion. Well, that fell through. And when I tell you, I literally saw the email come through of the promotions and when was it? It was like like a week after we moved here. And I saw those emails when I tell you, I actually started crying. I started crying because not that my manager promised me it, but she said she, I'm not even going to get into that because you never know who's watching your video. But long story short, I for sure thought that the promotion was in the back for me. And so when that came through, didn't come through, I was devastated. What you have. So what can we do to make sure? Because look, I'm not struggling for money. We're not struggling for money, but I have a goal to pay off my debt within three years, two and a half years is what I want to do. Yeah, I'm growling my stomach. Excuse me. But if I could do it in two, three years, but if I could do it in two and a half years, even better, my credit score is slowly going up. It wasn't bad to begin with, but about what's in the news, not going to get a lot into it. Because let me tell you something. I do not, I do not dwell in the, in the, um, like the stuff that's going on with Kanye and Kim. No, I don't know. I don't even know what's going on. I know that she's dating already or they even legally divorced. See, I don't even know, but I am going to bring up the fact that Tracy Braxton, those of you who don't know, I think that's so sad. I didn't know she was sick. Let me back up. Tracy Braxton of the Braxton sisters passed away from, let me back up. Tracy Braxton from the Braxton sisters. Y'all know the Braxton's, um, Tony Braxton sister and Tamar Braxton sister and she was, was she a backup singer? I'm not sure, but unfortunately she has passed away of cancer at 50 years old. And I think that's so sad. I did not know she was sick. I had no idea what you, that is just devastating. You know, um, so prayers to her family. Um, besides that girl, we're not going to talk about this stuff going on in the Ukraine. I think it's, I think it's absolutely sad. We all know that when war comes, the only people that really, really, the civilians are the one that are going to suffer, but look, y'all, I was on somebody's channel, somebody, I'm looking, I'm sorry, I'm looking over there. I was on somebody's Instagram and they showed a video of a man who used to be a woman. He was trans, he had, was a transgender. And I'm going to say this right off the bat, whatever you want to do, baby, that's your life. But some of the stuff, y'all, I'm like, what? Now I'm used to seeing the man-to-woman transition. You know, I'm used to seeing that, but I'm not used to seeing, I, this is the first time I've really seen one like this, right? So he's showing his before pictures, looking like he used to be on the usherboard. And then all of a sudden he goes through, he's showing all the pictures of him of, you know, from taking the hormones. And he looks like a fifth member of three, six months. You're like, I shit you not. Let me tell you something. Gramps will be doing my hair. I will be, I'll be ready to beat somebody if I show up at a show place. You know, you taking me to Papa Dose. I'm getting a, you know, two fish, catfish with my red beans and rice. You give me a swamp thing. We go home to your place. And I'm thinking you, we bought the, you know, you got to lay it down and you got a pocket book. Like we got to smash pocket books. And so he had, he has like, when he has his breasts taken off, you can see like scars and you thinking, okay, maybe he went to Afghanistan, you know, maybe with those awards. Maybe he, you know, he possibly covered up with tattoos. You ain't looking where his titties used to be at. My husband said the food is here. I'm going to wrap it up y'all. This, this man looked like he was from Memphis and it looked like he saw weed on the side. But he also used to be on the usher board. I'm telling y'all. So y'all look, like I said, I have nothing against that. If you want to do that, baby, but just being honest, that's what pisses me off. Men are women when you'd be dishonest. And like I said, you taking me to Papa Dose and we going to hear your place. And I'm thinking you're going to sling it out and you got a pocket book like we both can't be making change. I'm just saying. All right, y'all, we're supposed to be doing my hair. So this time I'm going to, I'm going to try to wrap my hair. I'm going to comb this Ford and then girl and then what I'm going to do is wrap it this way. I'm looking like something from the grudge. Whoo, child. Now we can't do it. We just ain't gonna be able to do it. All right. Let me try to tell you what I'm watching. Girl, I have time. Snowfall, Franklin's ass. His mama is back. Oh, uh, what do you call it? Spoiler. Mama is back. Y'all know what? I'm a stickler for accents, right? So when she came back into the apartment, she said hello. I didn't notice an accent. I was like, uh, cut. So I rewind it a few times. I'm like, oh, your accent slipped. So I went back and looked at her, um, bio and she's English. I'm like, all right. I'm gonna put this here because she didn't go on to act right. Um, killing Eve. I posted on my community tab our favorite cycle path fashion. Villanella is crazy, that shit crazy. Y'all Villanella against spoiler alert on killing Eve. She I have AMC. That's how I'm watching it. She called herself wanting to get baptized, right? So that she can, you know, she can be good and see the Lord. She still got evil thoughts, right? Within the first few episodes, she killed the cat child accidentally, but still she's that shit crazy. Y'all. So watching that killing Eve, watch a movie. Y'all. How the hell I'm going to do this? I'm done. Look, I'm done. Watch a movie on Netflix. Jolt, Jolt's game. What the hell is going on? Oh my God. I can't talk. Hold on. Shit. Everybody. I can't nobody help me. Are these our split ends? What? So this is, this is not how my hair used to look like when I was relaxed. Is that why it's looking like that? Cause this looks a hot damn mess. You know, we're just going to wrap it up. Y'all, this is not good. This is not. Girl, looking at it ain't going to change a damn thing. Isn't there another way I could do this? Girl, I ain't no damn way out of the way. Okay. We're going to leave this, this is a style. We're going to leave this down for the rest of the video. All right. So on Netflix, I watched Jolt's game. You talk about, I loved it. I loved it. Psychological thriller based off of a Stephen King book pieces of her with Tony Collette and fine ass ghost from power. Let me tell you something. Why they got, I told y'all, like on the community, why they got ghosts playing like a 60 year old man? He's playing like the stepfather and the girl is 30 years. Come on, come on now. I like the series. It was a little slow like episodes three and four. I felt like they could, I'm like, come on. Cause the first episode came out and I was like, Ooh, let me, let me continue to wash this. Hold on. I gotta wrap in my hair. Just really was disrespectful. So it was good. A lot of surprises. I finished it over the weekend. Child, the thing about Pam with Renee, Renee's, oh, how she does her face like Renee's, I'm silly. Renee, Zilla, or whatever. Y'all this series, it's on piece notes. There's something about Pam is on Hulu and it's about a, it's based on a true crime and it's definitely giving me like Fargo vibes. There's the overall feel of it and it's based on a true crime incident in which a woman named Pam killed her supposedly best friend named Betsy for insurance money. Like some of the true crime YouTubers like Kendall have already done this, you know, done a story on it and this series is absolutely hilarious to me. I need to know what type of fat suit they got Renee in because when I'm telling you, I'm like, did you really gain 50 pounds? So that's a bum ass fat suit. Very believable. Coming soon, which I'm excited to watch is P Valley and Bridgette now. Y'all know I can't pronounce anything. The Duke ain't gonna be on it this season. I'm a bit salty by that, but it's coming and I'm ready. Y'all, we're gonna figure out how to, we're not going to wrap it. I tried. It's a lot of hair. Look, all of this is one person's hair. This is one person's head, head of hair. So how the hell are you going to wrap that? I'm going to go eat. All right, you guys, bye.
