Episode Transcript
[00:00:00] Speaker A: Welcome back to the she Said podcast with Amy and Lisa. Number 10.
[00:00:04] Speaker B: We should have had a celebration today.
[00:00:06] Speaker A: We should have balloons or something.
[00:00:07] Speaker B: Yeah, something like that.
[00:00:09] Speaker A: Well, you had a big weekend. How was it?
[00:00:11] Speaker B: So tired.
It's like this for two weeks. I feel like nonstop. I am partied out. I'm graduationed out.
[00:00:19] Speaker A: We're done. Big weekend.
[00:00:20] Speaker B: We're. See, it was just lots of, you know, senior parties, which, by the way, like, tip from a mom. Now that has done it. Parents start a photo album in your phone that is, like, for their senior year. That way you're not sorting through a ton of pictures, looking for those special pictures that you want to have for the yearbook or for the slideshow at school, because all these things are going to come up. So just start storing a senior album.
[00:00:46] Speaker A: Good idea.
[00:00:47] Speaker B: In your phone with little things that you want to have for that day, because let me tell you, it comes fast and it's, you know, the party stuff and all of that, so. But it was a great weekend. Graduation was fantastic. We had some friends surprise us out of Hennessy, and I thought it was so nice that they came up and family was there. It was. It was a very nice graduation. He got to go do his discovery flight, so he got to go actually fly a plane this time. And he did the actual. The whole liftoff on his own.
[00:01:17] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:01:18] Speaker B: And the instructor said, really? I mean, he only flew three minutes out of the whole time. He did everything else. And so, I mean, he absolutely loved it. So that is. And that's what we're. You know, we've been on this discovery, like, what do you want? What do you really want to do? Where's your heart lie? And I think that sealed the deal.
[00:01:34] Speaker A: So that's really where. Direction.
[00:01:36] Speaker B: He really loved it. So. Yeah. So now the rest is just. No. Well, no. I was really so giddy for him. You know, people ask me that about him being on a sea, doing stuff like, are you scared to do? I pray every single day that he goes out. Yes. But to see him have such a passion for it and he loves it so much. It really just makes me happy to see him do something that he loves.
[00:01:56] Speaker A: So they have the school here, so he would go here, too.
[00:01:59] Speaker B: Yeah. So they. Yes, they have Spartan and then they have tcc.
There's some other options we haven't looked into. I mean, he. He really.
Of the two things that we've done, he really likes Spartan. We've got some things to figure out and nail down now that he knows what he wants it was fun watching him up there. He was just smiling ear to ear.
[00:02:21] Speaker A: Oh, I'm sure. Was he nervous at all or. No, no, no.
[00:02:25] Speaker B: Not one bit. No, not one bit.
[00:02:27] Speaker A: Those little planes make me nervous to ride in.
[00:02:29] Speaker B: Nervous too.
[00:02:30] Speaker A: It's not enough metal between you.
[00:02:33] Speaker B: I will say those schools have a great maintenance.
Oh, I'm sure good maintenance records with those. What they do a lot.
[00:02:39] Speaker A: So.
[00:02:39] Speaker B: So what about you?
[00:02:40] Speaker A: It was sort of a. Trying to get. My theme right now is trying to get Lisa's Groove back. Yes. Lisa's Groove has been gone for a couple years.
I just had one of those weekends where I got my nails done, got my hair cut, colored, went out with friends.
Just sort of spent the weekend being busy. Good.
[00:02:59] Speaker B: Busy.
[00:03:00] Speaker A: It was good. No, I needed it. I, you know, it's been a couple years of just putting my family, parents first and my mom first and I kind of consuming. Let everything else go. Yeah, it's full time and it's mentally draining and physically draining and. And so I feel like my body is really looking. It's taken a toll on every aspect and so I just needed a weekend to do what I needed to do to get my groove back.
[00:03:24] Speaker B: I'm glad.
[00:03:25] Speaker A: So we'll see.
[00:03:26] Speaker B: It does. It takes years when you're dealing with a sick family member or parent or just working on getting their things moved here or there and sorting.
I mean, it really will take you out of the game for years.
I mean, especially when it happens one parent at a time and they piggyback each other. It changes your whole mental state.
[00:03:48] Speaker A: It really does. It's funny how it takes a toll and you know, really for I'd say two years, it was almost two and a half years of almost every. Well, every single weekend and sometimes through the week where I drove an hour to, you know, I spent the weekend with them just helping clean and cook because my mom, just physically health wise, she was okay, but physically could not do it. And to give my dad a break and I cooked and I cleaned and I spent the night there and. And so my, my house and I mean this is the craziest part as I decorate to the nines for Christmas. I have trees in every room and it's a big deal. Plus I have a big Christmas party the first part of December. I did not take my trees down until after she passed away in March. Yeah, I couldn't. I physically wasn't there. So understand my house still isn't back.
[00:04:34] Speaker B: That's how I feel, Lisa. And I'm like, I have to just do baby steps where I can, just mentally. Because life around us still has to go on, and we have to be places, and then you just want to kind of sit down and get stuck in your thoughts, you know? So I know you see it a lot, and a lot of people are going through it. That's why when I hear people talk about, oh, my gosh, their house was so messy, or McMahon, you don't know what they're going through. I mean, you. You don't know what's taking their time. You don't know what surgeries they've been through. It's just. And when it all starts piling up, you kind of just freak out.
[00:05:09] Speaker A: Yeah, I do. I can't stand it. It bothers sex every aspect of my life.
[00:05:15] Speaker B: I'm glad you're getting your groove back.
[00:05:16] Speaker A: I'm trying. I like to hear slow, steady, steady it. She lives in Okmulgee, and so we just meet the Hill shopping center, and there's only so many options, but we. So we usually go to Chili's.
[00:05:29] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:05:30] Speaker A: Because I can eat. You know, get their salmon, which they.
[00:05:32] Speaker B: Change their chicken tender.
[00:05:34] Speaker A: Not the chicken tender story.
She loves a good chicken tender.
[00:05:39] Speaker B: They used to have the best, and they changed their fry on it or something. And I know there's somebody out here who knows what I'm talking about, so I won't ever go get them there again. That was the only thing I ever wanted at Chili's were their chicken tenders.
[00:05:51] Speaker A: That's hilarious. I always get their salmon. It's a really good salmon, and it seems to be staying consistent. But my friend ordered bone in wing a couple of times ago. She orders kind of the same thing as I do. I order salmon. She orders that. And they brought her, like, chicken nuggets.
[00:06:07] Speaker B: Really?
[00:06:08] Speaker A: Yeah. It was weird. So she sent them back and they brought her the right thing. But it's like, why. How would those be? Those are so opposite.
[00:06:13] Speaker B: Bone in wings.
[00:06:15] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:06:15] Speaker B: Get them boneless or bone in. And they're more expensive with bone in. I think from certain places.
[00:06:20] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:06:21] Speaker B: I'm like, give me the boneless. I don't want to work for it.
[00:06:23] Speaker A: I don't think I've ever had a wing in my.
[00:06:25] Speaker B: Touching them. Yeah, I won't. You're not gonna ever find me ordering buffalo wings because they. I don't like touching my food like that.
[00:06:32] Speaker A: Oh. To pick them up and. Yeah.
[00:06:35] Speaker B: My fingers nast.
[00:06:36] Speaker A: Yeah. I don't think I've ever had a wing in my whole life.
I don't Think that's something I would ever order.
But the. In that. Funny to me how I went to dinner with a couple of friends Saturday night, and just casually, they'll start asking me questions about the podcast, about some of the products and stuff we talked about. And I said, what podcast?
And they're like, your podcast. I just. It's so funny how many people are listening to the podcast and giving us comments and feedback and. And it's just funny that it's taken off like it has. And so many people love it so much.
[00:07:10] Speaker B: So it makes me happy.
[00:07:12] Speaker A: I know. It's really fun.
[00:07:13] Speaker B: I was sitting in the parking lot the other day, and a teacher was parked next to me and unrolled her window to tell me, you know, hi and all that. And she was like, oh, your podcast. I love it. Like, I mow my lawn to it every time. Like, that is where I catch up on it. And when I mow, I put my headphones in and I listen to your. And I had no idea she was listening. But I do have people all the time. Like, they have questions. People really will have questions about the bentonite clay. They seem to really like that. And then talking about just the mixes with the castor oil, so we can kind of touch on that later to.
[00:07:46] Speaker A: Help people with other options.
Yeah. It is funny, though, because we. We love doing this, and we're having so much fun, and we look forward to it every week.
[00:07:55] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:07:55] Speaker A: When we're here recording and the. But and so edit it and put it out there. And then I kind of just move on. I forget about it. And then to get. So I don't even.
[00:08:03] Speaker B: People we talk about.
[00:08:04] Speaker A: I. I just edit it. Takes me 5 hours to edit it, and then I can't remember what I just edited.
[00:08:10] Speaker B: Yeah. At least the brains behind that.
[00:08:11] Speaker A: It's just funny that we put it out there. We just move on.
[00:08:15] Speaker B: And we love conversation, literally.
[00:08:17] Speaker A: Yes, it is. Yeah. It's just two friends talking, and then people come up to us and we're like, what? You're actually. People are listening to this?
[00:08:23] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:08:24] Speaker A: So it's very cool because we're getting a lot of views and.
[00:08:26] Speaker B: Well, you talk the Facebook page. Why we've had to move it. We're moving it to an open group, and so we're shutting down that.
[00:08:32] Speaker A: And I came up with the concept. It's been almost three years ago now. Was to have this podcast, but a lot of life happened and it didn't happen. And so I created a she said private group on Facebook, which is was always going to be the she Said Podcast group. And I just posted different quotes and stuff that. Things that happened to me or along the way. And so you can't take a private group and turn it to a public group. And now that it's the live podcast and we're posting the podcast on there, we need it live so everybody can get to that page. So we've had to create open Facebook page. So the old she said page, which is just she said and it's spelled sed for said, is going away. And we started a new one called she said Podcast, which is public. And so we need you to follow the new she said Podcast Facebook page.
[00:09:21] Speaker B: Yes, please.
[00:09:21] Speaker A: It is public now. If you've been following the old she Said, it's going away soon.
[00:09:26] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:09:26] Speaker A: And you want to follow the new one. And we also have Instagram, which is also she said podcast. Yep. And you can follow that as well. So.
[00:09:33] Speaker B: And speaking of, two Facebook Pages that I know about that I think are pretty cool, Just regular Facebook pages. There's one called Tulsa Moms. And I don't care if you're. If you don't have kids, if you're a furry animal mom. This page, I've been so blown away by it because it's really just. It's just women, but the things that they're willing to come out and ask each other generally. And a lot of times it might be an anonymous post or whatever. It is just a huge support group of women. But they're all asking really good questions. Either it's local stuff or ailments they have going on and things like that. But it's just a group that I thought it's really neat for a group of Tulsa women. And then also there's a Facebook group you have to ask to join it. But it's called what's up with Our Skies Oklahoma? And, you know, everyone's really concerned with everything they're seeing and the weather and, you know, things like that. But there's a page just for Oklahoma, and it's called what's up with Our Skies Oklahoma? And it's a really informative group.
So those are just two pages that I've kind of come across that are worth sharing.
[00:10:33] Speaker A: Well, you. You talked about the bentonite clay. You know, we're big advocates of castor oil with all the different oils. And I. I get mosquito bites all the time. I actually, I have a guy come and spray my yard once a month who has saved my life from mosquito bit bites. But I went out that Evening, on the same day, he sprayed. And so I just don't know if it had taken effect fast enough. But I got a mosquito bite on my neck and itches horribly. And so I went right in. I went in and I mixed a concoction of my castor oil and my frankincense oil and just put a little bit on there. Completely stopped the itching. It did not get big at all. It stayed the very same size it was when I got in the house. And I never had another issue with it. And I've never had a reaction like that with anything I put on it.
[00:11:17] Speaker B: Well, I brought you that little rollerball today. So I brought Lisa these little brown roller balls that I fill up with castor oil, rose hip. And I think on our first podcast, I might have said primrose. I don't know why I said that. It's not primrose, y' all, it's rosehip oil. This little rollerball has castor oil, rose hip, a little bit of jojoba and some frankincense. Few drops of that in there. And that one has a little bit of black seed in it as well. I keep one in my car, one by my bed, but you can roll it under your eyes, around your lips on a bite. See how that works with those other things in there.
[00:11:52] Speaker A: Good.
[00:11:52] Speaker B: I mean, it's just. It's a good oil. I love those rollerballs because you can use it anytime you want around your eyes, so.
[00:11:59] Speaker A: Well, that oil, too, I just. There's something about it. And I'm a big magnolia soap.
I love that place so much. I. As soon as they opened, I was in there. And I've had multiple girls nights out where we've made. You know, I love shower steamers and all this stuff, the bath bombs and when my mom was in the hospital. This just goes to show you how much really good oil does when it's the right kind of oils. They have their shower oil, which I use during the day. I don't always use it in the shower. I use it just to put oil on my skin all the time. And when my mom was in the hospital about three years ago, her arms were just black and blue from all the needles from all the blood draws and the IVs. I mean, we're talking.
She didn't really have much skin, normal skin color. It was all that deep purple that elderly people get.
And then my mom kind of went into like a 10 day, 13 day coma from all the toxins in her body.
I ran, I rubbed that Shower oil on her arms daily. I massaged her arms with that oil every single day there. Literally the people would walk down the hallway and comment on. They'd come in and go, what do you guys have in this room? It smells so good.
Literally within six days, not a bruise on her arm. Not a bruise. I mean, completely gone. In fact, one of the nurses that, you know, they work for like three days and then they're off for three days or four days, she came back and I said, look at my mom's arms.
And she was just stunned and could not believe. She goes, well, I don't even understand that. How in the world. You know. Because if someone on blood thinner and that age, their bruises last for months long time. And I told her what it was. Of course, all the nurses went and bought some, but. And I told the owner. I'm really good friends with the owner because I shop in there all the time about it. And she goes, well, I'm not surprised. I mean, the oils they have in it, it's. I don't know all the oils, but it's. I don't think they ever list them all because proprietary stuff. But it's all really good.
[00:13:54] Speaker B: I have their itty bitty bum bum shower oil in my shower.
[00:13:59] Speaker A: It's the best. It's a great oil. So it just.
[00:14:02] Speaker B: I mean, laundry soap, I can't. Yeah, I can't get enough of that.
[00:14:05] Speaker A: Your clothes are.
[00:14:07] Speaker B: Smells so good.
[00:14:08] Speaker A: Yeah. So it's just a whole do. I've got more people on that product because that's what I give as gifts when you come to my house.
[00:14:13] Speaker B: Yeah. Any triple scent in my laundry.
[00:14:16] Speaker A: What's the best laundry detergent? It is so good and it's so good for your clothes. And it's all natural clean. There's no.
[00:14:24] Speaker B: Yeah. People are missing out if they haven't tried that yet.
[00:14:26] Speaker A: But it just goes to show you how well yeah. Great oil is.
[00:14:29] Speaker B: I had a neighbor who lives store and they're like, what do you always have coming out of your dryer vent? My dryer vent blows right into their yard. And I'm like, that's. That's what it is.
[00:14:37] Speaker A: Yeah. Because the shower. And then they have the dryer balls too.
[00:14:40] Speaker B: And I haven't tried those. I've got dryer balls, but I would always lose them.
[00:14:43] Speaker A: Well, they soak them in the oil. They did just the straight oil. And then you put them in your. You just have to let them dry for a few days before you put them in your shoe. My neighbors.
[00:14:51] Speaker B: It doesn't end up leaving any oil stains on your clothes.
[00:14:54] Speaker A: No. Because once they're dry, you. That you have, you can't use them for several days till the oil dries on them.
[00:14:58] Speaker B: I didn't know that's how they did their dryer balls. Okay.
[00:15:01] Speaker A: It's the best. And my neighbors do the same thing. Like, what in the world do you smell so good? You know, you can smell laundry detergent and downy and all the fabric softener. It's so bad for your laundry. As someone that has a client that's an appliance store, like that's your number one thing not to use is fabric softener. And so the fact that you know these things, it's such a good fabric product.
[00:15:23] Speaker B: Shower ball.
[00:15:23] Speaker A: Yeah, they're great.
I think you get six in a package and they'll. They stand right there and put the scent on them for you. And then you just have to. They put them back in a plastic.
[00:15:32] Speaker B: Do you regular scent or do you do double trip? Double.
[00:15:35] Speaker A: It depends on which product I'm doing. Because some of their scents are really light. So you need to do double.
[00:15:40] Speaker B: Itty Bitty Bum Bum and Magnolia mixed together.
[00:15:43] Speaker A: I do Moulin Rouge right now is my.
My scent. I. I switch.
[00:15:47] Speaker B: Magnolia is on Cherry Street.
[00:15:49] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:15:50] Speaker B: Places. But that's one I always go to.
[00:15:52] Speaker A: There's one in the mall and there's one in Broken Arrow.
[00:15:54] Speaker B: Yeah. Multiple places. But definitely go give it a shot.
[00:15:58] Speaker A: And it's a local couple that own them and she's as sweet as she can be. So anyway, I didn't mean to get off on that, but I just proves like essential oils are.
[00:16:07] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:16:08] Speaker A: So good for us on every level.
[00:16:11] Speaker B: So people have had a lot of questions about the bentonite clay because I know it's always real intriguing to people and they do always come back with questions. So you get the powder and you can get one that's a food grade bentonite clay. You get the powder. You put it in a glass bowl. If you want to make a cake or a sav. Or however you want to say it.
Like if you have a big bite or say you have a. A big zit. Spider bite. Especially a brown recluse. This is what I've done for my own family. Put some of it with a plastic spoon. You do not want to use metal. It has to do with the charge. The positive and negative charges in it.
[00:16:45] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:16:45] Speaker B: So plastic spoon, scoop it, put it in a little glass dish. Either put bottled water or distilled water. No. Tap water.
Distilled is always the best though for any of this.
Mix it up with your spoon until you have just. It makes a ball. Basically slap it on there and cover it with a bandage. If you want to drink any of it, just, I mean I put maybe an inch of water in a glass and then I'll put. You can do a half a teaspoon or a tea. You can just depending on what you want to try first, mix it up in there. It might be a little chunky if you don't get the liquid form one and then I just chase it with more water and it's, you know, it's done. But yeah, the clay, I mean you can use it over bites. That's how you would make a clay pack is what they would call it. Or you can take it internally and that will help pull viruses through your body. I mean all kinds of illness helps detoxify you, Heavy metals, things like that. And I think we might have the event clay linked on the link page.
[00:17:41] Speaker A: Okay. Yeah, we do.
[00:17:42] Speaker B: So anyways, that's it. About the bentonite clay, you had something.
[00:17:46] Speaker A: You were talking about my chart earlier. You want to talk about that?
[00:17:49] Speaker B: You know? Yeah. So a friend of mine called me, she's like, hey, what do you know about my chart from one of the hospitals here? You know, I, I didn't personally know a whole lot about it, but I was like, well, let's look at it and see. Because she had a 11 year old child that she was needing to get to a specialist and she was like, man, I didn't like when they sent me all this stuff about having to fill out my chart to put her all of her daughter's information on there, which seems harmless in the beginning, but she's like, I don't know, something's not settling right with me about it. So we go on here and we look and I thought it was really interesting because it said basically your your child.
For children's ages, how a minor proxy works. Okay. For children ages 0 to 12, parents or legal guardians can obtain full proxy access, enabling them to view all available medical information and utilize MyChart features on behalf of the child.
Adolescents ages 12 to 1712 years old. Due to privacy regulations, limited proxy access is granted by default. This typically includes access to immunization records, appointment scheduling and billing information.
To gain full access, both the adolescent, the 12 year old and the parent or guardian must complete and submit the necessary consent forms. Like I have to my 12 year old sign something to consent for me to get more information. Like so it was just kind of like the fine print that we were reading into and it was. You can. It says if you're already a Mychart user, you can request proxy access for your minor child directly within the Mychart portal. Alternatively, you can complete the appropriate proxy forms and submit them to your child. Like what a joke.
[00:19:32] Speaker A: That's scary.
[00:19:33] Speaker B: Yeah. To me that's very scary that when my kid is 12 years old I have to get them to sign something for me to get medical information on them.
[00:19:40] Speaker A: When you take a child to a doctor's appointment, you know, you fill out all the paperwork. Do they sign the paperwork or do you just. You.
[00:19:47] Speaker B: I've not ever had. My kid has never had two. But I've not ever had them involved in. In that. That I know of.
[00:19:53] Speaker A: But I'm just wondering. It's the same thing. If you're. If you're signing all the paperwork for your child because you're the guardian.
[00:20:00] Speaker B: Right.
[00:20:00] Speaker A: Then you should have access to all their medical records. You would think, you would think it'd be the same way.
[00:20:05] Speaker B: You think. But I mean I pulled it up right here and that's what it is saying. So I just thought it was an interesting little bit of information that maybe it's one of those things like what do we need to know a little bit more about.
[00:20:16] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:20:16] Speaker B: Before we just always click on the convenient route.
[00:20:20] Speaker A: I do love my chart. I have both of my parents access to. I have access to both of theirs and it saved me when they're sick because I can go, you know, because they don't pay attention to that stuff. They might. And I'm always. As soon as they get blood work I'm on it, seeing what their blood counts were and it really did make a big difference. So there is some positives to it but that seems a little wacky when it comes to a minor child and not getting.
[00:20:46] Speaker B: Yeah. So if anybody has different. I mean please comment and let us know.
You know what the other ins and outs of that might be because I would just find that a little shocking.
[00:20:57] Speaker A: Yeah. So those back office options where you can actually read your medical information is really has saved me from, you know like with my parents and with my own. I, I just. That makes me think about.
I have my yearly follow up appointment. I have to go every year for checkups for cancer and it's coming up in June and I'm already having physical reaction to a June appointment. It's so crazy. PTSD is real.
[00:21:24] Speaker B: Oh it is.
[00:21:25] Speaker A: And it's. And it's One of those things where I'm like, I think I'm going to have a CT scan while I'm there because, you know, you just have aches and pains and.
But it's funny how that chart, Speaking of the charting is when you get a CT scan, you don't usually get an email, like 5 o' clock that night that says, it's been your. Your chart. I forgot what they call theirs. It's not my chart, but it's some kind of charting is act, you know, uploaded and so. But you can literally, if I go at 10 in the morning, by noon I can see the results in my ct. Of course, you don't understand half of what it means.
[00:21:58] Speaker B: Right.
[00:21:58] Speaker A: But you have to. Have to, you know, search it to see what it really actually means. But you get an answer. So, so many people I think about that. I, you know, when I volunteered out there talking to people and they got a CT scan and it's a week later and I was like, well, what have you. Did you read your chart? No, I don't have an appointment until, you know, next week with my doctor. Go read. It's out there. You know, just. But people don't. I think people want to hear it from their doctors instead of.
[00:22:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:22:22] Speaker A: Doing it themselves. But, man, that thing saves me every day. I mean, I'm out there in five minutes after I leave there to see what they're. Because their notes are in there and what they're saying.
[00:22:31] Speaker B: See, I didn't, I don't do that because I've never done it.
[00:22:33] Speaker A: Oh, it's. Everything's out there. Your, Your blood pressure, your, you know, your heart rate, all of it's out there. And then after surgery, you can go read the doctor's notes of what they're.
[00:22:43] Speaker B: Oh, wow.
[00:22:44] Speaker A: What they say.
And so. And then like, you know, if you're getting a CT scan, you get the results in a couple hours. It's out there from the, Whatever the guy's name that reads like the radiologist. Yeah, the radiologist. Once he reads them, his notes are out there. And sometimes you see it before your doctor sees it. So there's positives to that too, and obviously negatives. But I just, when you brought that up, I'm like, gee, many, I've got you. Use it. I'm already having, I'm already having PTSD for. It's not till the middle of June and I'm already. My head's already going there.
[00:23:13] Speaker B: So crazy, right? Yeah, imagine.
[00:23:16] Speaker A: So how are the thoughts? For sure, it's Been eight years, so.
[00:23:19] Speaker B: Surely doesn't seem like it's been that long.
[00:23:21] Speaker A: I know. It believes like, yesterday. Oh, and I was going to tell you, I got my peptide book. Oh, good. She's getting her groove back. Because now is it good?
It's all the peptides. This is. This is written from a doctor and, like, it's got them all out there. There's one for sleep. There's one for, I mean, everything. And this is like the peptide I see you've got.
[00:23:42] Speaker B: You've had oils on your hands are always like, your phone is so gross, Mom. I'm like, look, I can bathe in oil, so you're gonna have to just deal with it. Don't touch your phone.
[00:23:54] Speaker A: Yeah, that's my castor oil from last night before I went to bed. Yeah. Anyway, I'm excited about it. So I don't know. You know, I have a client that's a wellness clinic, and so I go in there, and some of it I'm studying for her because I have to post about all this stuff. And I'll go in there. I'm like, what about, isn't there a peptide for this? And I'm sure she's going, oh, nobody take that book away from her because I went in last week. I'm like, isn't there a peptide first that helps you sleep?
And she goes, yes, there is. I'm like, maybe we should order that for Lisa.
[00:24:24] Speaker B: Probably talked about that. Yeah.
[00:24:26] Speaker A: Struggling. So anyway, I think I'm going to pick it up today, which is kind of.
[00:24:30] Speaker B: And what are you using? Are you mixing anything with your castor oil?
[00:24:33] Speaker A: Right now I just am doing frankincense.
[00:24:36] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:24:36] Speaker A: I like the smell of it.
[00:24:37] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, they have. I thin mine out because I'd made a post the other day on my own personal page, and people are like, I want the recipe to that. And because I know some people don't like how thick castor oil is. It's very thick. A friend of mine threw her bottle away. I'm like, no, what are you doing?
I do typically look at it as doing it in thirds, but I always do a little bit more castor oil. But I do castor oil, the rose hip, the jojoba, all that works to help moisturize a little better. Because your castor oil can be a little drying, too. So just know that. So if you add those things, it helps. There's moisture back in your skin, and it helps with sunspots and all of that. And then I do.
So the frankincense and I mean 20, 30 drops in this bottle that I do. I think it's a eight ounce bottle. I don't know. Now four or eight ounce, I'd have to look anyways. That's the kind of the mix that I do. And then I'll. I will add some of my brother's oil just because I have it in there. And I love the smell of his stuff more than anything. But even without that, that's a great way, a great mix to do. Even if you just cut it with jojoba. Just helps it glide on a little easier and it's a little more manageable. So we had a lot of questions about that.
[00:25:47] Speaker A: I love the oils. I've used castor oil forever and then, you know, mixing it with lots of other oils and you can even put your, your magnolia oil in there if you get your really good scent going too.
[00:25:59] Speaker B: That would be bad. You could actually just mix it in there. Just pour some out of that bottle. Oh, that's a good idea.
[00:26:04] Speaker A: And get that scent going.
[00:26:05] Speaker B: There you go. Okay.
[00:26:07] Speaker A: Because I do, I do love to lather my body in that stuff.
[00:26:10] Speaker B: Speaking of body stuff, did you notice my teeth?
[00:26:12] Speaker A: I did.
I thought you'd been to the lake, but I knew better since you haven't.
[00:26:16] Speaker B: Nope. It's a good tan. And it's that Bondi sands. The one hour.
I'm super happy with it. I mean, I works quick, gives me a good color. It's done an hour. So how's it smell? You know, you get that self tanner smell afterwards.
But that's where I scrub in my baking soda.
And. And I did go to the Dollar Tree and I did find that wash.
[00:26:39] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:26:40] Speaker B: We're talking about Ph Balance wash and I bathe in that too, but I don't smell anything on me now. I'd say it took like two showers of, of doing those two things, but it was gone. I mean, baking soda work and does what it's supposed to do.
[00:26:55] Speaker A: And then how does that start breaking down? Does it break down on you?
[00:26:58] Speaker B: No.
[00:26:58] Speaker A: Start getting blotchy?
[00:27:00] Speaker B: No, I've not had that experience that when I've used it in the past, so I've been happy with it.
[00:27:05] Speaker A: Yeah, it looks really natural.
Just a little orange on your legs.
[00:27:09] Speaker B: But I think orange. Oh my God. Now she's laughing.
[00:27:14] Speaker A: I knew you were thinking that. No, you're not. It literally looks like your normal skin. I don't know what your normal skin tone, but it looks just like a tan. It doesn't look any color at all with it.
[00:27:24] Speaker B: I like it.
[00:27:25] Speaker A: So funny.
[00:27:26] Speaker B: I'm telling you, I didn't do a whole lot other than just kids.
[00:27:28] Speaker A: I mean your, your graduation stuff. Yeah, no, the weather. Crazy storms last night.
[00:27:34] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:27:35] Speaker A: I mean how many more do we need?
[00:27:37] Speaker B: I don't know. We were stuck trying to get up Peoria and the. I don't know if the light wasn't working, but we were jammed and it was. There's been one other time that that happened to me in a tornado. Like Stephen was like, there is a tornado just to the west of you where you are. You've got to get out of there. But the way that traffic was stuck and like people were not running. I'm like run the red light. Like at what point do you realize we don't like we got to go. And I had actually put my wheels up on that sidewalk of Woodward park because I, I, I'm like, I am not getting taken out here because you clowns can't figure out to move forward. It was insane.
[00:28:13] Speaker A: I literally just, I left here at 3:30 thinking, you know what? It's coming, I can tell. And so I left, did not want my car in a health storm. And I got home, pulled into the garage, got my dog outside and back in and it hit and it was, was hammering my French doors and I just, and it was quarter size at least thought well this is great. Now I'm gonna have to deal with.
[00:28:39] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:28:40] Speaker A: Damage to my house from this storm. I lost a couple umbrellas, blew over. But I know there's been a couple.
[00:28:45] Speaker B: I so need to make a roof claim. And then every year I'm like, well I need to get through this next storm season before I do it because I don't need another storm coming and wiping it out a new one. And then so I just got to get it taken care of.
[00:28:57] Speaker A: Crazy storms, constant. And then my poor dad. Dad loses power and cable and everything. Last night, literally at 4:30, the tornado in Fort Gibson and which where my brother lives, he had, my dad drove out to his house. He's got, they're, they're gone but he had some damage or trees down. Not damage to the house but.
And my poor dad of all things, sitting there for you know, five hours. You can't go anywhere because it's storming. And then he has nothing, no lighting or anything. But it came back on about, about 9 o' clock last night. So.
[00:29:29] Speaker B: Oh my God.
[00:29:30] Speaker A: Really?
[00:29:31] Speaker B: We don't need this now.
[00:29:33] Speaker A: It's just constant.
[00:29:34] Speaker B: That's what took. I went, I was Close to E. And I thought, you know, there's a storm coming. I'm not going to be without full tank of gas, because if we do lose power in the city, people are going to be panicking to go get gas. And Ty was like, oh, can we just go home? I'm like, absolutely not. You know, I'm going to be prepared. Like, I'm that girl as soon as we pull that. Because then we went to a parking garage. And he was like, wait, do we have enough gas to sit in the parking garage? And he was like, oh, my gosh, thank goodness you did that. Like, he saw it. I'm like, that is why. Because then we're sitting in that traffic forever.
[00:30:07] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:30:07] Speaker B: And if I would have been on E, I would have. Probably would have run out of gas. So make sure you're prepared.
[00:30:12] Speaker A: You have to know my dad. You don't let it get past a half a tank.
[00:30:15] Speaker B: Oh, he's.
[00:30:16] Speaker A: That's the rule. And he sent the enemy all the time.
I don't. I mean, because of him, if it gets to half a tank, I fill up. Because for that very reason.
[00:30:25] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:30:25] Speaker A: He's always said, you never let it get past half a tank because you never know what's going to happen. And then you always have gas.
[00:30:31] Speaker B: So true. And that's the biggest thing is having gas. So I do tell my kids that I just don't take my own advice because I'm like, wow, I'm on E again today.
[00:30:38] Speaker A: Yeah, it goes down fast, too. But, yeah, I've always done that. So that.
[00:30:42] Speaker B: But I don't recharges on all of our, like, yes. Rechargeable lights and little things like that. Like, I. I would say every six weeks, maybe four weeks, especially right now, I go, I just put them back on the ports, charge them up, make sure they're all good to go. Because I do know that I had nothing to worry about in that department.
[00:31:01] Speaker A: Yeah, that's what I asked Kim last night. So you're. I've got lots of little chargeable lights for them and bought a little halo for them a couple years.
[00:31:09] Speaker B: Yeah, those are great.
[00:31:10] Speaker A: So I said, well, dad, are you using that little lamp? We just bought a lamp for mom to have beside her chair. That's just a touch. It's a battery. Or you recharge it. It's just a touch on top. And he goes, I have the lamp on next to me. And he said, I've got that halo plugged in. I'm like, oh, yeah, you have a really great daughter that bought that.
[00:31:26] Speaker B: Exactly.
[00:31:27] Speaker A: So those great gifts they really are because, boy, they do. When. When the Father's Day storm a couple years ago and I lost power for however long a week or. Yeah, I had fans going with that and lights. I could keep a light on. And so they do come in handy you to think about all that stuff.
[00:31:44] Speaker B: Several people were over stuck on the tarmac yesterday. One of Ty's friends was calling him and I think it seems like it was totaling up to a matter of five hours. They finally took him off, but.
[00:31:54] Speaker A: Oh, on the plane.
[00:31:56] Speaker B: But yeah, I mean, it's just that's why I don't ever travel without one of those little pocket like fans because I've been stuck on a hot tar.
[00:32:02] Speaker A: Mat for miserable hours and I thought.
[00:32:04] Speaker B: I was going to come unglued. Yeah, that's not where you want to be sitting next to me.
[00:32:09] Speaker A: No.
[00:32:09] Speaker B: Panic sets in.
[00:32:11] Speaker A: Well, it's just. It's hot. Hot smells and it's so. That's not good.
[00:32:16] Speaker B: Let's just get to the like.
[00:32:17] Speaker A: On that note, I think we're done for the day. Follow us like us. Share us. Tell your friends about us. We love hearing all your feedback.
[00:32:25] Speaker B: We'll see here you guys. Or talk to you guys next week.
[00:32:28] Speaker A: Yep, we'll see you then.
