UPSTAIRS attic ladies, upstairs. I was getting confused thinking maybe they had a new downstairs cellar basement attic.

Ha! I was thinking the same thing. And still have the “Edelweiss” ear worm from reading about it yesterday 😛

Personally I would love a downstairs cellar basement attic to store the things that don't fit in my pantry closet, like my collection of sweat blouses and baseball bonnets.

Heaven help the people who have to clean out the barndo when they move again. Jill has amassed a vast collection of dust collecting tchotckes since the last move. 

Her poor girls will have to wrap each piece of junk up so it doesn’t get broken. Jill does nothing.

Don't sell Jill short! She will point hither and yon as she directs the packup.

That she will do. Why she is so fond of showing off them swollen fingers I don’t know.

Makes me crave sausages in sauerkraut with a side of Pringle’s and ranch dressing. Yum yum in my tum.

Jill promoted deodorant that doesn’t work. On vigorous days she uses antiperspirant. She sadly didn’t apply the deodorant to her gahdly/mahdest pits. She was wearing a fetching blouse and baseball bonnet indoors. Also antiperspirant causes cancer sooo. I guess Jill goes for mammograms. 

[oliviabenson]

Deodorant is $13. I mean this lady only deprives her kids of stuff. 

[oliviabenson]

[xwordfanatik]

I'd bet it's a tiny little jar, too.  Personally, the deodorants that aren't antiperspirants don't work for me.  No sale, Jill. 

[Salacious Kitty]

I reported her for false information.

Basically, it is a deodorant that doesn't work. What is the point?

That’s what I’m thinking. Then don’t put anything on the pits. Carry baby wipes to freshen up. 

[crazycatlady58]

So yesterday I was on Facebook and one of the post was something like “ my old house” where people post pictures of how they decorate an older home. One lady said she moved her bedroom into the ‘ upstairs attic’. I was a good girl and did NOT ask her how she decorated the ‘ downstairs attic’.  Y’all were the only ones that would understand why it made me giggle. It was not Jill.. she did not have anything on the walls nor did she have 15 lamps in the room.

$13 for deodorant but The Waifs wear rags and shoes that don’t fit.  Crap like this is why I hate Jill. 😡

Yeah, but Dollar General doesn't give points that can be exchanged (maybe) for a cruise or a trip to an island resort, places where you can eat all you want while your children at home go hungry but you can't swim until after dark because others on the trip insist on wearing regular swimwear for swimming instead of something that resembles a nun's habit. 

Jill's in the Plexus business to get luxuries for herself that she would never have on her own. The money she spends on overpriced products to get this stuff makes no sense, but Jill doesn't make much sense anyway.

Hope Jill bought hers at a discount 

Because $13 is a lot for an unemployed family

Jill's finances remain a mystery.

Only if they get free gift cards. Otherwise the kids do not get anything. I doubt they even get frozen pizza.

If Jill had been able to produce another blessing poor Nessa would have been out of the crib whether she liked it or not. 

I hope Jill realizes that it's time to hand the crib down to one of her grandchildren and isn't still hoping to have another baby. I think that ship has sailed. 

She probably didn't know the appropriate age to transition to a bed bc every other time, the baby got kicked out so the new blessing could take up residence.

They pay as little as possible to get government aid. 

[crazy8s]

Jill has a new reel up about "I love hearing my girls' voices through the walls....chatting and laughing" #sisterbestfriends

Jill is literally standing 2ft behind them, in the girls bathroom, as she films Tessie  and Renee doing their grooming with big ole plastered on smiles for the camera.

The girls probably wish there was a wall between them and mama's phone .

[Salacious Kitty]

She left the comments on! 😱

The ministry clearinghouse does taxes for its members, but I'm not sure the Rods take advantage of the service. I can't see Jill wasting her Plexus time filling in government documents, so I suspect they have the clearinghouse take care of it.

Of course, she deletes anything negative. Its kind of like this page that our area started near the end of  the lock down to promote area restaurants. It was a lot of fun at first and we learned about a lot of places. But then, someone would say that something like "good food, but service wasn't great" and their post/comment would be deleted. One guy's post was taken down because he said the table wasn't very clean and he had to ask someone to come clean it. 

[Salacious Kitty]

I don't think she deletes. Once she realizes her mistake, she will remove all the comments and lock it down.

I think that's more on FB. She left the comments on Instagram open.

[PradaKitty]

Jill says she loves her girls VOICES chatting through the walls. Very strange sentence…

I’ve never heard of voices chatting. I HAVE heard of girls chatting. 

Jill also states that her girls are each others “best friends”.  Of course they are. They don’t know anyone else.

[oliviabenson]

Jill is trying to marry off 3 of her kids asap. Needs some IN LAW $$$. And more food for the parents.

[crazy8s]

The struggle is real for Jill, keep the older ones unmarried so they can continue the grift tour or have renee marry for another sil to buy jill things, and 2 sons working who can buy presents for mama.

I think Jill is paying close attention to the sm of her new plexus hun friend Karrisa. Jill so desperately wants the large following, the freebies companies will send her for posting their item. She will be in her glory if she can post "use my code for a discount"

It seems it has been since right around the time Karissa and Jill did the zoom plexus thing that Jill and Kaylee girl started the posts for engagement and now trying (and failing) to use #s.

Discount?  She probably had to pay full shipping on this crap!

You’re right.  She’s on the hunt.

[crazy8s]

Also bizarre that best ever godly christian jill is hosting a plexus event on Good Friday to sell overpriced laxatives and the possibility of winning a $10 gift card.

Really Jill, Good Friday????

 

[PradaKitty]

I don’t think they recognize Good Friday or Monday (Holy) Thursday. Just Easter. 

My phone doesn’t recognize Maunday Thursday either!!

She blocks.  Say something negative (aka speaking the truth) and you’re permanently banned.

Most Baptists acknowledge Good Friday, but I’m not sure about Jill’s brand of Baptist.

Probably true.

I truly don't see how they could celebrate Easter without observing/acknowledging  Good Friday. You know the entire reason Easter needed to happen.

Maybe Jill just hasn't gotten around to highlighting that part in her good old KJV 1611. 😂

A lot of the non-denominational and conservative Baptist churches around here don’t. Always seemed odd to me, too. Easter has a bigger impact when you take the whole story into account.

[ALittleShelfish]

Renee looks like she's starring in a hostage video.  Which, i guess ALL of Jill's videos are...

[ozziemom]

Then there’s the whole Resurrection Sunday instead of Easter.

i wonder if Jill will have her usual Easter egg hunt with only one kid getting a chocolate rabbit.

But how will this strategy work when she closes most of her comment sections?

She definitely lacks the engagement needed to get the freebies.
