Jill needs to quit taking pictures while in church. She is not focused on the Almighty but her mind is wandering to other things...and from such a "godly woman"....I am shocked.

Plus, I'm pretty sure that what is going through her head is something akin to, "wow, I bet all these people are just amazed at my voice, and are wondering how it is that I don't have a recording contract. But, of course, they don't realize that I am too SEVERELY devoted to my ministry to ever do anything that selfish. So I will continue to bless all these two-bit churches with my talent and beauty, because I know that my amazing humility will rack up points with JeeSauce and earn me my everlasting reward.

[BradandJanet]

I'm looking at the toe ring tourniquet on Jill's left foot. If she puffs up any more, she won't be able to get that thing off. She'll sit in the barndo until her toe turns black and she has to run to the emergency room for a SEVERE medical treatment that will put her on crutches and necessitate a wheelchair for her recovery in Florida. Nurie will have to start a go-to-fund-me for her. 

Better than her knee torn in four places, the toe looks like a plump, juicy opportunity. Money must be getting tight after the wild Nashville spending spree and the $30 spent on cheap pizza and one ride in an amusement park for the kids. Love offerings and a chance to sit and be waited on in Florida might be looking attractive to Jillybean.

She supposedly had a miscarriage back in February, so things were still working then. 

I’ll just say the quiet part out loud.  I do not believe she had a miscarriage, it’s called peri-menopause… crazy/heavy/irregular periods.  Avoiding details because when you know, you know.

Then JillR is just like Carlin Bates with a major toe injury, lol.

It’s also called making up a story to get attention.

By now, she’s probably convinced herself that she really was pregnant and had a miscarriage. Being pregnant at the same time as your adult daughter is the Holy Grail of Fundie Motherhood and Jill is desperate to hit that goal.

Jill screaming as if she was being murdered on the roller coaster sent me. Why is she always so loud?

In Jill's mind, everything is about her. I really think she has main character syndrome.

He put her and Dave on mute! Jesus doesn’t want to listen to her screaming anymore.

Because someone might miss what she was doing if she didn't make sure everyone could hear her.

Or she could have a naturally loud voice.   I get accused of shouting when I am really not.   I just PROJECT naturally.

[zenme]

I think she just wants attention ALL THE TIME.

It terrifies the children into instantly obeying whatever she orders.

[BradandJanet]

I'm not sure which is worse: the ear-shattering squealing or the high-pitched, syrupy, over-enunciated baby voice used with people who are not babies. Did Jill's mother talk like this? I have to mute because I want to start clawing on the walls when Jill starts performing for the camera, which is always. 

Oh, there's also the cackling. Does Jill ever listen to herself?

That's why I said "supposedly." 😃

I too am dubious. 

What makes me most dubious is the fact that, according to Jill, they made more than one trip to the ER when she was supposedly having a “miscarriage” but it took multiple ER visits to find out exactly what the problem was.  Nope, not buying it.

Jill thinks she can win the American idol and sounds as great as Reba McIntyre/famous singer. 

[oliviabenson]

More posting videos of her neighbors, their horses, their houses…

Her cemetery garden, new flowers, her clothes line outside.

And her finger pointing almost in every video.

 

So neat! (Smile)

Not to mention,  Jill looks better in the first picture,  than the second one.

[merylinkid]

"for years we vacationed in Amish country."   Because that's what people with no jobs do, go on vacations.   A LOT.   

And if she enjoys the simple life she needs to:

1.  Give up the map

2.  Give up Social media

3.  Stop selling plexus (seriously the Amish would not approve)

4.  Give up her phone.

5.   Stop buying every totchke she likes

6.   Stop the cosplay outfits (Plexus Convention looking at YOU)

7.   Learn to be self-sufficient instead of expecting everyone else to support you.

Jill before filter 2023. Jill after filter 2023.

[BradandJanet]

Jill is full of it. 

She and Hunk loved the mountains of West Virginia until, apparently, they got on CPS's radar and had to make some parenting changes. Persecution!!! Jill and Hunk didn't like being told they couldn't withhold food and education from their children, so they bought a business property in rural Ohio and the barndo was born. This was not the long-awaited fulfillment of a dream to live in a converted car-detailing building among the Amish. They wanted their FREEDOM!

And, Jill, calling the Amish lifestyle "simplistic" is not a compliment. It means "foolish" or "dumbed down"-- just like you. The word you want is "simple."

I believe the word the Amish would use is plain, not boastful or prideful which is the opposite of Jill.  The Amish may speak to you, but they're not your friends Jill!

Kinda crazy how Plexus can change one's bone structure and eye color. 😁😬🤣

Apparently, a Plexus "membership" comes with prepaid plastic surgery, colored contact lenses, and a personal trainer. With all that, the price for the actual products doesn't seem outrageous, does it? Does it, Jill, you shameless liar?

Looks like her photoshop or filter also flattened out her hair too, lol. And if Hunk so appreciates & approves of Plexus, why isn’t he any thinner or healthier looking? 

[Ljohnson1987]

Jill could never live like the Amish. She's too addicted to social media and selfies.

[oliviabenson]

people who changed their entire faces are the Kardashian’s and Michael Jackson… Jill does not have that kind of $$$. Lol

[BradandJanet]

Again, one of Jill's problems is that she truly thinks everyone is as dumb or as delusional as she is. Otherwise, why would she use filters and photoshopping in  such obvious ways? This is not deep fake AI; it's clumsy use of common  technologies. A business can get in trouble for false advertising, but Jill  apparently thinks the fake photos are realistic, and since she thinks they're true, everyone else will too. 

Maybe she's both dumb and delusional and a hopeless liar as well. The woman isn't well. 

[Jeeves]

Nah, Jill. I'll pass on the Plexus and just use a lot of photo filters. Cheaper - and less hazardous to my health.

Is she trying to make the claim that Plexus somehow affects serotonin in the gut??

[BradandJanet]

The Mayo Clinic says that too much serotonin, which may come from medications, dietary supplements, etc. can cause serotonin syndrome. Serotonin syndrome can result in unpleasant side effects and even death. 

Either Plexus is a scam or it's potentially dangerous. It will certainly empty a customer's wallet. 

Maybe someone will report Jill to Plexus, Inc., and she'll be reprimanded for these phony before and after photos. She also seems to be saying if you send a "before" photo, she'll photoshop or find a NICE "after" photo for you. She needs a collection of fake photos for her pitches. 

A good punishment would be to make her ineligible for the Hawaii cruise. A fine is useless since she doesn't earn enough from selling Plexus to pay it. 

[oliviabenson]

Sister wives might earn enough to get the Hawaii trip. Jill is not earning that Hawaii trip lol. Her and hunk will have to get a go fund me for it. 

[oliviabenson]

@ginger90 are you ok? You usually post everything first! 

[Westiepeach]

Jill would have a stroke if she went to Hawaii. All those sluttish women on the beach trying to lure her hunk away. Persecution! And we all know JillPM would be wearing her denim skirt in the ocean to show everyone just how godly she is.

LOL moment: I misspelled denim and it autocorrected to demon!!!! 🤣

I think Jill would LOVE to go on a cruise to Hawaii. It would show off her Plexus bona fides, give her and Hunky a much-needed vacation (they work sooo hard), produce lots of photos for her social media, and offer plenty to be shocked about (even more material for her social media). 

Lol. Jill knows nobody wants David. Nobody has ever tried to take him and nobody ever will. 

Demon skirt works if you're trying to swim in it.

[graybrown bird]

I wonder if "these last few waifs" are paying the price (in neglect by their mama) for not being boys.  

[satrunrose]

Jill doesn't seem to give the boys much attention at all other than occasional praise for their (ugh) academics (algebra-math) and preaching ambitions. I think the waifs came because a. there is a legit lack of chicken legs, especially when DBD "dips up" first so they were scruffier and waifier anyway and b. Jill the grifter realized there were richer pickings when you pull up with a rv full of extras from a Dickens movie than when you show up with a very pathetic version of the VonTraps.

I can just look at him and tell he snores like a MF. And she’s been hating that for 26 years. 

I feel that he also doesn't smell great. 

 

And while, I'm sure, they both believe his fidelity is an active choice on his part, the absolute absence of opportunity renders it, like most things in his life, effortless. 

[Salacious Kitty]

There may be women he was attracted to in the past 25 plus years. That nothing happened is probably more on the women's end, not reciprocating the attraction. 

Nothing surprising about that. 🤮
