yes-the alldredge family who seemed like one of the more down to earth and drama free.

LuLaRoe is like "Units" for the 2010's...

Janelle and Meri have jobs. does Robyn still do the jewelry business? Christine doesn’t work right? What the hell does Kody do for work besides the show?

I heard somewhere that Christine collected welfare. Not sure if it’s true or false. If it’s true no way she could buy that house in Vegas.

Years ago My husband hated the show in the past and wouldn’t sit and watch it . Now he watches it lol! several times throughout the show he just shakes his head or says “what a douce!”
He can’t stand Kody lol!

Last night was boring.

It’s weird going back in time to last March on the show. I remember that it was a scary time because so much was unknown. Granted, starting any time now people who have had Covid could start growing a third arm because it’s a long term issue we didn’t know about, but for the most part, we know what the virus does and we’ve adjusted for it.

I think they will end up selling Coyote Pass. The enthusiasm for it is 100% gone.

It was nice seeing some of the kids last night - Garrison, Gwendolyn, etc.

I started to get Covid PTSD (really) watching their fear,
and remembering being just like that at the beginning.
I haven't changed much, as I have severe underlying health conditions,
but I started recalling all of the confusion & disbelief.

My inbox had this article from People today (mods not sure if allowed, please remove & forgive if not):
Kody says he only sees Meri "once in a blue moon" and "we quit dating."

I think Meri is pretty smart to stay exactly where she is. She has a huge house, keeps her own schedule, has already had one new house, might possibly get a second one with a mountain view, and it’s all being paid for by the family pool of money. Granted, she’s in a loveless marriage, but I bet she’s pretty content.

Per Kody: "Love should be multiplied, not divided."
He's not living up to his promises.
Meri may get a lot in the way of material things, but emotionally - nothing.
She's not my favorite, and I do not feel anything for the adults.
They chose their lifestyle.
I feel sad for the children - I have since they were young & I could see their
frustration with all of the parents and their noncommittal attitudes.
They struggled to make even the smallest decisions.

Has Logan refused to be on the show? He's just disappeared. They don't even mention him anymore.

Christine seemed genuinely surprised that her teen daughters weren't interested in pulling up stakes AGAIN to move back to Utah. I like Christine, but I wanted to smack her. These people pretend to be so family centered but really don't care about what they're doing to these kids.

This.

Christine: "Why don't they want to go back?"
Daughter: "Why can't we just stay in one place?" (paraphrased)

I'm confused. What supposedly happens to these "children" when as adults, they get married themselves? Aren't they then sealed to whomever they marry and then with them (and maybe their own children) for eternity? I'm not getting the afterlife-construct at all. Do people exist on more than one planet/plane-of-consciousness at a time?

Once a wife is sealed to her husband then they kind of become their own “eternal family” unit. So my grandparents were sealed to my mom and her siblings. A brother who passed at birth will be sealed to my grandparents forever because he never went on to marry or have his own family. However, my mom is sealed to my stepfather and her siblings sealed to their spouses and their kids then sealed to their spouses etc. To the best of my recollection they don’t become one ginormous sealed family but do get the benefit of having that family for eternity provided they all make it to the third tier of the celestial kingdom. Kind of like an ongoing family reunion type of thing. Now where it’s tricky is that I was never sealed to my husband because well, I’m a non believer so technically I’m still sealed to my mom and stepdad. I don’t have to worry about that though since I was excommunicated and would never make it to any tier. Since I don’t believe any of it I don’t worry about it but earnest believers do. As mentioned above women really do not stand any chance of ever having it dissolved so they worry about what happens to their kids or even making to the celestial kingdom at all. In my opinion Meri will never leave the marriage because of this.

I also felt a sense of PTSD. Wanting to rescue my kid and bring her home. Terrified of being near my DH because he’s essential. It was really hard to watch.

Lost my last quote but Oy, Christine. How out of touch can you be with your kids? And what about the rest of the family? You’re going to uproot them all so you can go back to Utah?

I don’t watch the show (I refuse to do anything that keeps it on the air longer) but I think all the moving and drama is made up to keep the show on the air and money coming in. If the show gets canceled, the money train stops and then they will have to downsize their life and *gasp* find other jobs. I think all of the adults started off ok with playing stupid/jealous/crazy to get the money, but for a couple of them the shine has worn off.

By all accounts Kody was moving them all over the place long before the show. They lost hundreds of thousands of dollars on the Vegas houses and are up to their eyeballs in debt with the purchase of the land and homes in AZ. Meanwhile their pay for the show has gone way down over the years. Who knows what the true motivation for moving is but money from the show ain’t it. Had they kept the homes here in Vegas and hung tight they’d be sitting pretty financially right about now.

So Meri’s mom died couple days ago.

As for tonight’s show - Kody finally visits Meri and Robyn has to call!
