I said, sir, I know there are 201 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: people in the congregation now who are hungry, who might 202 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: even be un housed. It's just like that's just the 203 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: makeup of you know.

Do what you want. But I think 213 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 3: the position of being like a church leader, Yeah, you 214 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: put yourself on this pedestal, and it's like you do, 215 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 3: I think you get held to a much higher standard 216 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 3: I feel like we hold celebrities to a higher standard 217 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 3: than like our religious leaders sometimes in terms of like, oh, 218 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 3: you know that person who tracks Taylor's fwat's private jet 219 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 3: and how much jet fool she feels she's using. And 220 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 3: I'm like, but three for a pastor, like I do 221 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 3: think if I don't know, I wonder what his congregants think, 222 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 3: because I wouldn't feel comfortable. 223 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: Well, some people like a fancy like you know, pastor 224 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: in church. But I just I just brought that up 225 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: because as we're talking about travel and things like that, 226 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: and you think to yourself, like, I don't know, chall 227 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: this is why, you know, I just believed that, you know, 228 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: I go to God for myself, you know, because it's 229 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: just at the end of the day, that's just a man. 230 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: Oh man? Or were they then? And so they are 231 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 1: imperfect infallible, so therefore Yeah. But when he told me that, 232 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: because one, I was already like three fifty, I mean 233 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: two fifty Wow, how much what do you make of 234 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: last year? And he was like, yeah, my Fastor told 235 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: me about it. I said, like, because they had heard 236 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,199 Speaker 1: through the grapevine. He's like, no, no, no, because him and 237 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: his wife they had done it and they're going to 238 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: do it again.

Who what did it ever? I do for 242 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: a living, and I, on my Bengo card wouldn't have 243 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: been a pastor. You know. 244 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 3: State farm agents are small business owners too, so they 245 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: know how to help you choose personalized policies that fit 246 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 3: your needs, like a good neighbor state farm is there? 247 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: Talk to your local agent today. I mean, I just 248 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 3: think it depends on what kind of vacation you want, 249 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 3: because a cruise, a solo cruise, it's almost like you 250 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 3: expect to talk to other people and like meet other 251 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 3: people in chat chat and like is that the vibe 252 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: you want or do you want something more tranquil? And 253 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,599 Speaker 3: I think, like, yeah, some visualization, like where do you 254 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 3: see yourself? Do you want to be alone? Do you 255 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 3: want to be with people? But I love that idea. 256 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 3: I aspire to get there. I don't think this year 257 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 3: is going to be the year, but I would love 258 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 3: to not have so much pressure around the holidays. Last year, 259 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 3: the holidays nearly broke me, and in fact, they really 260 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 3: did break me. I just didn't realize it until five 261 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 3: months later. Okay, yeah, just the Yeah, it's a lot 262 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 3: of pressure. But it's smart to think about it in advance, 263 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 3: I would say, and not to be like. If you 264 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 3: have a mom like mine, she's really trying to get 265 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 3: you to commit to some dates by about September. It's 266 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 3: like when the when the pumpkinspice latte comes out, which 267 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 3: is coming in like the next week or two, because 268 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 3: every year it gets earlier and earlier.

Obviously you had to 333 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: be beautiful girl, damn, but like she's beautiful. 334 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 3: Listen, if you got the free time, that's you know, 335 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 3: like it takes a lot of time, and like not 336 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 3: just the money for that kind of stuff, Like I 337 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 3: really have not had and I'm okay with this. I 338 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 3: have only had one manicure in the last year, and 339 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 3: I only got my nails done because I was going 340 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 3: on a morning show and I was like, I got 341 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: to get my nails and my feet done. And I 342 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 3: just like I used to and I used to go 343 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 3: a lot before I had the baby. And now I'm like, 344 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 3: it's not that I don't value that kind of self 345 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 3: care time, but I just found out that like I 346 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 3: was only doing it for the look, and I really 347 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 3: hated the process, like I didn't like sitting. The only 348 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 3: kind of self care that I enjoyed going and spending 349 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 3: the time, and I feel better having done it. It's 350 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 3: like when I get a massage or a facial because 351 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 3: it is time, you know. But I did think about 352 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 3: the access to those types of like treatments is so 353 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 3: much more available now. It's not as pie in the sky. 354 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 3: Plus groupon I think the groupons are only around now 355 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 3: to give you discounts and that kind of stuff. Yes, 356 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 3: like you shout out to laser hair removal, thank you. 357 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: Does laser hair removal. That's what I do. And I 358 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: just was like, to your right, to your point, it's 359 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: not just money, it's also time, you know. And I 360 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 1: guess depending on what you do for a living, you know, 361 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: because I have friends who are like in the entertainment 362 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: industry and they are, you know, constantly making sure that 363 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: they have to look a certain way in order to 364 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: be able to work. But I just was just thinking 365 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: like wow, because like when does it And this young 366 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: woman was very young, like only in her twenties, and 367 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: I just I guess I keep thinking to myself like 368 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: what does the opportunity cost versus I mean to be 369 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: fair to her, you know her looks for how she 370 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: makes her money. But I thought to myself, what does 371 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: she invest in that? What would that look like? You 372 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: know in ten twenty thirty years, twenty five to thirty 373 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year on like you know her looks, which, 374 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: like I said, to be fair, she uses her looks 375 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: to make money. 376 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 3: That's a slippery slope. The slippery slope because I think 377 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 3: you could point the same finger. I mean, be like, 378 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 3: what how where would my investments be if I spent 379 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 3: three thousand or four thousand dollars and put that in 380 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 3: an index fun every month instead of sending my children 381 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 3: to a bare minimum daycare that cost And there's a 382 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 3: really good I don't know if I know you don't 383 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 3: want you don't want tons of TV, although I would 384 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 3: feel like social media accounts, you get your you cat, 385 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 3: I do get your scrolling, it get I get my 386 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 3: screen time. 387 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 1: It just different. 388 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 3: I know, what's your average screen time on your phone? 389 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 1: Yeah? 390 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 3: No, but there's a show on to Be to Be, 391 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 3: which is northas like free streaming apps. Anyway, I only 392 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 3: downloaded it because my favorite actress is in the show 393 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 3: Nicola Coughlan from Bridgerton. It's called Big Mood and one 394 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 3: of the characters is like two girls in their early 395 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: thirties figuring shit out in London, and one of them 396 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 3: says like, some people choose to have a husband and 397 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 3: a wife and in their thirties, and some people choose 398 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 3: to get high on ketamine, you know, on the weekends. 399 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 3: Both choices are valid. And that's what I just want 400 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 3: to say, because I think everyone we have all this options, yes, 401 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 3: and I look at the girlies who have the disposable 402 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 3: income that I have to dispose of with my kids, 403 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 3: and I'm just like, that's a choice that they made, 404 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 3: good form, you know, and it just makes me feel 405 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 3: like there is so much I could do with that 406 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 3: money if I do have to, you know, pay. 407 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: For Lego's not for a place to judgment, because Lorden knows, 408 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: like you know, I get my nails done now, I 409 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: get my feet done, and brows. I've always got my 410 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: brows done. And I don't do anything to my skin 411 00:19:55,560 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: as of yet because it's African. Is still African, little skin, 412 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: little little you know, basic maintenance at home. But I 413 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: just think about you know, as we're making our choices 414 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 1: about where to put because to her, she probably would say, 415 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: this is an investment, and I can't argue with that 416 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 1: because like I'm a content creator. I show up physically 417 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: like this, this is an investment so I can continue 418 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: to make money. And so it's just like where do 419 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: you place the investment and what return are you looking for? 420 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: And so to me, I think the only wrong way 421 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: to do it is not to consciously make the decision 422 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: about the desired outcome, just to kind of be just 423 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 1: doing it. It's like, no, no, no, no, I'm putting this 424 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand dollars a year in because it generates 425 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: me three four hundred thousand dollars a year. I'm just 426 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: making it that I don't know how much she makes 427 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: versus like I'm just kind of doing the thing because 428 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: I'm doing the thing, you know. Yeah, So no, I 429 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,360 Speaker 1: wasn't an adjudstment. I follow her and I love how 430 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: open she is because she's a black girl, and she 431 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 1: said not enough women and women of color kind of 432 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: share the ends out, the costs, the pros and the 433 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: cons of kind of like this up like this next 434 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,959 Speaker 1: level of beauty maintenance she said, because this hasn't been 435 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: done just secretly. So so some of your faiths are 436 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: doing this. They're like girls, she's lying, she's anybody working 437 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: out no more. This is what they're doing. And so 438 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: I follow her because I love that she breaks down 439 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: the financial aspect of beauty, you know, and so it's 440 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: really interesting, Like, Okay, I didn't know veniers were like 441 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: like a thousand to more plus a tooth.

Because this how happens to be 515 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 3: if the show is airing, when I think it's airing. 516 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 3: This happens to be Black Breastfeeding Awareness Month, which sounds 517 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 3: so specific because it is. It's actually really important because 518 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 3: it's not just that in hospitals that a lot of 519 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,239 Speaker 3: new moms. I think now we're finally getting educational on 520 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 3: how to like breastfeed, but especially among black women who 521 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 3: tend to not have the care and love that we 522 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 3: need in a hospital setting. I think it's really important 523 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 3: to have months like these, and I thought I would 524 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 3: use it to spotlight Elaine Welterrot's new nonprofit called Birth Fund, 525 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 3: which I think we talked about a little bit before 526 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 3: when it first came out. But birth Fund is basically 527 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 3: like an answer to the fact that the healthcare system 528 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 3: is failing black women, especially black mothers. I don't think 529 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 3: that these numbers have truly sunk in yet, but I 530 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 3: just wanted to read some of them. But the US 531 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 3: maternal mortality rate is ten times higher, not just in 532 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 3: other countries, other high income countries, our comparable economies. You 533 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 3: were ten times more likely to die as a mom 534 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 3: in the United States. That is embarrassing, embarrassing and crazy. 535 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 3: Black women, however, are dying at three to four times 536 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 3: the rate of white women during and after childbirth. That 537 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 3: is insane. That is I don't know why. That's not 538 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 3: like a presidential platform we should be running on, like 539 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 3: we have to save the mothers. So I just wanted 540 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 3: to shout out birth Fund. It's founded by one of 541 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 3: my idols, Elaine welter Roth, who is just this phenomenal 542 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 3: former journalist and now everything is so if you want 543 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 3: to check it out, go to thebirthfund dot Com where 544 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 3: you can invest, you can join the community, because it's 545 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 3: really about matching black women, black mothers to doulas and 546 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 3: what's the other thing besides adula midwives who can help 547 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 3: like get you through that process with less trauma. I'm 548 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 3: very lucky because I had a really great like experience 549 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 3: at the hospital that I go to, uh, that I 550 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 3: went to for my two births. But clearly the majority 551 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 3: of or like a lot of women of color who 552 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 3: were giving birth are not having the same experience, and 553 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 3: in fact, it's like threatening our lives. So the birth 554 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 3: fund dot Com. Check it out, and happy National Black 555 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 3: Breastfeeding Month.

I was so happy to pack up 557 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 3: my pump for maybe the last time. 558 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 1: Oh well, I'm going to take just a little lighthearted break, 559 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: brown break because you know, y'all know I've recently moved 560 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: and so when Jrell was here, we had brought like 561 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: a sleep number bed for a bajillion dollars. I want 562 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: to say, we've probably spent around seven thousand dollars. They're 563 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: so freaking expensive. 564 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 3: Damn, that's we got to be like, well, you're going 565 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 3: to sleep on it for one hundred thousand million days, 566 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 3: so it's only eight cents a day. 567 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: And so yeah, and I asked a friend of mine, Leela, 568 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: who does my makeup, you know when I do TV? 569 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: And so I said, Leila, is it worth it? She's like, 570 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: is I? And that's exactly how I feel? So I 571 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: have to disconnect it. There's so many pieces to disconnect 572 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: when you move a sleep number bed, because there's like 573 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: a sleep What makes us sleep number bed quote unquote 574 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: so special is that like it's like a you can 575 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: make it as firm or as dense as you want. 576 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: And so there's like a pump and an air filtration, 577 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: which sounds all good until it's time to move. Also, too, 578 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: there's like a magnetic system that you're almost going to 579 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: lose your life in order to like disconnect. And then 580 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: I had a footwarmer, and so there's like that. It was, 581 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I felt like an engineer. I said, I 582 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: have graduated in NASA. I can now fly to the moon. 583 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: And so because I was nervous, I mean I was 584 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: nervous for the clean for the moving guys to do it, 585 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: because I watched the video online. I was like, oh no, no, no, 586 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: I don't want anyone to come in here without the care, 587 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: not as seven thousand dollars, honey, you know. And so 588 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: I disassembled. I didn't have to move the mattress or anything, 589 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: but just like unplugging child, only for me to lay 590 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: in the bed like a regular mattress.
