Happy Fall!

My favorite season.  Yay!

  2. Just snagged some apples this weekend (along with muscadines and a huge $7 box of canning tomatoes). It's still getting into the 90's here for the next 2 weeks, but it feels a little like fall for about 30 minutes in the early morning :)

    1. Even though we only get two seasons here in So Cal, I know what you mean about it suddenly feeling like fall...or even spring. Twice a year, and it always happens in the kitchen, it'll be morning, and the window is open, and things just smell and feel different. It's almost eerie. I used to think I was crazy to feel this sensation, but I looked it up and sure enough, it's a true phenomenon...you really can sense a change in the seasons.

  3. Happy Fall to all of you here! We're going to have a frost this weekend, so busy covering some garden plants and harvesting others that won't make it. Need to clean out the coop and put the litter on the garden for winter. Chickens are molting, so no eggs. Leaves are turning. Can't wait for the brilliant red of my Burning Bush plants. Fall is my favorite season! What are you all doing this fall???

      I love fall! Though I'm more stuck inside while my hubby is outside working on protecting the fruit and nut trees from deer, prepping the garden for winter, fencing, etc. I'm just crocheting and knitting and counting down the days until my baby comes. He's not due until the end of next month, but if the Braxton hicks and other symptoms are anything to go by, then he'll be making his appearance sooner than that!

      It's called buying followers. JFW has done it before to look like she's more popular. Once again, it's her manipulative marketing to get new donators.

      And fall is also my favorite time of year. I look forward to the foliage, cooler weather, and even Halloween. I bought a bag of fresh candy corn yesterday, too. But it didn't last long. Once my husband discovered where I'd hid it...

    3. How can you tell she is buying followers?

    4. Anon 1:26 - No one can know for sure, but it's a common thing for account holders to purchase foollowers for pretty cheap. And a lot of fake people do this.

      Personally, my gut instinct tells me they are purchased. (Because) I tend to glance at her numbers each time I peruse her Twitter. And most of the time, the numbers go up and down in the single digits. A few lost, a few gained. But every once in a while, she gets a big surge that's hard to explain. But then, consider Occam's Razor. Did she just magically happen to write something so amazing that appealed to a bunch of people who all suddenly wanted to follow her? Or did she just buy them?

      Delete
    5. Failed Cubicle WorkerSeptember 25, 2019 at 2:03 PM

      I second what you said. It's just an educated guess since her numbers go up and down more frequently than a scale. So I strongly suspect that more than a few followers were bought by her to appear like a popular person.

      :) Thank you! I'm hoping this delivery will be as easy as the last one was! Last one I was in labor for a few hours, water broke, then pushed for five minutes and had a healthy 9 pound 5 ounce baby. Wasn't the biggest baby born that morning, but was the fastest!

    2. Concerned Homesteader, we are birthing twins almost. My first (and only) labor was brought about by my bag being broken on accident. After being induced, I only suffered thru 2 hours of labor and pushed less than ten minutes for a little 5 pound 5 ouncer who was born one month early. And then I later heard stories about women who go thru 20-30 hours of labor and loads more pain. How do they do it? My hat is off to all of those women. I can't even imagine. And I admire any woman who goes thru thru the birthing process more than once. Cuz that's really something!

  7. Happy Fall! Our September-October weather this year is ranging in 70s-low 80s, with cool evenings. It's beautiful outside, terrific for hiking, riding horses and generally enjoying nature. We definitely need more rain though!

    At our farm, we schedule big projects before weather turns cold, and so far we've completed barn repairs, cut down trees and replaced about 900 feet of fencing. The summer veggie garden is slowing down, although fall crops like pal choi, kale and Swiss chard are loving the cooler temps. I haven't yet prepped gardens for winter.

    You know, every fall, I play the game of trying to keep container plants around as long as possible. I cover them at every hint of frost, figuring bees need any flower they can get. Most flowers don't do well inside, with exception of hanging geraniums, begonias, lemon grass, lemon verbena, rosemary and coleus. I love torenia and mandevilla but can't seem to successfully keep them inside!

    Our local farmers have completed most of harvests; I belong to a CSA for extra vegetables, buy properly raised pork and chicken from a nearby farmer and have several orchards nearby. The farmers who succeed (even with small acerage) diversify.

    Out local orchard no longer have cows, but they now raise many types of organic veggies (greenhouse grown) and supply restaurants and homes. They offer fruits most of the year, right now six varieties of apples, fresh cider, baked goods and sauces. They improved a scenic portion of their farm and rent it for weddings, parties and business functions. Several times a year, they create a farm-to-table event as a fundraiser.

    Living in New England in early fall really is splendid. Weather is cooler, humidity almost non-existent, leaves are turning brilliant colors and until the leaves fall, work is somewhat reduced for us...as we prepped during longer summer days.

    Enjoy the weather wherever you are!

    4. Wow, your Fall season activities sound just divine, Poods. And your lifestyle so idyllic! The farm-to-table event sounds awesome. Gotta admit, even Pember Patty's Instagram entries have me envious for those farm fresh foods like eggplant, cheese, and that fresh tomato, beet and cucumber photo...I had to restrain myself from licking my computer screen.

      I also really enjoy reading about all you guys here who live in states that are northern, mid-west and east coast. You guys actually get real seasons -- although you can keep your humidity -- while here it was freakin' 90˚ today with temps dipping down to 80˚ later this week, if we're lucky. We also don't get the fireworks-like tree colors you all have. But hey, we have the Kardashi...eh, never mind.

  8. Can someone explain her book stuff to me? She's always talking about "book proposals" and "sample chapters" to submit to her agent. So am I understanding this right? She HASN'T actually written the books - not the falcon book, not the horse book, not the most recent memoir - she has only written proposals for them? So when she says that her agent is "shopping around" her book, what she means is that she has a book proposals with two sample chapters that her agent is pitching to publishing companies. And then if a publishing company bites and wants to buy the book, she then gets an advance to finish the book. Do I have this right?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yes, that's pretty much how it works for nonfiction. For novels you need to have a completed manuscript, but for nonfiction you do a proposal and chapters.

      Delete
    2. From what I understand from recent posts of hers, she made mention earlier in the summer of having a book proposal ready to send to her agent. Now she's talking sample chapters and at first I thought that meant correcting whatever she sent in that the agent sent back for corrections. But now it looks like she's just very behind on getting the proposal in. Of course she is...cuz she did nothing but play all summer.

      But one thing's for sure: She frequently mentions book deals and book proposals to keep all her foollowers tEthERed TO hEr PoTEnTiaL so they'll keep sending her donations.

      Delete
    3. Generally authors start with a pitch letter, getting the agent interested in the manuscript (this might be a phone discussion if you are on good terms and close to your agent). If you already have an agent, you get a green light on that from your agent and YOUR AGENT submits the pitch/sample chapters to publishers, attempting to secure a book contract and an advance. Once THEY'VE greenlighted it and given you your advance, you generally have a deadline you have to work towards for publication. You submit, and editing comes. You make or at least review the edits and resubmit. This can go on several times. Once the manuscript is the best it will be, it gets the final OK from the publisher and it goes to press. At this point you're expected to run around making appearances to promote the book. You generally don't make anything the first two or three years your book is out, as your money goes towards paying back the advance. But at a certain point, once that's happened, you get a small check from your publisher each quarter. Jenna doesn't talk about this, but she is still making some amount of money from her published books. How much? It depends on how many people are still buying her book. Could be four bucks a title, could be $100, but probably not more than that.

  9. Did I imagine her twitter bio at one time stating outright that she was either gay or queer.... but that now it doesn't? Still has the rainbow flag in it... but lots of straight people use that as a show of solidarity and a welcoming community.

    My guess is that the "queer" was to test the waters, and when she received encouragement, she turned the faucet on full blast with "gay" but then went on a few dates and probably realized that she'd have to dive (😏), so she backed off and is now a bi, err, begsexual rather. In that she'll date whomever the hell will will put up with her shit and pay her bills.

  11. Totally off-topic, so I apologize, but I just wanted to explain a few weird typos that I just made. I'm dyslexic and also have dyscalculia, so I make it a point to re-read my entires for clarity before submitting them. And then I re-read them again, after I post, to find anything that I missed so I can delete it if necessary, just so I don't confuse anyone with goofy wording.

    Anyway, I just found that I wrote, "thru thru" and "will will" in two different posts on accident. I have no excuse to offer. My mind just does weird stuff like that. I'm also a serial abuser of the comma. And I refuse to place a period or any exclamation point within quotation marks. It just feels wrong. But hey, I've never purposely shocked a pig. Or added water for spite. Nor have I allowed a chicken to freeze and die in a driveway. So there's that.

    Twitter Twaddle:


    "If I ever make it big I'm going to invest in some seriously comfy blankets. Please recommend your comfiest blankets! I need some inspo, baby!"

    Of course, she could look online for reviews and find her own. What she really wants is for someone stupid to send her a new cashmere blanket. She'll probably "find one at her dump" soon in mint condition. Or maybe it'll be another "SURPRISE SWEATSHIRT!!!" "gift." Her condescending "baby" and "darlin'" are way overused. Dream on about "making it big" with crappy content and daily begging to support herself.

    1. Yep. She wants someone to send her a blanket.

      Because only someone who has made it big can afford a comfy blanket.

      And in order to recommend a comfy blanket, you must own a comfy blanket, ergo, you have made it big.

      And if you have made it big, you must share with wealth.

    3. SOTM, exactly. I think she's struggling to find the next "thing" to hoodwink $$$ out of people.

      She's tried straight, queer, gay, bi, undefined. She's stalked celebrities left and right. She's been Christian, Buddhist, heathen and pagan (I think).

      She was an obnoxious vegan and now She's an obnoxious omnivore who gleefully hurts and eats animals. ("Take THAT, all you sissies with a conscience for animals!")

      She's been feral/badass (archer, shooter, martial artist) who's laughingly never succeeded at hunting and is seemingly TERRIFIED of everyone and everything in her rural town.

      So, hmmm, what shall she pick??

      I think she'll double down on falconry, but without the pretense of doing it to "help" the birds. We know that narrative was always 💩 💩 💩. She's too self-centered to care about wildlife. It was always about her wanting to look cool, be cool, and know something no one else cares much about. Also, she wanted to generate a book deal and lots of $$$. She thought falconry ("This girl plays with sharp objects.") would be the golden ticket. With Chris' story about running with a donkey getting media play, she must be secretly pissed!

      Why do I think this?
      First, she removed the link to Chris' fawning (but wildly inaccurate) NYT article about her falconry: you remember, the tall tale of how she keeps falcons captive to save them? The lie that she safely releases them each Spring?

      Either NYSDEC thought it was too-self serving (doubtful), Chris asked her to take it down (doubtful), or she removed it because she's ticked at Chris or is changing her narrative.

      I'm going for changing her narrative.

      She's been hunting another bird for weeks (great way to waste time for a broke loser), and she's been posting AMA questions about falconry on her IG account.

      Her 'live like fiction' needs more stories and new raptors will do the job! Right now, she depends on two old horses and riding on someone else's property (the mountain). She barely posts about farm animals, can't even keep her chickens laying eggs (if they are even still alive) and surely cannot sell meat shares locally since people have figured out that bad living = bad meat.

      Her life is dull and the opposite of feral and/or exciting. Only massively enabling readers (and Twitter drop ins) are likely to send her money. Posting about personal angst, insecurity and stress gets old after awhile. Donor fatigue follows.

      Thoughts on my theory?

    4. Fantastic observations and theory. It really is curious why she un-pinned that article and made no mention of why. That's her claim to semi-fame. Something she wouldn't have taken down unless told to. Agreed.

      Things she hasn't tried: $cientology, water aerobics, speed walking, taxidermy, bookbinding. Heck, she could even message Instagram influencer models to offer her Photoshop skills for cheap. But taxidermy is her best bet...she can get started with all the dead animals on her property.

  20. While FFF was querying social media on what movies to watch, Merlin and Mabel escaped her crappy fencing and ran off the property.

    1. I cannot comprehend those horses willfully escaping any place unless there was not enough feed, and the feed they have makes it so they can climb over the fences.

      Here's a thought: instead of frittering time away, perhaps she could fix the fcuking fencing! You know, like a real farmer?

      And you are right DM, horses generally don't leave their home surroundings if there's plenty to eat. But we can see her fields are overgrazed, likely manure-ridden, and horses prefer eating uncontaminated food. Likely the only reason her horses are willing to go to the top of her neighbor's property is because she lets them eat clean, green grass (his grass).

    2. Anon7, the Argyle Brewing Company photo was unusual. It showed stacked firewood in a semi-decrepit barn.

      Is it her stacked firewood? In her barn? Did they stack the firewood for FFF because her feral hands don't do maintenance chores? Did someone move the firewood into her unused barn?

      Are they promising her free firewood? You know, slung luck after her publicly begging?

      Or are they trolling? Here you go, something to cheer you up...firewood that others have.

      And speaking of firewood, I know if I begged and worried about firewood to keep my hovel warm in the winter...and happily bought a cord of it...I'd certainly waste wood having a bonfire on a warm fall evening.

      She must mention "mailing that mortgage check this week ASAP!" to tell her PayPal poodles not to delay donations. I find it funny how it's "that" not "my." It's subtle but it implies that it's not her responsibility. JFW is a master at marketing manipulation.

  26. Autumn is my favorite season, and I live in an area where it shows all of it's glories--when it is in the mood. I fear this year of overly hot days and lack of rain that it's going to be less than perfect. Still, I will enjoy it as I find it. Heavy clay mugs that come from these noble hills with apples passed through a functioning press from 1910. The crackle of the fire, and the promise of warmth in snow, and the crisp fruity bounty of the golden bough. Oh wait. I lost my thought thread.

    Yeah. Lots of raking, lots of acorns. I saw a male deer with a twelve point rack out eating in a neighbor's yard. They usually stay hidden in the city woods while the females and their young come into the neighborhoods. I have a nice pile of doo to clean up tomorrow before I cut the grass.

    This weekend I will make up a recipe I found in the NY Times called "Cinnamon Apple Quick Bread with Apple Cider Glaze."

  27. I was curious after reading JW's current excited thread about T Swift's "bury the hatchet" saying so I googled part of it and found it earlier from a book published in 2013 by Kyle Taft ("Confess to Stress: A Christian Teacher's Approach to Defeating Stress").
    "We go as far as to bury the hatchet, but before we leave the graveyard, we draw a detailed map with directions on how to find it!"
    This predates T Swift's song, which was released in 2017. And this thought/saying probably existed even before that in some form.

Also in the category of misleading (and stealing really), she almost never puts photo credit or artwork credit in the text of the tweet or Instagram post where she shares it, but will drop it in a comment below.

    1. My pet peeve is people, like FFF, who misuse nylon "rope halters".

      These halters are made of unbreakable nylon. They are very cheap and unbreakable. They are used in "natural horsemanship training", where the trainer attaches a rope to the nylon halter and controls the horse. There isn't even supposed to be a clip that attaches to the halter. The reason? The knots on the halter hit horse pressure points/nerve and transmit a stinging sensation if used incorrectly. Leaving the rope halter on - or worse attaching it to an object - is even more ignorant. If the halter catches or gets hung up, it won't break, but instead acts like a knife and can cause serious damage to a horse's head/neck.

      I won't post any links, but for brave souls, Google "accidents with nylon horse halters" or equivalent.

      Horse trainers who actually know something use leather or breakaway halters - or attend to their horses - for a reason. It's called SAFETY.

      Yet again, FFF shows her ignorance.

    4. Can someone explain to someone who's only been on a horse once, for about 20 minutes when they were 14, exactly what is wrong with the rein holding? The Pig Shocker posted another pic of the same chick holding the reins awkwardly but I don't understand what was going on in either photo.

      Delete
    5. Anon7 The normal way to hold the reins is with the part of the rein connected to the bit, entering the hand under the little finger, with the excess rein exiting the hand between the thumb and forefinger. That gives you much more finesse in handling the reins and sending messages to the horse because you can slightly turn the hands or loosen the fingers to apply or release pressure in a much subtler way. Google pictures of people riding english and you will see what I mean.

      Delete
    6. The rider is "plow reining" the horse, which is exactly how it sounds - gripping each rein in a fist and essentially pulling the horse in the direction she wants it to go. It's a very forceful and "clunky" way to control a horse, and puts a ton of pressure on the mouth. Both painful and irritating. English riding holds the reins the way Karen described above, western riding holds both reins in one hand and a well-trained horse responds to the feel of the reins touching their neck, no force necessary.

Someone mentioned "direct or plow reining" above...even those reining methods require the correct holding of the reins: Pick up one rein in each hand with your palms facing down towards the horse's withers. Run the rein in between your ring finger and your pinkie finger. Reins are NEVER held like this inexperienced rider does. AAARRRGGGHH

    These riders need to be lunged sans reins in order to develop a secure seat and QUIT using the reins to hang onto the horse.

    I wondered why she doesn't share all those pics on Twitter or her blog, and then answered my own question: she can't beg poor with those pics as they involve a LOT of playing and social time. As much as they would initially garner her new followers, I think people would quickly call foul on seeing all her time spent on hobbies while bemoaning how poor she is and how desperate she is for donations.

    I suck at taking social media ready photos, whereas she obviously has a knack for it. instead of applying that talent honestly, it's just another example of an opportunity she is squandering.

It's been unseasonably warm here, so why waste the money?

      Funny, when I hear "Lady", I assume a person means a woman with title of nobility, or the wife of a lord, a baronet, laird, or a knight.

      It feels like my Lady friends are slung around as a pet name for online poseurs.

      Knock it off. Sh** works both ways!

    3. Agree with all above.
      As a heterosexual female, I will always say girlfriend or girlfriends for my gal pals.
      JFW, don't assume they're speaking romantically. it's all in your perception - not anyone else's problem.

    4. Pretty sure we've seen the Pig Shocker refer to Gibson as her hubby or man -- Merlin as well -- she once blegged she went on a date with a British fellow who turned out to be the horse.

    5. It's also just SO entitled: "*I* don't have a girlfriend so none of you are allowed to use the word!" That's like beyond gatekeeping, that's just wanting people to alter their language so she doesn't feel bad.

    6. Or she's trying to start a Twitter conversation that goes viral so she can attract new eyes to her account, gain more foollowers.

  53. So...what is going on with her soaps these days? While they never looked stupendous, they didn't totally look terrible...until now.

    Here's a pic of how they used to look (darker, nicer color, smoother etc):
    https://twitter.com/coldantlerfarm/status/1155113797906030592

    Then today, a foollower posted a pic of ones she just bought:
    https://twitter.com/NJPitchford/status/1180596477623590914

    The quality doesn't look the same, the color is stark, ugly, there are holes, it doesn't look rich or lux at all. It looks coarse and brittle. And she wants $5-6 a bar for this shizz? If she was using melt-n-pour before, then what is she using to make this nastiness?

    1. If melt and pour is too hot the texture gets weird. Too much time in the microwave.

    2. These are available by multiple vendors on etsy' . She probably buys and resells. This would result in a bit of wear and tear

    3. Fakefarmer, you are right! I saw goat-shaped soaps (same mold) as well as same type of "Handmade" soaps. I didn't waste time looking for Celtic knot,soaps, but see Etsy offers penis-shaped soaps, including her stolen-joke of offering dicks-in-a-bag.

  55. "If I make a sale I'll spend $5 of it on a mug of cider and listen to the Celtic Music Jam at the brewery”

    This is so manipulative. The impression she is giving is that she is working so hard and she will only allow herself a little frugal treat if she makes her sales goal. Which is to encourage people to just pitch in five bucks (or more) as an atta girl. If she can't convince a few people to give her $100, maybe she can convince a lot of people to throw $5 her way.

    1. That's so true. Her "frugal little treat" happens all of the time. Whether or not she's made a "sales goal." It's like I've said before here, she's a master at manipulative marketing. And also trying to falsely portray her image as "a scrappy, hardworking gal living alone on the side of a mountain!" What a bunch of bull.

    2. I think these dollar amounts are subliminal suggestions. They must work because she's been using them for years.

    2. I say who cares too. She probably lies about it anyway. She may be caught up, she may be behind but I don't believe anything she says.

      Delete
    3. She definitely said she missed the September payment. And I'm pretty sure she was also behind in August as well. Being on that farm must not be very important to her if she's not willing to get a real job in order to keep it.

      Delete
    4. It may or may not be true that she is behind. Who knows? I'll never forget when she received the $15,000 from Kickstarter. She said the farm was "saved". Three months later she was whining about being behind in the mortgage. She lies so much you can't believe anything she says.

      Delete
    5. OK, so IF she is telling the truth -- and that's a big "if" -- she's behind two months now. Just checked this blog and in early September she stated that she didn't make August. And earlier this month she said she didn't make Sept either.

      Or maybe she did, and as others have suggested, she's just begging for play money. But in a tweet today she claimed she became "dead-ass scary broke" so things are getting interesting over at Whackadoodle Horseshit Farm.

    6. Probably all lies. If I was her parent I'd pay the mortgage to keep her out of my basement. But I'm sure the scrappy homesteader wouldn't admit that.

  57. Some fresh new begs today by the 🐷 🔌 ⚡️on Twitter:

    ❝ Trying to make one sale today to be safer going into Monday. ❞

    ❝ This is a really crucial time to support this farm if that is something you are inclined to do. ❞

    ❝ This farm makes it on sales like this - handmade goatsmilk soaps, meat shares for next season, pet portraits and logos too! ❞

    And then on the bleg she posted that tired "Help and subscribe - I'm just like NPR" bullshit. She also posted about how the fencing was down and the pigs got out. Again. But this time she made a point to say how she went out of her way to make things comfortable for them instead of zapping their noses. Riiiight.

    1. That, in a nutshell, is exactly why so many of us are interested in her story. It's simply unbelievable that a grown woman would behave this way.

  59. Two logo sales today, and she'll go to the movies. How about saving those dollars for the next mortgage payment? Or firewood? Or hay? instead of begging for help with those necessities later?
    No, instead just let your enablers see how valuable their hard-earned cash is....you can enjoy a first run movie and a night out because they spend the day in a cubicle.

  60. Even if Jenna loses her house and "farm", I bet Patty would let her (the horses & the dogs) move in and mooch off of her forever. She'd be able to still do her extreme closeup photos and pass it off as Cold Antler "Farm". This isn't ever going to end.

    1. I think you're right. If she lost the "farm" she'd eventually make it home to Ma and Pa's basement, but initially she'd have to go somewhere...so Patty's place would be a safe bet. But I don't think it would last long, as the Pig Shocker would certainly wear out her welcome right quick via her laziness.

    Nope! Not enough inventory, or a reliable vehicle for travel. I make them to order. One step at a time.

    Most locations don't require a lot of inventory. You can apply to bend at the nearest location. I think people would love them!

    No pressure but what’s the ETA on my order?


    Oops-being called out on some BS today. You can’t post that you are about to take yourself to a new release movie with the money you just begged for, if you are this behind on orders. Glad she is being called out publicly. She can’t block that because she owes the lady some soap!
    Also, as a soap maker, I am looking at the recent photos of her soaps and she has to be using melt and pour. Cold process soap is so thick and wholesome, even if you pour it in fancy ornate molds you will not get these air bubbles that appear all over her soaps. The picture someone posted yesterday of soap they bought from her looked terrible.

    1. Lol, I just saw that: "No pressure, but where TF is my soap?" BTW, that was in response to this tweet:

      ❝ GOAT MILK SOAPS HERE! Trying like mad for a sale today. You reading this right now, saying "What the hell, I like soap." and sending a DM is how I keep the lights on. Be my "What the Hell" today. $6 a bar! ❞

      So Jenna is shouting for people to buy her soap and she's "trying like mad" to make a sale -- but why isn't she "trying like mad" to fulfill past soap orders? And then she announces she wants to go to a movie? No wonder that chick asked where her soap order is, cuz clearly it's not high on a list of priorities. Would love to know what month she paid for those soaps. Sept? Aug? July?

  62. Twitter Twaddle:

    ❝ I twisted my ankle, got dumped, became deadass scary broke, and it's pouring rain all within 24 hours. Also, there's no wine in this house. I should be asleep by 8PM by emotional forfeit. ❞

    😱

    Funny she mentioned being dumped, as I was just reading an article about young people and why they are so consumed with documenting every little thing on their Instagram. And then I remembered those pics the Pig Shocker posted of her at the coast with her date. There was something about it that seemed strange, but I couldn't put my finger on it until now.

    You don't take pics on a first date! Not to sound like a gatekeeper, but it's a strange thing to do. So I imagine that coast girl felt the same. And the fact that she posted right away on her IG was an act of desperation. Coast girl no doubt found it odd that PS would whip out a camera and ask her to document her standing on the beach on a first date. And who could blame her?

  63. Uh oh, someone asked about delivery of her late soap order, and another person asked why FFF doesn't run her business like - uh - a business. Quick! CHANGE THE SUBJECT.

    1. Yeah, I'd be asking for my soap order too if all I saw was an internet beggar riding horseys all day long. If this chick is asking, then it's safe to say it's probably been more than one month. So what is PS thinking when she receives payment? "Oh, I'll fulfill this order next week" and then forgets about it? Can't wait to see if she responds or deletes that comment.

    2. 😆 😂 Aaaaannd...it's been deleted! Lmao.

      And that foollower was fast-tracked to Jenna's 💩 list. Just like that! I mean, how dare she publicly asked where her soap order is? Doesn't she know how BUSY Jenna is?
