SPEAKER_03

What's up, you guys? Welcome. You know that she is the man thing. Welcome to Lyria.

SPEAKER_01

Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome to Lyria.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know if that's how it ends. It is, I want you to add to that movie about every two for a while. But he throws me off on all the welcomes. But, anyways, guys, welcome to good and good faiths. And we're live. I'm Alyssa. And I'm Amber. Don't say it.

SPEAKER_04

Good faith.

SPEAKER_03

We're happy you're here. We're happy you're back. We're kind of just having another chat fest episode where we are talking about a whole lot of everything and nothing. At the same time. Well, would you like to start us off? Do you have any updates? Like what's going on this week? Well, we saw each other today. At your work.

SPEAKER_01

That was so funny.

SPEAKER_03

Alyssa Redel Photos ex Amber's work. I don't know if you want to say that on the on the air. For legal reasons. No, I had a couple there this morning, and so I got to sit in my sister's office for like five minutes. And I acted like I worked there and it was so much. And I gave her a tour. Yes, with the bride as soon as she came in. Do you know where the bathroom is? I said, I don't really know. I think down that hallway. I okay. Listen, I was gonna text you. And before you came, I was gonna be like, hey, if they ask, the bathroom is right here by our offices and they can change. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I turned around after I told her that and I saw a powder room.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Yeah. And I I didn't text you because I was like, okay, this is too much. I don't need a text here, and like you don't work here. But it was it was like, I love when worlds collide like that. I feel weird. I don't feel very weird with you there because I I don't know, I feel pretty normal at work, but I feel like if I worked like at a restaurant or something, I'd be like, get up. Yeah, whenever I worked at the ice cream shop and grandma and grandad wouldn't come in, or like people I know, I was out of my mind. Yeah, I was buzzing and I'm like even at work now, whenever people from my outside life are working.

SPEAKER_04

Get out!

SPEAKER_03

Oh my gosh. I remember someone from high school came in there.

SPEAKER_01

I had an out-of-body experience.

SPEAKER_03

But the story behind it is funny because it's like not an aesthetic place to work. I guess. Well, it's like half warehouse, half office, but the offices are like run down. So it's like it's just a workplace. Like you make windows, or you don't know. And like if you passed it on the road, you would never imagine Alyssa Redell works.

SPEAKER_01

That's so funny.

SPEAKER_03

No, but whenever you told me that they came in that day, I said, no, no, no, we're serious right now. Well, because their work address is the same as ours, but in a different city. Yeah. So we got one of their packages and he came, they came by. He I mean, they came. They came by and was like, have you seen this package? So just like rummaging around the window. What move your hand? Oh, never mind. I couldn't see the shell. I was like, I got you those, dang it. Yeah, they're cute. It's my first time wearing them. Really? Farmers Market. Shout out the girl at Light and Local Market. I forgot what the seller's name was. Is that what the market's called? Light and local? Mm-hmm. Yep. They're having one this Saturday. I th or no, let me not say stuff. Cut that out. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it was it was so refreshing seeing you today at work. It was so fun. It was nice.

SPEAKER_03

I wish we worked together. I went to my job sad.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, I know.

SPEAKER_03

I was like sad whenever you left. It's like, Loki, I wish you like worked there. Like that would be kind of fun. We'd get in trouble though, I fear. Yeah, for sure. Like because me and not even like by the boss, but like by the our peers. Yeah. I think me and Katie sometimes annoy people. Those around co-workers. Because it's like we act like babies, baby boys in the office. And I forget that I'm 30. 30. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Why are you saying this stuff? And like this a thought today. Like, I'm the one in the office where they probably think I am just like on one. I'm like, I I I was gonna give an example, but I'll give today's example. I didn't say this, but this is what I was thinking. My next question for everyone. Like, it was silent for like an hour. I was like, what are Brittany, what's your middle name? And I was gonna like ask everybody their middle names. It's just things I have to know. Like, I will bring up any question, anything in the office. And I think they think I'm like, I don't know, on drugs. I remember a few years ago, I was like up in a balcony looking down at the cars passing, and I was like, yeah, each and every person in that car, they have their own storyline. I wonder where they're going. And I like was just, you know, I look into people's houses and see their lives. And then the person I was with, like, what are you smoking? What? I didn't think that was that weird to be thinking what's going on in their lives as they're passing like each of those cars are a person. Yes, that's actually crazy to think about. I do when I used to think about it more when I was younger, actually. I feel like we went on more road trips, but as we were passing cars. And yes, guys, I am looking into your house if you live on the side of the road. Just no. Trust, I am especially in the evenings and you have some pretty lights. When you have those lamps, I love when I drive by a house and they have their lamps on. I'm like, thank you for making it in their house. Like meets. Yes. She's getting like warm bread out of the oven. What is that saying about us yearning for to live in a stranger's home? No, but I yeah, I would drive by like the cars. I'm like, they're going somewhere. Like, where are they going? Like they have a mom and a dad. They're they might be going to visit their cousin in Idaho for like someone's recital. And like, we're going here to Blue Ridge, Georgia. We're just a passing spectrum. Yes. Like, I'm the main character.

SPEAKER_01

They could be going to Italy right now. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

And there's like, there's like rows and rows and roses. I look at all the windows, and I'm like, there's a person in each one of those windows, and they're going. Like they have like this trip that they could have planned for like months and months, and like that, like they're on their trip right now, and I'm a speck of dust looking up at their plane, but they're in their plane, but they don't know that there's a little, a little girl looking at them. Anyways, maybe it does sound like we are smoking stuff to other people.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know what's normal.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. That just hadn't my heart beating fast.

SPEAKER_01

Why?

SPEAKER_03

I don't know. Just like whenever I think about deep things like that, I get like any other what did you do? What did I do yesterday, you ask? So heavens. I don't know what was said in the last podcast or not. I might have been because it's it's I don't think anything was said about this thing. I am beginning to see what my mom's talking about with like I don't want to say the word addiction, but I really like buying furniture off of Facebook Marketplace. Like that is my I wake up in the morning. I try not to check my phone first thing, of course. But first opportunity I do that is I crack it open. Yeah, I'm on FP. And I found this B. Yeah. What did I say? I don't know what I said. Facebook. Facebook marketplace. But I found this table. The most beautiful pine table. I still have not seen. Really? I'll show you after. Well, if we do a dump this century, we'll post something. I'm sorry. I I keep forgetting. How do you say drop something? I'm not that reliable with that kind of stuff. Yeah, so next time we do our drop, we'll have to go back to like the last six episodes and say probably not. We'll probably just do like the last episode and then this episode and a jump. Okay. Well, I'll try to remember to include the table in there because it's a beautiful, like, how many feet is 83 inches? 86 is I mean, we talked about the math situation. I know 86 is nine feet, right? I think it's nine feet. Nine times nine. Nine times twelve. No, don't bring the twelve. Oh wait, yeah, I guess inches. Yeah. I'm like, why are you bringing 12 into this? Can you get your calculator? I don't even know how to do that math on a calculator. I I think maybe it's nine. No, I think it's eight. Eight. Yeah, 96 inches. Wait, you said 86 inches? Yeah, I was getting that in the middle. Well, I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know that one.

SPEAKER_03

It doesn't matter. I'm getting into the weeds now. But it's a long table. It's like a maybe like around seven foot. It's eighty-three inches, actually, I think. But okay, it's around a seven foot pine table. And it is so pretty. And it I don't really know poundage or weight, but I it was really, really heavy. Like I feel like it was over a hundred. Moy heavy. It was moy heavy. Me and my mom, I couldn't recruit my dad and my brother to help me. So my mom, bless her, she's my biggest supporter and my addiction to marketplace. And she got my dad's truck. We headed to Lakeland. And the first day we went there, we brought the I almost I almost had a stroke or something right there. I said, I was gonna say the Jeep Cherokee. And then I was at the last minute, I okay. Anyways, we brought the Cherokee over. For just being real here. And it didn't fit in there, it wasn't even wide enough. So we drove all the way to Lakeland for no reason. And then I almost started crying on the way home. Mom got mad at me. And then I just wanted the dang table. So I paid the lady. I'm like, please don't, please don't sell it from underneath me. I'll be back. She seemed nice enough. She gave me her card too. Oh if she had a call. Shout out to Jerry, some kind of real tea in Lakeland. She was so, so, so nice. But the next day we went back. I don't know how we got that table up on the bed of that truck. Did it first of all? No. Jerry tried to, but she was also scheduled for a hip replacement this week. So how old was Jerry? She was, I don't know, like a little older. Oh. I thought she was like your age. No, no, no. She's all right? No. But oh, we had trouble getting the bed of the truck open. Like I was so embarrassed. It was like 90-something degrees. We were dressed to go to dinner, also, and I'm in the back of dad's truck bed, and it's disgusting. And I'm boring you with the details, but it was just a really, really tough situation. And we somehow got. Was it worth it? Yeah. For sure. But you can't even put it in your house. No. It's in a different house. It is. Yeah. So um I won't even be able to use the table for maybe like in the next one to two years.

SPEAKER_01

Purchases a home.

SPEAKER_03

Until I sell my condo and purchase a home that it can fit. Because I refuse. Me and mom both agreed that we're not lifting that up the stairs, nor is it possible for us. And also it cannot fit in my 950 square foot condo. So yeah, we're using the rental house as where my furniture will be stored. I was almost about to look into a storage unit, but I told you, you need you should put it in the house. But yeah, that was a really, really, really long-winded way to say I got a table yesterday. That's awesome. Thank you. Do you have anything? Yeah, I have a couple more things. So if you guys remember, my dog Bodhi had surgery and he was in a cone for like a month. Tarian's out, he's back in the cone. Because he, it's a long story. I don't need to get into the nitty-gritty of his stuff going on, but he got himself infected like with the UTI. And so he's back in his cone for like another week. But I had to go to the vet to get antibiotics. And it was on a Saturday, of course, so I had to go to the emergency vet. And I don't know how long you guys wait at the vet. But it was a five-hour situation. And I almost croaked. I felt like I was in prison. I was in this little room for four hours. I was in the lobby for an hour. And then when I was in the lobby, it was almost better because there was action going on. You can watch stuff, look at the new animals walking in. Yeah. And then some guy walked in and he's like, whoa. Like dizzy, falling over. And she's like, the wife that was with him. Come on, let's go to the bathroom. Let's get you to the bathroom. And I do realize this is an animal. Yes. And then the lady at the desk, she's like, and how old is he? She's like, he's 74. Said, are they about to treat this man here? They didn't have an animal. I don't know. Maybe they're picking one up. But the lady at the desk was calling the ambulance. Oh. And so the ambulance showed up. And I don't know if he was having like a heart attack or something. But Bodie started trying to attack the paramedics and stuff. So they brought me into a room at that point. Well, I got up and I went around the corner and she's like, I'll get you a room ready. Said, okay. Thinking that would speed up the process. No. That man was treated and everything by 9-1-1. Yeah, in a tiny little room with my dog. And I was so hungry, I had to go out there to the front thing to get some food out of the little fridge that they have. The fridge was locked, so I had to go up to the desk and ask like a freaking beggar, prisoner. So can you unlock the fridge, please? I can get something to eat. And then she watched. It was just the worst experience of my life. And then on top of that, it was like a a lot of money. A lot of money. A lot of money for some antibiotics. A lot of money. But he's doing okay now. That's good. Yeah. Angel. Also, just to piggyback on top of that bad thing. I bought this gorgeous dress for a bachelorette trip I have coming up. I showed you that yellow one. I've been waiting. And it's from ASOS. So everything in our sizes sell out pretty quickly.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And I got it, and the package was like slit open with a knife. And it slit open slit through the dress as well. And did they email you back? I never emailed them, but I did a return. I still have to bring it to the UPS store, but I did a return and then I went to go back on there to reorder it. They're sold out in my size. That was like a whole different dress. That I do like the one that you ended up getting though. Better? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Really?

SPEAKER_03

Well, I don't know. Better. I feel like it's gonna look better on you. I like the dress itself, the old one, but I think that this one's gonna look better on you. And it's gonna be like more of the theme. Like beachy mermaid. It's gonna be really cute. The theme is. And it's still yellow. I think it's cute. Yeah. I I want to announce, everyone knows because me, between me and you, we blew up the nation with that American flag bag that I have. American flag bag. American flag bag. So I sewed a little patch. Did I talk about this already?

SPEAKER_01

I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_03

Probably. Probably. I talk like I beat a dead horse until it's pulped. Because I have nothing to talk about in my life. That's not true. We have an exciting beautiful table.

SPEAKER_01

That's not true. I got a tail yesterday. You got a beautiful seven foot foot pine table. Seven to eight foot pine table. Seven to twelve foot pine table. We're not really sure. I think it's like probably seven feet.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. See my mind works. Finish your bag. Yeah, I know. My mine works too fast. My bag, guys. There's a one left on my on my website if you want it. It's really cute. I was so happy with the bag and I was like, I'll put it on there and see if it two people bought one. I was so excited. Almost sold out.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Sold out! Almost one left in stock. It's like I literally had three.

SPEAKER_03

Good job. They're hard to make, you guys. Guys, they really hurt my finger. Really, really bad. I went thrifting the other day. I went to lunch with a friend in Seabring. It was a really cute time because it was a friend that I haven't seen in a while. So we grabbed lunch at Don Jose. And then after I, of course, had to go to the Goodwill that's down there. I did come back with a shirt. And I kind of want to try to upcycle that. Have you seen those? That blue one? Yeah. But it's cute as is. Really, though, it's quite large on me. But it's still gonna be a little bit more. Like it's a 3XL that I'm wearing around in public. Why would you even? I I I was like, oh. For reference, Amber wears an extra small. I thought it would fit like oversized, and it definitely does. Like on the hanger, it really didn't look big. And like it's not, it's not that big, but I I just feel like there's some parts of it that doesn't fit correctly. Because I wear extra large and large, like all the time. I love an oversized whatever, but it's like not fitting right. I was like, what if I like tried to like sew and upcycle it? Like, I don't even know what I mean. Well, do you like it enough to where you'll be mad if you mess it up? Kind of. Then maybe hang tight until you up. Hang tight for me, pal. What do the cops say when they tap your car?

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. Never been pulled over.

SPEAKER_03

Really? No, I have once. For what? Speedin'. Ooh. I didn't get a ticket though. Pretty power. Pretty privilege. Pretty dumb, and he knew it. Okay, sweetie. So just slow down for me, okay? I'm sorry that I even said pretty privileged. That's wrong of me because I know what I look like in my car. Did you ever get a ticket before? No. How many times have you gotten pulled over? One time. For your taillight? Yep. That was a dark time. L-I-E-D. What? L-I-E-D. Lydie? L-I-E-D. What did I say? You said uh L-I-E-D. Lied. Guys, we're truly not that dumb. I said Lied. I didn't know what I said. Because it felt wrong spelling it.

SPEAKER_02

I'm like, L-I-E-D. I'm like, what in the world did that spell?

SPEAKER_03

These strange markings. Wow, that was crazy. Lied. L-I-E-D. Gotcha. Don't enter me in a spelling B. Holy cow. I remember this is off topic, but we don't have a topic.

SPEAKER_02

We've jumped and leapfrogged one thing after another.

SPEAKER_03

Whenever Leah was helping me with our with my homework when I was like in high school. It said like both something, but both was the first word, so it was capitalized. So I said, both. And she's probably like, whoa.

SPEAKER_04

It's giving these girls way dumber than I thought.

SPEAKER_01

Annual. Annual.

SPEAKER_03

It's a dumb and dumb reference. Uh what? I didn't even know what you were talking about, though, with the both. At the front of a word? Both. It was like the sentence was like both so-and-so and so-and-so.

SPEAKER_01

But since both was the first word, the B was capitalized.

SPEAKER_02

So I thought it was someone's name.

unknown

Both.

SPEAKER_02

Both Cameron. Both Cameron and Sarah.

SPEAKER_01

I'm sorry. That's why I asked you for help.

SPEAKER_03

Leah, I asked you for help for a reason.

SPEAKER_02

Don't judge me. She's a Victorian.

SPEAKER_01

I am something else.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, crazy neighbor who needs help.

SPEAKER_03

I oh, I have something to tell you after this. I made a laptop case that's really cute. Is it yes? You said I can have it. I was talking about the blue one. You cannot have that one. I'll give you the other, like quilted, the tan one. You have something to say? Yeah, because you said that you messed up on that one. How did I mess up? You said it was not right. I don't know how I messed up though. What did I say? I don't know. You said it's just not right. It's messed up. You can have it though. Oh, and guys, she did offer me two of her perfumes that she didn't like. I did. For $48 at the low price of $29. I'm not here for a wash. Like, I don't want to wash. Okay, I need to make some money back. Or I guess that would be a wash if I made the money back. Yeah. Okay. I'm not here to lose money. Yeah, I know. I know it. Don't I know it? Okay, but the the other case is not bad. It is actually a functioning case. Okay, I'll take it. For free. Because I did your Amber and Stone video. Whatever. You used my camera. And mine. For the video. Yeah, most of it was filmed on my camera. The blurry bits, that was on your camera. Don't hate on my G7X. Your parts were a little bit more blurry, though. Yeah, my laptop case is cute. Yeah. I'm gonna make a peach cobbler. I might make that tonight. We'll make it for whenever I come over. When are you coming over? I got eight peaches rotten on my counter, sis. Um I can come over tomorrow. I mean I mean Saturday. This is Friday. Sorry, this is today's Friday, guys. Well, I have to make it before we leave on vacation. Yes. We can make it Wednesday evening. Eat it in the car on the way. Eat it all for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Thursday.

SPEAKER_02

Before we leave.

SPEAKER_03

No, I'm probably gonna make it make it tonight, and then I'll come over and eat it tomorrow. Okay. I also want to buy an old Ford truck. Like old Ford, like 1970s F-250. I think I'm gonna lean into Sarm Girl.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

It would be nice to have a little truck if you had a bunch of land, like just use it to toot around a little bit.

SPEAKER_03

To toot around. I don't like that at all. But I mean just to bop around. Yeah, that's what I was trying to say. I couldn't find the word scooter. That could have worked. Yeah. Yeah. I would love an old truck. If anyone knows one that's for sale, let me know. Yeah, me too. Now I want one too now. Get out of here. Because if you did that, I would get mad. If I bought a truck. If we both bought the as if people don't already think we're the same person. Actually, it isn't a problem. Yeah. And so I have a pink one, you have a purple one around Lake Wales, tote tootin' a running our pink and purple trucks. Okay. It'll be for at my house. Where would you even drive that?

SPEAKER_02

Into the woods. I'm just like imagining you on dad's land and like that.

SPEAKER_03

Go back in the driveway. You live in a free you you have a parking lot. You can drive around the parking lot to the other end of the condo complex. I can go check out building number one. I wanted to. I want to get a fish. No way you said that. I did. Bro. Is that on your list? No, it's not on my list, but I just said that the other day. We were talking about like an aquarium. Actually, it was yesterday. Were you have you been on like the Facebook algorithm where you see them like designing different tanks? No. Oh. That's the algorithm I'm on. That and like chicks hatching. I really want to get chicks slash ducks also, but I don't want them to get eaten by stuff. Anywho. I do want to get a fish. I've been I've been toying with that idea. But I also don't have the time to give a fish. I'll get a pink one, you get a purple one. If you get a fish, I'll just come over and look at it. Would you get a fish? I don't know, because I was like about to go get one. But then I remembered Ivy. Amber. Does she mess around? Lisa put a cap on the on the thing. On the table. I don't know. I think you should get one. What kind of fish?

SPEAKER_01

I want to get one. I don't know. Maybe a guppy.

SPEAKER_03

Ew. I don't like that word. I don't act I I actually don't think I want any other pets. But if fish it only lasts a year, so I'm just kidding. Crazy. Kidding. That is weird that you said that because I literally was thinking of that yesterday. It's just like an easy little pet that you can just look at and give it a good little life in its tank. Oh, yesterday we went to the for my mom's birthday, we went to the barn. It's called At Seven Dunes. At Seven Dunes. And it's like a little mini top golf, but in my opinion, like nicer and better. I mean, it's not nicer, like more state of the art. Yeah. It's but it's nicer because it's just chill and it's at a nice course. It was beautiful. It has food and you don't have to like drive to Orlando or Tampa. Yeah, so plug in that place. Today I did offer make an offer on a dresser. She was gonna give this to me for $100. It's so cute.

A high-rise apartment at the bottom of the ocean. Inside a giant Halloween town jack-o-lantern. A faraway city where all the residents are magical, or a bouncy house on top of a fluffy cloud.

SPEAKER_00

What was the first two?

SPEAKER_03

An abandoned castle overtaken by plants, a tiny mushroom cottage in the woods. And then we'll have to. A high rise at the bottom of the ocean. We're inside a jack-o'-lantern. There was one at the end.

SPEAKER_00

A bouncy house on a fluffy cloud. A far away.

SPEAKER_03

To our listeners, I'm kind of sorry. I do love jumping. Love trampolines, bounce houses. I'm literally picturing someone like turning us off right now. If you were a this is easy. If you were a cookie, what flavor would you be? Toilet chip. Yeah. I didn't even have to tell you the other ones. And finally, if you were living in a movie, what character would you want to be? This one was hard. The protagonist. What is that? Like the main character? Yeah, I think so. I should know this. That's actually what I think I meant to choose earlier. The protagonist, the villain, the funny best friend, the love interest, the sarcastic older sibling, or the mentor. Protagonist, villain, funny best friend, love interest, the sarcastic older sibling, the mentor.

SPEAKER_00

Protagonist, I guess.

SPEAKER_03

We got the same. Your bubblegum core. And it shows a picture of bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls. And it says, You're a total sweetheart. Your aesthetic is a bubblegum core, previously known as soft core. You're a genuine. Why is that previously known? They re rebranded. I guess so. Bubblegum core? I don't know. I don't know what the I have no idea. You're a genuine down-to-earth person. You're always the first one to offer your friends a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on. Some people might call you sensitive, but you've just got a massive heart. Oh my gosh. That is so spot on. So on the nose. Just kidding. I guess it's very vague. Yeah. That was kind of a dumb quiz. I well, we're bubblegum core.

SPEAKER_02

I do love gum. I do love gum too.

SPEAKER_03

I thought it was gonna be more so like the aesthetic. Yeah. I don't know. Like. Yeah, I didn't know that was an aesthetic. Which I should have I should have just had you take this other quiz. What would you do? What would you no? I don't think I'm gonna do it because that was like too much time of people just listening to us doing stuff. But what what do you think like your aesthetic is? I don't know. Like if you were to design your home, like if you had a home right now, like what things do you want to see around you? Um light colors, I like pastellies, aquas. Is that what you're asking? I don't know. I don't really know what I'm asking. Like light, bright, airy, and also mature but fun. Yeah. Where would you like your like life to be if it was like your dream life? Like look like actual location? Yeah, like like where would I want to live? I feel like that says a lot about your life. Well, I would live anywhere by the ocean. I do like coastal Carolina, I think that'd be a cool vibe. Or like West Coast Florida. Yeah. Like East Coast too, but only like South Florida, but like when you close your eyes and you picture like you and your family and like this dream life you had, like where? Probably coastal Carolina, North Carolina. And what are you doing? Like riding bikes? Yeah, riding bikes, bringing my kids to the beach, we're surfing. Well, once I learn how again.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Just chilling in the sand. And did you say blues in your house? Love. So like a little beach cottage, if you will. I would love a beach. Or would you rather like more I don't know the difference, like cottage or bungalow? I would love a bungalow. Yeah. Or a beach cottage. I don't know. Either way. I feel like you're me making up my own quiz. Those were the questions. So your results are in. Results are in. Here's the envelope when you're ready. I feel like you are very like laid back, chill vibe. I feel like the colors you lean toward are fun, but like also muted. Like a light pinkish coral. Yes, I love blue, like sunset aqua vibe. Yeah. I feel this. I'm self-conscious about this. I'm so self-conscious about this episode. Because yeah, who cares? But it's just fun to talk about. But comment down below what your vibe is. Yep, down below, guys. Them like in their car, like typing something like on their thing. I feel like my aesthetic is like Well, where do you where would do you see yourself living your dream life? That's the issue. I don't really know. Like, my perfect dream life would be like the New England states, but South. Because for certain reasons, I don't feel like I could fit in. Like, I don't know. I just feel like the political views are a little bit different than mine up there. And like I would just feel like a fish out of water, maybe. And I feel like I love the New England state vibe, but I want it to be a little bit less pretentious. I don't know if pretentious is a word, because I do like that whole lore of it all. Like I love like how I don't know, like those mansions were up in Rhode Island, and like there's just so much money up there. I think that's so cool. But I don't have that. So I would feel like a brokey. For lack of a better term. Yeah. So it's like maybe if I close my eyes, I imagine myself on like a farm with I didn't, I don't want like the white farmhouse. I just want like a cool house. I don't want it to be like a new build. I want it to be an old. I don't even know. I really don't even know like what aesthetic because I do I do like like an old house, but I also love like just like a redone old house. Like a Santa Barbara Mediterranean house. And like it doesn't go. I think that you should just mesh all the things that you like. Yeah. And then it creates your own aesthetic. You doesn't have to be. I feel like we already talked about this before with your aesthetics and like my rules that I set for myself. It's my it's the work phone. Are you supposed to answer that? No. Not at 6 p.m. I don't know. You always be working. I don't know what I was saying. Oh yeah, but like mesh them all. Yeah, it doesn't have to be just like Mediterranean or whatever. Like everything, and then it's yours, and people will it that's what makes it unique. That's true. I want like a Mediterranean home, but not like I want Mediterranean bones. I don't want it to be like a fully themed with and look like it's I don't know.

unknown

I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

I just want like a simple like stucco home with like beams and a lot of natural wood and archways, but I want that near the beach. Like I would love California, but again, I don't know if I belong there. Like a beach cottage on land is what I was possible. Where? California, Florida. I don't know where in Florida. Around the Vero Beach area. You're just saying that from that real seeing a bunch of things. Like do you want the beach and land? That's everywhere in Florida though. Like, yeah, I guess. You can like like think of Anna Maria. Like you drive, I don't know, 20 miles back, and that's not true. It's not 20 miles, but it's all the same kind of farmland, which I do like Florida farmland, but I want like I want to live on like a what kind of animal? Like a cliff. I want I'm kind of scared of cows. I would love horses, ducks. I want like a beautiful French garden. Just cottage core, but not necessarily a cottage, but kind of. A meta like an Italian cottage. Okay. That's what I would love. I've been also wanting to get ducks, so maybe I'll do that. Have you seen those ducks that are just like standing? What are they called? It's like a certain type of duck and they stand tall. My friend Rachel, I saw a video on them, and my friend Rachel, she has some too. But they don't fly, they just like walk and waddle around your garden. That's what I want. I feel like my aesthetic though, I feel like it doesn't match my vibe inside. Does that make sense? I don't really know what I'm trying to say. Like you, I feel like you're like laid-back beach girl through and through.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

I want a slow life, but I feel like I am a psycho. But I'm also too anxious to live in a city, nor do I. I think a farm life would be perfect. You can work and have something to do all the time. Work with my hands. Yeah. She's a proverb 31 woman. You know. Except don't want to mess up my nails. But I uh I do like being outside and like working. Like whenever I come to y'all's house, like me washing the windows the other day and like I don't know, getting a rake and moving dirt around. It was so much fun for my soul. I love being barefoot. So maybe that's why I need a slow life because I'm so like wound up. Wound tightly inside. Maybe we need we should have done more research on why we are the way that we are. Birth order. I don't know what that is. Order you were born in. Oh, like for siblings? Oh. Firstborn. Always up. Tight, rude, mean. The secondborn is like perfect. And such and such. Yeah. You need to go into the small print with the such and such. Read the fine print. I'm joking. But no, I feel like the firstborn is always a little bit more type A. Yeah, but also, like, for example, tonight recording this podcast. We said it was like 4 37. You're like, yeah, we could be there at five. I called you. You're still at work. Or no, I called you at 451. Whenever I was on my way here. You were still at work. And I'm like, how are you getting here in eight minutes? Wait, like, how are you supposed to get here at five when I just heard the phone ring at work? And you weren't here at five. I was here six minutes later. I'm just saying, like. What does that have to do with anything that we're talking about? That's why I that's why I am the way I am. Because you are the way you are. No. That's you projecting your problems onto me. What problems? I made it here at five.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

I just feel like with younger siblings, like. Why didn't you guys make it on why were you 20 minutes late last night? That was not on me. Who was it on? It was on dad. We did call dad at 4 20. What we're talking about is we went out to that golf place last night. The reservation was at 6. 20 minutes late. We were 15 minutes. No, we were 18? No. We were 14 minutes late. But we went, we had a reservation at 6. Me and my mom got there. And we called dad at 420 when you guys, I forgot you had to like leave pretty soon from y'all's house to get out there. We're like, hey, what are you doing? He's like, oh, taking a nap. Like, huh? She's like, why is he sleeping right now? And actually, like getting frustrated because I just woke him up. Like, y'all should have been like in the car and well, I was getting ready, and Isaiah was getting ready. I don't know. I didn't know what he was doing. And then he's like, whoa, I didn't realize what time it was. That's because you were sleeping. And I I texted everyone in the family chat and I said, What time do we need to be leaving? No one answered me. M A P S. I didn't even know what time the reservation was. I don't know. And not to blast you, but I feel like I'm type A. I'm not even type A because honestly, my house is a wreck right now. I'm somewhere in the middle, but I feel like that's birth order. Like I feel like that's the older sibling in a lot of cases. The older sibling is what more responsible? In some cases. Okay. In most of them. I'm not saying in this case, but I'm saying in most. I can't. Like, I try to be better and be more rememberful. What do you call that? I feel like we're gonna get blasted pretty soon for our vocabulary. I don't know what it's called to be like full of remembrance. I don't know. Yeah, but I mean I can't remember what I can't remember. Can't remember what I forget. And that's a word. Period. On that note, we're just rambling at this point. This episode was kooky, and you basically just listened to Elizabeth. We were gonna have Amber Dick, but I I I vetoed that midway through this. Comment down below if you want to hear Amber Take a quiz next week. No, I will, yeah. I you know what I have been wanting to do, and we kind of talked about this in Bible study, but I think it would be a fun idea to kind of go through like women in the Bible. And like Esther and Ruth and like Hannah, and like kind of like, I don't know, a little excerpt from each, not a whole sermon sermon or anything. Not a heart murmur. Yeah, anyways. Um, but I think that would be kind of fun if we did that. Yeah. So comment below what you want. I just like saying that. We're gonna leave you to it now. Go on and get to on scram. We love you guys. And we hope you listen to us next week. Goodbye. Love you.
