This video epitomizes the modern trend of wrapping luxury consumption in pseudo-philosophical layers to sanitize vanity as "personal growth." It is a masterclass in performative self-awareness that mistakes semantic hair-splitting for genuine moral depth.

It is called Tings and Wackos.
They have like this little Missouri City um community page on Facebook. So, I've seen several people that have visited here. I've seen the reviews, so I'm really excited to um eat here and let's see what it be like.
>> Yeah, that's the best grits I've ever had. Those are theirs are good.
>> I already know what y'all talking about.
[laughter] >> You said best grits. I already know what you're talking about.
>> Breakfast is extremely reasonable.
Extreme.
>> It is. It It's great.
>> I'm going to check that. That's on my next >> when I'm at work 21 22 for lunch. Like I can't do that every day.
>> Huh? Hi Jess. How you doing?
>> I wait.
>> Okay. So it's cute in here.
>> Okay y'all. So it's real cute in here.
Um this used to be a different restaurant to begin with, but they are now here.
So prices seem to be very reasonable.
They have um any three tacos for 12.
They also have wings. The wings are air fried. So better for you.
I think I'm about to be a little bit greedy. So I think I am cuz I want to grilled corn.
>> Oh, grilled corn sounds good.
>> Appreciate you. You have a good one, man. All right. You as well. Thank you.
You too. Enjoy it.
>> Yeah, I hope you do too. Hey, >> here we go, guys. The Jamaican jerk dry rub.
And y'all know I am a rants connoisseur.
Let's see the consistency. Oh, look.
Yeah, it look a little bad.
>> Let's see.
Let's see if it's to my liking.
>> Very Oh. Oh, it tastes good. It looks good. Oh, these are air fried to perfection.
>> They are. They >> say to perfection.
>> You see the flavor.
>> Oh, you see the heat coming off of them.
Why you ain't burning your mouth up?
>> Fresh.
>> Is it?
>> Mhm.
>> Quiet on the freak.
>> [laughter] >> When I s [laughter] you ain't never been a girl and you sure ain't been a little >> That's a funny >> Oh, Sauy.
>> It's catchy though.
>> You made a whole song, right?
>> Yeah, it's a whole song last night or today at midnight.
>> And it's it's going to viral it. All it got to do is catch on to social media, Tik Tok, and all that.
>> That's what it is.
>> And you got yourself a winner winner chicken dinner.
>> Quiet on the creek. We need to make you a song. Mm-m.
That ain't my forte. Hey y'all. So, happy Saturday. I know I did not pick up the camera after I left. Is it Tings and Wackos or Wacos or however you want to pronounce it? The ery that we went to with Jazz and Shayla. I will like to say the food was very good. Um, the wings come air fried like I said. I think I said that before um when I was showing you the food at the restaurant, but the tacos were extremely good. Um, as you can see the name, they sell wings, tacos, quesadillas, um, loaded fries and things like that. And they're not very expensive at all. So, if you are in the Missouri City area and you want to support a blackowned business, please stop by there and uh, patronize their business. Um, now I am supposed to number one be hanging up clothes. I tend to have clothes sometimes strong every which way. I was like, "Okay, I'm going to do better in that area of my life." So, I was in here hanging up clothes, but I also am trying to find something to wear in a couple hours. We have an outing tonight. Um, we are going to celebrate Raquel for her birthday. Her birthday was on the 11th of July. Um, we are going to Joey Uptown and then we're going to do a pop in and a pop out at Urban Smoke. Now, I do know that most of the eeries that I have visited lately are moving to a more strict dress code. So, you can't go in there half dressed. Um, and some eeries don't even want you to come in there with your clothes too tight. Okay. Um, so I'm trying to be very careful with my selection of what I want to put on later on because Lord knows I don't want to drive to the restaurant and be turned around at the door. Number one, that's embarrassing. I don't wasted my premium gas and now I'm all upset and it's my fault. So, I'm trying to be very selective. Now, I pulled this out, which I've been waiting to wear this.
This is real cute. This is a little sweater situation. It is still hot here in Houston. It is still extremely hot, but I have this situation. The back is out. It kind of does like a X in the back. It came from Zara. And speaking of Zara, Zara had a sale going on currently. Hopefully, the sale is still going on when y'all get this piece of the blog. But Zara has their sale going on and Nordstrom's has their anniversary sale going on. Um, so I have ordered quite a few things. I did order my Zara stuff for instore pickup. Um, so I will here in the next few days we will be taking a trip to Zara to see if things that I order actually works out, if I'mma leave the store with it or if it's going to get returned. Um, but other than that, today has been real easy peasy. nothing um too exciting going on in my world. Um so once I get all this [ __ ] off my bed and get myself to looking like something, I pick the camera back up. All right, y'all. So, this is the look for tonight. Uh y'all should know I'm running late per usual.
Um but the top is from Zara. Like I showed y'all, it has like a little X in the back where the back is exposed.
These are some loose fitting cargo um zebra print pants from Akira. I elected to carry my Forest Street bag that they sent me. This came with the duffel bag that I used for my trip to Austin. Super super cute. Um, this little bandana that I rolled up to kind of be like a little head uh band or scarf, excuse me. This zebra print scarf I've rolled up to be like a little headband and the glasses I brought from Sheen. The glasses have like a little orange tinted lens. I would show you these shoes. They're from Pretty Little Things, but I put a little too much oil on my feet. Now my holes are sliding through like little smoky sausages. So, we going to just leave that where they are. And uh what else?
We have on black and white um um Hermes bracelets. Look, I'm trying to rush.
Cardier rings. Cardier bracelet. We have other little random rings that I typically wear all the time. And this is the look.
Now, let go. Okay, y'all. So, I've arrived. The valet line was so long that your girl went and parked Black Beauty herself, but I did pay parking because I kind of parked where can't nobody park by me. And so, uh, yeah, I thought that was better than going in the garage.
However, this was supposed to be a surprise for Raquel and I think I ruined it. I feel so bad. I kept telling Jazz, I'm so sorry. Like, I didn't know. I thought when I asked her the other day if it was a surprise, I thought she told me she told Raquel, but she said I didn't know was her response if she would tell her or not. But I'm so sorry.
It's not my fault. Well, thank you, my dear. That shell, y'all.
>> I'll get I'll kiss the birthday girl if you walk in.
>> Happy birthday.
Shut up. Don't say nothing.
>> Look, don't say nothing. I FEEL SO BAD.
>> She said low sugar.
No alcohol. Zero. It's the good life.
>> The good life. Welcome to the good life.
Margaret.
This is I just said the good life margarita. It's supposed to be with sugar-free triple set. So, it's supposed to be low in sugar.
And I'm usually not a fan for spicy.
Stay hydrated. We haven't seen you in forever.
I don't even think that the squad has seen your new pixie pack. The pixie is super cute on my end.
It's cute.
Another birthday girl. We got her coming in. I told y'all when we did she messed up. Terrible.
>> Wrong group.
Let's finish up this camp season.
>> Let's finish it.
>> Wrap it up.
>> Wrap it up and close it.
>> BECAUSE HERE THEY COME.
>> SOMEBODY'S coming up next.
>> Oh, Leo, >> baby.
>> And y'all better come here and act like y'all got some goddamn s.
>> None at all cuz it's our [ __ ] birthday.
>> Cuz you know who else is a Leo?
>> Who?
>> Grunts.
>> Oh.
>> Oh yeah.
>> I can see that.
>> I can see that. [laughter] WHY ARE WE BOTH LIKE THAT? I can see that effortlessly fabulous >> because he is a Leo.
>> Yeah, that's what it is.
>> What?
>> It's like a Leo thing. We all know who and grooms don't belong in the same place.
>> Thank you.
>> [laughter] >> I hope you [laughter] guys always get this when I come here.
>> Happy birthday.
>> No, you want to know why she's trying to give me everybody's clothes. Yeah, >> this is a frequent.
[music] >> We're going to plug it out. We're going to make this [ __ ] work.
>> [music] >> loud.
[music and singing] [music] >> [music] >> Heat. Heat.
world.
>> Hey y'all. Happy Sunday. This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Your girl is tired. Okay, I'm tied down. We got home late. I cannot go to bed right away. Let me just say this, too, because I didn't give a recap. Um, Joy Uptown is always a good time. So, if you are visiting Houston, put that on your itinerary. Um, their happy hour is good. They got adult happy meals. Their um food is good. I've never had anything that I've had to complain about. Um, it is in the Galleria area, so a little bit on the pricey side, but not too too bad. Um, if you're not from Houston now, you could do valet parking. You can park for free in the garage or you can park they have a little lot to the side of it which you also have to pay for. They charge by the hour. So that is um one of the things like I said if you have not experienced or had a joy uptown moment you could do that also after we went to Urban Smoke.
I personally um don't have to hookah all the time but I know when you go out you drinking you want to have you hookah that's fine. So, next door to Urban Smoke is Urban Social. You cannot smoke in there, but it is um a good time. It's a smaller venue. Um but they have music, drinks. Drinks are strong and good. A little bit on the price side, too. So, if you can hide you a few bottles in your wig, few bottles in your purse, few bottles in your bosom, then go ahead and do that. Um but those are the places that we visit. TB Blaze is looking at me like, "Why are you saying that?" Because I'm being real, okay? In this economy, we got to learn how to save money. They didn't mean that's there. put in your sock if you have to. But uh so Joy Uptown Urban Social or Urban Smoke, whichever one you would like to visit.
You had a bug.
>> I had a bug on me next shirt. You could go ahead.
>> I know you lying to me. Anyway, we came to gym workout numbers because um the instructor, this is her last class for this particular gym. They're going to turn the room into a Pilates room. So, we came to support. T Blaze has her parting gift. Show them the partying gift. Look alive.
Spin it around. There's the parting gift. So sweet. So considerate. And now we're about to work out. Y'all got to get J9 in these pants.
>> J got one leg in, one leg out. You better come on here, J9.
>> It sound like they started already. They started Here's [music] my ticket.
>> Y'all, I am extremely exhausted and I chose to stop by a certain somebody's house since they are on the way to my house from the gym and they're a little bit more angry today than what they usually are and very demanding.
Did you come in here and dig in my go into my my cupboard?
>> Your cupboard?
>> I got a protein bar out your cupboard cuz there was nothing on the stove.
There was not a hot meal prepared.
>> You did a break. It stopped. This is a working day for me.

>> I called you this morning though and I talked very nicely to you. I don't give a [ __ ] >> See, >> it don't matter this man.
>> Who the hell is that supposed to be?
>> Because I don't know why you're always so angry and people ask me that and I don't know what to say.
>> Probably because you show up >> because I'm here.
>> You don't pull your car in. I tell you all the time. You never know when I'm coming. Pull your car in.
>> Oh, J.

>> Yeah. Your libido is low.
>> Yeah. It's kind of like my testosterone.
>> I see. But they say my tes I had my testosterone done. You got testosterone.
>> And when And when Grump is talking about something medical, I truly believe what he says cuz he goes to the doctor at least 50 times a month.
>> It could be 30 31 days in a month. He going to persuade this cuz some of them close on the weekend. He going to call urgent care or he going to go to the doctor for any and everything. He going to self diagnose. If one doctor don't tell him what he want to hear, he going to go to the next doctor until they tell him he's sick in the head. Okay.
>> She think I catastrophize everything.
>> You do. That man go to the doctor more.
I >> I think it I turned 50 and I'm like [laughter] >> the man foot started hurting. Okay. We told y'all this already.
He immediately went to Amazon and ordered books how to live WITH GOUT. THE PEOPLE NEVER EVEN TESTED HIM OR TEST RESULTS COME BACK. HE ALREADY bought cooking books for gout, how to survive WITH GOUT AND ALL. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
Anyh who, let me I guess be patient and wait on my meal. Okay. Can y'all hold on? We got chicken. We got salad. I only got a teiy bit of rice because someone claims I messed over their rice last time.
>> I told him that.
>> I'm trying to get my stomach to shrink.
I know. And sometimes we have different goals in life.
>> You can shut [laughter] up.
>> What?
>> You >> what did I say?
>> You go too far.
>> How far was I supposed I mean I didn't think so.
>> You tried to crack ON ME.
>> I DID NOT. AND I SAID, "SOMETIMES PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT GOALS in life."
>> And that is a very true statement.
>> It may be a true statement, but it was a crack towards me.
>> I don't crack towards you. If I want to say something to you, I will say something to you. I just told you you dance as graceful as a white rhino. And I wasn't lying. And I meant what I said.
>> Baby, the people already seen me.
>> So they know you lying.
>> No, they don't know nothing.
>> They know you lying.
>> Okay. This has a good flavor.
[ __ ] I didn't give you the food to critique it. I gave you to eat so you can get the [ __ ] out.
>> I'm [clears throat] piss.
>> Yeah, >> y'all know I told you I asked Ernie to watch his dog on mouth cuz he cussed like a sail.
He going to go do research on other channels and going to tell me I was watching such and such and they cussing all up and down this channel.
>> That's right. So death would don't tell me to watch my mouth.
>> Okay.
>> Keep cussing like that.
>> This is pretty good.
>> And I don't care what goes on other people's channel.
>> We can't take the rest. Don't want to hear it.
>> Do you like me taking you out to eat and stuff?
>> HUH?
[screaming] >> I SAID FOOD. HUH?
>> I SAID FOOD AND you said, "Huh? Now you got some sense. You big beluga." Well, just a big old behemoth. What is wrong with you? Anyh who, let me finish enjoying Martin and eating my light meal. Hey y'all. Back at the house ready to lay it down. But before we do, let me just say this. If y'all can hear y'all it down in that hall with that door closed, please forgive her. Okay, forgive I I apologize on her behalf. Uh, ever since she got that game, that's all I hear. Day and night, a lot of holling and screaming at that game. Anyh who, um, there was um some information I gave y'all a couple vlogs ago. If it is your desire to own high-end, whether it be purses, ready to wear jewelry, shoes, whatever, there are sites where you can buy pre-loved. The reason that I say buy pre-loved is because most of the things don't hold their value. Um also, you know, it's difficult to resell it, especially once you buy it at um retail value. So, um if you can find anything in pristine condition and pay less for it, then that's your best bet.
Especially jewelry. Um and that's just my opinion because most of the high-end jewelry is costume jewelry. It is goldplated. It is not um real 14 karat, 10 karat, 18 karat, whatever gold um white gold, none of that. Most of it is costume jewelry. So, I just think that it makes more sense to um buy things like Cardier, which is uh real gold and it also holds its value or um just real gold period um opposed to paying the retail value for some of this costume jewelry. Now, I also told you guys about a website called Vestierre. I believe I'm pronouncing it right now.
Collective. Vestier Collective is a website that you can find a lot of high-end stuff at um under retail value.
It tells you the condition of the items, whether it's good, very good, um excellent, whatever. um and you're able to offer the price that you want to pay um opposed to paying what you see posted that the seller may want. So now these I was very shocked to get because when I say I did the lowest offer that the computer would allow, I did the lowest offer and not thinking that the seller would accept it. The other thing about other good thing about Bestier is it goes through a an authentication process where um they have experts that will authenticate the item. Um if it is not included with the price of the item, you can pay an additional $15 and they'll go through that. Now, they also guarantee if the item is not authentic, you get a 100% of your money back. So, I'm about to show you what I got my hands on. Like I said, I was very shocked that they took um the offer that I had. So, okay, it comes with this is my first time buying costume jewelry from Bestier. I have bought a Chanel bag, but not costume jewelry. So, it comes with this little tag that shows that it's been through the authentication process. It also has the name of the individual who did it.
And these are uh oh these are the Chanel earrings that I got. Can y'all see that? Super super cute. It has the double C's. It has pair of Chanel around here. Um, and then it has, now like I told you, I also have a sales associate here that I'm gonna take this to and make sure that, yeah, it is what it's supposed to be because he said with jewelry, it's kind of harder to authenticate since it doesn't come chipped. They only have the date stamp or the release. And um, this does have the stamps that I should have been looking for, but like I said, I'm going to take it over there to him anyway and just let him be a second pair of eyes to look at it. But these are super super cute. They were listed in very good condition.
And if the gold is too worn in your opinion, you can get it replated. I think that's what I saw. You can get it replated. Um, depending on how large the item is. I think I saw it. It could be as high as like $150 if that's something that you would like to do. If you can find something that makes sense to buy and have it, it may, you know, end up saving you some money. But we going to take this over to our boy tomorrow.
Hopefully he work. I'm going to have to see if he work tomorrow. I'm talking about we'll take it. All right, that's one thing we got. And then let me show y'all what else.
Look, I'm all for saving a coin. Saving a coin to look the way you want to look.
Hey, I'm all for it. Mixing highs and lows and sometimes on your hoes. I'm all for that, too.
You am I to judge? Do what you like and don't feel bad about it. [ __ ] you go bro and fresh your peers and that's something I'm not interested in doing.
All right, we got a another Chanel purchase. Again, like I said, I offered the lowest amount, the lowest that the computer would allow me to offer. Again, it has the um card here.
And I got my necklace. So, this is the necklace that I was looking for.
I'm praying that everything checks out once I give it to my essay here. It is super super cute. I saw this necklace on Nia Long on the BET Awards and I was like, I got to have it. I got to have it. I put it in Google search. It popped up on Bestier. Like I said, I was very shocked because these pieces are considered vintage as well. These pieces are considered vintage. And I particularly like vintage Chanel jewelry because it's bigger. Um I think I mentioned that before. It's bigger. The new newer pieces are very small, very dainty, and that's not quite my style.
Um and more expensive. Okay, so um these are the two pickups we got. Chanel, Chanel, Chanel. And once we get it checked out by the essay here, that will give me a little bit more piece. And if not, best gonna get this [ __ ] back. And they gonna have to give me my little coin back. Okay, but now I got to try to first of all go down this aisle and tell her to shut the hell up because I'm about to try to relax, relate, release, and go to sleep. Night squad. Hey, squad. So, happy Monday. Good morning. I got my day started off early and I'm looking a little rough, but that's okay.
We gonna be productive today. I mentioned before that Zara I don't know if all these stores do their sales around the same time cuz I'm passing up James Avery. James Avery got a sale going on. I know Nordstrom's got their um annual sale or whatever anniversary sale, excuse me. Zara also has a sale going on. So when the sale first started, I ordered a lot of stuff online. Um because I do know once this sale begins, it's Slim Pickings in the store. And normally my store of choice would be the Galleria, but I have made it up in my mind. and I'm on the going to the gallery if I have to. Okay, so we're at Memorial City to pick up our instore order. I am finally able to deplete my Zara gift card that I got for my birthday. T Blaze gave me I think T Blaze gave me that card. Not even this birthday. It may have been two or three birthdays back, maybe. I can't remember. But um I usually stick those cards in my purse or in a drawer and I hold on to them forever. Um, somebody did mention like, "You better hurry up and use the balance on those cards cuz sometimes um they will just go away or won't be readable or whatever."
I'm like, "Oh, no, no, no, no, no. We ain't going to let that happen." So, we're going to go pick up our instore order and then see what else we can find.
Cute pants.
That's cute. That's super cute.
Oh, this little salesw. Everybody going through the sales work with honey. They pretty much have everything on sale. You got accessories. You got shoes. You got these look like bottoms on this side.
So, you got denim, shorts, um mixture of skirts in here. They're about 70% off. Um this is like a 60% off.
There's a 70. Then you have shoes down here. Some of them are 50% off. Got the little ballet shoes, which I see a lot of people wearing. Got your kitten heels, honey.
These are cute little vacation sandals.
Yeah.
>> Okay. So, I didn't realize the damage that I've done. We got two boxes of stuff and she was like, "You still got one box coming."
>> Okay. I think this is super super cute.
This is a cropped faux leather jacket.
Perfect for the winter. $40. Okay.
Super super cute with some boots. It is a chocolate brown color.
Yes, honey. I think this winner. All right, y'all. So, I made it back to the house, y'all. It's hot out there. It is literally too hot to be outside doing anything. I think it was registering 103. I mean, it is scorching hot to me.
And I guess it don't pay that I have on um long sleeves, but um y'all, I have a few things I want to talk to y'all about prior to ending this vlog.
T Blaze brought it up, but I did see the show on Housewives. Y'all, if you watch Housewives, y'all know that Shemia and Porsche are um not seeing eye to eye.
However, in the last episode that I saw, Porsha and Shami um Shemia was saying something to Porsha along the lines of not allowing the children to continue to play with each other or have playdates or whatnot and Porsha was like, "No, Polar can't go over there." Do y'all feel if two people um or friends are into it or not seeing eye to eye, do you feel like the children should be brought into the bickering match? My thoughts are I don't think so. I think children need to stay in a child's place. You should not bring the children into the nonsense that y'all have going on.
Especially because Shmia did say um Dennis and Shemia's husband still have a relationship. They still see each other, go out or whatever, meet up. So, they still have a relationship. So, I feel like they could be the middle person with the exchange of the children. I think children need to stay in children's place. And um I have a daughter that's over the age of 21. I know in the eyes of the law she's grown.
She thinks she's grown, but there are still certain conversations that we not having. In my eyes, she's still my child. Um so it's just certain things we not talking about with promise. It's certain things she's unaware of. I'm just not one of them. So what are your thoughts? Do you think if you're into it with a friend? Now I did tell TB Blaze on that episode, Porsha did say something about Shamia trying to poison her. Now, that's different. If you if I can prove that you tried to cause me harm, then yes, my child can't come over there because if you do it to me, in my mind, you do it to my child. But you got to know your audience. I feel like if you've been friends or you know have somebody that you have had an extensive relationship with, it is just certain things that you should know that person will or won't do. for example, my cousin Ty. Like, it's certain things that I would have to witness with my own eyes.
You would have to record it. You would have to have some type of documented proof to say that she did because I know her. Um, and I just feel like you just got to know who you dealing with. You got to know your audience. And I feel like trust your gut. But I want to know what y'all think about that. Lastly, before we get off this camera here, cuz I am going to end the vlog here, but I think I'm going to still continue vlogging on today. Um, I think I'll pick the camera back up once I get to the gym because I've added in more strength training into my um, workout regimen.
Now, while I was doing my mom, I heard this word and it touched me so much. Um, and the word that I heard was the most high gives us the opportunity to humble ourselves where we have to have selfawareness of things that we have control over.
any outside of you humbling yourself, you're moving into the category of humiliation.
And that's what we want to try to avoid, especially at this big age. Um, I have had situations in my life that I had to humble myself or whatever. And I try to move that way at all times. Um, I don't purposely offend. I don't step on toes um on purpose. I I just don't do that. I don't condone it being done in my uh vicinity. Like you got to move around with all that all that mean girl energy or whatever. Like I don't condone it.
But that word just touched me. The most high will give you an opportunity to humble yourself and to have self-awareness and anything outside of that is humiliation. Well, how do y'all feel about that? But anyh who, close it out.
We got a pile of clothes. honey like we need some more clothes up in here. Pile of clothes. This what we got in Zara today at the sale. Now, I will say while I was in Zara, I did meet Cat Eyes. She is a subscriber. She's also a YouTuber.
Super super pretty woman. Super super sweet. We were able to exchange hugs and um yes, but the Zara sale, if you have not visited the Zara sale, I would advise you to drop in there like the entire store. I just show showed y'all a small piece of the store that um some racks in the front of the store, but there were racks in the back of the store to the side. I mean, shoes everywhere. Um accessories, purses, all kinds of stuff. They have fragrances on sale. I did collect me another fragrance. Oh, hold on. Let me show y'all.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
[clears throat] Cuz y'all know one thing you never be able to say about Jay is that she stank.
That would never happen. Oo, damn. I almost fell.
Okay, so we got Cocoa Sunset. This smells so good. This smells so good. And I don't know if I said this, but um I know I showed y'all in the store that some of the stuff has, you know, the percentage of discount you get at the register, but a lot of the times it's wrong. So, this was wrong. It said only 30%, but it's actually 70% off. This was 70% off $25.90. And yes, um, I got everyone they had on the shelf. And this is a body scrub. So, I got everyone they had on the shelf. Smells amazing. And yeah, like I said, I think I'm going to end the vlog here. I want to say coming to y'all as humble as I know how.
I am extremely grateful for this opportunity. I'm extremely grateful for those who are taking this ride with me on my journey um on my YouTube journey.
I would be nothing, the channel would be nothing without you guys. So, I am most grateful for all the genuine love and support, the words of encouragement, the motivation you guys provide. Um, I will admit that vlogging here lately has felt a lot different. Um, I do feel like I am more present on camera as far as my true true authentic self. I would give y'all my true authentic self, but I felt like some things I would hold back on. But now I'm like, this is family. Like this my squad family. We going to kick it together. We got highs, we got lows, we got embarrassing moments, we got moments where, you know, um we can give each other pats on the back or whatever. I'm just extremely grateful that I have so many people that are going along this uh ride with me and I pray that we continue to grow. Um, but with that being said, y'all got to know that I love my squad family. And until next vlog, >> [music]
