Amy was specifically talking land as I made clear.

Amy said she'd like more room around the house. She said maybe an acre which is far more reasonable and understandable after living on a farm property. Chris wants more garage and shop space. Amy also wants a downstairs master bedroom which is an excellent idea.

That huge house was Chris’ dream not Amy’s. She was appalled at the size.

No one has commented. I'll go with June should be shunned by all her daughters until she makes them financially whole.

Yes the scholarship only covers half of tuition and leaves all the other expenses, too.

I wonder how much she's currently making from the show. Renting a $2000 a month house along with the school expenses isn't planning frugally.

According to Alana in the last episode, she's taking the classes to get into the nursing program. She's accepted at the university, but will still have to apply to the school of nursing after the prerequisites are done.

Carbon seems to cater to Matt less and less as time goes by.

That’s why it all seems done just for tv. Who waits to decide on college and arrange funding and housing until 3 weeks before classes start?

This season seems so contrived with three groups that don't normally interact much. Almost all the activities feel made for tv to me.

They may not be able to afford assisted living or a nursing home for him. Both of those are damned expensive, and Medicare does not cover it all. There may also be a waiting list for facilities that Medicare does cover.
He may very well need memory care which is usually private pay or Medicaid. It was thousands a month for my mother for 7.5 years. Also he may be very resistant to going into a facility. Medicare does not pay for assisted living or memory care. To go into a SNF he would need actual nursing care and Medicare only covers that after a hospitalization and with a strict limit.

My basic view is Primetimer should be mostly fun and entertaining with some information and socializing added. If we fail there, not much of the rest matters to me. I don’t expect a lot of an entertainment forum, but we’re in danger of missing the basics of why most of us show up.

Janelle had a state civil service job while they lived in Lehi. She had a pension and benefits.

I live near a Le Creuset outlet store so everyone in the family has all the pieces they want. Generally you can’t beat their Dutch ovens. Sale at the outlet is the way to go.

I can’t say the Little Couple put the kids’ needs first. The show ended due to a contract dispute not the parents walking away. I fear bill and Jen would have happily carried on.

have only seen maybe half a dozen women with Rh disease in the past 40 years (thank you, Rhogam!). But, in each case, we laid out the stats for the mom and advised that each pregnancy presented greater and greater risk including the need for procedures which can also cause fatal complications and to take this into consideration before having more children.
Rh is horribly difficult. Thanks for the info. I’m glad no one told us the med school jingo until years later.

lights within hours of birth and is projected to need them for at least 5-6 days is pretty dam*ed jaundiced. And the next kid will most likely have it worse.
Oh yes. I had my little lemons. We did not have rH problems. My aunt did and I thought she was foolish getting pregnant only for them to die. She didn’t get rhogam with her second pregnancy for some reason. Our doctors were never overly concerned and our first was the sickest because of figuring it out. The next two the doctor laughed I was ordering things before the child was delivered. Perhaps we were lucky but had no horror stories.

So it looks like this nameless boy was born Wed afternoon and by Wed night, he was under the blue lights bc of the antibody issue that Josie has, and he's been there since. Josie even says he's in the hospital thru the weekend and quietly says "or early next week." Wow - IDK what her exact antibody issue is, though she has said before it affects the newborn and tends to get worse with each birth - but wow they are willing to keep having kids knowing they're subjecting to days old newborns to A LOT. I mean normal humans would be like - 2 girls + boy namesake - we're good, let's not take any more risks. But who are we kidding Lord Kelton has always said he wants 5 + this boy needs a brother lest he turn out . . . well you know . . .
Our children had blood incompatibilities and we really gave not a lot of thought to the bili lights. I asked one of them sitting beside me and she was no big deal. The kids were treated and had no lasting effects. As she said it isn’t like tay sachs or cystic fibrosis. The newborns are treated and then it’s over and done. She’s happy to have had her siblings. Others will see it differently.

I don’t think any of them came through the adventure looking good.

My saying is this is why we have text messages. Do not disturb me after about 7 pm unless you are a child of mine or it's really important. I treat other people the same way.

Zach and Tori
in Little People Big World
Matt is not denied access to his grandchildren. He does, however, have to now be the one to make the drive. It has never been as simple as blackmail of sell us the farm or never see your grandchildren. As reported very hurtful words were exchanged. Probably both sides have repair work to do if they want a relationship. Matt isn’t someone who usually understands that. If a parent feels someone is toxic to them or their children, it is responsible to limit contact. I did. That said, Tori does hold a grudge easily and tightly.
