0:50

0:56
Nate was just gone he just he's like you good okay we did get a little bit video though you did it was everyone thought
1:02

1:08
like you were the one like thumbs uping um and then I haven't even watched it you actually put that in there yeah yeah
1:13
he did I was shocked that he put it in there just me on the outside of the shop just hurling up
1:20
my um but yeah I guess there's not that much to catch up it's just been a little
1:25
middle time in between trips cuz we've been just kind of kind of gone um and
1:31
we're about to leave again to for Illinois I try to get avigo to come hunting with me
1:37

1:49
said do you want to go to Illinois and this was when I was going last weekend before it all worked out cu I would have
1:55
been sick yeah but I was like that was pretty last minut you want to go hunting and you were like
2:00
that was I'd rather just house it that was like the day before you were leaving I wasn't
2:06
prepared and this time me and Nate are going together so we're going hunting
2:12
like Thursday through Saturday me and Matt are going and then y'all are meeting us up there Saturday night we're
2:18

2:24

2:31
and then that's on Monday and then on Thursday we leave to go to Oklahoma yeah
2:37
are you I can hang Nate can hang I can
2:42
hang I can hang in the day time Abigail does not do well with less
2:50
than 11 hours of sleep per night no but the time change has really has really been good to me though cuz now I can go
2:57
to bed at 8 where that used to be 9 and then I wake up at like 6:30 yeah so
3:04
I get a good what is that like 10 and a half you really do that I do and I sleep
3:12
soundly all through the night wow how much sleep you get in these
3:19
days four four he has a newborn at home give her
3:25
take so they did I will give an update from the last couching up with Katie I got a burrito photo
3:30
sad burrito very sad burrito such a p pitiful burrito and then Matt you both
3:37
sent me crying baby pictures in the same day because he sent me one where they dressed her up like a man Drake and she
3:42
was just screaming hilarious which is funny because like yeah yeah it was hilarious but um I'm I'm shocked you're
3:49
getting four well you know there's not a whole lot I can do a lot of the times oh
3:56
yeah and you're no caffeine that's crazy are you still I am still no
4:02
caffeine how's it going just high on life I'm glad you are I'm just
4:08
cruising there is I mean I guess like when it comes time for like me to birth
4:13
a child I will be off caffeine or at least like on very low amount of caffeine because it's not good for you
4:18
but it's going to be rough that lack of sleep for me is going to be detrimental
4:24
when I have a kid or when you both it's like hey Abigail um you just
4:32
got to move in this is this is why I can't live on the property cuz I would get I would get a 2
4:38
a phone call be like she won't stop crying no I fully think for my sanity
4:44
and so that I can keep being functional um and I understand this is definitely like a privileged thing but I want to
4:51
get a Night Nurse a couple times yeah if I was in a position to do it I would do
4:57
it a night nurse you can get someone to come out and like help you which I I would like I mean this is TMI I would
5:03
like to breastfeed and stuff but like even when you're breastfeeding um if you plan on like pumping and then like doing
5:09
bottles or whatever they still help you throughout the night so you can still get a little more sleep but I don't know
5:16
I say that but then I also know that I how protective I am of like animals and
5:21
I can't imagine how protective I'll be of my child of like a stranger or like a whatever being in my house so I don't
5:27
know I might say that and then refuse but well speaking of
5:34
children uh we put up a last minute little question poll thing and people
5:40
want to know are you pregnant no when will you be pregnant I feel like this is
5:46
that sound do you wear wigs like you know that one from Lord anyway okay I don't but never mind I don't either
5:53
reference you get it no okay just kidding well got cut that
6:00
out there's no way he's cutting it out um so no I'm not pregnant um not trying
6:07
to get pregnant at the moment so like here's the thing and I feel like I kind of want to talk about it one time just so that there's like a reference for
6:14
people because people are nosy people want to know um so I do have PCOS I've
6:20
known since I was like 22 but I've had issues with it for longer than that um I
6:26
TMI if you're a dude you might not want to watch this I have like super regular SI I'll go months without a period super
6:32
bad horrible periods when I do have them um really is like lots of issues with
6:38
weight what excuse me I don't know what that is my period PC yes polycystic
6:44
ovarian syndrome now I know so I've got like cysts on my ovaries okay yeah and
6:51
my my grandma Michael had it we suspect my mom probably has it like I think it's
6:56
probably some like both my grandma and my mom like all had issues getting pregnant it's a lot more common now than
7:03
yeah I think it's just a lot of people have it yeah you know um so I've always had like weight issues with it there's
7:09
lots of different side effects from it that people have um and so for me it's
7:15
it's definitely been an issue for me since I was probably you know 22 23 um
7:20
it really didn't affect me as heavily before then and so that sometimes does cause
7:28
infertility so it's a big Fe fear of mine I don't have any like confirmation that I'm infertile or will have issues
7:37
because we tried for like a few months at the beginning of the year and then
7:43
we're like okay actually I think God did us a favor and we didn't get pregnant for a reason and we're just going to
7:48
quit trying for a little bit cuz we just got real busy and I was like why did we start trying at the most stressful part
7:55
of my year when I'm not sleeping in it's fing season and I'm stressed out the yinyang you know so we just decided
8:02
to hold off a little bit longer the first little bit was just cuz we had you
8:08
know just gotten married and we didn't really want to have a baby at first um
8:13
but I'm 28 and so I mean probably in the next year or
8:18
two we'll get serious about it and if we have issues we'll have to do something about it but yeah no babies I don't have
8:24
babies I'm not pregnant like I literally checked I I was very suspicious
8:30
this last weekend with me being like so nauseous and I was like but I'm not I
8:35
think that was just a little stupid 24-hour bug yeah um I'm glad I didn't get it me too you never get sick when I
8:42
get sick and that's shocking but also we don't really touch either we never touch we have hugged at the Congress kind
8:51
of for that picture oh yeah what will what what do you think
8:56
will bring a hug between us I don't know we both cried in front of
9:02
each other and haven't hugged so I don't I did rub your back while you were crying at the toilet you did you did I
9:10
gave you a little Pat like when we were at the vet the first day was seven and you were crying I did did a little
9:16
backat but I didn't I didn't go any further than that I think it won't be like a sad time I
9:23
think it'll be like like a happy hug I don't think it'll be like a oh you're sad need to
9:29
comfort you hug yeah cuz we've been we we've done that yeah like me and Rebecca
9:35
the I'm not joking the only time we've hugged is like when her dad passed or like when my nana passed like that's the
9:42
only we don't hug or she hugged me at my wedding yeah she did do that I do remember at the the Halloween party the
9:49
other night uh Danny I saw Danny hug you a few times and I just kept being like I
9:55
hug her that's a weird thing it's it's certain people yeah me and Danny hug every time I see each we see each other
10:03
there's people that I hug every time I see them it's weird me and Nate haven't hugged no
10:09
they've only and they've barely had a photo together we haven't had a photo together well or is it a group photo I
10:15
took a photo of y'all walking from behind but it wasn't like a stage photo so I guess it doesn't count but doesn't
10:21
count we we're we're kind of just keeping it going we're like how long can we just not have a photo together but
10:27
that's so you you you need a picture why do you not want a picture together you start sneakily taking them it's just
10:33
been so long why quit now we didn't intend to start a streak me and Matt had
10:39
a photo together pretty quickly because we were hunting together and so like we just randomly got one because we both
10:45
got deer but and then we both got turkeys why would you not want one
10:50
together though I'm not opposed to it okay I thought it was you that wanted to
10:56
keep that was like we got to keep it going yeah I'm I'm not opposed to us having a
11:02
picture together I'm just more for keeping the streak alive it's not that I don't want to take a picture with you
11:08
I'm we've just gone so long he doesn't want to have a picture with you because he doesn't want to have to post anything on your
11:18
birthday I only had one this past year it was me and it was me and you and code red yeah it was so Random I only had
11:25
that one this year I'll or next year I'll have more but night have none like I have so so she was having to
11:34
go through my pictures on my computer to send some stuff over email and she was
11:40
like why do you have so many photos of me that I didn't know existed they're not Creeper photos like I'm like oh you
11:46
look cute with moo and I'll just like be like Mom and take her a picture and I
11:51
just have so many I just forget to send him to her so I just have so many pictures of Abigail I was just like going through like huh okay and then I
11:59
saw more and I saw more you always are like posing I want these yeah like there
12:06
was some of me in front of the VSS code red Coliseum at Congress when I was like wearing my cute little fit like I need
12:12
that but I'll go through them again and and find some um there was also a lot of Nate On
12:19
bow that I didn't know existed like we knew that one that was edited but right
12:24
right I'm a horse guy yeah he's a horse guy that's just what how they're going to he does a cowboy hat he does have a
12:32
cowboy hat you both have cowboy hats I'm a horse girl Matt needs so I think for Matt's
12:39
birthday I mean do you think he's going to want a cowboy hat I mean we're going to the place to get it I think he would wear it at shows I don't think he would
12:47
ever wear it any other time but do you even think he would wear it at shows cuz like that's the only reason I got mine
12:53
but also like are we going to look like dweebs if my whole crew is non-horse people wearing cowboy hats okay but they
12:58
don't know that yes they do how do they know not everyone there knows that I just told
13:03
them I'm a horse guy I just said I was a horse girl how will they
13:09
know okay are you bringing yours it's possible if if you aren't
13:17
bringing yours and I'm the only one it's super acceptable for you to be the only one but I don't want to be the I'm not
13:24
taking mine but you won't be out of it's it's fine we all suppos supposed
13:33
if we can if we can figure this out with the hat I'm going to have six
13:39
pieces of luggage which means somebody's going to have to be carrying stuff for me he he
13:46
is going he's flying out with us so oh did you get him a flight not yet okay I just learned that but by the way okay
13:53
this brings up another topic I keep seeing in the comments people being like what does Abigail actually do
14:00
what do you do do you want me to explain your job or do you want to explain your job you go ahead are you curious are you
14:06
curious what I'm GNA say go like what do you think I do um so we'll just kind of
14:14
go off of like what happened so I was getting to the point where social media was growing to the point of past me
14:22
handling it all um and there was things falling through the cracks like like things that I needed to be doing
14:28
paperwork things and um just keeping on top of my schedule and so Aubra my brand manager
14:34
was like because that's not her job and she's got other things going on she was like I think it's time that you get a
14:41
personal assistant I think you need help um not even just with all of the administrative administrative stuff but
14:49
you know helping you get content and help you know and traveling and all that good stuff and so a little over a year
14:55
now we hit our year mark in September um she put out an ad for
15:01
herself needing a personal assistant because that was a big problem was I was
15:08
like I don't know how to even put this out there because if I put a status out on my story saying I need a personal
15:13
assistant I felt like it was going to be overwhelming it was going to be very difficult to weed through people and so
15:20
I didn't want to I really didn't want someone that followed me either I really liked the way it happened where you had
15:25
no clue what my situation was and so she did that we had a few people we
15:31
interviewed interviewed you um I just thought of something funny say
15:37
it like I remember the like little ad for it saying must be comfortable around
15:43
animals and I was like oh my gosh like that's really cool I would love to work around animals
15:48
um but I remember like when I just interviewed with Aubra I definitely talk
15:53
myself up to being like more experienced with animals than I am
16:01
like I was like yeah like I did animal science for one semester
16:08
like but I was like we we like all the time for class we like we go to the horse Science Center and like do stuff
16:15
with them and like we went to the like dairy farm like MTSU has all that stuff and I went there once I went to all of
16:22
those places once but I was like yeah was it like a touring kind of situation
16:27
too yes oh my gosh I feel like this is the first time
16:33
you've told me this I haven't thought about it before because you were I was like oh yeah you probably did this in horse science because I thought you had
16:39
done it for way longer and you just keep me like yeah I just have no
16:45
experience you but like even today we were doing like teeth in the barn you have absolutely taken to it like a duct
16:52
water um so anyway continue you got the job when we first started we were like
16:59
oh it's just part-time like there's no way that I need a full-time help yeah you know and so you started coming for
17:05
like three or four hours a day and you still had another job and then how long did that last probably a
17:12
month yeah and then it was like um I mean if you want to quit your other job you could lit I quit right before we
17:17
went to the Congress because I remember I was supposed to work at my other job and I was like I really want to go on this trip and uh so I like this sounds
17:27
this makes me sounds terrible makes me sound terrible but I remember like I didn't have anyone to cover my shift I
17:33
was just like yeah I can't I can't come to work I'm sorry and I went to Congress and then I quit oh no it worked out
17:42
though yeah um so with that being said
17:48
Your Role has evolved and I think it is continuing to evolve because I've never
17:54
had a personal assistant I've never needed a personal assistant I've never had enough things to do to need that and
17:59
so over the last year or I probably did need one like a year ahead when I
18:04
actually got one but it keep we keep figuring out new roles as we go so these days you handle
18:12
lots of administrative stuff getting all the FES registered getting all of vs C
18:18
Red's paperwork in handling emailing and correspondence um booking travel um like
18:26
any type of set like like all the PO box stuff you handle you help me film at
18:31
least eight videos a day sometimes more before we go on trips you go on trips with me like as a travel companion and
18:38
as helping keep track of things while I'm gone and like my head space is in a different area I mean a huge thing is
18:47
just having an extra set of hands a lot of times so not even behind the camera but like today you were just jumping in
18:54
holding the horse when needed with the vet I mean a lot of the times I'm filming but I just need someone like
19:00
being with me and knowing the animals as well as I do and being able to jump in
19:05
when needed so yes you do administrative stuff yes we travel yes you do like kind
19:11
of basic personal assistant things but you also are just kind of like wherever
19:17
you need to be which you are very
19:24
adaptable like you just kind of like I think my favorite thing thing and like
19:29
one of your best qualities as an employee not as a person is that if
19:34
there's something to be done you don't really wait on me to tell you to do it you just see it and do it like the one
19:40
of the first things and this wasn't even something that you were really hired to do but I remember it was like one of the
19:46
first weeks that you were working there and I was like that is awesome is that I said hey I've got to run over my mom's
19:52
house I'll be back in a second but when I get back we're going to do this well I got hung up at my mom's house and you
19:59
just went ahead and did it and you were like I remember what it was I think I think it was putting the rug down it was
20:04
so hard and you were like sweating when you got back um I was like I I just like
20:10
I need to do this like imagine how cool it would be if like I put this whole rug
20:16
down it's a huge rug and my my living room is so narrow and small and all the
20:22
furniture fits in there so she had to do it underneath all the it was so bad um but anyway lot lot of it is I mean we
20:30
have fun times like there's lots of stuff that's I feel like I feel like there's perks to working here um feel
20:37
like there's perks but you know there's also some not fun stuff like you have no
20:44
life just like I don't have a life during fing season and like you take it on the chin on in C certain try I can't
20:52
even speak I think this year I'm more looking forward to it this year are you I thought that I would be
20:58
like dreading it after last year not because it was hard or like
21:04
it's just a lot I didn't like it but it's it's mostly just that they have them in the middle of the night and it's
21:10
very inconvenient it is for everyone for everyone except themselves even themselves it's inconvenient but like
21:18
that was that's the only thing but I think this year with one all of us being so much more comfortable around each
21:24
other also comfortable that's just you yeah you were the new girl you were the new
21:30
one whatever but um and with the shop though I feel like it'll be fun because
21:36
we can just we'll just like hang out and wait and I'll probably sleep and y'all will probably stay up okay did you hear
21:42
her yesterday say she was like when cuz my shop we like finished out a part of our shop for like this circumstance for
21:49
filming in it for hosting people when they come in from out of town that kind of thing
21:54
and we haven't furnished it yet it's brand new and so yesterday she's like I really need you to get like a pull out
22:00
couch because like I don't if I go to sleep like I still want to be out there like I don't I have
22:07
fomo I'm like so you're telling me we're all going to be staying up hanging out and you want to just be sleeping in the
22:14
middle of all of us yes because if something funny happens
22:19
then I want to like hear and wake up and be like what's going on and I think I'm
22:24
relating more to can we get two two pull out two pull out couch bed
22:30
things yeah no um so yeah so it's like a little hangout area we can I plan on
22:36
like cooking chili and having like a crock pot full of food and usually we
22:42
know within a night or two that it's happening I mean sometimes like Karen but Karen's a mini like I feel like with
22:48
my big horses generally we get like white milk and it's either that day or the next day
22:54
and we can kind of all Hands-On deck it um beans or no beans beans I don't actually eat the
23:01
chili I just make it for y'all so if you want beans you can have it no beans I don't understand just meat
23:11
chili I don't like it I need something else in there is it not chili if it has beans in it well I think originally
23:18
chili was just meat but then people adapted I like it like it with beans
23:26
just nobody ever makes it with no beans anymore because it's better well sometimes you just want the OG the
23:31
original a taste of History okay you can bring your own
23:38
chili since you don't like potluck food we'll do a little chili potluck a
23:43
chili cook off but you only chili C you only eat your own like wow this is the best one um
23:52
yeah I I just I do I do foresee some fun nights of playing the lord of the
23:58
ringsman Monopoly Katon uh we are getting an Xbox I've never played Xbox I'll bring
24:05
twister twister I just feel like that would be really funny my knees ain't got
24:11
twister in them can we can we get two Xboxes can we get a Wii okay do y'all
24:17
see how spoiled these people are well you have one Xbox and one TV and you
24:22
share the screen they cheat that's true you need two TVs back to back
24:28
so you can't see each other's screen two TVs back to
24:35
back wall TV TV Mt Nate yes I'm not
24:41
buying two Xboxes for y'all to just sit there on playing Just G just throwing it
24:48
out there you did say a we though because we play We bowling so play a Wii I would play a Wii I would play Wii all
24:55
but do they even make them anymore you'd have to get one off like Marketplace or something I see people selling them all the time
25:01
but why' they quit I don't know what if we got a VR headset
25:07
please the scary games we could play no yes that would be so fun no think of the
25:15
the videos though it would be hilarious it would be it would be great well that's how they get me they get me to do
25:20
stuff cuz like think of the videos thank is it yeah and I'm like and then we
25:26
could do like a horse riding video are for you or Nate blur this
25:36
out what kind of what what would you want to play in VR I don't know I don't even know what the options
25:43
are I would mind doing like I mean do they do like Call of Duty in VR I don't
25:49
think so there's shooter games that you can play I'd be okay doing that I know I know I can't get shot like you know like
25:56
yeah but I feel like it feels pretty real when you're in there like we were talking about yeah was it us that was
26:01
talking about it how if you put like a wooden plank yes there's a there's a
26:07
game where you get in the elevator it takes you to the top of a building and then you have to walk out on a skinny Plank and you can look down think you're
26:13
going to fall but if you actually put a 2x4 on the ground and walk on the
26:20
two there's no way you think it's not real you're going to be panicked and
26:27
like the shop living room is like it's a really big room I feel like that'd be a great place for oh yeah like a VR
26:33
because there's so like you're not going to run into stuff constantly yeah I feel like we'll we'll for sure all get like
26:39
really good at pingpong Nate already is okay well you're really good too we're working on it we are pingpong is we've
26:47
talked about this a little bit already um it's definitely the I feel like we're going to look back on the year 20124 of
26:52
our Lord and refer to it as the ping pong year maybe 2025 as well the ping
26:59
pong years um for some reason it's really only been the last half of this year I feel like
27:06
because I we there's not a day we don't play it also I have a new serve I want
27:11
to try it on you is it legal I'm going to be honest I'm going to spill some little juice right here I think
27:19

28:44
little undercutting one yeah okay so sorry we're talking about ping pong too
28:50
much now it is the ping pong era insert myself into this convers um Nate what's your favorite
28:58
quality about us oh yeah these are questions also like from Facebook so as
29:05
as a doo or individually individually H my favorite quality would
29:18
be wow I like your Katie your
29:31
grit and perseverance grit and perseverance I think that's my favorite quality about you and I think my
29:38
favorite quality about you is
29:46
your ability to really listen
29:52
Okay do you did you say grit and perseverance because I was vomiting throughout our video session the other
29:59
day uh that's not why I said it but now that you say that a good display good example a good display
30:07
yeah and we finished yeah like nothing happened just walked back in all right
30:13
here we go I'm telling you I'd have been on the ground nauseous today okay your turn my
30:19
favorite quality about Nate is that I don't know what to call this but just
30:25
like I immediately felt like we were friends and was like immediately comfortable cuz the first day that we
30:32
met was at the cattle sale last year and I remember it was I was like really awkward cuz didn't know what to do and
30:40
we went through I don't know why I remember this but I remember like we went through the food line together just chatting
30:48
just yeah felt like we were already friends yeah so yeah and then um thanks
30:58
you just want to want to continue I would
31:03
say it's okay you don't have to be nice to me it's fine it's going to be harder
31:09
not because there are less things less qualities that I like about you but
31:14
because I feel like what I said she likes more about me than you I didn't say
31:21
that she said she didn't say that um
31:31
I there's nothing it's not I'm I'm lit I'm having to like choose cuz there are
31:37
a few things that come to my mind okay well now I want to cry there were things about you too but that's just that was
31:44
just immediate like the first thing I Qui while you think my favorite physical quality about Nate is his
31:50
laugh it brings me joy it's it's a good good it's a contagious laugh it's a it
31:58
can often be rare it takes a lot to pull it out so if it's if it's really there I feel like it happens quite of it happens
32:04
pretty often around me so I well y'all are just really funny and and it's it's
32:09
not just like his normal giggle it's his like
32:15
you no he hears like you can hear it across a stadium like it and then a lot
32:22
of the times because it's so unexpected and like loud it Spurs more laughter in
32:28
a group and it just creates like it's a good time it brings a good vibe for so
32:33
long I tried to squash it and never do it I would because I would lose my voice
32:40
if I had like a funny hour with a group of people the next day I couldn't talk cuz I just screamed for an hour and so I
32:47
would really try hard to not laugh like that and because I have some friends who I laugh like that in public they're
32:54
like no funny but I can't I've tried to not do it I can't not do it we laugh on
33:02
I love a good laugh we laugh on I feel like you're a you're a very like quiet
33:08
laugher but you you do like I enjoy it whenever like I do get like a good laugh
33:13
out of you cuz I'm like I worked hard for that I can't give I can't just like give
33:21
it out all the time like it has to be like you have to earn it you got to earn it um okay
33:28
I I been thinking I think my favorite thing about you I don't know if it would
33:34
really be equality but is just that like since since we've met I feel like you
33:43
have kind of forced me to like not forced me but like kind of
33:50
forced me into being comfortable with you a little bit uhhuh not forcing but you I don't know how to put it like you
33:58
forced me to talk but I like that you do that cuz now I feel like anything that
34:03
happens in my life like you know about mhm like I don't think there's anything really going on that you don't know
34:09
about okay at first though you were sneaky sneaky um at first you would tell
34:17
me things and I would always like there was a little things that I'd be like
34:23
okay put that right there and then a week later he' like well um that wasn't
34:29
actually a party that was just me and that guy that I wasn't supposed to be seeing that I didn't want to tell you about so well you were sneaky
34:37
sneaky I don't I maybe cuz like at the beginning I didn't want can you you're
34:43
distracting me every time every time I start trying to form a thought I look glance this way
34:51
and I've SE Nate going into the camera I was trying to put the pieces together I'm sorry I
34:57
can't speak it's okay you're making me feel self-conscious that's not my that my sentences aren't making sense that's
35:03
not my intent you're just thinking as you were going I was tracking okay I'm still I still can't think of something I
35:09
like about you so just keep going I don't even know what I don't even know what I was talking about now so you were
35:14
talking about that I force you into being comfortable with me but that's I think maybe in the beginning I was I was
35:20
like trying to be like not cool but like not like overbearing like I didn't want
35:26
to just tell you everything about about my life cuz I didn't know if you actually care my problem is that I get
35:31
way too comfortable with people immediately maybe that that's kind of what I'm trying to put into words I
35:37
think I think ours are related let me try to say it this way I think you Ed
35:42
your grit and perseverance to create a comfortable atmosphere where you could be
35:48
yourself oh okay interesting I feel like that's kind of
35:54
I've kind of said the same thing for both of y'all like just making me feel comfortable and
36:00
like yeah coming out of my like showell and stuff just really blossoming as a
36:09
woman so after all this time have you thought of um something no honestly no
36:16
Wick no well kind of the same boat like we're
36:21
together every day there's lots of things that I love about you and I'm trying to think of
36:26
like specific stuff because I don't feel like there's many people that I can hang
36:32
out with as much as I hang out with you and enjoy it still you know like you
36:40
have a way of just being very easy to be around and it's not that you're it's not
36:45
that you're pliable it's not that you just oh you just go along with every it's not that you do that you know like
36:51
cuz I feel like those people that just say yes to everything it's like an illusion that they're to be around but
36:58
really they're just going along with like whatever someone says you don't do that so it's not that you just
37:05
agree you just have this way of just like I feel like you could fit in like you don't think this but you have a way
37:11
of fitting in everywhere and I think in your head you you don't like I don't
37:17
think you think that about yourself but you do who okay let me just say you came
37:22
into this world like a little over a year ago you had never been to a horse show you had never been hunting or
37:30
around Farm people around farm animals around vets doing really like high-tech
37:36
procedures you had never helped birth a horse you had like you've met how many
37:42
people over the course of 12 13 months and like you very much take it and
37:47
stride and you adapt very easily and well I think that since I started here
37:55
like seeing how quickly I can like kind of make friends
38:02
with people like Nate and Matt and then like and obviously Rebecca and her kids
38:08
and sha like it's made me feel a lot more confident I guess in like talking to people and being like okay maybe I am
38:15
likable you are and so I feel like I don't not that I don't try as hard but I
38:22
I don't like hold back as much I guess when I'm talking to people mhm now so
38:30
yeah anyway that's great what a what an improvement to your life to not be not
38:38
like I go out in public and I like talk to people and I I literally like telling
38:43
me that I would just go up to a random person in like a drive-thru and be like I love your hair I would never do
38:50
that I don't know why you do that now yeah that's good I actually went to
38:56
Starbucks this morning and there's this girl in the Drive-Thru that works at this specific location
39:02
that I've met before um she came to a party at my house like last year and we hadn't seen each other and I'm always
39:08
like super self-conscious that people aren't going to remember me and I remember them and um I like pull up to
39:15
the window and like as soon as I like pulled up she was like Hey as soon as I heard your name I thought it was you and
39:22
I was like oh my God I'm going to text you so we can hang out and I was like I would never do that I don't know that's
39:28
F friend yeah that's fun I made a [Laughter]
39:33
friend I I think sometimes it's to my detriment that
39:39
I try to make friends like I I'm so comfortable in such an open book to
39:45
everyone sometimes I think it's a little overbearing which you hear things you probably don't
39:50
want to hear um like I'm thinking back to when I was in college and okay so
39:57
this is terrible so one of my best friends Ashley now I didn't know before
40:04
college and I put on there that I wanted a random roommate because I didn't have anybody that I knew that was going to
40:10
cuz I went to lipsum I'd gone to lipsum in like high school and stuff and so a lot of lipskin people were going to
40:17
college but I didn't want to room with anybody that I knew and so I I applied
40:23
for a random roommate and you have to kind of do like a personality thing MH like like are you clean are you whatever
40:30
so I put on there that I was super organized super clean Super like tidy
40:37
never stay up late never stay up late like all this stuff that's the opposite
40:43
because this is so terrible I was 18 okay don't get mad at me I wanted a roommate that would keep our room
40:51
clean well they got Abigail a job so no this no this was back in college
40:59
yeah no I'm saying she lied on her thing and it worked oh yeah yeah well and so
41:05
that first night and Abigail or so sorry Ashley is like super type A every like
41:11
everything is very clean organized everything and very good grade she was in nursing
41:17
school and I like did not know what I was doing and that first night I remember I'm not going to say what I
41:23
said I said something so like what you say your best friend of 20 years about
41:29
yourself like like just so open about everything and she was like okay all right I guess that's just
41:36
how it is off camera what was it I was like good Lord okay you cannot keep this
41:43
in there okay like is it something about pooping it's about pooping I knew it was going to be about pooping what an ice
41:49
breaker though what an icebreaker it was like the first night that we start using
41:56
that and and and so after that like we were best friends and um we we did
42:01
everything together and so I just it works or it doesn't I will say I think people either like it or
42:07
they don't about that um which is fine yeah I don't know how I would respond to
42:15
that if someone I didn't know said that I'd probably be like
42:20
well that's I'm glad they're that comfortable with me already
42:27
I don't know I I wonder what a therapist would say about me doing that cuz that wasn't how I was always I feel like I I put on that
42:34
Persona going into college like I don't I think I was always a little more self-conscious and stuff in middle
42:40
school and high school I was not that girl I was like very quiet not at home but like in school
42:47
like around other kids so I'm wondering what a therapist would say that like what coping mechanism that is like maybe
42:53
I give them a reason not to like me and if they choose to like me still just like I'm going to say the most
42:58
outlandish thing right now and if they don't I'm going to see how they respond to it and then I'll know if they're my
43:06
friend or not you know right maybe that's maybe that's what it is but yeah that's just I don't I don't remember
43:13
exactly what our first like conversations were you either Nate but I
43:18
feel like you can attest I don't really there's not like a warmup
43:24
period no one of I mean our first day we talked about pooping did yeah because
43:31
the we went to get the goat and the Goat pooped on me in the car okay well that's
43:38
a goat poop not a human poop why but we were still talking about pooping that's not the same you said the
43:43
first day you came was not going to get the goat it was remember we did the video with Matt and it was like what the
43:50
YouTube channel is going to be and so we were just we were just going around the
43:56
farm to different places is taking pictures and um I do remember that we did like Drone
44:02
footage and yeah you were wearing a green shirt I was I was Bella was on a
44:10
leash yeah I do remember yep and there was no
44:16
poop talk no no poop talk not that day you were quiet that first day yeah yeah
44:22
for sure yeah I'm not going to say what our conversation
44:27
were on the way to Congress last year but it was
44:34
definitely defin I don't know it it kind of let me know that you were more comfortable with me than I
44:41
thought which isn't a bad thing like I was glad but well I think cuz that was
44:47
like a 7h hour drive together and so I remember talking about ex-boyfriends I got a complete like love life history
44:55
down with some extra exas added
45:02
in and you're just sitting there like okay like I don't know what to say
45:08
back to this that's of like the same caliber like I want to match the energy
45:13
but I don't have anything well anyway that's
45:21
funny last question what is everyone's favorite Thanksgiving dish
45:28
Honey Baked Ham but not not just the ham this is why
45:36
I get two so I have my own whenever I buy my own honey bake T um I like to
45:42
stand there like a caveman and take off the pieces and dip it in the
45:48
juice it's so good sounds good it's so good not have to try it's so good I'll
45:55
get us one I'll get us a bowling season Honey Baked Ham nice to eat off of do we all get our [Laughter]
46:03
own those things are like $100 no are you serious a 12 pounder each those
46:09
things are so expensive you don't even understand I thought maybe $4.99
46:16
at oh okay well if we're but you're talking about a giant we're talking about the Honey Baked hamco Honey Baked
46:23
hamco from HoneyBaked hamco like the 12 lb on the bone
46:30
ham I've never even heard of this okay so what's your favorite Thanksgiving dish it would have to in
46:38
fact be a sweet potato casserole with the marshmallows little chart on top
46:44
just give me a scoop I'll make you one sounds disgusting you don't like sweet potatoes I don't either but I'll make
46:50
you one sweet potato fries no no absolutely not but I'll make you one I'll eat it I'm a Sweet Potato Hater
46:57
why I don't like it that's why have you tried it it's nasty I don't
47:03
like the I don't I don't like how the texture is like a potato because it is a
47:08
potato but it just it doesn't seem like it should be something that came out of
47:14
the ground like a veget I don't I don't know it doesn't seem like a vegetable to
47:20
me and I just don't like it especially with the marshmallows and everything
47:27
more for me put marshmallows on a potato yes just don't sound right yes all right
47:34
what's yours um big roll person it's not really a dish but I love just
47:40
Thanksgiving it like I feel like that's just I don't eat rolls that often I got rolls at my house like every day I like
47:47
mac and cheese but like a good one when you set it on the little little table runner like some ham and a roll
47:55
Thanksgiving rolls that's that's my favorite yeah none of us said turkey but
48:00
I think turkeyy is just there to like it's an obligation I like turkey but ham
48:05
is ham is superior I think I think the turkeys they're out of obligation
48:10
honestly but I think people are tired of turkey but they're just like got to do I
48:16
think I like it as lunch meat more yeah you do I do get tur sometimes
48:21
for the sandwiches yeah I like it like thin instead of like big chunks it just it is so easy to have a dry turkey so
48:29
easy so easy to have a dry turkey anyway we're getting off the rails again this
48:34
was almost an hour long anyway um I feel like these segments keep turning into us
48:39
just yapping um Without Really any direction so we would love some some topics you
48:46
can get deep with it if you want to not even just a topic like an activity
48:51
activities or something like that I don't know or like we react to something
48:56
activ to do together while we chat about a certain topic um I've already put on
49:01
there that we are going to have guests that's kind of be that's more likely going to start around the new year um we
49:06
might have one or two people come on before then that are like local but um as far as inviting people out that's
49:12
probably going to start in the new year so anyway hope y'all enjoyed the yappen
49:18
I don't think there was much um of substance today but let me know what you
49:23
think if you have any topics for future any activi ities and we'll see you in the next one
