Full show transcript:
Hey, Josh. Hey. You know what was really exciting this weekend that we didn't get to in the show, but that deserves a little bit of chitchat? What? The new vegetables that are growing from seed that I'm very excited about.
That is exciting. I've got marigolds that I'm growing from seed. I've got radishes coming up. I saw broken soil where the beans are. There's little greenery coming up where the peas are at.
I'm so excited. I'm excited about your excitement. It's been adorable. I love it. Little gardens coming together.
It's cute. Hey. It's Monday, May 12. Limericks and women's checkups. They now can you write a limerick about a woman's checkup?
Absolutely. Let's hear that. Well, I'll need some time. I can't do it on the spot. Okay.
Alright. Okay. But, I mean, I should've you should've asked me this earlier. There was a woman who needed a checkup, and that's and that's the first line. Good job.
Good start. Yeah. Good luck rhyming checkup. You just rhyme it with up. You're gonna need a little bit more because checkup is the whole last word.
It's alright. Don't worry about it. Hey. Daryl Hall hates yacht rock, and don't even talk to him about it. Maybe he shouldn't have made so much yacht rock.
He is fired up. Do you like the story about the guy who doesn't shower enough? Ew. No, gross. It's a good story.
It's the not rushing your teeth. That's the one that I went, nope. Well, he does sometimes. I found out the, Los Angeles twenty twenty eight Olympic games are gonna have a an opening ceremony first. They usually do have an opening ceremony first.
Yeah. No. Not first in order of things. It's a it's the first time this thing has happened at an opening ceremony. Gotcha.
Yeah. Come on. Of course, the opening ceremony is first. It usually does come first. Yeah.
Alright. That was a bad joke, and I got you. Mom jokes are the bomb jokes. We are dressed too impressed for prom this weekend. I think we're looking pretty snazzy.
Pretty sharp, I'd say. Yeah. Don't you just love it when you find a giant mess right after you finish cleaning? I don't. I don't love it.
No. I spend a lot of hours cleaning up a highway only for it to be completely trashed with water bottles. But it's not that guy's fault. I well, I don't know what happened. I'm not happy to.
Hey. Thanks for finding cleaning your side of the room. And the communal space also. Okay. Alright.
Could you pick out your kids' feet from a lineup? No. I could. No. I could not.
Absolutely could. Nope. How many have you ever painted Emery's toenails? No. Why?
Why would I paint her toenails? She does a fine job herself. Yeah. I know. You should.
I've done it before. Okay. I'm gonna go, Emery. Let me paint your toenails. No.
Why not? That's strange. This cute dad daughter is me. It's okay. Oh, wonderful advice from first graders.
They know way more than they let on. And the coaches for The Voice season 28 Yeah. Have been announced. Isn't that crazy? That's insane.
We are Josh and Chantel. This is wake up classy 97, the podcast. Hope you enjoy today's show. Yeah. Me too.

Get checked up. That's right. It's National Women's Checkup Day. Yep. Mine usually comes in July.
Is that right? Yeah. And to keep it because you get it. My insurance covers That makes sense. Once a year.
That makes sense. So July is usually when I go. Well, good. But you've already got your appointment set? No.
You just set that appointment? You know what? I'm I'm scared to go to the doctor because I have high blood pressure. Oh. And I'm supposed to talk about it with my doctor Yeah.
But I haven't yet. But I've gone to see some other doctors. Mhmm. And they said, oh, have you talked to your, primary care physician about your high blood pressure? And I say, nope.
And they said, maybe you should do that. And I go, mhmm. Uh-huh. Let me get on that. K?
So yeah. Do you like, do you like a good limerick? Sure. We're just changing topics. Yeah.
K. Let's do it. It's it's limerick day. K. Have you ever, written one of these?
I'm sure I have in school. Okay. Well, here's one. There was a young fellow named Lear who penned limericks or so we hear. So now we converse in humorous verse on Limerick Day every year.
Yeah. Oh. Isn't that great? There once was a man named Josh. Mm-mm.
There wasn't. Who I'll need some time. Yeah. You will. A little early.
There was a young lady whose chin resembled the point of a pin, so she had it made sharp and purchased a harp and played several tunes with her chin. See? See? You didn't make that one up. No.
I'm reading this. Okay. Anyway, a limerick. Wow. They're sing songy, and, and they have a a bit of a a pattern to them, don't they?
And they're a bit humorous. They should be. They should be a little bit punny. Yeah. Or funny.
I don't know. Anyway, have a limerick. Have yourself a Monday, and thanks for being here. Have yourself a Monday. Yeah.
It's Josh and Chantel, and we are live. We are live. That's right. It's go time, baby. Okay.
You heard the term yacht rock? Sure. I know yacht rock. Yeah. What's what would you how would you define yacht rock?
Music to listen to on your yacht. Oh, is that what you do? I don't have a yacht. Me neither. But that's what yacht rock is.
Yeah. It's It's like a go ahead. Go ahead. No. You.
No. No. You say. Say. You say.
It's like a calm, relaxing Okay. Like, you kick up your boat shoes. Alright. It can be compared to dad rock. No.
They're totally different. Are they? Yeah. They're one and the same. I'm not No.
Okay. No. Very different. Dad rock is more of like a like a Def Leppard is a dad rock. Nope.
What's Def Leppard then? Def Leppard would fall into a classic rock category. Dad rock is Creed, Nickelback. That sort of, like, two thousands, rock Got it. Is what makes, dad rock.
Okay. Yacht rock is a retroactively defined music genre comprising the smooth soft rock of the late seventies and early eighties. Hollow notes. Hollow notes. Also Christopher Cross.
Chris Your buddy Michael McDonald. Aw. Steely Dan is in there. Michael McDonald is the worst. Okay.
Forget you know. I mean, Don't sing that. It'll be stuck in my head all day. Forget. Uh-huh.
Daryl Hall Yes. From Hollow Notes Uh-huh. Hates hates the term yacht rock. Does he? Yeah.
He has some really strong feelings about it. Okay. His quote, people always come up with this kind of crap. Soft rock and yacht rock and all this other nonsense. And none of it none of it really describes anything I do really.
Well He says it's a joke, and he said a lot of bad words. Kiss on my list is on the list of songs that you can enjoy and yacht rock. Don't say that out loud. He'll hear you. Oh, good.
Darryl Hall is mad. He doesn't want you to call his music yacht rock. Mhmm. Now is Darryl Hall the one with the mustache? Did they both have mustache?
Question. I don't think they both did. Let me see. Daryl Hall. Look at you.
Uh-huh. Which one is which? Do we know? Daryl Hall is the lighter hair. Oh.
And John Oates is the one with the ripping mustache. And and the curly perm. Curly black. And even today wears the curly perm and, it's not not as serious a mustache. His mustache isn't ripping like it was.
No. Oh, Daryl Hall is so mad. Don't tell him that his music is yacht rock. Well, it is. There's a hospital in Green Bay, Wisconsin that's celebrating a baby boom.
14 of the registered nurses who work in the maternity ward are expecting babies of their own. At the same time? I don't know how far apart any of the, any of If I was birthdays are gonna be. There. I would be so nervous.
Right? The timing of all this, what they're calling baby fun is perfect. Yesterday was Mother's Day. Baby mania. And today is the last day of National Nurses Week.
So, yeah, it's a it's a crazy time over there. Yeah. I would be so nervous if I was like, hey. Hey. Hey.
Hey. I'm a patient here. Who's gonna help me in my time of year? Amy Barton, who is the director of the women and infant center at the hospital, called the situation incredible It is incredible. And full circle, noting that many of the nurses are about to become first time moms.
And all of the moms to be have something else to look forward to. Because when the time comes, the nurses who are also expecting, will be cared for by their own colleagues. So they Oh. They're gonna be, you know, surrounded by their friends and coworkers as they're going through the process altogether. Sweet.
Yeah. And all those little babies are gonna be growing up together. Yeah. They'll be going to those company picnics. Mhmm.
14 of the registered nurses in the maternity ward Baby. Expecting babies. Yeah. Something's going something's in the water in Green Bay, Wisconsin. I don't think that's it.

Days away. You got your dancing shoes ready? No. You said you did. Oh, they they haven't arrived.
They're not here yet. Is that a problem? Well, kind of. Okay. Because what if they don't fit?

Here's a story for you. I think you're gonna like this one. Am I? I don't know. You're probably gonna be grossed out.
But Probably. That's, that's okay. Let's hear it. There's an influencer who shared, with her followers what led to her breakup with her boyfriend. She says that her ex described himself as an urban wild man.
K. Would you like to know what that means? I would like to know what that means. Sure. Seems he connected with nature, which I connect with nature.
I like nature a lot. I like spending time outside. I like nature a great deal. Yes. This is too much.
What did he do? Well, he didn't wear deodorant, and he only showered once a week. And when he did shower, he didn't use soap or shampoo, and he didn't brush his teeth every day because he believed the body self regulates. No. No.
No. No. No. No. No.
No. No. Listen. What's the point of taking a shower if you're not gonna use soap and shampoo? That seems redundant.
You're just Wet. Hosing yourself down. Yeah. What? Gross.
And then you'll just smell like a wet dog. Well, maybe that maybe you did. No. And the brushing teeth thing? No.
I'm out. She said the strong odor and lack of basic self care became a major issue. Yeah. It's really hard to be around him in closed spaces. Yeah.
She said I didn't feel comfortable with the smell, the constant sweat, and we naturally grew distant. You think? I can't I can't be near you because you stink, bro. I mean, it's basic hygiene. Right?
It is really basic. It's not difficult. But it's not like she's saying wear cologne and and do a whole beauty regimen thing. She just simply wanted you to brush your teeth teeth. Shower soap.
With some soap. That's it. Yeah. It's pretty easy. Yeah.
And you they make all kinds of soaps. She didn't say what kind of soap. You wanna use a charcoal soap? You wanna use some natural soap? Great.
Awesome. Goat soap. Goat oil, dude. They make, yeah, they make natural soap. Yeah.
You don't have to use some, you know, chemical soap or anything. I mean, you probably should the first go around just to catch up. But then after that, maintenance mode, my guy. You know? I was being a little bit lazy yesterday, and I didn't brush my teeth till I mean, it was, like, afternoonish, but we were lounging about doing nothing.
And I finally went, I can't even handle myself anymore. I got to go brush. Ew. I was, like, rubbing my tongue over my teeth. Mhmm.
I couldn't couldn't deal. Fuzzy? Yeah. Ugh. Gross.
It's just your body, doing its natural thing. What is it? Self regulating. Self regulating. That fuzzy feeling is your body self regulating.
What does that even mean? My body is self regulating. Yeah. Leave me alone. Look.
I mean, to be fair, soaps and lotions and potions and all this stuff didn't exist back in the caveman days. So yeah. I'm sure they found But ways. Neither did compound sugars and all of the processed foods and everything else that we consume. So Exactly.
I don't know. Anyway, they broke up. So I don't blame her. I'm on her side. You think?
Yeah. Go to I think everyone's on her side. Go find somebody better. I'm sure he's a lovely guy. Sure.
Just wash yourself. Wash yourself. It's not hard. Every other week, no soap, no sit no shampoo? I feel like teeth brushing.
It's every other day. It's fine. Every other day. You can you can handle that. Apparently, he can't.
Yesterday was Mother's Day. That is correct. You made crepes As requested. Delicious on your Blackstone. Yes.
There was a little bit of a worry for a minute because it was raining. I cooked them in the rain. You did? And it was a little bit romantic. Oh, was it?
I didn't even know. I wanted to eat outside, but it did start to pour a little bit. And so I stood Under the eve. Under the eve so that I could stay dry, and I ate while also continuing to help you with whatever you needed. We have, this really cool thing at our house.
It's a dining room window, that we pass all of the stuff through because the door to the backyard is on the side of the house, not the back of the house. And so it's just easier to take the screen off and and work it like a drive through. It's a drive through window, and it works great. It serves the purpose. So the kids sitting inside, we're like, hey.
You got food done? Pass it on through the window. Here we go. So you were kind of the in between there. I do need to wash that window.
I noticed yesterday, like, oh. Oh. Oh. You mean sweet? And savory.
Savory. Because, again, as requested. So delicious. Ugh. I wanted more, but I felt bad because you were cooking in the rain.
Yeah. I had more stuff. I should've I'd You should've said. You were cooking in the rain, and I felt bad. My favorite thing oh, and then I read a little bit.
I did some weeding in the garden. I took a little nap. I kinda wanted to be left alone, which our kids are old, so they Right. Easy. They leave us alone anyway.
The one person who did not leave me alone, the one thing The person. That did not leave me alone small person. Was the dog. Right? Your your little shadow buddy.
Goes everywhere you go. That was fun. Loved that. Was she calm and laid down and and relaxed? Sure sure she did.
I don't think we're being serious. That dog is nuts. She's a wind up. Still. She hates the hose.
So when I was watering the garden, she attacked the hose. Right. And I got mad and frustrated, and I Shook it at her? Shook it at her. So she was wet.
I was like Which she loves for some reason. My favorite part is our kids are so different. Emery, bright and early was like, happy mother's day. You're awesome. I love you so much.
That's nice. And then back, I said That's while I was cooking. Isn't that happened? Yeah. Great.
Back, I go, hey. Good morning. Morning. It's Mother's Day. Oh, happy Mother's Day.
Oh. That's funny. Then later, the three of us were standing in the kitchen, me, Beck, and Emery. Yeah. And I said, hey, guys.
I just want you to know, I'm happy to be your mom. I think you guys are pretty cool, and I like hanging out with you, and you're great people. And I like being your mom. And Emery said some really nice things in return. And I kinda looked at back, like, hey.
You have anything to say? And he was like, I don't like giving compliments. And then he walked away. Yes. And then he walked away.
Away. Away. I don't like giving compliments. See you. Yeah.
That's my kid. What? It's, done my job as a mom with that one. Be Mother's Day. I don't like giving compliments.
I mean, I don't weird. Wanna do it. Feels weird. It's I mean, it it's honest. And then that is everything Beck is.
He is never gonna pretend to be something he's not. Look. I I could do it, but I don't want to. But I don't want to. Yeah.
And I am not going to. Interesting. That was a lovely Mother's Day. I got to do everything I wanted to do. It was it was lovely.
Took a nice relaxing bath to escape from the dog. Would that worked out. I finally had a chance where I was like, no. I'm gonna go outside and read. Yeah.
I'm gonna just curl up in my chair. Yeah. We have these nice cushy chairs on the deck. Right. And she was like, I'm gonna come with you.
And I said, no. You're not. Shut the door in her face. I was like, you're I'm a time out from you. And she was kinda whining like, hey.
Hey. Hey. We've been best friends all day. Right. Why am I in here?
And you're I can't see you. Where are you? I know you're around. Sat outside for about five minutes, and it really started to rain. And I went, cool.
This has been great. Inside I go back with the dog. Well, happy Mother's Day. Thanks. Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.
Hope you had a great day. The Olympics will return to The US in 2028. They're gonna be in LA. Yeah. And there are a lot of different locations around the city.
They're gonna be host to some of these, different challenges, games, and, sports and all that kind of stuff. Okay. It looks like two different stadiums, the Coliseum and the SoFi Stadium. The Coliseum? They have a coliseum in LA.
Yeah. It's called the Coliseum. Uh-huh. And did not know that. SoFi Stadium, which is the football, arena Yes.
Will they will host the opening ceremony. It's the first time that the opening ceremony will be, held at two separate venues, and they're both going to be part of the opening ceremony. I don't know how it all worked, but they've got a big idea, apparently. Logistics, man? Yeah.
I don't like logistics. I will like, I wonder if it'll, like, start at one and then the torch moves to another and and, you know, through the city of LA or how they're gonna do it. It'll be interesting to see. Do you know how many meetings they have to have So many. To prepare for all of this?
You know how many meetings they've already had? A meeting nightmare. Yeah. Yeah. Ugh.
Do you like meetings? No. Join the, the Olympic planning committee. Like logistics? Yeah.
No. You like figuring things out schedule wise? No. Do I For millions of people? Appreciate that people do maybe whether or not they do enjoy it or whatever.
They still do it and get it done? Yes. Well and and there are so many different other facilities that you have to have in place in order to host. And, again, Salt Lake City is gonna be a host city, for the winter games in '35. I think '34.
Woah. One of them. I'm gonna be old What? In '35. That's only ten years.
Four. No way. Old? Yeah. That feels old.
That's good. It's the 2034. Yeah. Yeah. Twenty thirty four winter games.
No. I still feel like a kid. That's and you still will then. I brought it up. So, anyway, they have to build other facilities because I'm thinking about, like, Olympic Village, right, where all the athletes stay.
Yeah. That if if you don't have that already, you have to build that and accommodate all of those athletes. And then what did they do with all of that when all of the athletes leave and all of the fans and tourists leave? Well, so they do with it? So look at Salt Lake City.
Right? The the torch and everything, was done at the University of Utah, stadium. Mhmm. Then the torch still stands there. The downhill skiing event was held at Snowbasin.
Okay. And they had to build part of the mountain to get enough vertical for that. So that still exists, and you can take the little gondola up to that and and cruise down some of the steepest hill ever. No. Thanks.
What do they do with the lodging? I imagine they probably anything that they build, they would want to build so that after they were done, it was able to be used. Reused? Yeah. I I think That would make the most sense.
America and and and more populated areas, I think that's the case. But when they've hosted in, like, when they hosted in Argentina and Venezuela and different places like that, I think they get a little bit different, like, when Russia hosted, when Korea like, there's been different Beijing is where it was, not Korea. When they've done, those hosting, they've had struggles with the facility upkeep and what do they do with them afterward or whatever. But, anyway Interesting. Yeah.
Logistical nightmare. Meetings upon meetings. Yeah. LA twenty twenty eight summer games, and it will be hosted the opening ceremony will be hosted in two different, places for the first time. '28, you said?
2028. Yes. K. Three whole years away. Huzzah.
Yeah. You got three years. Figure it out. You think traffic will be better? No.
No. No. We did some, prom outfit shopping. Yeah. A little prom prep over the weekend.
I saw a brown dress, and I said, hey. This could be the trunk of the tree that I'm gonna be Yeah. As the theme is intended for us. You said. You went, oh, look.
It's brown like a tree. Like a tree trunk. Like a tree. And then I saw some green dresses that would work. I really liked the green dresses.
You harshly said no to both of those. That's not I didn't harshly say anything about the green one. Yes. You did. I wasn't even near you when you pointed it out.
No. You were, and you said that's a lot of green. I think you misheard Emery and thought that was me. No. I really like taking Emery shopping because she's very honest.
Yeah. Not in a rude way, but No. She she tells me what it is. She tells me how it is. We we were you were in the fitting room, and, we were sitting in the chairs, and you went, Emery.
Come here, Emery. And she goes like this. She goes, Oh, no. I said she probably needs help with the zipper or something. And here she goes.
She goes, okay. I think she was just excited to sit down. So I don't think it was that she didn't wanna help you. It was that she was like, I'm sitting. Oh, teenager.
And so she got up and she helped you. And, and then you called me over, and I went, yeah. That's nice. Okay. What else you got?
Yeah. You didn't like the first one I tried. Right. She makes me laugh because she goes like, because I said, what do you think about this one? She goes, how do I say this without being mean?
I said, just say it. I want your full Is it about the first one you tried on? No. It was the second one Okay. That I didn't care for.
You liked that one, but I was not bad. She goes, and I said, okay. It's a no go. You don't even need to say more. That said a lot, didn't it?
It did. That's funny. I did settle I tried on three dresses. Yeah. And I settled on the third one.
Yeah. Not settled. No. I like the third one. I feel comfortable in it.
The third one. It's Yeah. Because you wanna be you have to sit down in it. You have to move it. Sense.
You gotta be able to dance. You gotta check it out from every angle to make sure it looks okay. It does. Good. It looks good.
It's fun. It has nothing to do with an enchanted forest, but that's okay. Right. No. You you look great.
So I, went home and looked at the stuff I have, and I went, alright. I've got this piece and this piece and this piece, and then decided, you know, maybe this isn't it. Let's go look and see what else we can find. So we stopped by a couple of spots. I found some very nice pants for $20.
I love it when I find a deal. I really do. Everybody does. But it really it makes me feel good. Like, I spent $20 on, like, a $70 pair of pants, and I feel pretty good about that.
My favorite part about shopping with you I don't enjoy shopping with you because you have to you have to find the deal, and you gotta, look at everything and try everything on. I'm like, yeah. This looks good. Let's go. And you say, but you haven't even tried it on.
It doesn't matter. Let's just go. Right. You bought we went to the store for you to get you kinda just were looking for a sport jacket. You had all the other pieces.
You just wanted to get a sport jacket. Right. And then you said, should I get some pants? Well, when we finally found a jacket, I went, is this gonna look good with my black pants? And then Or should I have the whole matching jacket and pant situation?
And then, yeah, I think I'll get some pants. And then should I get a shirt also? I know. And that it created a whole look. Like, the three piece suit?
Situation. Well, not three pieces. It's not a vest. It's just a jacket and pants and a shirt. Three pieces, isn't it?
Well, it's three pieces, but the shirt doesn't count in the three piece suit. It's usually the vest that matches the rest. And they should call it a four piece suit. Have to rhyme so much? That rhymed a lot.
I don't know. Well, it's a three piece suit. Your shirt doesn't count as part of a suit. Four piece suit. But the shirt doesn't count.
I know, but it should. The suit. Then what? Everyone's just going out with no shirt and just a vest? No.
They should call it It's a three piece suit and a shirt. Just call it a four piece suit. Not. If you don't have a vest, then you'll call it a three piece suit. A two piece suit.
It's a jacket and pants. Get with the times. Dump. That is dumb. Yeah.
I did end up with a with a new suit, which I think, is gonna be pretty okay. I think it looks great. Yeah. They had some interesting choices. You could have walked away with a velvet suit jacket.
That was one option. That feels enchanted for us. The blue one? You didn't like the blue one with the black trim that sort of looked like lightning? No.
It not when I say lightning, I think about, like, that Garth Brooks type shirt with the lightning on it. It's not that. That would have been cool. No. No.
That would have been a look. It would have been a look. It was more subtle than that. It you know what it kinda looked like? What?
It sort of looked like, water. How, like, water will have those lines on it. Yeah. That's that's fair. I didn't like it.
Yeah. I know. I'm glad you didn't pick that one. I heard all about it. The the crazy thing was, apparently, I'm the size of everyone.
Yeah. You couldn't find the right size jacket. There's every size that isn't my size. In on clearance racks and on regular sale racks, If you want if you're the size of me, enjoy your suit because you already bought it, and I didn't. That's why I something that works, and that looks nice.
I haven't, fully put it on. I should do that. Yeah. Fashion show. Fashion show.
Fashion show at lunch. Well, okay. Maybe. We'll see. Put yours on.
I'll put mine on. Yeah. And we'll see how they look together. Prior to prompt. That'd be a good idea.
That is a good idea. I gotta find out when my shoes are sitting there. Oh, yeah. You still gotta get your dancing shoes. Anyway, we we are prom dressed.
Prom. We're prom dressed. Thumbs up. Thumbs up, bud. Check it out.

And then, you can join us. We're also doing something very kinda cool this year at the Farmers Market. When you stop by the booth, the Riverbend Media Group booth, we want to support the community.

This month, we are supporting the community food basket in Idaho Falls.
So you can drop off nonperishable food items at our booth, and we're gonna deliver those, to the food basket when we're all done.

We know that during the the fall and the winter, a lot of attention is given to the need for food, but that need is year round. And so we wanna do something, in the spring slash summer, to help out. So I love it.

I will be there nine to noon with free prom tickets, but you can stop by and make your, nonperishable food donation, and you can get your prom tickets, and you can check out the market.
It's gonna be awesome. It is gonna be awesome because the Farmers Market is awesome. And it it's like from Broadway all the way down to is that D Street? I think so. Yeah.
No. No. I'm pretty sure that's D Street on, on Memorial. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. So I think you're right. From Broadway to the roundabout, that whole stretch has got over a 70 different booths. It's awesome. It is awesome.
Lots of people, lots of dogs, lots of fun. Smells. Mhmm. Good ones. Good one.
Yes. Yeah. We'll see you at the Farmer's Market on Saturday. You know what I spent the weekend doing? Not the weekend.
I spent Saturday morning doing? Spent a couple of hours. Yeah. Saturday morning. This is this is the worst.
I I don't know. Saturday morning, the the scout troop that I'm a scout master for, we have a section of highway that we've adopted, that we clean every year. It happens to be section on Highway 26 by Swan Valley. And, and we had a a good group of, scouts and leaders out there on Saturday. We're doing our annual highway cleanup.
Mhmm. And, it was great. We did 18 bags of garbage. That's awesome. Yeah.
Good job, guys. Got that done on Saturday. And you found some surprises. Yeah. I mean, here's what you find most most often.
Animal carcass. Yeah. That's that's a a typical thing you find on that stretch. And, I'm gonna tell you and car parts. And way, way too many bottles and cans of alcohol that are empty.
It it's a troubling amount. Yeah. Not cool. It's very, very, very troubling, the amount of alcohol that is thrown out empty bottles that are thrown out of moving vehicles. It's incredibly dangerous.
Yeah. It is. And and gross to clean up and everything else. But we clean it up. You found a line of tippet or A small spool of tippet.
Yes. For sure. There's probably a yard and a half of tippet on the side. What are the odds? I mean, it I'm pretty pretty high.
Oh. Because there's a lot of fishing, and moving boats along that stretch of highway. Highway cleanup for years. That's the first time you've seen tippet. You're correct.
And it's a it's an old, dusty, gross little spool, but I did find a tiny little spool of a yard and a half of Tippett, which is neat. But here's here's the deal this morning. Here's the here's the news story that I'm that I'm reading about. This happened around 04:30 this morning. A semi truck crashed, veered off the highway, hit a tree and the side of the mountain.
Dozens, I would say, hundreds of water bottle containers have spilled across the road. The road, does have that lane closed, and they're kind of averting traffic through a one lane situation. So if you're traveling, US 26 near Swan Valley today Be patient. There's a thing going on, and the authorities are saying it's gonna be closed for a few hours Oh, yeah. While they're cleaning that up.
And, again, this happened at 04:30 this morning. The story, that I'm reading is a couple of hours old now at this point. So I'd imagine they're probably getting close to finishing cleaning that up. But I'm not even kidding. I'm looking at the pictures.
Hold on. How's the drive? Like, the driver's Oh. Take the the driver was taken to a local hospital via Idaho Falls ambulance. That's all it says.
Okay. So I don't know what happened. It was early in the morning. I do too. Or too.
Yeah. I hope the driver is is okay. I'm not kidding when I tell you that Saturday morning, I was literally standing right where this happened. That's terrifying. Which is terrifying.
Glad I wasn't standing there when this happened. Yeah. I just cleaned this road. Like, I just finished cleaning it. Like And that was screwed about hundreds of water bottles and and stuff all over the road and the mountain.
And, I mean, it's it's a mess. Oh, no. And I know somebody's out there, and they're gonna do their best to clean it up. But I guarantee you, I guarantee a year from now, when we go back to do our Yep. Cleanup, there's gonna be debris and water bottles and stuff we'll be cleaning up, from this from this accident.
It's terrible. It's terrible. It is terrible. Again, there's so many, animal carcass carci carcasses. Carci.
Yeah. On the side of the road. This very likely could have been an animal ran out in the road, and he tried to miss it and ended up in the in in the ditch on the side. It's exactly what you said. Somebody just gets finished cleaning the bathroom.
And then somebody goes in and use it. Oh, I gotta go Yeah. I gotta go use it. No. No one's allowed to use the bathroom.
I just cleaned it. Yeah. Like, literally, Saturday morning, we finished cleaning this road, and now here it is. Unbelievable. I'm I'm I'm really hoping that the driver's okay.
I'm not trying to make light of the accident at all. That's terrifying. The the fact that it is literally where we just finished cleaning. Of debris that's now strewn about after you've picked it clean of debris. So sorry.
I know. That's that's rough. That's so work for hours to get it cleaned. 18 bags of garbage we cleaned off that side of the road, and now here it is needing another 18 bags at least. That's that's a mess.
So, hopefully, everybody's alright. I'll get over the fact that the road is a mess now. Last week, you cleaned your side of the room, meaning that you dusted and you vacuumed your side of the room. That's right. And I, cleaned off, my nightstand, and I took my piles out of the room, and I put them away where they go.
And it looks great. It looked nice. Thought so. You criticized me for missing some dusting, though. You said, by the way, these Well, because weren't dusted, and this wasn't dusted.
To cleaning my side of the room, and I noticed that, your side of the headboard was not dusted. I didn't do that. But I also There were some frames on your side of the room that were not dusted. Right. And you said, well, those are communal spaces.
That's right. Those are communal things. Yeah. Whoever cleans their half last is responsible for those. Mhmm.
Right? Mhmm. This is this is exactly exactly, the same face you gave me when you said this the first time. I when I was dusting my nightstand, my side of the dresser, making my side match your side Yeah. I went, what in the world?
Well You couldn't even be bothered. I mean, I didn't look at it. I didn't even look at it or think about it. So but to but to be fair, I also, did do more than just half of the dresser. I did two thirds.
Oh, just yeah. Got up to where your stuff was. Yeah. You got up to where my stuff was. And I was like, yeah.
I'm gonna call it quits. Yeah. I'm not gonna bother to do her. So I been funny is if I would have traced around items and and just really so you could tell that I stopped at a certain point. Yeah.
That happened. But, I just drew a line. I just went, that'll do. I wonder if we shared a bathroom. We don't have a master bathroom.
We just We talked about that, though. The his and hers sinks. Yours would be not as clean as mine. I think that's a total lie. I think yours would be messier than mine.
No way. Yeah. Wait. Yours would always be wet. This is the conversation that we've had We have had multiple times about the wet sink.
I think I do a better job of cleaning up after myself than you do. Interesting. It is interesting, isn't it? Yeah. I'm a pretty clean bathroom person, though.
Pretty darn clean. Am I. I mean okay. The at at minimum, every day, the curling iron would be out. At minimum.
No. Because I just leave it out so that it cools down, and then I put it away. I always put it away. I don't like stuff hanging out on the counter. I get it.
It's always out. It's always sitting there, and the counter is wet. Those are the two things that I know about. For sure, the curling iron will be out cooling off, and the counter will be wet. Well, just so everybody knows, I I dusted the communal spaces.
Oh, I appreciate that. Even though they weren't on necessarily, quote, unquote, my side. Yeah. Well and I also vacuumed more than just my side. I did go over to where I stopped when I ran into stuff that was on the floor.
Don't bother had you had your boxes of summer clothes that you were putting out and your boxes for winter clothes that you were putting away. Yeah. Don't bother moving them to vacuum. Just stop. Yeah.
Good idea. That's what I did. Yeah. I know. Thanks.
Real helpful. What? You're a team player. Yeah. Gold star.
Hey. The room looks great. Did you know that? I do now. Mhmm.
Because I finished up the job. Did you also do the windowsill? Yes. That's sweet. That's I don't have anything in the windowsill.
It's still part of the room. No. I know. I'm just saying. I don't I don't have anything there, so I didn't have anything to lift up to dust under that was mine in the window.
That's what I'm trying to say. Because the window's on your side of the room. Uh-huh. You know? But the frame's on your side of the room.
You can you can I didn't even look at them? Not surprised. Have you seen those videos where, they have a line of moms, and then the kids have to go and I think the kids are blindfolded, and the kids have to go pick out their mom based on how they feel. So the kids are, like, touching the mom's faces and kind of their hands and smelling them. Okay.
And then the kids ultimately find their mom. I have not seen these. No? Videos? This is how old are these kids?
Like, five and under. Okay. Maybe eight and under. Interesting. It's so cute.
Okay. Alright. It sounds a little creepy at first. At first listen, I'm a little bit like, no. No.
The kids are blind folded, and then they have to go find their mom. Mhmm. And they do because I know their mom. Alright. So I just I love those videos, and they make me cry because they're sweet.
And then I just saw one over the weekend yesterday, and it was kids. The kids Mhmm. Are under tables, and their bare feet are poking out. Okay. And the moms have to come in and find their kid just based on their feet.
Man, could you pick out cute. Could you pick again, little kid feet? Little kid feet. Okay. Teenager feet.
I know. Could you find our kids based on teenager feet? Yes. I absolutely could. Yeah.
I'm good. You know both of our kids' feet that well? Yeah. I'm looking at their feet in my mind right now. I absolutely could.
No. You couldn't, but I could. I don't know the I don't know our kids' feet that well. I could pick at our kids based on the smell of their heads. That's a thing.
That sounds a little creepy. I know. Yeah. But I like the smell of my kids' heads, and I had since they were little. Yep.
Could you, do a little arm bite and be able to tell if it's your kids? Because that's another thing you do. You're you bite arms out of comfort. I don't get it. It's like a cat thing.
No. That's a thing. It's called what's it called? It's called aggressive. Yeah.
Something. It's aggressive. No. No. It's It's called, I'm a bite you.
It's out of love. Biting your kids. Yeah. I'm a bite you. Aggre yeah.
It's not Aggressive affection? Like drawing blood. No. I understand. You're not biting hard, but it's it's what cats do.
You'll be just sitting next to a cat, and then it's like, I'm gonna bite you now. It's a strange thing. It's not strange. It's nice. Okay.
I can't remember what it's called. Anyway, it is called something. Cute aggression. That's what it's called. Cute aggression?
Yeah. The urge to squeeze, bite, or playfully aggress someone you find extremely cute or endearing. Uh-huh. It is a common human response, and research suggests it can be a way to regulate intense emotions. Okay.
So could you do that and pick out our kids? Yeah. No way. Yeah way. Only if they reacted.
They'd be like, that's my mom. They'd be like, oh, there she is. Okay. Hit me again. Again, it's just a I understand.
It's not light. It's not harsh. I do to you all the time too. I know you do. But your knee the other day I know.
I was there. Because I just love you so much. Settle down. Calm down. No.
I could not pick at our kids by their feet. No. I could not pick them out by the smell of their head. No. I could not bite their arm and know who they are.
Someone's better parent than the other. I don't know that that's necessarily, the outcome that I would determine based off of that. It's just that I don't spend a lot of time smelling their heads You don't spend a lot of time their feet. Yes. I do.
What are you talking about? That's teasing. I don't spend a lot of time looking at their feet in case I have to pick them out of a lineup. Yeah. Those feet look familiar.
I told Emery about it last night. I said, do you think that I could pick you out by your feet? And she has gotten really sunburned. She was at track meet. Yeah.
Right now. Terribly sunburned. And she said, well, now because my feet are so sunburned, you'd be able to. How did her feet get sunburned? I'm just now realizing.
Her hands did. I didn't know her feet did. She should have been wearing shoes. That's true. What?
Why did she say that? Either wearing shoes or she was wearing, her spikes, but she wasn't when she got sunburned, she wasn't, jumping that day. So I that makes no sense. Marie. This makes no sense.
No. Why are you going around barefoot? You got some explaining to do. Put your shoes back on. There was a teacher that asked its first graders to come up with life mantras.
Okay. And reading this article, I go, kids know kids have the secret to life. Kids have the secret to happiness. They know exactly how to out of life, and we should take more advice from them. Here's what they delivered.
Here are their life mantras. Only be friends with people who you want to be friends with. Okay. Good. Solid advice.
You can't swim in a sink, but a bath is just a big sink. Yep. The people who don't talk still have something to say. These are all good. These are great.
These are good life lessons. Yes. Some people don't have anything, so be happy you have everything. Some things are cool, and some things are not. Yes.
Last one. Flowers live in the ground. We live in a house. Everyone lives somewhere. Okay.
There you go. I love I love the simplicity of it. I love yeah. Here's how here's how I life. Yeah.
That's how I do life. That's good. Those are good. I like them. You call them mantras.
I mean, I guess you could. They're they're more, That's what the teacher said. Yeah. I mean, I feel like a mantra is something that you repeat to yourself. Okay.
Right? Like, you look in the mirror and you do your affirmations. I feel like that's more of a mantra. Okay. Like, what's the mantra you live by?
Got gotcha. But so I don't know that that's necessarily what I would call them. I call it life advice. I call it, like like, quotables, first grader quotables, you know, or something like that. But it's, it's good.
The the the words are all great. I really like the people who don't talk still have something to say. This is very true. Because sometimes those people who are quiet Yeah. Or sometimes when they do talk, you're like, woah.
That was so profound or funny or amazing. I had a pretty good light bulb moment the first time I realized that people disagreeing with something don't necessarily do it vocally. Their lack of participation is just as loud as somebody disagreeing with it. And that so that was at a leadership training. And I and I hadn't really processed that, like, as an adult that that meant someone was dissatisfied with what was going on in the group, but they may be uncomfortable with either I do that.
Putting themselves out there or whatever. Right. Yeah. I mean, a lot of people will do that. I just associate There's a I'm not regressive thing that happens.
Yeah. So I'm not very vocal when it comes to disagreements. And so that is definitely my, Yeah. Disillusionment. I I step back and I go, I'm not Right.
I'm not gonna be a person. People will say, hey. I don't like con, conflict that much that I'm instead of going to even put any type of conflict out there, I will just not participate. I will remove myself from it. Yep.
And that's a that's a form of of well, it's a huge, form of communication in that. So for a first grader to say, the people who don't speak up still have stuff to say. To say is big. That's a big thing. Sometimes you're just not letting them speak because so many people are opening their mouth so much that there just isn't space for them to speak.
Second lesson that I learned that was really valuable was, sometimes people don't necessarily want help. Yes. Right? They might want to try to figure it out themselves. Let them ask for help.
That's right. And and, I mean, you can see people struggling and you could say, would you like help? I'm here if you would like help, but don't just jump in and help and take the word for it. Correct. I'm gonna do it for you.
Right. I remember that lesson. Yeah. That was a good lesson. Right.
Good lessons to learn. There's plenty of them in life. Yeah. That's a couple for free. For free.

Had both of these. No way. I get cold sores all the time. Yeah. And there was one time in fifth grade where they were surrounding my lip.
Like That's awesome. My lips were covered in them. It was awful. And my mom was afraid to send me to school because she was like, they're gonna send you home because they're gonna think it's something contagious. I go, well, these are contagious.
Right. Hence, where I got them, mom Why did you send me to school? Why didn't you just leave me home? I had to go to school. It was painful.
Yeah. Ugh. So I'm gonna say harshly chapped because the sores are the worst. Terrible. They are air.
They're ugly Yeah. And they're painful. And chapped lips severely chapped lips, like, hurt They do. As well, but it's not a viral thing that you can't get rid of. And they hurt.
