Guess who pulls up and you know when you feel like somebody is staring at you. They are it was Shiloh oh yeah, it was your husband and Rowan and they're on their way to the arcade and he had his um rolled down his window and he had his RC ranch hat on you guys. Rc ranch Um, if you guys have heard of.

Speaker 2:No, and I I said, bend your head down so I can kind of get a picture of you and so I could send it to the guys that own RC Ranch. And it was just a shit photo, so we'll have to redo it, but I did want you guys to know RC Ranch great guys, great company. And it was too cute to see him repping that, so it was super cool.
Speaker 1:He rocks that Foykett hat pretty regularly. He said somebody tried to touch my hat at summer camp. I told him this is very expensive.
Speaker 2:Yeah, this is my Aunt Gypsy's. There you go Before you get customs, if you guys need some custom stuff that's before you get customs. That's the kids gig and they're rocking it.
Speaker 1:That's free advertisement, because he's repping that shit all the time. I love it. I love it. That makes my heart happy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so summertime is here, but I feel like, because we haven't been able to hang out on the porch, that we should talk about some dirt. Let's talk about. Oh, we like talking about dirt. I know, okay, you got a new dart. Well, I don't know if it's new or old or whatever, but and I um, you know, you, your social media platforms, your, there's so many of them. Obviously, you've got your facebook, your instas, your threads, your, and we're old so they got more shit than we even know about chats and all the things and what have you?
Speaker 2:but um, and I mean I'm I'm trying to figure it all out and but whatever. But I guess you can set your um and you know, and I'm sure after we get done hanging out on the porch today, that we're going to have all kinds of shit that's going to pop up on your whatever. But I have a lot of inspirational things that show up on mine because I love them, and then you and I will chime in and get on some really cool Yep Good vibes, some things that really hit home, some funny things, some serious things.
Speaker 1:I say like half of adult relationships are just sending each other memes and things that mean things to you quotable quotes, right?
Speaker 2:Well, I was watching a deal that came across one of my feeds and it was talking about how today's relationships are so different than they used to be. So and I'm watching this guy and he's standing in the kitchen and he's got a dad shirt on and he's cooking breakfast, and and it was talking about how today's relationships are so different. And he gets a text and he responds to the text and it was like hey, what are you doing? And he was like cooking breakfast, and then he sets it down and he's trying to cook his breakfast and then bloop, and then comes the text, and then he does this and then bloop, and here comes the. And I'm thinking, holy shit, we just don't ever really put it down.
Speaker 2:Put it down and sit down and date yourselves, and in a marriage and there are so many things that that I research and and you know me, we all know I've told y'all. If I've told y'all once, I've told you twice I am in love with therapy. I am, I love my therapist and I w I've been in therapy since I was a kid and I can promise you I'll be to it, to the. The porch is my therapy. There's a million different ways that you can get it out. Get it out, I mean, get whatever. Answer your questions. I mean, how many times do I take things to you and go? Kel, please, for the love of God, take a look at this and tell me am I losing my shit? Am I losing my mind?
Speaker 2:Am I being the freaking cuckoo for coconut here.
Speaker 1:Am I the bad one here? Right, am I being attacked?
Speaker 2:Can you look at this and just tell me look, no, tiffany, you're being a complete ass hat yeah. And I would tell you, and, yes, and that's I appreciate your honesty, which is why I go to you for so many things, which is how we've had our porch for ever and ever and ever, which is what not instigated but what helped us bring the porch to fruition and inspiration.
Speaker 2:Yes, and here we are and just to share our things and and funniness. And today may not be a funny episode, Today may be a a real episode, but I really do want to. I really do want to ask you some questions on boundaries. So in today's world, yes, things are different. You have your cell phone and you have everything is right there at your fingertips, which is bullshit. Your fingertips should be hugging your person, hugging your human, Cooking breakfast Right. Going back to dating your human, dating your person. You can send a text all day long and say I love you. You can also send a text and say fuck you. You can send a text and say a lot of things. You can send pictures, you can send nudes. You can send what is now called sexting, I mean we're so old.
Speaker 2:I know we're like wait, they're just gonna put it right out there. They're just gonna like send, wait, they're just going to put it right out there they're just going to like send it?
Speaker 1:Oh no, they're just going to send it. You leave nothing to the imagination. You know I mean. So, do you think?
Speaker 2:Look, I want to talk about cheating, all right, so you've got baggage, I've got baggage. That's just one thing. Yes, it's a very sensitive subject and, yeah, a lot of people don't want to talk about it, but it's fucking here and it's fucking real and it happens on every single corner and there are boundaries and I believe that boundaries should be firm and should be.
Speaker 1:Discussed yes. Identified yes. Youified yes. You can't keep sweeping it under the rug.
Speaker 2:And, in my mind, if you are texting other women, or if you're texting other men and being Inviting being, uh, inviting, inviting. If you're misleading, if you are sending them pictures of yourself in whatever, I don't give a flying fuck If it's a picture of your chin hair, if this is not your best friend or your spa or your laser technician and you're asking them do you think this is appropriate or inappropriate or whatever? If you have to question it, probably no. It's probably inappropriate. That's my opinion on that. What do you consider?
Speaker 1:No, I agree. I mean I feel like I don't know. I trust my husband enough. I don't feel the need to go through any of his shit, but he's never given me a reason to not trust him and this is a.
Speaker 2:This is very interesting because you guys are in a. You have a beautiful marriage. Y'all are both very, very, very good friends of mine. I mean, we do everything and anything together. We're together all the time. Um, I have been at. So, if you guys have not, if y'all don't know and if you've not followed us, kel and her husband own a bar here in New Braunfels, um, the Blackwell pub. It's on the square, it's amazing, best rated margaritas in tech. I mean. Anyways, yeah, it's a, it's a full on thing. But that takes a relationship level, a trust level, to a whole, nother level, because you are a nurse, math teachers, what we call her.
Speaker 2:So don't tell her she doesn't like to save lives on her day off. But you, it's y'all, y'all have split, split shifts. Your relationship is very much a tag team relationship. It is you guys have to pass the baton because you work 12 hour shifts. He's working the mid, the late to the midnight so we in the morning he's maintaining the riffraff, the bar life, the drunks, the women that oh he's, oh you don, oh, you're the owner. He owns a bar and I, I.
Speaker 1:I never see his wife here.
Speaker 2:Right, she got the damn kids Right. So y'all have, and y'all do have littles and you do have. You have a very respectful relationship and you have a very trustworthy and honest relationship. That's very hard to come by in the bar scene in a small town, in a community that we live in, so so he's at the bar all the time, but how do y'all make that work?
Speaker 1:I, I just want? He always asks me not to talk about him on the podcast, but I want to say that I think just call him george okay, my husband george, yes um, I found this facility and, yeah, we're going to talk about you.
Speaker 2:It's my porch.
Speaker 1:He's like you want, george Georgio. I think, because we were friends first, that we have a different level of respect for each other. Like I feel like when people go into relationships and they automatically just lust after each other, you kind of lose sight of yes, I love this person, but do I actually like them Right? Do I see how they treat other people? Do I see how they are in sticky situations when things are not good, and they're not just trying to impress me? So people always ask me you know, how do you guys get along so well? And I'm like, if we have a problem, we just talk about it Right Straight away. You might not like what I want to hear and I might go to bed after this, but we got to get it out. I don't sit well with things. My face says it all, my body language, like I'm just going to come right out and say it.
Speaker 2:Or you're going to poke him with a fork.
Speaker 1:Or I mean, it's here too. He just doesn't push me to that point ever. He never wants to upset me on purpose. He you know which, and I feel the same about him.
Speaker 2:I don't try to get him fired up. Y'all don't enjoy pissing each other off, no, but just yeah.
Speaker 1:I've had a lot of years in my life where Most people don't, but then Some people do Some people do.
Speaker 2:Some people do, and I think it takes a special person to know when to back the fuck up and go. You know what? Maybe I need to go to my corner and maybe she needs to go to her corner. Let's regroup, or he, she or whatever it is.
Speaker 2:Time out and let's take a time out, let's take a deep breath. Let's revisit this in a little bit. Let's revisit this in a little bit. But I am very disconcerned with boundaries and respect issues and how the world today and relationships and how some people just don't think that that is being disrespectful. When you are texting other women, when you're messaging other women, when you're putting fake bullshit out on your socials and what have you, it's not that you're walking into a room like it used to be and Taking home women with you?
Speaker 2:necessarily no no, you don't even have to do that Now. You can mislead someone by photoshopping your picture, mean you've seen catfish and it's a full-on thing, and I'm not talking. What you when you put the bubble gun on a piece of string no stick it in the freaking land of park and you pull up a damn.
Speaker 1:No, it's a whole thing, and people you know have these imaginary relationships and and things with people that they've never even met, and it's like you're, you're allowing this to take over, you're allowing that to stroke your ego, because that's what they're doing right, because they're not getting whatever they want at home or from you know their significant others, so they're reaching out without actually reaching out. Um, still, that's a no.
Speaker 2:I just think it's a hard. No, I think it's disrespectful, I think it is um, it's very hurtful. It takes your trust, and how do you get it back?
Speaker 1:I don't know. I, my husband and I always say like once you resent someone that never goes away. You could say you did this to me and you said you were sorry, but it's still there, it's still in the back of your mind. You're never going to completely trust them, or you know it's. But.
Speaker 2:Well, it makes it so difficult in today's world because we have cell phones in our face 24, seven, and so when that betrayal happens via a text or a, however, every time you look at that person and they have their phone in their face you always wonder what are you doing? Who are you doing? What are you saying? Why are you saying that?
Speaker 1:And if you don't have the comfortability to discuss that with someone on a reasonable level, like I'm just concerned because we're trying to have a conversation and hear you on your phone, is that more important than what we're talking about? Right, because clearly that lets me know how you really feel. I think it's just so accessible these days where back in the day, you know you actually had to like go out and meet someone, right, or you know, know somebody.
Speaker 2:Get back in the day, you know you actually had to like go out and meet someone or you know, know somebody. Get caught at the hotel room Yep. Get caught in the car making out the back seat Right, finding up the windows Mm-hmm, get the. Yeah, oh, I saw you at. Yep. Whoever's coming out of the front porch or you don't have to do and texting and sending verbatim whatever. I don't care how you skin the fucking cat. There's so many people that think, well, just because you didn't touch that person, that doesn't mean it's fine. It does not make in my mind, in my rule book, that does not make it okay at all. No, and then I mean, I don't know how, to the different platforms that I was saying, how I got different things and inspirational stuff that comes across my feed. There's several that I have read coming from men that say it is not okay. It is not okay Just because you did not sleep with this person.
Speaker 1:Doesn't mean it's fine.
Speaker 2:Does not mean that you are not being unfaithful, that you are not cheating on this person. I think it's just a full on. I mean I could sit here on our porch and I could just shred this to pieces and just try to no-transcript. It's called liar scum. Let me. This is yes, and you know we're trying to do a word for our gypsy nary, and today's word is liar scum, and the definition is it's a liar in a scum bag, and so, if it on my thing, it says a perfect combination of two traits that make any normal person want to puke. When you put the two together, that's liar.
Speaker 2:So as if one of those traits wasn't bad enough, let's put the two together, the same person, and you have a liar scum that's sitting at a bar stool monday through sunday, stroking his ego, texting, texting women or whoever whatever, just waiting for the next lick of his wounds, that's not what I thought you were going to say. Well, I damn sure wasn't going to say his balls. That's a whole different episode.
Speaker 1:Kel, it's a whole different episode. Wait for it Ball licking. Yeah, we'll come back to that.
Speaker 2:Wait for it. Ball licking yeah, we'll come back to that. We'll get back to that one. We'll get back to that one because I mean, we have balls, we just wear them on our chest and we like our balls licked too just as much as the next guy. So, anyways.
Speaker 1:You're not wrong, but I'm just saying I. I think that goes to, I mean, the way people feel about themselves, whether or not they need to be, you know, have reaffirmation of like tell me I'm pretty, or tell me I'm awesome.
Speaker 2:We all need those hugs.
Speaker 1:We all need that love. Yeah, well, hugs are different, right?
Speaker 2:But we all need a stroke of our ego from time to time. I mean my gosh, but are you getting that? From your friends or your loved ones or strangers. Right it goes back to this is the grass greener on the other side?
Speaker 1:And most people will tell you that's a septic tank.
Speaker 2:It is, it is. That's why it looks like that, because if you do the research, and you guys know and this is a great example you guys know, and this is a great example, and this is absolutely freaking hilarious, so y'all know, if you well, you don't know, because the episode airs this week. Steve Trevino was on my porch last week and so we aired out right, that was a good time.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh, we could have talked for a day. I mean, Steve and I have known each other for a very long time. So if you guys are not following Steve Trevino, capital E kept, captain evil you're missing out their podcast.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you're absolutely missing out and do that, follow it. Watch his Netflix special Simple man just came out Good time. But so Steve does this huge Easter event every year at their house and it is so much fun. They have a big barn in the backyard we had Fiona at the deal, hundreds of people, big Easter egg hunt. Well, behind his house he's got. His house is fenced in right, and then behind his house he's got a sprinkler system set up or whatever. Well, they're out in the country and he's got whatever his acreage is not my business to tell, it's around 12. Ish, the back 12. Give or take. Yeah, it's like the back nine, but it's a back 12. But, oh my gosh, this has happened the last couple years. His sprinkler system will automatically go off. And guess what is going off on the back 12? Do you want to know why the grass is greener on the back 12 versus the front? Why is that? Because it's the poo-poos, it's the sewer.
Speaker 2:It's the sewage that is going through and that's why that grass is so green on the other side. So yeah, if you want to get yourself in a situation there, it is yeah, but during the Easter egg hunt it has never failed. Failed and why he forgets to shut the timer off. But the freaking, shitty ass sprinklers will go off and you want to talk about some rotten eggs.
Speaker 2:It's green, but you don't want to go over there. Don Don't get the one with the brown specks on it. Don't do it. That's not an ostrich egg. That's not the peacock egg. Nobody purposely decorated that one of the speckles. That's the poopoo egg.
Speaker 1:You got the poopy egg, but that's what's going to happen, so you try to go over to that green side.
Speaker 2:You're going to get the poopy egg. Stay off of the green grass, back off of it. It is not yours to step on. It's not yours. I mean, if you want to taste it, go ahead, but you're going to get a shitty taste in your mouth Some E coli, yes, poison, yeah, I'm telling you, but I mean, that is a fact, though I mean.
Speaker 1:Think about how that whole circle just went around. Everything sounds so great and glamorous compared to what you're in, and then it's like that was not a good choice.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Hindsight, you probably should have talked to your therapist about that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, or your friend or your significant other. Here's a hell of an idea Like sit down and go. Hey, you know what? I'm feeling neglected. I'm feeling that you're not giving me the attention that I need. I am feeling like we need to have a date night. Yeah, I'm feeling like maybe we should put the phones down, let's ignore the businesses and let's go for a weekend deal, let's have a staycation. Those are full on things. Those are things that you can reinvent yourself. Yeah, come back around Real quick and real fast.
Speaker 1:Get back on the same page, don't Reconnect. Yes, don't look for extra connections. That's not the answer. If you can't make this one work with someone you already know, you love.
Speaker 2:How the blue fuck do you think that you're going to do it with somebody?
Speaker 1:else A stranger that looks good online. Come on now Watch Catfish. Come on Y'all seen nine a day fiancee. You never even met them and you send them all the money and you look okay, we'll see how that works out.
Speaker 2:I don't know how people do that I don't either.
Speaker 1:I mean, I watch it for sheer trash entertainment.
Speaker 2:But you and the kids have got me hooked on that. Okay, yeah, keeping me young I'm telling you. Well, and then the kids were like well, what episode are you on? And I'm like I don't know.
Speaker 1:I'm caught up.
Speaker 2:Oh, skip that one, just go to season six. And so what do I do? Whip, yeah, jump on, because that's a good one too. Okay, yeah, but it is.
Speaker 1:I feel like you know people's going to determine your happiness. So if you don't have a partner that is willing to listen and willing to hear you out, then it's probably going to be shitty for you. Shit-uation, it's a whole shit-uation.
Speaker 2:So choose your partner carefully, even the first, second, third, fourth fifth, whatever is counting, I mean, it's life's too short to be married to an asshole, that is we've talked about it once We've talked about it twice. We're going to talk about it again. Life is too short to be married to an asshole.
Speaker 2:Life is too short to have shitty friends. Life is too short period. We don't know if we're going to be here today, we don't know if we're going to be here tomorrow, but we need to laugh and we need to smile and we need to enjoy our loved ones and we need to and this is hard for me and this is this is something that I could use to forgive and forget. Okay, that's a big broad statement Forgive and forget. Well, is it easy to forgive? It's easier to broad statement Forgive and forget. Well, is it easy to forgive?
Speaker 1:It's easier to forgive than forget. I would say I forgive you for what you've done, but it's still there, Like I could not ever let it go.
Speaker 2:But even forgiveness is hard, it you know I come from. I mean German, whatever.
Speaker 1:We don't talk about our feelings.
Speaker 2:We don't talk about nothing, no, we just. You're fucking fine, fuck you Fuck you, I'm going to throw a dish at you, I'm going to throw a wine glass, and then I'll see you at dinner tomorrow, yep. And then yeah, exactly, and, and, and they, they nobody apologized ever, nobody, ever. Nobody even knows what an I'm sorry is.
Speaker 1:yeah, so to to figure that out on your own is a whole it's a whole thing and what you will allow and what you'll tolerate, right and how long you allow it and how long you tolerate it. Is this how it's going to be, or am I going to change it?
Speaker 2:I just don't know that, and if anybody has any advice, please feel free to comment like share or whatever. And everybody chime into this, because it's very hard for me to set timelines and boundaries on. How long do you let stupid shit go on? How long are you, the doormat? How long are you? And?
Speaker 1:nobodyat. How long are you? And nobody really has the answer for that.
Speaker 2:I mean, I think it's, I don't think so either, and I think it's all an individual basis it is. You know, I go back and I think about relationships with my ex and yeah, I mean I got my feelings hurt and I'm sure I hurt his feelings. And I know nothing is perfect and it's never going to be and I don't expect it to be. But I do co-parenting as a whole thing and I love that we can co-parent, but it takes a long time to get over the hurt.
Speaker 2:The anger it really does and does it get easier with age? I don't know.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I don't know, I mean, but it's something you either let it consume you or you deal with it and move on, or you choose not to. You can't just not deal with it. I mean it's gonna, it's gonna show its ugly head.
Speaker 2:But that's a. I have gotten up to a point in my life where I and I mean you've seen me fly off at, I've seen you throw a fork we all know it does happen and you've seen you throw a fork.
Speaker 1:We all know it does happen.
Speaker 2:I tell everyone and you've seen me fly off, whether it's at the river, with people that are disrespecting my things or whatever it may be, or it just happens, or even with, like Nick, and the businesses and my staff and the kids, and I will say, look, I am not in a good place right now. I need, I need to regroup, I need to go sit in the corner, I need to go think about my choices, I need to reset my mind.
Speaker 1:But it's taken you this long to you know, get to know yourself and what is appropriate for you.
Speaker 2:And to know that I'm not in a good like I'm not. I'm not good for anyone and I'm going figure this out, but I need to do this for myself. But I'm not gonna let it last for months and weeks and go on and go on. I need to do my reset, which I mean. That's how many times? If I here, we go several kale. This is not a texting conversation. I need you to get your pods in, get them out, get them in, don't be hanging up on me.
Speaker 2:I know you're going to hang up on me 12 times, but I need to talk to you. I need to talk to you. I need you to help me reset my mind. I need you to help me think this out.
Speaker 1:I need you to help me just get it out so it doesn't drive you crazy, because it will drive you crazy. It will, it will absolutely drive you crazy. It will consume you, right, and you know, just to have somebody to bounce it off of. That's, you know, not judging you. Or, you know, just wants to give you their honest opinion. That's what friends are for, you know. It's like I'm not saying I'm perfect, I'm not saying my relationship is perfect, no, but we deal with each other in a healthy way.
Speaker 1:If your each other in a healthy way, if your relationship is perfect. Y'all are lying to yourselves. Question everything. I mean seriously. There's no such thing as perfect. I mean it's it's. Do you respect me? Do I respect you? Do we deal each other, you know, in a loving way? And you could have not have done that and that upset me when you did that, and then I'm sorry that I made you feel that way, you know it's not just like well right, fuck off.
Speaker 1:Yeah, take it or leave it right. I'm probably gonna leave it.
Speaker 1:I shoulda, woulda, coulda, yeah yeah hindsight, you know I have been in situations like that where I was lied to and you know, looking back now I'm like oh so you were at the strip club all the time, right, so that was my money you were spending. Oh so it's all lies. So now I'm late for work because you're at the strip club and you know things like that, and it's like I never saw any of that coming. Because I don't live like that. I don't think like how can I, yeah, deceive you? What can?
Speaker 2:I get away with.
Speaker 1:Like I'm just trying to get by right, trying to keep my kids in line, trying to keep from losing my shit. Right, snapping on some lady trying to write a check in front of me.
Speaker 2:You want to stay focused on the positive. Yes, yeah, press on yes.
Speaker 1:Get up, have a great day.
Speaker 2:Fortunately, nobody wants to be slapped with a bowl of shit oatmeal.
Speaker 1:No, no. I always say I'm not crazy Splashed with brown sugar. But don't back me into a corner and poke me. You don't want to see that. No, so you know, have people that treat you with respect or it probably will end badly.
Speaker 2:I have heard multiple times and this really hits home with me is that you cannot change what you don't acknowledge, and that is Sweeping under the rug. That is a Dr Phil deal. You guys and y'all can say whatever you want that man has got he's on to something. I've read his books and you know me, I don't read.
Speaker 1:Not for fun. Not for fun in any way.
Speaker 2:No, not doing it, but I tell you what Brene Brown is.
Speaker 1:Another one, holy goodness, I have Well invest in yourself If it can help and it really really does and it does help and it does.
Speaker 2:But it goes back to that If you cannot change what you don't acknowledge, if you do not acknowledge that, you need to go put yourself in a corner in timeout and think about what your choices are and what you have just done. Then what are?
Speaker 1:you doing? What are you doing? If you cannot tell people what is expected of them, how can they know? Just like a child.
Speaker 2:It is. I will not allow this.
Speaker 1:If you cannot respect yourself, how can they know just like a child it is? I will not allow this. Respect yourself. How can you expect others to respect you? You can't. Doesn't work that way, no, and it will be exhausting. So please speak up, say what's bothering you, and then hopefully your partner will respond appropriately. Because if they don't, then that, you know, helps you decide what your next move is right. Either they care enough to change it, or they're like or they don't. Period. That, you know, helps you decide what your next move is right. Either they care enough to change it, or they're like or they don't. Period. And then you got some more choices to make, right?
Speaker 2:and it's never easy nobody's divorce is easy.
Speaker 1:And if they say, oh, we're gonna be friends, no separation is easy.
Speaker 2:No, divorce is easy, no relationship is. Nothing in this world is easy, period. It's what you put in and what you take out of it. Amen, but I don't know. It's just been bothering me a lot lately and I've missed you and we haven't had any. I know, I know we have a lot of fun stuff that we have to talk about and we're going to tell a lot of jokes and do all the fun stuff, but I just really feel like the things that have been coming across my feet and the things that have been presented to me it's been river season and of course I you know I worked the bar down there and of course. So then I turn into the bar, therapist and and have all kinds of conversations and, um, just people all around me, and I just feel like there's just like I like what?
Speaker 1:I just wanted to get your.
Speaker 2:yeah, I mean, I, I go to you for so much, and there's just so. There's, there's a timing, I think that's one.
Speaker 1:that's that's where I'm at, and and is how much is too much, how much is too?
Speaker 2:much, and how long do you keep letting it? Go and how do you know when?
Speaker 1:it's enough.
Speaker 2:How do you know when it's enough? How long do you keep letting it go? When do you take your power back? My therapist told me that last week and we were just discussing things in general, as we always do, and she said, tiffany, you need to take your power back. You're you're losing yourself, you're losing who you are, and it's you know she's right.
Speaker 1:We've talked about this several times.
Speaker 2:I mean because I because I feel like I am and it wasn't. It's not in anything, any one thing in particular.
Speaker 1:It's in creativity or in my, the business side, or it's hard to enjoy any of those good thoughts when it's consumed. I'm spinning.
Speaker 2:I'm literally like a spin cycle in a whirlpool top loader and then reverse yeah yes, and just spinning, spinning, spinning and I'm like why?
Speaker 1:and trying to manage, yes, all these things right. I mean you're spread very thin. I mean, even in an ideal situation, there's not much time for sit still or regroup or right or sleep. Then there's that um, any of those things. But I think it's completely necessary for you to sleep to. You know, talk about the things like you said, like you talk with your therapist, like you have to get it out and hear other people's, you know opinions and and take it how you want, take whatever you can.
Speaker 2:You can take it with a grain of salt. You can take it with a grain of sugar.
Speaker 2:You can take a grain of fucking red pepper flakes if you want to people have you know some of them are going to hurt some, some things are going to, but that's, that's life, and I don't think that you can. Um, sensitivity yes is a is a thing, and sensitivity yes Is a is a thing. And there's a time where you can be super sensitive, or you can take things a little too personal, or you can say you know what that kind of hurt my feelings, a little bit that, like that, that one stung.
Speaker 1:I didn't like the way you said that one stung extra.
Speaker 2:Like I it's, and even you and I have had a conversation where it, where I'm, my heart is hurting or I'm taking things a little too personal, and I'll be the first one to go kill my tell. This isn't funny, Right.

I could not get that, which goes back to a really cool deal that you guys heard me mention nick a thousand times over and I'm gonna. As bad as she does not want to get on the porch, we're putting her on the porch. She's gonna come out.

Speaker 1:Yeah, that's going to happen, oh I cannot wait Real soon.
Speaker 2:I know she better keep me posted. Well, you'll know before I will Probably. So, speaking of having babies, Harmony had her baby.
Speaker 1:Let's go to the Foy farm, let's go.
Speaker 2:I know Well, the kids have got it figured out where we can do. They'll do little snippets, yeah, where you can see, but They'll do little snippets where you can see. So Harmony had her baby. This was her first baby. This is my gypsy Vanner, gypsy Cobb they all have different names, but draft horses I have gypsies. It looks kind of classed too, yes, yeah, big, big girl.
Speaker 2:But yes, she has been at Rotoma Equine Hospital for a long minute, cause it was her first baby and they are absolutely amazing. If you guys, anybody all over Texas, uh, kp, which you guys know, kp from country hills vet, um is an amazing human. I've got tons of veterinarians but KP sent me to um Rotoma equine hospital years and years and years ago and that's who handles, handles all my equine now. And uh, but yes, harmony has been there. Um, we've done all the sonograms and, boom, we have a baby. He's a colt, he is all legs and his name is Corduroy. Um, her name is Harmony, but it's Corduroy, so it's c-h-o-r-d.
Speaker 2:Like a chord in music, a roy and so um, and he is got curly, curly hair. Um, we've already started him on halter, we started leading him. Today. He's only a couple days old and she is just the most amazing mom and it's just, it's so beautiful I can't believe how big that baby is.
Speaker 2:That baby is huge. I mean he and she really, I mean, you saw her, kel, she was not. No, she didn't look, she did not. And you know the daddy I own the father and he's not a big stallion at all. Oh, bless her heart. And she is a rock star and I am so proud of her, I am so proud of her. So, yeah, we will. We will definitely share that.
Speaker 1:So it's been lots of babies.
Speaker 2:We have lots of babies We've had our goats are doing amazing. They've all gone to some amazing homes. Um, I have seven herd dogs. If you guys, y'all will show you pictures. But I have my Romanian Malacly. They are Anatolian Malacly lions from Romania.
Speaker 1:Google that if you don't know what it is.
Speaker 2:The US has them. They are phenomenal. I have seven puppies that will be ready to go home in four weeks. And if you guys need some herd dogs, if you need protectors of any kind, how big are those babies already? Well, they start off, which is kind of insane, because they start off kind of like the size of a weenie dog, maybe just not as long, and then they hit two weeks and then they go to kaboom, they look like pugs. It's just insane. And so, yeah, they're almost almost four weeks right now and and they are stunningly beautiful. So, yes, we've had that and, um, we've just had our horse, we have our, our baby donkey. So the foy farm is, we had a we had blossoming.
Speaker 2:We had a great spring and it was beautiful, and so now we're going to finish it up with um, with my first grain baby, my little birdie, and I'm so excited I cannot wait, she's coming. I can't wait.
Speaker 2:I can't wait, yeah, but so try to remember to think of the good things and the beautiful things and then focus on the bullshit, and I was thinking about that earlier when we were talking about crazy negative shit and just airing shit out on our porch. You know, sometimes and we do and we do have our phones that are in our face all the time, which do cause a lot of problems and they solve a lot at the same time. But one thing that I do go back and do, and because I have so many different animals and I have so many different businesses and so many things that are going, is you guys create a photo album If you guys have not really paid attention to the albums in your phones. Um, I'm not going to talk about Kel's green phone, cause she's got her fork sitting right here.
Speaker 2:I knew that was coming. Whatever, um, you guys create an album in your phone, create a favorite album, and there are things that will pop up on your socials and and it'll be memories from eight years ago, 10 years ago, whatever it is. Grab ahold of those, save them and put them into your. Create an album for that. That has been really beneficial for me here lately. Um, when I find myself sinking, when I find myself lost.
Speaker 2:When I find myself looking for answers or things, I go into that album. It's just as quick as losing yourself that you can turn around and go. Hey, come on now.
Speaker 1:Where's that smile?
Speaker 2:Where is that smile? Be part of the Smile Makers Club.
Speaker 2:Yes, we have on our port. It's all about that, it is, but that's something that you can utilize, that I really have found beneficial for me, that I would love to share with you guys. Create a, create an album, pick those hot buttons, pick those special moments, picks those those days when you see the littles that look up and smile at you, or priceless yeah, the babies that are are around you, or your besties, or the time that you busted your ass and fell off the boat, or whatever it is. I mean, come on, I'm like wait, did I fall off the boat? No, but we ain't been out in a few weeks. We do have to put that on the calendar.
