Eh, I look at her and I just feel dislike. New shoes, carefree attitude, hair curled.I know she has to go on living for her children, but she just has rubbed me the wrong way for a long time. Including still wearing her damn wedding ring. I guess she didn’t hear the trial the same way we all did. So what exactly is happening here? Is she all on the Dugger dime, or is she getting government assistance? I don’t know how she doesn’t go crazy in that “house”. Sure, the Dugger boys probably came in and fixed it to be all modern and pretty, but I don’t remember any windows in that place. I love to be outside so stir crazy would be the words for me. Maybe that’s the deal. You stay married and live in the little garage, and you get all the free clothes and shoes you want. I was just reading about the prison conditions, and saying how there’s not enough food, and things are expired and full of bugs. Yet he still looks as fat as ever (and I reserve the word Fat for him. I don’t criticize other people, but this dope deserves every bad word there is). Plus, they said he is strolling around in expensive sunglasses and shoes. So I guess daddy is putting a lot of money his way. Plus, he’s in the nicer dorm section. Microwaves, doing your own laundry, other privileges that most don’t get. What’s up with that? He already had bad behavior and solitary because of the cell phone. But now they said he’s getting a degree, so that might be why he qualifies. Watch this doofus come out just as arrogant as ever, with his beloved wife waiting for him, and some dumb degree. Didn’t we figure out that Anna will probably be passed child bearing years when he gets out? Or it’ll be close. But he won’t even be able to live in the house with her, so how are they gonna figure that one out? Josh moves into the big house, and pretends not to see Anna and the kids right next-door?

Not to mention, claiming all those children on your tax return every year. I am surprised she’s so eager to marry off all the older kids. They were kind of holding their band together, or whatever you call their performing. I thought Kaylee had a rather nice voice when you could hear her over Jill. The waifs aren’t cutting it at all since they all seem so much younger than they really are, and I haven’t really heard any decent singing from those little girls.

So how did they ever have any money at all before the magical plexus came along? Are they on welfare? The money thing doesn’t add up at all. She is damn lucky to never have had a child with any serious illnesses. Although I guess that remains to be seen with some of the younger ones like Sophia, who looks extremely unhealthy. Even though that seems to be mostly environmental.

I’m not even really sure how David makes money. So he does the printing of these religious things, and then drops them off or mails them out? So how is he paid and how much?

First thing my eyes went too. Hard to believe when you see the pants that Jill has on, but I still saw that first. It looks like it should tie at the bottom? But I’ve never seen anything like that, tied or untied, so WTF? I’m so sorry for everyone here involved in loss. It has always bothered me when people thank God for saving them, when very good people die very bad deaths all the time. I know, the answer is always that we are not supposed to know the whys of things. I just don’t buy that. Why would this loving God save someone like Jill from all harm on the waterslides, when other lives are lost tragically.

Why does it look like he has a curly hairpiece just sitting on top of his head?

Thanks for the explanation. So does being a twin, fraternal or identical, make any difference in whether they have twins themselves?

I do often think realistically about what I could’ve done. I’m not putting myself up there anywhere as some fictional, major athlete or movie director. In my mind, I think that I have always liked taking care of people, so I would’ve been a good RN. And my husband thinks realistically about being a military officer. He ended up with a good federal law-enforcement government and job anyway, so that probably worked out better. And I wanted to stay home with babies, and travel, so I was part-time travel agent. I would hope that most people think realistically about what they could’ve done instead of head in the clouds dreams. they gained a little bit of fame, and were all like– I wanna be an astronaut! I want to be a country music singer! I wanna play golf! I want to direct movies!

Jed and Jer are also fraternal twins, as were John and Jana. So I’m thinking they are definitely going to be fraternal. So how old are their existing children now? Will she have four under two? Or will the oldest one hit three? I don’t know why anybody wants to do this, except Michelle‘s philosophy of leaving it all into God‘s hands and children are like flowers. I personally kill every flower that comes near me.🤷🏻‍♀️ Katie seems like such an interesting normal person. I can’t imagine why she chose this life and this man. she still shows quite a bit of personality, thank God for that. But the other side of her is a devoted fertility machine. 😔

When you first glance at the picture, it looks like she’s showing her entire belly. The brown band and the sticks make it look like it’s her belly and a belly button. At least she’s not going in that direction. She did get awfully arrogant after Josh became such a big deal. But I am sad for the girl that was the homebound daughter of the prison preacher. She adored Josh when she saw him on TV and thought he was the greatest thing ever. Her good life began when they moved to Maryland while he had that important job with the family research blah blah blah. She was putting together a little playhouse on the deck, when she had like two children, I believe.Those were the glory days, and it must have been quite something to sink all the way down from that. And then further down with his conviction. But somewhere in between there, she became very arrogant. and holier than thou. That’s when she became incredibly unlikable from the poor sweet little trailer trash gal who made her own wedding clothes, and listened to her dad talk about grape juice. It’s just all a tragedy. . And now she is breeding dogs? Is there nothing but pregnancy involved with this person?

I don’t do nails, they drive me crazy, so I just recently bought some of those press on/ glue on whatever the heck they are nails for a special occasion. I’m glad to know they’re good now, I haven’t tried them yet. But I too remember the days of the bad nails that wouldn’t stay on and looked plastic. and I got a very light pink, not all this gaudy crap that she wears all the time. The fact that Jill has had a family to cook for for so many years, and still can’t figure out what to put together is a disgrace. I only had two children, but had to cook for many years. After a while, it’s instinctual what goes with what. Husband decided to take over cooking, and he’s a little puzzled on what to do without recipes. I can come up with suggestions for what else he can do with ingredients, or how to add more bulk to certain things. All this means is, she’s never really tried to cook like a decent human mother (not that all mothers have to cook, but she presents herself that way).

They still don’t have realistic goals for jobs – even the imaginary ones. A professional golfer? A PA? So Jinger thinks she’s just going to march into a Hollywood studio and be given some sort of a job? Because she was on TV and because she lives in LA? And Jeremy had no other thoughts besides preaching or being a famous athlete? I don’t think being in LA is helping them at all, it’s inflating their egos. As is Jinger’s book money. what could she possibly talk about next? I think her time as an author is coming to an end.

Rice and beans would be a great filler too. A lot of ways to season that up. You can live on beans and no meat easily with all the protein. You can do a ton of pasta dishes that are very inexpensive, and always tasty. Although her kids are used to eating such slop, they probably don’t even know what good food taste like. We can sit here and come up with all these meal ideas without having to do it, and this B refuses to try anything. A good breakfast is a hearty rice pudding. Not sugary like dessert, but like a morning meal porridge, kind of thing. Not much money involved with rice. Or the strattas. Basically eggs poured over bread and whatever else you want to throw in (not what she did with tomatoes on top of all that other crap) and bake it. Those both could go a long way and not cost much of anything.

Meatloaf is a great idea. With a bunch of potatoes or noodles for carbs. I suggested before the million things you could do with beans that are filling and have the protein they need. Besides the gross processed lunch meat. I make a black bean soup, it’s very cheap. And then you can chop up tortilla shells and put them inside to add more calories to it. She just doesn’t wanna try. Jill Dillard is always doing something with beans. She’s always soaking them for some kind of interesting international dish. Hell I used to even throw them into pasta in poorer days. Pasta fagioli. I just used kidney beans, pasta, and some seasoning and it was actually very good.

I can’t believe she called it sausage casserole. There was less sausage than anything else. I saw her sprinkle it on. It was like enough for a medium pizza. I don’t even get what that bottom layer is. Was that some leftover concoction? Because those ingredients don’t go together with anything else that was happening in there. The funny thing is that she thought this one was good enough to actually film and show off! Imagine what else they eat (shudder). No wonderful Philip came back looking plump and healthy.
