Y’all. I don’t know what I am doing at night, but it is not getting sleep. I’m technically sleeping but wake up exhausted. I’m trying to stay awake to watch Xscape and SWV tonight on Verzuz. It starts at 8 pm on Verzuztv on IG. But I really don’t think I’m going to make it. I’m just so exhausted and I’ve only been up a few hours and haven’t done a thing but get through my emails. I can’t stop yawning!
Anyway, the only interesting thing I’ve found online today is that Sonja Morgan is staying at Josh Flagg’s house. So far she has left the bathtub running all night and flooded the house. she also left his Rolls Royce running all night and had to have mechanic to come out and charge the battery. It’s ridiculous.
There is even more on his live stream. She is literally the worst guest ever. Check it out. What exciting things are you guys doing today?
She seems like Ciara…a slob. She always talks about a bath so she doesn’t have to wash her hair. One time she was in the bath talking about how she hadn’t washed her hair in days. The Dallas girls talk about how bad D’Andra is. I wouldn’t even eat food at Sonja’s. JoshFlagg should be pissed. That’s in LA, right? She was probably drunk.
Plus California is about to be in drought conditions again. This selfish behavior of Sonjaβs makes me furious.
Tamara, Let me know if Xscape wins. I don’t have that channel.
I can see SM doing this π. Wonder what the heck she’s doing at Josh Flagg’s? I knew a wman like Sonja (only the woman I know is over 80 now). She was always really delightfull eccentric in an endearing way, then it went south to dysfunctional. I always loved her though- still do. I wonder though if this might just be an IG “joke”? I know nothing about social media- don’t do any of it (which works for me), so I don’t know the ins and outs much of all the stuff people might do for the sake of getting followers, or likes, or whatever the hell it’s called π
It streams on Instagram. If you have an IG account just follow Verzuztv.
Thank you my Angel!
I thought it was fab…!!! πππ
Omg I thought it was fab too! The gift that keeps giving! The Greyβs Gardens of BH!!!!
Oh, gawd. I just saw Josh Flagg’s IG stories. Why must Sonja always be such a hot ass mess? I get that makes for good TV on RHONY, but I can only imagine how horrifying it is in real life.
Who knew Josh and Sonja were good enough friends that he’d invite her to spend the weekend at his house? She’s a total mess.
Terrible! Send her home Josh. Not okay.
She does this shit on purpose cuz she likes people talking about her. Josh should know better.
Iβm breaking the walls of 5 years of silent lurkdom to inquire whether youβve got a weighted blanket.
That (plus 1/4 delta-8 gummy if necessary – indica strain) should allow you to sleep and wake feeling rested. You can find blankets and delta-8 online, so there is no need to stress about stores.
Thanks poppy. I got a weighted blanket, mainly for Banjo. Neither of us like it. The weighted part is not evenly distributed and stitched down so all the weight falls to the bottom. I don’t even know where it is anymore.
At least consider another, better quality blanket. My glass beads donβt budge from their zones. Choose on the lighter side of what you think you need or else you may wake up feeling stiff, as though Meredith Baxter-Birney fell asleep on top of you in her flannel pj bottoms during your topless bedtime hug but you were too zonked out to care.
And how is it that you know Meredith Baxter Birney is my woman crush Wednesday? π
Five years of reading + a memory for prurient facts. π
LOL.
I bought delta-8 gummyβs and joints online and Iβm too afraid to try them. Lol.
Iβm glad the blanket works for you, TT.
Itβs fabulous, but start low! I donβt know how that stuff is an uncontrolled substance when the other is illegal. Iβll bet it wonβt be for long. It is not like CBD. It is definitely THC.
what is considered low?
Thst was actually pretty funny. Josh didn’t seem to heartbroken about it. We’ve seen what these women can do to properties. Sonja just drumming up buzz for the new season! Don’t alot of women only wash their hair like once a week? I wash daily, irritates my stylist. I’m more disturbed by her sleeping in a bra like that! At least get a sleeping bra. Not doing anything this weekend just loafing. Made soup yesterday, can’t wait to dive into that. I might actually have to sign up for IG to see this sonja nonsense, lol!
I can’t imagine being so rich that you are not panicked over water leaking from a light fixture. I would be freaking out.
I just want to know how you explain this to your insurance co. Sonja came over, the future Farmer’s commercial bronze statue, of her in the tub!
Not his actual house so he don’t care. You can tell just by looking at the plugs in the picture of sonja in bed. It’s all fun and games destroying other peoples rental properties plus we know if it was actually his house he would be throwing a fit.
I thought I was somewhat level-headed and respected but should I dare say that I share the same birthday as Sonya Morgan. However, I don’t think I’m that much of a flake .. but maybe I am and in denial.
Verzuz was REALLY good. They didn’t pick a winner. I usually don’t watch these but it was all about the sisterhood at the end. I was there for Kandi, but I have to say if I had to decide, SWV won that. It was very close but it I had to choose the winner, it would be SWV….. Coko was REALLY BRINGING IT TONIGHT. I was watching while also watching Pretty Woman on Bravo. I’ll be damned if that movie doesn’t stand the test of time 31 years later. So good. I still want that brown dress with the white polka dots…
If you missed it, it is very long, but it will eventually pop up here. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCg6-IsoDysqRbkx5TihGTEA/videos
I commented above…but will say it again… it was fab…!!! Coco was spectacular and Xscape were fire…I was happy to see that Tiny was able to relax and get into it despite her troubles and yes sisterhood really was the name of the game β€
I have a black dress w/ polka dots just like that, it’s a favorite and an oldy but goody (what an interesting term by the way- “polka dots”- I’ll have to look up the etiology of it, lol). Now I need to lose 15 lbs to fit into it…. Love chic-flick rom-coms- so many do stand the test of time… I know it’s cheesy and maybe not even an especially good movie, but I love it because it’s filmed in my town and all the scenes are places and things I know so well- the “He’s Not That Into You” movie. I know, I know π
Question: Is there anything in your kitchen pantry that you simply can’t live without? For me it is onions. I know it is a weird thing but I really like onions and use them in pretty much everything I cook. I love onions! Also I am almost out of chicken broth again. I use that in everything too. Especially grits. I’ve been trying to wait until I need some more important things like wine, water and dogfood. But I think I may have to find my big girl panties and go to the grocery store very soon.
Any other hermits out there that need to be highly motivated to leave the house? Would a bag of onions do it for you? No? LOL. I am so weird.
We were talking about this the other evening. Not necessarily pantry staples or healthy but as long as I donβt run out of half and half and semisweet chocolate chips I am happy. (The chocolate chips rarely make it to the cookie stage.)
For the past year we have only left the house for medical appointments (much too often) & a weekly grocery run, but now that I have learned to drive my Christmas present Jeep Wrangler Islander from Fly Boy it is totally different. Yesterday I made up the reason that he needed a key lime pie & banana pudding (in spite of being diabetic) so I could go to Publix & do Jeep waves on the way & duck other Jeeps (Duck Duck Jeep!) in the parking lot when I get there. Note that I did not drive even once in the previous year, & now I look for the slighted excuse. I even drive the Jeep to the mailbox & to feed the ducks instead of taking the golf cart. Even my toy poodle, Coco Chanel, gets excited when I ask, “Do you want to go bye-bye in the Jeep car?” Great-granddaughter #2 thinks it is a hoot I have immersed myself in the Jeep subculture & she & her elder sister have been fighting over who will inherit my vehicle. Fly Boy says it will go to whoever treats me the best in my dotage.
I mean no disrespect, truly, but I remember back in the olden days of online forums posts like this screamed fakery, or sometimes called the humblebrag. Sorry. I don’t like mother’s day either so maybe not best time to comment. I’ve been thinking about this for a while tho.
I hope your life is really this enchanted and not a big imaginary friend type situation. If it is it gives me hope for the future. If not, then, well, chalk it up to innernet.
I will lick window with relish. Sorry for pooping on your Jeep.
Sam, I used to be skeptical of GrandmaMiz enchanted life myself. So I totally get it. It took me a while, but I’m a believer. π No need to lick the windows. If nothing else it is happy place in the middle of all my whining. #Balance
Mayonaisse is my pantry item I have to have.
I feel like Mother’s Day WILL NEVER FUCKING END. I was in the Kroger last Saturday and I was looking for cheap bunch of purple something to contrast with my yellow Irises and the entire floral department was wiped out. I thought, oh thank God, Mother’s day is FINALLY happening. But Nooooooooooeeee. Thank God it’s just one more damn day.
I just find it sofa kind annoying. My mother is dead. I am not a mother. Yet I hear Happy Mother’s day a billion times a day. Every show, every site, Just PLEASE let this finally end.
Oh and Happy Fucking Mother’s Day.
Lol, I came home tonight and on my kitchen counter there were peonies, hydrangeas, and 2 orchid plants from my daughters.
Sometimes I feel like you are a mother to all of us! But Iβm pretty sure Iβm older than you!
We come to your site everyday to check in, to look for advice, to share stories in good times and bad and feel a place of belonging. You are here for us TT, and we are here for you! We are family.
Happy Fucking Motherβs Day to you for all that you do!
I agree with this! She is like our house mother on Pose! Or. a virtual sorority/fraternity! I too come many times a day to check in tI see what might be happening!
I donβt comment often but I am a dedicated lurker!
I know it sounds weird because I’ve been a mother for 32 years, but in general I’m just not into holidays or being the center of attention (I really have a horror about that- never wanted a wedding, a birthday party- none of that). It sounds awful (and I’ve never really admitted it), but all the bruhaha surrounding Mother’s Day gets on my last nerve too!
When the boys were little (born 15 months apart and my youngest is on the spectrum, so “mothering” was extremely exhausting and intense), all I wanted for a “present” was to get the hell out of the house, alone, and not see anybody.. If I could have gotten away with stretching that out for a week, I would have loved that better. Of course I love my children in a deeply intense way, and believe I was a “good mother”, but I’ve honestly had fantasies over the years of how much freer and simpler my life would have been if I never had kids. But it’s one of those things most of us don’t admit out loud. Thanks, TT, for always giving us all a forum to admit those kinds of things…
Omg Kat you’ve summed up perfectly what most of us think but wouldn’t say out loud. I too am over these overcelebration of events. And I’ve just had another baby last year. I too dream of just having a day of nothing!! That’s my perfect Mothers Day day. I don’t need stuff I can buy myself. I just need time out not to think about everything.
So Thank you for expressing what a lot of us think!
Cheers
Hey Coco- you’re going through a lot- the really tough years. But I don’t have to tell you, lol! I really hope that you have people who can let you get away as often as you need to, and that you know it’s really,truly ok to tell people when you need to. I remember at night when my husband got home, at least a couple times a week, as soon as he’d walk in the door I’d literally run out of the house (in clothes still covered in “baby substances” with my hair sticking up), and just go wander aimlessly around the mall, probably looking crazy π You take care of yourself, ok? I hope you have some support…
Oh and I also wanted to tell you to set your DVRs to record Dr. Phil on Monday. Angela Stanton is on berating her trans kid and having the usual QAnon hissy fits.

BREAKING NEWS
Debris from a large Chinese rocket, the Long March 5B, landed in the Indian Ocean near the Maldives, Chinaβs space administration said.
Am I the only one who thought for sure it would land on my house just because that just seems to be how things are going?
I just knew it was going to hit my house. I kept looking up toward the sky everytime I heard an aircraft.
I really want to stay at Josh Flaggβs house now. Looks like great fun.
Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit fails post-race drug test
Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit has tested positive for betamethasone, a corticosteroid, the horseβs trainer Bob Baffert revealed Sunday morning…and that is why I hate horse racing!!!
The trainer has 5 infractions. In any other sport, he’d be either banned or suspended for a time. Wtf is up with this!?
I love Sonja (but after all the celebrities who have passed away in bathtubs & left us much too soon ) yet it seems drinking plus bathing at the same time could bring about fatal consequences. I worry about her.
I just cannot stand rich assholes laughing about something that can really be devastating to normal people. Sorry, but I have had to evacuate my home due to flooding when I had a newborn and it is not funny. I hate Mother’s Day and rich people.
I also woke up this morning to the worst period. Why am I almost 40 and having the most extreme, worst periods of my life? I hate everyone and everything and I want chocolate.
Is it time for an Endometrial ablation? Best decision I could have made when my menstrual cycle was out of control! Something to consider and ask your obgyn
Did you just get a vaccine? I’ve read lots of things on Twitter about women getting their periods within hours of getting vaccinated when it was not even time for one.
I did just get my first vaccine, but my period is pretty much on time for the past several years. I have just been much more hormonal and bloated, and way more emotional since I gave birth to my youngest son. I am 39 and my periods have just kicked my ass for the last two years. I am just tired.
Periods start going wacky at that age. Your hormones change as you get older. My sister suggested the ablation thing that the other gal mentioned, but she did say until she hit menopause she still had pms and all the bloating etc that went with her period minus the bleeding.
I chose no to the ablation. My cycle is part of the information my body gives me about my health, while I would love not bleeding I am afraid of unnaturally stopping that process.
I used to think that too, until I hit 50 and my occasional periods were so bad I could not leave the house. I had a huge fibroid, and had a hysterectomy. Best thing I ever did. I did not do the ovaries, because I wanted to do menopause naturally.
Lee, I too let my body dictate what was best for my health. After having week long periods every 2 week, proceeded by feeling like I was coming down with the flu each time, cyst that were painful because of the transition my body was going through, bloating, constantly feeling tired, lack of energy, the list goes on…. it was night and day for me. I got my energy back and felt amazing afterwards.
This procedure is not for everyone, this is why I suggested talking to obgyn to get all the facts before making her decision. It was the best decision I ever made for myself!
Knowing this day is a Mutha for some, i Imagine person who loved you most singing Songbird for you. Love you like never before.
I grew up 2 roads down from the entrance to the island JMorgan owns now. As teenagers we used to cross the bridge (having to go around the electric eye on the bridge), and later one of my best friends managed the estate, living over the 4 car garage apartment. We would laugh that now he was the guy to chase kids away. Sonja fucked up. I can imagine she was a nightmare to be married to!
I cant stand Mother’s day. I am lucky to have a mother alive and be a mother, but all through FB it’s Happy Mother’s day! and people with pictures of their mothers alive and dead, and I am supposed to comment on it, or send a heart emoji, and my friends all text me, which is nice, dont get me wrong. The worst is that tomorrow at work, everyone is going to ask, “how was your mother’s day?” and I am obligated to say, “great, how was yours/” and I dont tell them about the nervous breakdown my sister seems to be having (again), and how we got a new toilet today so I was smashing the old toilet with the sledgehammer in the driveway in the rain so it can get picked up with the garbage. I hate small talk as well.
I fully expected to get slammed for hating Mother’s Day. I shocked so many people who are mothers don’t like it either.
I don’t hate the DAY itself really. But it has just become a WHOLE MONTH of Mother’s day stuff. Every talk show, every commercial. It’s just nonstop commercialism.
I fucking hate Mother’s Day. It is bullshit. It should be Friday at 5 o’clock. I have to wake up at 6:30 am to drive my kids to school. No one actually enjoys this day because we have shit to do tomorrow morning. I have 30 minutes before I have to go to bed. Happy Fucking Moms Day, I am going to chain smoke cigarettes. Goodnight.
I have to say I love the new toilet though.
I know what you mean, Ingrid- that was another thing I always hated, having to make small talk when asked at work about MD, and feeling like I had to pretend that Mother’s Day was all like the singing birds over Snow White’s head π€£. When I really wanted to say- I drank too much last night and have a wicked hangover today, because the kids were driving me crazy and it was “my day” dammit (I didn’t drink much because taking care of litles when hungover is NOT fun, but Mother’s Day was an exception, lol!)
I sent my mom a card and money, a text the day of, she was thrilled and content. No waiting for Suday breakfast for a hour. In fact hubby and I did nothing and it was great! Had leftover Chinese, watched TV, snuggled our pups, quality day being away from the mom madness. I’m not gonna lie I enjoyed the cynical FB posts about mothers day.
Add me to the people who are vaccinated but will continue to wear a mask list. I’m still limiting my store visits.
My mom died many years ago and I have no children so mother’s day doesn’t mean much to me, but… my husband sends a card and calls his mother. She mentioned I don’t call or send her e-mails anymore. I do kind of just have my name on cards and say hi when he’s talking to her. I haven’t gone to visit since 2015 when it was all political fights and the husband would come back depressed.
I actually hadn’t realized that they cared about me enough to want to keep in contact.
I GOT MY FIRST VACCINE TODAY! I’ll officially, HOUSE OF DOLLY! Also I reserved two slots to waddle in the old lady pool next week! YAY! ME!
Yay for you!!
Yay!!!! You wonβt believe the relief you feel after the second one (I felt it after the first as well!). This feeling of βI can breathe!β
So they make you sit in a chair for fifteen minutes and I felt the best I have felt in almost two years! I was in a GROCERY STORE Sitting at the end of an aisle. I have panic attack nearly every time I go to a grocery store that happened BEFORE Covid. Yet, there I was calm as a clam. Did some shopping afterward since I was there. ZERO ANXIETY.
Today is a good day.
I’m SO happy for you!!!!! My hubby and I were very careful during this time and a little anxious but my daughter (in her 20’s) anxiety was off the chart and I felt so bad and so helpless. As soon as she got hers, she felt the same as you and feels so much better. It is a good day indeed! XoXo
