Triple P

I have long suspected that Tim dropped or flunked out of Moody after one semester and lost his first job in Spokane when he went home for the holidays. Fall 2018 - starts Moody, works for a janitorial services company. Jill claims Tim is working and going to school full time. December 2018 - returns to WV for the holidays, home for 2 weeks. Jan - Jun 2019 - works at an adult care home in Spokane, maybe attends Moody. I think he isn't going to Moody though because Jill stopped mentioning Moody in her posts, even when she, Renée, and Janessa visit Tim in Spokane in April or May. If Tim were still going to Moody, I think she would have posted pictures from the campus to brag about her son in college. After the trip, Jill claims Moody wasn't honest about the costs and Tim can't raise the money so he has to drop out. Plus the school doesn't use the KJV exclusively, so bad Christian college (she posted that like they didn't know Moody didn't use KJV despite the posts she made about Jill and David praying hard about Tim going to Moody because it wasn't exclusively KJV before Tim moved to Spokane). I remember there was a brief Go Fund to Me for his "tuition," he needed $3,000. But due the timing, I think that was to pay for his second semester at Moody, not his second year. The details are fuzzy but I think it was in January or February, likely when he had to pay the bill for second semester. Jill and David donated $500. June - August 2019 - dropped or flunked out of Moody, goes to Wisconsin. Tim writes a very smug post about how he bought a used truck with his own money. The writing style is completely different than Jill's usual prose, so for once, I believe Tim actually composed the post. Fall 2019 to March 2020 - Tim attends Fox Valley Community College, taking classes in the aviation program, which is apparently a 2-year program.Tim seems to have a job in an adult care home, maybe met a girl that Jill doesn't approve of. In March he returns home to Ohio (Rods moved in Jan 2019), for spring break and his birthday. He supposed to return to Fox Valley, but due to COVID, the school moves all classes online and Tim stays in Ohio, apparently never finishing his 1st year at Fox Valley. Summer 2020 - Jill posts that Tim got his private pilot's license, finished a ton of schooling, and decided to move back home, where he had already been living since March.

In one of her videos, Jill says she wears makeup to glorify God and Jesus. It is all for Him. So she is focusing on them when trowels on the eyeliner. 🤷‍♀️

My thought was Tami Loehers' hourly rate is possibly 2x more than her daughter's and Jim Bob went with the cheaper option.

A window was covered when the addition was built. Did the boys' bedroom or the girls' bedroom lose a natural light source?

Nurie and Timothy are missing. I think this was taken during a grifting tour that Timothy couldn't go on because of his job.

If the title is changed, I humbly resubmit "The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Josh and Anna Smuggar"

I thought Jill was referring to Jonathan's visit in September. He visited in November too?

She made Renee pose like this for her "graduation" portraits. Nurie and Kaylee probably did too, but I don't remember now.

Lack of quality control?

I have noticed that too and I think Jill thinks she is tricking people into thinking the kids really write these posts. I am shocked we haven't seen a post from Jill yet, expressing her shock that kids got on FB and Instagram to write the birthday tribute.

Yes, if Nurie's style wasn't JRod's, JRod wouldn't have bothered with the kitchen makeover. The narcissist in my family offered to make curtains for my daughter's nursery, made a big deal about how she was going to make the curtains, don't buy any! Then I didn't pick out fabric that she liked and didn't want poufy ruffles, and so there were no narricissist-sewn curtains.

I think Susannah (sp?) Is local to the Kellers. She has two children, one born earlier this year.

The host of the podcast is ex-IFB, so I can't help but wonder if her take on this is a reflection of her upbringing.

And greenery wrapped around the newels and banister

To quote Jill, it has an "upstairs attic."

I'm shocked the attendant allowed Derick to pump his own gas. I occasionally drive through Oregon and sometimes I automatically start to get out of the car just out of habit. The attendant always stops me and asks me to get back in the car. Not to get political but I wonder if current events have made the attendants back off when people want to pump their own gas?

The little girls were there, but it seems they were stuck at the booth with David while Jill and the older kids went on rides.

Nathan and Nurie's courtship was announced July 1, 2019 and they were married July 25, 2020. I think their engagement was in November 2019. If Jonathan and Kaylee follow Nathan and Nurie's example, that would put their wedding date close to Jill and David's 25th wedding anniversary. Wouldn't that be a precious way for Kaylee and Jonathan to honor Best Mama Ever (and David), just like Nathan and Nurie honored Mr. and Mrs. Keller? Bonus: Wedding reception becomes Jill's 25th anniversary party! October 4, 2022 will be on a Tuesday, so maybe one of the other Rodlets will have to honor Jill in this way.

They addressed it and basically said they couldn't be fans anymore because half the fun was being able to cheer for the racist team name.

Yep. My anniversary is shared with one of the birthday of one of the Duggars (Jason?) and Queen Elizabeth II.

I guess Tessie was demoted from the older girls' group since Nurie vacationed (ugh) with Jill.

Hosanna, the eldest Plath daughter, isn't on the show though, so the Rods may not have another "in" with the Plaths.

I live in the PNW and I'd say it is a bit of both but mostly the normal overcast we have near the shore many mornings.

It is probably a TLC-branded sticker in Instagram. Jill used a TLC-branded and wedding-themed countdown clock on the pictures she posted after they mailed the invitations to Nurie and Nathan's wedding.

Hey now, David is the hardest working man Jill knows! Of course, according to Tim, a Christian doesn't have to work very hard to be considered a hard worker, so I am not sure what Jill is bragging about.
