And her daughter had a Little Debbie snack cake cake for her birthday.

I lost my head for a moment and listened to about 30 seconds of her "singing." Jesus Christ. Trying now to delete that noise from my brain. That one can not carry a tune at all.

I love how Jilly makes it sound like a record producer heard her sing and BEGGED her to come record.   Honey, you did the tourist thing.   

Yes I noticed that DBD didn't let go of his leftovers box.   

Notice when they go places with the kids, it always someone else paid or they only do the free stuff.   But when its DBD and her alone, they have no problem paying to go to places.   Amazing how that works out.

I'm surprised he even had leftovers.

[BradandJanet]

How long did David carry around his leftovers in the summer heat before getting them into the fridge in the airbnb? I can't imagine Jill was finished doing Nashville before evening. 

Jill claims Plexus works wonders on gut issues. Maybe she'll report back to us with some details.

Bravo to those of you who listened to Jill's "singing" performance.  I was afraid to click on the video - thought it might set all the neighborhood dogs to howling.

If Jill did spot Christine Brown in her gravity-defying dress, I wonder if it caused her brain to explode?  Go suck up to a Z-list celebrity?  Or avoid her at all costs, lest Dave's eyeballs pop completely out of his head?

They opened a dollar tree 4 blocks from my house. It’s not too bad!

During her Temu shopping spree, Jill also bought some glittery leopard print earrings to match her feather earrings and tacky Jesus shirt. Looks like she got the pink cowboy hats there too ($3.87 each). She probably bought stuff to decorate Tidei's new house. Lucky Heidi.  

I have no place to wear the feather earrings (neither does Jill, for that matter), but they look better than the Rodrigues Sisters' Etsy store stuff. Cutting ovals in pleather requires a pattern to trace and a pair of good scissors to cut neatly, neither of which appears to be available in the Sisters' craft kit. This is a simple problem to solve. "Primitive" does not mean looking like a kindergarten art project.  

Are the ever-insufferable Jill and David back from their Nashville romp yet? Jill's head is going to be too big to fit through the barndo's front door.

Jill is probably sitting outside the door of the Grand Ole Opry waiting to be discovered as a Christian country star.

The sad thing is, she's probably going to be regaling her kids for days with her tales of the wonderful adventures she had in Nashville...while the birthday girl, Renee, probably spent the days attempting to feed her siblings and the rest of the kids made sure the tchotchkes were dusted.

Janessa and Sofia would like that hat. Very cute!

[Teriacky]

Just heard Jill’s Roman recording. That is a whole lot of vibrato in one song. Yeah Jill, I can sing vibrato too but not throughout an entire song!! ( I can also sing on key too…).

RYMAN, not Roman!!’

The pink hat with the tiara looks like a rodeo queen hat. Very cute.

But she didn't buy it for either one of them. She bought it for herself. She is a selfish woman. I doubt she is coming back from Nashville with anything for those kids.

I never saw her wear them.  Those earrings weren’t gaudy enough for Jilly Bean.  They’re probably stored   next to her stuffed animal collection in the top of her closet.

A Redditor tried to guesstimate what selfish witch Jill spent on her vacay with her hunk.  I was appalled.  Just think of what that tarted-up cow could have done for her children she claims to love so much!

Please don’t keep us in suspense!  How much money did the selfish witch spend on herself??

Like I’ve already said a page or 2 back:  Jill can’t sing for shit, but she thinks she has a fabulous voice.  She can’t even recognize that Renee’s violin is out of tune ALWAYS.  The whole family sounds terrible, but Jill thinks they’re great.  I don’t understand how anyone can be that tone deaf, but Jill definitely is! 

[Westiepeach]

And now all we will hear is how she was begged… BEGGED I tell you… to record a song in Nashville.

dip up dave probably got an entire second meal to take back to the airbnb to snack on while map watching.

 

[oliviabenson]

 While the wives were at plexicon where were their husbands? 
 

Jills team must have brought their husbands with them.

so the plexus husbands were swimming in the pool? Or watch tv together?

Or listening to Big Dave's sermons.

Her kids have been trained to react on cue to mama showing them the haul saying things like "oh mama you deserved it for all your hard work" or "oh mama gawd has blessed you for withstanding such persecution" or something like that. 🤮

For sure. Jill will brag about all the things she and Hunk saw, did, bought, and ate. The kids will obligingly listen and tell Mama how happy they are for her. Not for one second will Jill feel a bit of empathy for her children who stayed in the house, did nothing, and ate what they could find or what Tim and Jonathan would get for them. 

I suppose the good thing for the Rodlets is that they didn't have anybody yelling at them, hitting them, preaching hellfire, and keeping them up late listening to rants. The house must have felt unusually peaceful. The bad thing for the kids is their sorry excuses for parents spent all the food money on their extravagant trip.

I wonder if the kids even realize that most parents would bring back things for them, not buy everything for themselves (Jill).

I hope that was the case. However, I can't help but wonder if Timmy was delegated to keep an eye on things as the acting headship in David's absence. If he wasn't too busy with his new house and courtship, I can easily imagine him lining up his sibs and practicing his preaching/ranting at them for an hour or two every evening. Or maybe the next bro down the line - Samuel? - got that job.

Probably not. These kids live in a bubble, and they're trained that they can be happy only if Mama is happy. 

However, swag from the conference, post cards, or an interesting placemat from a restaurant would be free or cheap. It's really the thought that counts. No doubt, however, that childish, selfish Jill has kept such things for herself. She probably doesn't even think much about her kids while she's away. DBD is just as bad. 

Jill is all about Jill. Always.

A few of the conference attendees will remember the loud blond with the scraggly hair, tacky clothes, and oversized cheap jewelry, who was running around the conference center screeching gospel music in the hallways. 

Jill is a standout, just not in the ways she think she is.

Also they have been taught that others getting something when they did not is a lesson to learn about not being jealous.

Nurie wrote long ago about the kid of the week getting a candy bar and how they learned not to be jealous when said child ate the candy in front of the rest of them.

[Lady Edith]

So basically Jill has banned all human emotions from their family BUT happiness (fake) and fear (very real).  A better lesson to teach the kids is that it’s NORMAL to be jealous.  It’s how you respond to the jealousy that matters.  But that doesn’t fit the “keep sweet” narrative, so…
