My ex-MIL loves elephants (as do I) so, of course, every birthday, Mother's Day, Christmas...any day of celebration where a gift is given,...she'd receive elephant statuettes, elephant pillows, ANYTHING with an elephant on it. This woman had THREE lighted glass cabinets FULL of elephant paraphernalia, so crammed that you couldn't even clearly see what they all looked like. It was a nightmare to help her dust and rearrange all those elephants...LOL

I do crosswords and all kinds of other brain games. Just hope it holds the dreaded diseases at bay for awhile longer!

That’s too many elephants! It’s what happens when people know you love something and before you know it, it’s turned into a full-fledged collection and you’re singing to yourself “My God, How did I get here?”. I used to collect carousel horse music boxes when I was much younger, can you guess what I got every year at Christmas?

OMG, your story of your mom gave me chills! I can tell you this mimics my grandmother to a T, down to the head injury. She too was a teacher, avid crossword enthusiast, before her eyesight went, and had driven into a tree, which sadly enough, was on the edge of her yard, causing the head injury which was what doctor’s thought might have brought on the Alzheimer’s.

I quit telling people I love teapots.
My favorite ex husband discovered this fact about me. In 20 years I've only seen 1 teapot similar to the hideous one he proudly gifted me for my first....and nearly last birthday spent in his company.

Did we get confirmation that David and Donna are a couple?! (They are from the old vlogs). Or, was she calling them out (they have ‘moved on’ friendship wise)? Or, they actually did visit during the pandemic??
SSB points out some rather lovely bee earrings from David that were given “last year”. Nutti corrects her supposed error in the time-line.
From the latest gift-grab…
Or maybe they got together post vlogs… Anyways, who cares? Do I care? Oh sigh .

After watching Dan’s vlogs recently, I’d also like to mention some ‘Dan appreciation’. If I had a moment in my life that I’d like to have a videographer capture, I’d trust him! (Pre-supposing a professional transaction ect).

Wonder how Philip will like that!
Something to look forward to! Mason can’t stand SJ blogging. No way is he putting up with Phyllis’ nonsense. Did anyone notice the shift in yesterday’s vlog? Seems like they are now co-presenters. I’d rather listen to the snorts.

I want to pin him down and shave off his gross facial splotchy hair and get out my number 3 Clippers and shave his head. What an odd little duck he would be....but would it be any worse than with his baldy head peaking thru his dread locks up top?
While lost in his own imagination, he believes he looks like a long lost musketeer, in reality he looks more like Toby Jones in Ever After.

Please will somebody shave his head! I can’t look at a mop without getting PTSD.

It’s not quite bedtime here, but I’m watching Selmar’s vlog… it’s like ASMR! (I’m sure that must have been mentioned here before)… AS-ELMAR!

If he'd only tie it back, at the very least. Didn't Monsieur Nostrille do minor bits in musicals? Plays? Actors can be tetchy about their looks, which might explain the abundance of hair and the need for a Plan B job with Fanny during the pando...

It really doesn’t look bad when it’s pulled back. When it’s down, it’s distracting, especially when he starts flipping it around. I guess the kid wants to live his best Pantene fantasy.

I believe he was also in a Boy Band

Tonnes of food washed down with wine
Eating and grabbing all the time
Stuff it in and stuff it down
In every village, city, and town.

Look at a carving, look at a door
Read from Wiki and grab more and more
Buy more tat and pretend to be poor
She's a dirty scrounger and a whore!

Personally not into the Dan appreciation ... Sick of B-Roll on a short video, heck how many times do I need to see a green van on a road! Plus he has no appreciation for his stuff - he throws everything around ... food on a conveyor belt, tools in the green monstrosity etc ...

So this immune friend is going to parachute 🪂 in from the Netherlands
Thus avoiding ANY contact with anyone for the entire 8 hour journey

Then at the chateau
With multiple ppls working and using every aspect of the farmhouse
They will be staying in the servants wing ??? To avoid contact ??

No eamause
No visit to Limoges
It’s high season ……

So a holiday in a room in a shitshow with international ppl floating in and out

Guess SSB is anxious to get the church back in use …..

Destination funerals must be a new business opportunity
