 Hey you guys, can I get a witness or a tambourine? I wonder how much tambourine is cost on Amazon. Girl, get together. All right you guys, it's time for another chit chat and we get everything out of the way. And I'm a little bit perturbed because I had my notes down of what I was gonna talk about. I had it down like approximately, girl, approximately. I had it down like a couple of days ago and then I lost it like literally recently. So here we go. I'm gonna show y'all some things that I purchased. Baby, I've been spending a lot of money and this is just, it's too much. I've been overspending. I really have. So anyway you guys, for this chit chat video I'm gonna be setting my hair in twists. Now my hair is in mini twists. And sure enough, I was video chatting with my husband a couple of days ago. No, just yesterday. Cause we were just talking about what's gonna be gonna happen. And he's like, what's that stuff in your hair? Not talking about the twists, but I had the beads and my husband doesn't like the beads. He just doesn't. But he's in his fifties. He doesn't like the beads. So he's like, isn't that something for kids? First of all, I know you don't like the beads. I'm gonna take that down before my ass gets up there and see you. So don't comment about the beads. Okay. So one of the things I'm going to do is I'm still using this oil this is, look at that. My hair is growing. This is how long my hair is now. Okay. So I'm gonna add some to my scalp. I'm gonna add some to my hands to help to unravel the twists. So all right, y'all. How are you guys doing? Chow. Even though I've not, we've now been in back in Texas. This is our second year back in Texas. I haven't really shared a lot of the area we live in. Those of you who don't know, again, we live outside of Dallas and a small foreign land community called Forney. When I tell you this is foreign land, it's foreign land. So going to go pick up JB at his school and dropping him off at school. Ooh, y'all. Now, it has been a few days. Hold on. Shit. Hold on. All right, you guys. So anyway, what were you talking about? Anyway, so I've been here for like almost two years, going on two years, right? And so we are definitely in foreign land. Whenever we drive around, especially taking JB to school, which is the back roads, there's animals everywhere. That's mostly cow stuff, but there's cows, there's goats, there's donkeys, there's mules. Mules are basically donkeys and a horse breed. Basically, I think they are. There's milk cows, there's long horns, there's horses, all types of horses. And when I tell you guys, the scenery, especially there's certain areas in Texas, a lot of people, and I think I mentioned this before, a lot of people assume that Texas is flat. And that's mostly because if you're driving through, let's say you're driving through New Mexico, that area, Odessa, that Lubbock area is flat. That's Southwest. But when you come up towards the North Texas and especially East Texas, it's hilly, and it's very green and it's absolutely very beautiful. That's one part of the city where we go around through the back corner. And I told JB, I said, this reminds me of that scene from Funny Farm. Do y'all remember that movie Funny Farm with Chevy Chase and I Forgot the Other Woman, where they purchased this farm and it's basically turns out to be a limit and everything's falling apart, right? But it's very beautiful like that, especially when you can see the animals out in the open and it's just an absolute beautiful area. So even though I get very frustrated and I try not to talk about it because I don't want you to be positive, we are, and I have let other people here know and foreign events, we are, how should I put it? We are disappointed in this city for this simple fact that we, I'm not gonna get into detail, but we're just disappointed, either. And I speak to several people that have lived here and they speak to me too, too, child. So, especially the OGs, the old heads, the ones that moved here. I wanna talk to the people that moved here 12, 15 years ago. They're telling me, oh, we're leaving. This is not what we, this is not. And child, don't get them with a real conservative. They're like, all those people coming from California. I'm like, uh-uh, they're not coming from California. They're coming from Mesquite. They're coming from Dallas. They're coming from South Dallas. They're coming from, not necessarily the Carrollton area. What is that up there, Sherman? They're coming from those areas down to, but they are besides the people here which it could be some of the people. And it's getting like this everywhere. I know it is. I know it is for the simple fact that speaking to some of our friends that still live in Phoenix, they're telling us that that neighborhood is a hot mess now. And 12 years ago, that was the place to be it. Now, yeah, you still got houses in that area. They're going for half a million dollars. Girl, I say all of it to say I finally shared some footage of the area that we live in on Instagram and Facebook and people are like, oh my God, it's so green there. It looks so peaceful. Mostly on my Facebook page. I'm like, yeah, it's beautiful. All right, you guys. Look, I've already started taking down my hair. I have to pause for the calls to speak to my husband. I keep going back and forth from when, I'm gonna be going to Houston again, like I stated. But I'm trying to figure out when to go. He's stating if we leave around 10, we gonna get there to two because the traffic's gonna be crazy on Friday. So in order to get there before he leaves for work by one, we have to leave by seven because that downtown Houston area is no joke. Even without traffic, it takes me 45 minutes to get through all that, y'all. Anyway, so that's what's going on. The babies are taking testing at JB's school, like I was saying earlier, I'm sorry about that. I'm all over the place, I know. So JB was getting test and anxiety because my baby is the type of child he hangs onto the details. So before any of this started, like nearly two months ago, he said, mommy, they told me that this test is to determine where we're at. He's getting all nervous. He's like, mommy, they're testing us to see if we can move on to fourth grade next year. I said, baby, you'll be okay. But to help him to feel at ease, I spoke to his teachers ahead of time and asked them, what can I do to help him at home? And so we went through multiplication again and we went through and talked about some things. And the thing with JB is he gets so nervous and round up that he'll read something very fast and skip through it because he has dyslexia. And so he has to read something probably at least three times when I'm working with him and then I ask him if he understands, I'm not even going to base that off of the yes and no, I need him to explain to me what it means no matter how long it takes. So that was making me nervous too because I'm like, he's really not comprehending things. And if he does, there's still a delay. So I spoke to his teacher the week before last week. I raised my concerns and I'm like, you know, just to let you, JB's having some anxiety about testing. And so I guess she's spoken to the principal and they have agreed that JB and another child would be testing separately and they would be basically reading the questions and knowing what they're supposed to do with children that have learning challenges. That was his school. Again, I bought a corn chowder for the teachers, letting them know, I mean, I appreciate what they've been doing. And so they were sending me messages saying, it tastes so good. Thank you, God, I know it tastes good. I could cook hell. No, it's something I came up with, I came up with, I've been eating at Panera Bread and they have a summer corn chowder. When I tell you that thing, it's so good. And one time before I put it in the bread bowl, girl carved the hell out. So I was eating and I'm like, you know, I can make this at home. Let me save my $8. Actually, I can make this at home for $8 in the last meal whole week. So that's what I did. But I shared it with the kids. I'm with the teachers at his school. So that's what I was, y'all, let me tell you something. These taxes in Texas are no joke. No freaking joke. So we did good when we purchased our house and that we put down so much money that our mortgage, excuse me, is cheaper than some apartments. It just is, because that's how we, you know, what we were able to do. Well, those taxes, when I tell you, it was, how much was it? A little over $8,000. A little over $8,000. I am like, what is this? Absolutely crazy. That's going on. Oh yeah, y'all, that's the, let me show y'all some stuff I've been purchasing because it's a lot of stuff. Girl, it is a lot. All right, so I'm gonna have a little over 60 twists. And so let me put some of this up. Well, first up is, we're gonna do the beauty stuff first. So I went over to my best friend's house. I'd be going through her stuff. I mean, look, let me tell y'all something. We haven't been best friends for, gosh, going on 23 years. So she's like a sister to me. Now granted me, so we, you know, granted we are very careful. You know, it's not like I'm going through her panty drawer. No, but I, I stay back. And then she says, go ahead and come on. So, you know, we meet children in her bedroom. I was over her place as she had this bathroom body works open sky, when I tell you this stuff. So because I'm all over Amazon, I purchase vibes from Amazon. Why does it? Yeah, it smells good. It smells good. Okay, purchase that for my skin. I'm back on the skin. Like I said, this is what I look like up close. Getting better. But see, I got darkness over here, dark sports and definitely over here. You see that? That needs to, so I'm giving myself another month of skin regimen on there. Cause I've only been doing this for about a month and a half. So honestly, it takes a good three months for your skin to get to, in my opinion, to get to optimal health when you introduce some new products. And so I have a couple of things that are new and I will be having a full on updated skin regimen video coming up here soon. Now, y'all gonna find this funny. I call myself Perkinson, the stretchy bands. Let me show y'all and hold on, let me show y'all. Stretchy bands to try to, you know, work out my glutes and my legs and stuff. So, you know, on Amazon, when she was putting this on on her thighs, I was like, okay, come on Chelsea, you know. So this is what she's supposed to do, right? Now they were laying flat on her. Okay. So medium, wait a minute, that's the damn problem. I got a medium. Wait a minute, is this all medium? Yeah, my slow blood. I'm thinking that it's sizes, it's not sizes. It's the, how should I say it? How's the strength of the actual band? So we got light, medium and heavy. Okay, well, let me show you what the light look like. Okay. Ms. Jack O'Fox. All right, light. Now, see that's one, that's one leg, one big ass leg. Now let's, girl. Okay, so let's see what Abigail did, it hurts for flat. This right, girl. That ain't working, okay? This ain't working, the light ain't working. So let's move on to medium, okay. And again, it doesn't have to be perfectly flat, but I need for it to be, oh, hell no. That hasn't even started. Hey, medium, yeah. So when I do this, you see there? And then I can do this, girl. Now let's go to heavy. So clearly I'm a medium heavy type of woman. You already know. Yeah, the heaviest words there. Yeah, I think I love y'all so much. Girl, that's my second work out of the week. All right, so we got heavy and medium. Okay, I feel good, I feel good. So we got that, I showed y'all this already. Yeah, that light, Jamie can play with that. All right, so, girl books. I'm still purchasing books. I, y'all, this since January or this year alone, I've purchased a little over 20 books. Now ask me how many have I read. I will say that I've been so busy with work and life in general, I haven't read a lot, but I do take my book when I go pick up JB, a book when I go pick up JB, because I pick him up and I sit there for about 20 minutes and I read, okay? So let me show y'all some books. I think I already showed y'all this. Finley, Donovan Jumps the Gun. I have all her entire series. I really do enjoy this art there, okay? I'm a big fan of support, and I don't know if that's the right word, but of supporting local businesses. So there's a bookstore here and I've been wanting to go in there and so JB and I went in here. Absolutely adorable when I went in. Like one half of it had the old school children's school classroom poster boards and stuff. Great idol place for people who homeschool. I loved it. And then she had a little basket. As soon as I was walking out the door, she had a little basket that says $3 and $5. I say, these books are $3. She said, yeah. So I got some great, great, great pre-teen and adolescent books. Yeah, I'm a big fan of adolescent books. Look, and especially teen. I'm all Christopher Pike. Yeah, that's my favorite, R.L. Stein. Whatcha know about R? So anyway, y'all, I got the tiny mansion. JB said he wants to read this first. Santiago's Road Home. These are so cute. The monsters at Rokehaven. Absolutely adorable. Sometimes some monsters take us, sometimes we become the monsters. Interesting. Let me kind of look in there. I love it. And then the last one is called Maybe a Mermaid. Isn't this adorable? But I'm gonna finish my Finley Donovan book before I jump into these kids' books. Oh, and then because, you know, there's always a side to us that we don't want to tell people about, but we do have a part of us. Thug Mantramoni by Wahida Clark. Come on, Wahida, $3. Thug Mantramoni. And so, okay, because it was $3, but it started off real nasty. It's one of those. I'm like, let me see if I can find a part that I can read for y'all to a ratchet part. It's a lot of cursing and I don't like, I don't look, y'all, I curse, but I don't like to read novels that are graphic like this. So, here's chapter one. If the groom, I'm here for the bride. She's my woman. Can you tell her snake is here and he needs to talk to her? As if on cue, his boys came inside. There were five of them and every one of them were strapped. Snake, your Kenan's, your Kenan, her ex Trina Glaird in disbelief. He gave her this look that said, what the effing, you know what? Maybe I got, no, that's too much. All right, you guys, last thing I'm gonna show you, I got this cute little spring purse that I purchased through She-In, because I don't have a green purse. I don't. So I had, yeah, I think it's adorable. It's a little cheek though. This is a little smaller, I know, but it is. It's a little smaller than what I would like, but this is cute for date night and going to go do something real cute like, yeah. All right, you guys, what I'm watching on YouTube. Now, now, trigger warning disclaimer. I of course heard about that. I'm a curse a little bit more than what you guys are used to. I do apologize, but I can't hold it back. I saw that shit, the Dalai Lama. Let me tell you something. And I agree with what others have said. This is why you really cannot hold certain people to a higher standard. I really do feel that way. I'm not surprised by nothing now. There's nothing that really surprises me. Meaning that I'm not surprised by the actions of someone to do some bullshit like that, but as a parent, I'm surprised that a parent will allow that to happen that long. I couldn't watch all of the video. And matter of fact, I wanted to go through YouTube and I'm gonna put some up here you guys, I'm sorry. I wanted to go through YouTube and kind of flag all the videos that we're showing because technically in a way, isn't that child, isn't that, in a way, isn't that child pee? I don't wanna say the entire word. I don't wanna get flagged. But isn't that, or S.A., isn't that, how the hell is YouTube allowing those videos to, apparently apologize? No, absolutely disgusting. I'm still watching a bit of true crime. And what I'm really into now is cold cases. It amazes me how many people are actually aware of a crime and they don't come forward either due to fear or it's mostly fear. So I was looking at a shark that had came up and it was Beyonce's clothing line and it had an almost avant, how do you say it? Avant Guarn, like court contour, basically some stuff that nobody is saying wears, just you know, stylus and stuff they would wear at the, excuse me, celebrities would wear it like the Met Gala. But before I could even, I don't know y'all. First of all, let me just say this. I'm not wanting to jump on the bandwagon up. Oh, that's the money, that's the money, that's the money. I think she's a witch, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But there are something, I'm just being honest. And so, or there's some things that people do in this industry in Hollywood and we just talked about this, that's very dark and demonic, absolutely. There's no denying it. And it's getting to a place, in my opinion, whether you believe it or not, it's getting to a point to where they are throwing it in our face. Like there's no denying it. They are throwing it all the way out in your face. So, I saw like a few seconds of this line, which is almost, I guess, it's a visual representation of her album. It was very dark, y'all. To me, it made me feel a bit uncomfortable. It was dark, I mean, it was, I don't know. So, girl, moving on. Why I'm watching on TV, Netflix. I got Amazon Prime for seven days. Why I'm watching y'all? So, I'm watching a lot of stuff, actually. And this particular time around, I started to watch a lot more movies. And so, I watch them. At first, I didn't wanna do it because them, in my opinion, is trauma porn, porn. It's basically about a black family that decides to move into Compton when Compton was up on rising and was primarily white. And that's how it is in a lot of areas that are now predominantly black. They initially started off as being working class, working middle class, white people. But as black people, working class, black people started to move into those neighborhoods, the white people were like, oh, hell no, we gotta go. So, they ended up leaving those neighborhoods. So, this goes on that to where this is a black family that moves into a predominantly white neighborhood. And when I tell you the woman that plays the mother, she is absolute, to me, she is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen. I love her skin tone. She has a nice shape. When she is chocolate, she is absolutely breathtaking, beautiful. So, them is one of those type of series to where there were certain episodes that were really good and other parts were like, what in the hell is going on? This doesn't make any sense. I say watch it again, Amazon, Amazon Prime. And so, while I'm on Amazon Prime, I decided to watch a bunch of old stuff that I've seen a thousand times. Like, out of time, with Denzel watching this fine ass and obsessed with Beyoncé. Yeah, the reason why I like obsessed primarily is cause that crazy ass chick, Y'all, when she got, first of all, when she showed up to just walk into his car, open up the door and sit down. And she's talking to him and all of a sudden, she's like, showing him. And that outfit, if y'all notice, the lingerie set she has on, well, you don't probably don't notice. If you remember, if you don't, I'm gonna remind you ass. The lingerie outfit she had on is black, but then it has like pink patches over certain parts of her breast and a pink patch over her pocketbook, over her cloutiquette. Well, it's not cloutiquette for her. Watch out of time. Oh, another one that was really good is I see you with Helen Hunt. I haven't seen Helen Hunt in a long time. She's older, but it's called I See You. And you would think that it's like, at first, it's suspenseful. And it still is a suspenseful thriller and you think it's gonna be scary. It is kinda scary, but it's not what you think. And I believe that's on Amazon Prime too, but when I see it at, it's either Netflix or Hulu, you guys. I do apologize, but it's called I See You. Really good. Well, not really good, but it's good. I wasn't expecting it. Something I want to watch, but I'm not in the mood to be paying for all these things. Let me tell you something. I'm sick of getting something and it says try it out for seven days. How about I try it out for 15 days? Stars Paramount Plus. I'm sick of this. Cause it's all starts there. Cause right now I got, I got Hulu, I got Sling, I got Netflix. Sling decided to up their prices. Netflix decided to up their prices. I think I got something, I was this close to getting Hulu with Paramount Plus for another $8 or $9. I'm not doing that. Y'all not gonna trap me because I want to see yellow jackets. I really want to see this series, you guys. It has, what is her name? First of all, it has Christina Ricci and it has the other actress. When she was younger, she played a national impugn Christian of Christmas vacation. No, she was the daughter. What is her name? I forget her name. I love her about it. There was a movie I saw called Nope on Amazon Prime and it has Old Boy from Wakanda. He was the one that, yeah, I know, I should know people name. I'm gonna be putting the names below. Nope, he's with his sister and they are farmers and his father, the good voice actress, the voice actor, he played the cat. He also played the, look, I told you, I know who these people, I know who they play in. And Princess and the Frog. Yeah, I know what I'm talking about. I'm gonna put his name down below too. So he played as the father, but this is one that's done by Mr. Pill. And when you're first watching it, you think, oh my God, this is gonna be scary when it's about, this is about alien, this is about UFOs. Again, it is not what you think. It's one of those that has different layers. I will probably watch it again because I would just so entertain. Hold on, y'all. I forgot to add the serum. I'm gonna watch it again because I was so entertained by it. And not only am I gonna do this, I'm gonna do these up front. No, I was gonna do them smaller, but I'm not, didn't enjoy it. But the most disturbing thing, the most disturbing scene. Oh, and then it had Glenn from Walking Dead, the Asian God, Glenn. The most disturbing scene, y'all. Are you gonna agree with me if you've seen the movie? That damn chimpanzee scene. Let me tell you something. You cannot have monkeys as friends. I'm sorry, but you, you need to get some real friends, but very similar, this was very similar to the incident with Travis, that chimpanzee that ended up ripping the face off that woman. And those of you who don't know, because I have a disturbing side to me, part of that woman in the passing a few years ago, the woman who had her face ripped off by the chimpanzee, Travis. Not only that, but the owner also passed away of the, that entire, this just shows you how traumatic things in your life can have a huge effect on you, your mental wellness and your health. And that can honestly affect your immune system. Her family, meaning the woman that owned Travis was riddled with deaths. Because if I remember correctly, when she was married, because she was married, her daughter, she had a daughter at one point, unfortunately died in the car accident. That's when her and her husband decided to get this chimpanzee named Travis. Travis walking around with, but then listen to shit like he's on, you know, never in, island. You ain't, you ain't Michael Jackson. And this ain't, this ain't Bubbles. This is freaking Travis. Travis is a big ass boy. Y'all, I messed up. See, that's why I get for talking. So anyway, the father ended up passing away. So then she's left with Travis and herself on this property. But every now and then she has visitors and they all know about Travis. But Travis is also on some psych meds. So he had a little incident, girl not even a little incident, where he acted out and the only person he could get to was the owner's friend. And he literally tore her face off. So y'all, y'all anyway, back to note, there's a scene that's very similar to that. You don't see it, but what makes it, you don't visually see it. You have to imagine it. But that's what makes it so disturbing. Cause you can see what he's doing. You can see it was a little girl, he was doing it too to make it even more sad. You can see the little girl feet moving around and screaming and then you can hear him going to attack another person. Child, I was like, this is the most disturbing thing I've seen in a long time. Snowfall, by now, y'all should have seen it's a couple of episodes. If not disclaimer, spoiler, I'm going to say some stuff. I knew that somebody was going to die. And I told y'all, I felt like it was going to be either Franklin or his fiancee or Hector. I know his name is Hector. The mama, Jerome, Jerome's wife. And it turns out to be Jerome. Y'all, when I tell you, I got a little choked up at that. I'm like, okay, Vivian, this is a damn show. This is not real. But you knew what was happening. We all could feel something was going to happen. Now I'm all caught up and I just don't think how, I just don't know how things are going to end out so great for Franklin. I feel like he is, he's gotten to a point to where he's so greedy. He doesn't care about anything but himself. Oh, he cares about his fiancee to a certain degree. But I think if he really cared about her, he wouldn't put her in certain situations. Like, he killed that man's daddy in front of her. She's pregnant. She can't be witnessing stuff like that. That's traumatic to her. For her. That's in front of her and her mama. Chill. I'm like, Franklin baby, you need to call somebody. This is too much. All right, you guys, what else, what else, what else? I watched another movie that I love with Blake Lively and Anna something, a simple favor. I like Blake Lively. That's it, y'all. I'm all over the place. My job is very busy so I need to go ahead and answer some emails here. Dennis, thank you so much for watching and thank you as always to all, girl, what the hell? So thank you so much for watching and thank you as always to all of my subscribers. Take care, bye.
