I agree and really didn't like it when Christine was goading her to say all is fine now. Christine has been saying all is fine for >25 years of marriage, but that didn't make it true. Truely did seem to be speaking for herself directly to the camera. She has a larger vocabulary than her sperm donor.

Those were the first two who popped into my mind too. Or possibly her mother or a sister? But I don't really understand tattoo choices; if it was someone personal to you, why not have it somewhere that you can readily see it, not as a billboard for others and for you backwards in a mirror.

Where did Christine sit? Kootie said he never wanted to see her again.

Savanah is still a minor child, until December 7th when she turns 18. But Kootie probably is as clueless as he was about Truely's & Ysabel's ages.

And Kootie was not there to "perform" the wedding and make it all about him. How nice.

My Whirlpool was new in 1996 and is still going strong & I've never had a problem with it.

I think Brian was the guy he phoned when Meri needed a loan to buy the BnB. We only saw Kootie's side of the conversation, but it sounded like he & Brian were "wrapping up" a company and Kootie wanted his share of the profits. Brian said they had a balance of $0. So Meri had to shill LuLaRot instead.

Another video by a salesman showed Janelle's model with an outside kitchen with a couple of burners and sink (if you attach the water supply), so no need to go inside to get a pot or pan during your one date night per summer outside with Kootie. 😉

LulaRot branded swag? No thanks!

When I went away to university, I had to buy my own bus pass or ride my bike to school & work.

I wondered if they had even bothered to tell Meri they were coming and that is why she was crackling about no breakfast for non-paying 'guests'. Meri probably only stocks up food and gets her cook in when she's expecting paying guests. I don't eat breakfast or keep cereal, sugar, bread, flour, milk or OJ in the house, so if friends or family drop by unexpectedly, they better be fine with black coffee or tea. Perhaps an egg or some frozen blueberries if they are lucky. 😉 Watching Kootie back up the trailer with Gabe in his passenger-side blind spot was not cool. And if he had turned & pivoted at the right moment, there would have been no need to pull forward off the side of the road. But yes, he could have done a worse job.

Somehow the "Mind Blown" emoji doesn't quite work for this thread. Yes what he does would be mindblowing in the normal world, but totally expected in Kootie's world.

The owners put her rennel house on the market for $699K in May 2021 but it didn't even sell until September 13th 2021, after one price increase and a couple of price reductions, and sold for $649K . Gabe had a girlfriend who had her own apartment, and Garrison renovated an old motorhome and then bought a house, but I don't know the timeline relative to the 5th will purchase. Long ago Janelle mentioned that she'd like to get an RV and drive all over the country, but one person doesn't need to be hauling two bathrooms and beds for 6-8 all over tarnation. I was imagining something much smaller that is easy to park.

During the first year of Covid when Truely & family came over to drop off gifts and again when there was a gathering out at the picnic tables on the property, Robyn was apoplectic when the kids were running around outside and pulled her kids away from the gatherings early rather than just telling them to stay 6' apart and suggesting some fun games they could play while distanced. I think Robyn's dislike for dogs carries over to her dislike/contempt for the non-Robyn children and she has been indoctrinating her snots to voice their opinions on the non-Robyns' pets and living conditions. Robyn says she would let Truely visit, but has already started making lists of excuses: no free bed (in the 7-bedroom mansion - is the shed available?), Christine doesn't follow "Kootie's" protoculls, ...

Veronica's daughter has several of the same mannerisms, like tilting her head/chin to the side when considering something, and a wide smile/lip-purse with a sigh. It is cute.

Robyn usually says "My mother says I'm treated as the Brown family scapegoat" to make it sound like an objective outsider noticed this rather than Robyn herself just playing the victim. But we know what she's doing, as when Kootie announces "his" protoculls when we know they are really Robyn's since he didn't practise them when at Janelle's & Meri's mothers' funerals.

Kootie responded that the dogs stay outside so that he can commune with his wife, though he also said he wouldn't stay in the RV. Janelle said, No they don't stay outside (probably in Janelle's bed) and that her dogs and kids come first.

Janelle & Savanah moved into town after summer 2021 and Savanah did not want to go back in the RV on CP in summer 2022, so presumably they are still in Flagstaff until Savanah finishes High School. One thing living in an RV would tell them is that 2 people can live in an apartment, which is cheaper and less work to take care of than a big house, especially now that the boys have their own places.

One of the snots said Savanah's bathroom was only big enough for a foot wash. I don't recall anyone being so disparaging during the family's multi-RV trip along Joseph Smith's heritage trail and the visit to Kootie's misogynist friend who Christine detested several years back. The kids all thought it was fun. Sol & Ari hadn't been born yet but would probably enjoy a night in the bunkbeds or loft of Janelle's RV. Though one night, not a summer.

The way Kootie was going on and on about how he would never stay in an RV and liked "MY room" in the BnB, I assumed Janelle & Savanah may have stayed in their rooms in the RV and Meri took pity on the patriarch and let him stay - for free with no breakfast - inside her BnB.

I don't see how rushing home to test works with Robyn's protoculls. Official protocols say to test 5 days after exposure because if you're incubating the virus, you may have a false negative test if you test too early. Ideally he should rush home, isolate for 5 days and then test, but we (supposedly) saw him drive back from Janelle's Mom's funeral, stop by for a test (negative), then rush home and through the front door to hug and kiss his favourite children.

And it is not full of sugar; it is halfway between heavy cream and butter. It goes with sweet or savory things, so you add your own sugar (jam) or spices or whatever yourself.

I've noticed Savanah near Kootie 3 times this season and he didn't even acknowledge her existence - at Meri's with the 5th wheel, at the family gathering where she sat next to him at the picnic table elbow-to-elbow and a similar scene in a flashback to a picnic table on Plague Pass.

I think Truely living closer to Aspyn & Mykelti will work in her favour. It is easier to be ignored by your father when you aren't around him and forced to sit through "family" gatherings where he showers your younger sister with love and devotion.

I can see it: therealmeribrown Reading your message I was hoping she'd finally realized that she shouldn't be using "real" in the title of a page full of altered photos that look nothing like her. But Nope! They're still there, and more unreal.
