1:06

1:11

cooler honestly so stay tuned for that um but this past week honestly um I I

1:19

had a great day I had a rot day yesterday oh that's like part of my update really is that I got a rot like a

1:26

full rot day wow so did I meaning like did nothing a lot but one of the things that I actually did which was a new fave

1:34

of mine actually um I don't love just silence and listening to my dog's weird noises so I turned on a like six-h hour

1:42

long fall rainy jazz music compilation thing so it was like jazz music with

1:49

rain with like crackling fire it it was awesome and I read all day a real book

1:56

on my phone but yeah like on Kindle yeah yeah but yeah all day long I read a book

2:02

what' you read oh there was no um we did my brain didn't learn anything

2:09

from this book it was purely like fiction romance not anything you know I

2:15

had I had some good time to like hang out by myself cuz my husband abandoned me when when hunting season started so

2:21

I've been um just not married for the last couple of months it seems uh he's

2:26

back now but uh just by myself for the last pretty long time yeah um so that's

2:34

that's what's been happening but what what happened this past week what did I even what did we even do what did we

2:40

do I don't know we didn't work we only worked three days cuz we got back from

2:45

Oklahoma at the beginning of the week you're right so it was just kind of a a

2:50

little catchup catchup few days well you don't have to take her

2:56

yet oh yes you do just kidding no I'm so sorry I would get up with you sweet pee

3:02

just kidding yes we see you later her face it is the

3:10

most dramatic oh no that's such a face I love her so much what else did we

3:17

do I don't even yeah we all kind of took Monday and Tuesday for chill days and then um so here's the one thing that I

3:24

hate and I can say this after the fact because everyone's back now I don't tell people when they leave while they're

3:31

gone but I hate it that my parents left Jonathan left Austin left Kyle

3:39

left there was no one like if I Charles no okay there was Charles um if

3:46

literally if anything went wrong if an emergency happened I was just like it's just me and Charles for the whole Farm I

3:53

think you would have been fine that's just a lot yeah but I mean nothing happened like when you house it how

4:00

would you feel if it was literally everyone gone except Charles they have been gone before not Kyle she's like

4:07

everyone I think been there done that I think Kyle has has always been

4:14

there but there has been a time when your parents were gone too and I think it's always funny that my dad will text you and be like let me know if you need

4:20

anything whenever your house sitting they they're in town next time put in a very strange request I feel like his

4:28

response would be like well I'm not not doing I wouldn't meaning all that but uh I was just checking on

4:36

you I don't think he would I don't think if I was like I would love some pizza he'd probably be like no actually that

4:43

request I think he'd send you some pizza okay well okay not that if I said I wanted Ranch

4:49

pistachios he wouldn't he wouldn't be like I'll go get them yeah no but if you

4:55

were like do it yourself honestly some zah sounds good yeah it would it would

5:00

get door Dash to your house to my house that that he would do that for sure okay so this week is Thanksgiving

5:07

we are super excited to all have you know things going on with our own families and time off from work and just

5:13

like a time to be thankful so I think to start off the Thanksgiving catching up with Katie we should all go around and

5:20

say what we're thankful for we might take a couple turns you never know yeah why don't you start us off Abigail

5:25

Abigail start us off I I interrupted you some last time so would like to extend a

5:30

Matt's just going to be like potato and he's just put her up to the camera I was kind of going to go off of what everyone

5:37

else said yeah so going first is kind of I knew that about you we we

5:42

knew we gauged that so I am thankful

5:47

for my um this is just what came to my head

5:52

that I'm really thankful for is my fenced in backyard that is a good one good I mean it helps me a lot that's why

6:00

moo doesn't come around quite as much she's got her own place she's living it living it up and she's got a new

6:05

boyfriend or no you say brother yeah they're more they're more like siblings

6:10

um brother sister yeah her brother's name is Murphy and she has another brother whose

6:15

name is cash but he's like the older brother that's grumpy he is but he's only

6:21

three but but but he's grumpy he is grumpy and so I heard Murphy your best

6:27

friends yeah it's just it's just nice could just like wake up in the morning and like open the door and then they

6:32

just run out and they're so happy I wish we had that because Winnie will actually

6:38

attempt to kill herself in any way possible and so you have to put her on a leash if you go take her to go put her

6:44

in the front yard which doesn't sound like that's me being picky right that doesn't sound like a lot but to be able

6:49

to just like open the door and let them out and in that'd be so nice is nice that'd be so nice especially when it's

6:56

super freaking cold out mhm or raining could you a little fence tunnel to your door so that's the thing is like people

7:02

with like Amazon or FedEx or door Dash or anything like that there's we've

7:08

tried to configure it there's no real way for us to access it and keep it open for that to happen as well so also we

7:16

like the mo we left enough room for like the mower to come through there too so I mean you know what are you thankful for

7:22

Nate so we we we'll go around and do like little bits because you said fence I know you got more so

7:29

7:54

8:18

both looked at it separately and we were like okay well that's Macy her like it's her identical for sure um I'm okay hm I

8:27

8:35

um H I don't know what to put as number one like because there's just there's

8:40

just a lot that I'm thankful for yeah and so um I'm going to be cheesy because

8:45

8:57

10:13

after my Thanksgiving you don't get a you don't get a fresh Abigail um give a

10:19

little give a little something else give a little get a little deeper dig into your heart open up a little bit not not

10:25

an inanimate object tell us tell us what's really important to you uh the obvious obvious

10:33

thing I'm thankful for is my family yeah Fen is number two probably

10:39

so um so are you an only child let's let's dig into this a little bit I'm not an only child I have a sister you're the

10:46

purple sister what what yeah what does that mean a purple sister is that what

10:52

you said when there's two sisters there's a pink sister and a purple sister it is

10:57

facts this is new to me yeah what do you think it means um one's

11:06

more one's more of a girl a girls girl the pink is more girls girl I wouldn't

11:13

say girls girl I would say no I don't know what that means either to be honest I just heard it on T girl is

11:19

like you're you're you're not the girl in in the party that's like wants to be

11:26

in the center of like the guys like the girls is is where you thrive that's the

11:31

pink a girl no it's just what a girl's girl ising another term know what it means anyway um my take on pink sister

11:40

versus purple sister neither is better than the other it's more so

11:46

that I'm still lost like the purple sister is I I feel usually the younger

11:53

one or the middle one like it's usually um the the one that's off the beat

11:59

beaten path a little bit more um the one that kind of Beats to her own drum a little bit whereas the pink sister

12:06

usually has more um I mean yeah girly too but is usually more I feel like a

12:14

put together put together polished maybe yeah put together polished like more

12:20

just like on top of things yeah so you're the purple sister yeah yeah

12:26

sounds kind of bad now you said one isn't better than the other it's like well it's not though it's not seems like

12:33

it no not at all I guess it's just like I would 100% if I had a sibling I

12:40

would be the purple sister for sure it depends it depends who you're it

12:46

yeah is right you're right don't know I feel like if if there was a guy

12:52

equivalent it would be like the blue or the green brother blue brothers the pink

12:58

you're I feel like cuz you're on top of it but you're a little weird I feel like you're the blue brother I'm the blue you

13:04

said the blue is like the pink yeah yeah I would say you're like the blue brother okay yeah I would say Matt is the green

13:10

brother okay if you two were brothers for sure okay okay okay yeah I'll take

13:15

that um does that kind of make it more clear for you I'm still a little lost if

13:20

I'm being totally honest I'm trying to pretend to I think also why we go pink

13:27

sister purple sister is that and usually the older sibling is the pink sister is because you automatically

13:35

your brain goes to what you were growing up what you had to play with and it's

13:40

like my only experience like being the one to like beat up on another little girl was my little cousin and so it's

13:47

like if there was a pink option and a purple option I got my first dibs and I wanted the pink one and so she always

13:54

got stuck with purple and so like I don't know if that's the case also yeah

13:59

well I did have a purple bedroom and my sister did have a pink bedroom so say

14:06

it's pretty fitting that's perfect yeah and it works yeah apologies to my mom cuz I think she chose this but I I had a

14:12

room color when I was younger that I look back on now and I'm just like that is was lime GRE appalling combination no

14:19

it was purple and and orange oh it was purple the walls were

14:26

purple and they had like big orange C Les let me okay let me tell you about

14:34

purple okay oh I forgot your mom your mom might have picked purple for your

14:42

room my mom the dining room's purple the living room's purple the

14:50

hallway is purple bedroom's purple the art on the wall purple her car purple

14:59

every item of clo purple Dodge Charger purple every item of clothing in her

15:06

closet purple glasses purple Mouse for her computer purple

15:13

why she says and I quote I like purple okay fair okay but like does it go to

15:20

like is it just the walls or does it go to Furniture does it go to rugs does it

15:25

go to is it like you walk in and it's like um the doctor SU it hit you immediately that everything's purple or

15:31

is it subtle it hits you immediately um is there like are the plates purple uh

15:37

the plates will have purple accents the uh no no we had purple plates we had

15:44

purple plates growing up and the place mats they got purple in them the like

15:50

the art on the wall is per everything's purple it's purple art on a purple wall you're wearing a purple shirt right now

15:55

this is pink it's blush little bashful it's a little bashful blush is

16:02

more on the pink side the purple the Purple in my home in my childhood home right now is

16:09

overwhelming it's overwhelmingly purple I want to see it s sounds so over

16:14

stimulating and like I think she knows very over stimulating she knows that most people

16:22

would never in a million years but like I kind of respect that though yeah you

16:27

know she said I like purple see that I'm doing it all and that's why that's the reason I like purple I'm

16:33

going to get out of my purple car and my purple clothes and I'm going to walk into my purple house my stuff I like purple does she only plant purple

16:39

flowers nah she do plant flowers okay but she does she will go to bed in her purple

16:45

sheets okay it's all purple I love that

16:50

I love that for her now I bet a lot of people whenever they see purple they immediately think of her they're like

16:56

she would love that maybe I should just send it like that with turquoise oh well

17:02

that would be so over stimulating so going back to what you said about like the unfortunate combinations of

17:08

childhood so I remember when I was in like middle school and decorating

17:13

bedrooms and whatnot um my bedroom was we had chocolate brown

17:20

walls and we did um I begged for turquoise and brown there was this

17:25

specific I begged for it the the polka dots from Target begged for it I got the pink one instead

17:32

pink and brown tragic my sister went through a pink and brown phase I did blue and brown I wanted the the turquoise and brown I I begged everyone

17:39

my aunts my mom everyone they got me the ver Bradley pink and brown They I would have died for the turquoise um anyway

17:46

terrible trood terrible I'm just kidding it was so like looking back like you

17:52

know you're so dramatic in the meantime um but yeah Shaggy pink rug um pink

18:00

curtains brown and pink thing you know bedspread like like poop brown walls

18:08

like yeah Brown walls mhm that me and my nana painted we always make it back yeah

18:14

yeah I always make it back to poop yeah in every episode so um I feel like that

18:19

was that had a choke hold for sure on and then uh the zebra and lime green yep

18:26

that was a big one my sister I think at one point it was like hot pink lime green zebra y wow and zebra and hot pink

18:34

was like I remember too yeah there different stages that like the rooms

18:40

when when my childhood best friend's room was neon green like lime green with

18:45

uh stars on the ceiling it's good times y easier simpler speaking of the days of hot pink

18:53

and zebra stuff I'm I'm this just came to my mind and I would like to smell it

18:59

again interesting and I just remember it being one of the best things I've ever

19:04

smelled me and my friend there's this girl who lived in the neighborhood beside ours and so we were friends and

19:10

we would hair no we would ride over to her house on our bikes and there was

19:16

this one bottle of I guess scent spray whatever perfume or something and I

19:23

think it was Victoria Secret maybe probably but it was it would sit and it separated into to two different colors

19:30

and then you would mix it and it would turn hot pink and you would spray it but the

19:36

smell was just was kind of Flowery I think maybe but I remember smelling that

19:41

in seventh or eighth grade going I've never smelled anything this good I would like to smell again the

19:47

juicy remember the Juicy Couture sprays and stuff like that that you can get from like

19:53

Walgreens yeah it could have also been a Victoria Secret Victoria Secret's huge like for body sprays

19:59

it could have been Bath and Body Works it could have been I used to have so many Bath and Body Work sprays that's probably what it was I need to find this

20:05

pink mixup spray and smell it again and see if I was crazy I had this body

20:10

glitter in middle school that looking back I'm like the the toxic crap that

20:15

was probably in this I had that too but it was like a pink paste and I you would rub it on and like

20:22

it was glittery and it was like lotion but it had this like it was so bad I had

20:27

I think the Shimmer like body spray from Bath and Body Works I think it does that

20:33

where it like separates kind of and you mix it cuz I had that and that's the

20:39

only thing I can think of that like would look like two different things I

20:44

bet that's what it was it could have been sweet pea it could have been remember the names it could have been champagne toast it could have been champ

20:51

Japanese cherry blossom wasn't that that I think I had Japanese cherry blossom could have been a thousand wishes I'm

20:57

might have to do some research so were you a body spray connoisseur no uh my my best friend

21:07

worked there until uh earlier this year oh for for

21:13

several years okay so you're just like you were in the no yeah she she brought brought stuff home a lot I was a body

21:20

spray connoisseur if you would go under my sink in Middle School junior high oh

21:25

were you an axe kid axe tag you name it every flavor I got it I'll probably wear

21:31

multiple flavors a day every flavor that's right my I I mean chocolate I thought that I was thought

21:38

I'm going to smell sweet can smell it I'm going to smell sweet I can smell it right now the

21:44

chocolate after gym I went through a big La after gym no shower you kidding me I

21:50

went through big lavender face like everything had to be lavender scented I've always hated lavender okay it's Hit

21:57

or Miss for me well okay this is so embarrassing I was literally Middle School okay I read that lavender was

22:06

like intoxicating to boys lav right like it was like a

22:14

natural scent that like Drew in the opposite sex that's crazy because when I

22:20

was around that age I was on the internet and I had heard something about pheromones and I was trying to figure

22:25

out how to order them without my mom knowing how do I order man all the girls are really going to like

22:32

me yeah I like like I'm talking everything I tried to find like lavender

22:38

you all in lavender yeah like deodorant like that's hilarious shampoo body wash

22:45

that's a gold body spray everything I tried I was like I'm gonna be so irresistible you smell like a

22:52

grandma this is when I was like I know 12 133 and you walk out of the house so

22:58

con confident yeah I look back so confident I look back at what I thought

23:03

was hot in eighth grade the way I probably smelled walking

23:10

out of the eighth graders now look beautiful and I it makes me angry yeah

23:15

be ugly for a little bit it's character building they look grown you don't need to know how to do makeup when you're

23:21

that young seriously it's character building if you look good from the beginning I don't maybe well is it like

23:28

you look good in the you look bad growing up and then you get you kind of hit your glow I would definitely rather

23:34

that or would you rather you know have it all from the beginning and

23:39

then I feel like that happens though I feel like a lot of the time when you get to like 30 and you look back at middle

23:46

school and high school it kind of flip-flops like the ones that were super pretty super hot whatever like you

23:54

peaked yeah I think I think that does happen every now and then you get one that just yeah stays blessed um but

24:01

especially the guys especially the guys like the cute ones in in high

24:08

school and then you look back at the ones that you thought were nerdy and you're like man wish I'd taken a shot

24:16

cuz what they they glowed up would you say you went up or down I think I've

24:21

gone up okay I've for sure uh I wouldn't say I've had a glow up since um I've had

24:29

a glow up since middle school and high school I wouldn't like there was definitely a period that I looked better

24:34

than I do now as an adult early 20s me was better than late 20s me but you know

24:40

no I I think if I got physically fit again I would currently be in my Peak

24:47

attractive era I think yes absolutely I think I think I'm peing

24:52

right now I think when people think 20 is like the hottest you'll ever be absolutely not yeah like when you look

24:59

at the most beautiful women that are used in movies and whatnot they're usually in their late 20s to 30s yeah

25:05

yeah even even 40s like it's it's usually not like they might be playing a 20-year-old but they're 26 yeah abigael

25:13

you you haven't even to look forward to is it bad that it's getting to where I can't do it anymore but I used to see a

25:20

really hot actress in a movie I'd immediately look up how old she was and if she was older than me I'd be like

25:26

still got time like it would give me hope yeah like all

25:31

right I got time I still do that now all the time or i' look up how old she was when she filmed it y Selma hyek oh my

25:39

gosh she was in grownups that's one of your that's your comfort movie she was the mom I don't

25:45

know the side characters she was Lenny's wife yeah I wouldn't know her name she's

25:51

older and thriving like is she a main character in many things yeah in many

25:57

things yeah yeah hold on you you know who it is you'll know who it is when I know who it is I know who his wife is

26:02
