to happen, and I had alreadybought the flight tickets and I was coming
(03:20):
home and your ex wife, whoyou were married to at the time,
I hadn't seen since we graduated highschool together, and the reunion got canceled.

with me and my husband Blake fordrinks. Yeah, we'll hang out,

then I flew back a couple ofother times because it was around the fall,
so there was like Thanks Ago GivingDay weekend. That was the first
time that we first time it wasyour birthday weekend. And then because the
joke is, we were going togo do something for my birthday after the
reunion because it was that weekend.The joke is Blake always says, I'm
(04:01):

I went back home, and Iflew back a couple of times for the
holidays, and we hung out afew times, me, you and your
ex wife and all the ready again, I mean we just meet up at
random places and yeah, like drainsor whatever. Well, I was going
through a meltdown, oh, becausethis was I was going through a meltdown
(04:26):
because I had been on again,off again relationship with this guy for the
past five years that I loved verymuch, but we just it wasn't a
good relationship. And when I metyou, I was in the middle of
my first breakup with him, andI kind of went off the rails and
put all my stuff in storage anddecided I was going to go live out
of a tent for a couple ofmonths with my dog Stevie Nicks at the
(04:49):
time. Yeah, she decided itwas time for a walk about. I
watched Into the Wild and I waslike, this is a great idea.

road trip. Yep, because youwere going to be staying in very remote
wilderness locations. I lived out ofa tent in the middle of nowhere.

McDaniel Tree Services. If you needa tree, come down yea in
the surrounding areas. McDaniel Tree Services, Yam, Alabama, not make Michigan
or Tennessee or mcdee trees on Instagram. I bought a log cabin. You
own a tree business, and Ihad a fireplace, and I was like,
hey, will you bring me astump to chop wood on? YEP?
I was like, hey, Iactually we just cut down this giant
(09:30):
freaking pine tree that I've got astump from that. I know we were
fixing to just load up onto thetruck, and I was like, I'll
bring it over. Can I tellyou I did not expect what all it
was going to entail when you broughtthis stump. You had like this trailer
hooked to the back of your truckwith your skid steers. How did you
expect me to bring something big enoughto chop wood on? I didn't realize
how big the stump was going tobe there. The stump is about three
(09:50):
and a half or four feet across. It is a big ass and two
to three feet tall. So thenyou showed up and you pulled out the
skid steer and had to pick upthis stump with your your like man equipment,
and that was when I was like, oh, damn, he looks
good, because your butt when you'restanding in the skid steer looks it looks
just like it does what I'm standinganywhere else. You have a great butt.
(10:13):
And I hadn't seen you. ButI hadn't seen you in like four
years at that point. So youshowed up, okay, five years whatever.
I hadn't seen you in a longtime at that point, and you
showed up, and you dropped offthe stump, and I walked you around
and showed you the house and thepark. Well, you were walking behind
me the whole time till you getyour butt. No, you were walking
(10:33):
behind me at one point at onepoint, but the majority of the time
you were like, yeah, it'sover here, and go that way,
and you're just pointing, like gothat way, I'll follow you. You
definitely looked at my butt. Ithink you grabbed my butt. I no,
you pinched it, No such thing, Yes you did. You can't
have a very specific butt pinch anyway, do I. You left, and
(10:54):
then you're saying that you could tellthere was between my butt pinch and somebody
else's butt pinch. If you blindfoldedme and let three different guys grab my
butt, I could tell you whichone was. You. Do you know
why you'd be able to turn onethousand dollars because I would break their hands
and I would be the only SoI left. I went and got Mexican
after you left and brought the sumpand I had some margaritas. How many?
(11:15):
By the way, how many margaritas? Is some too? And I
texted you and I was like,by the way, you looked good tonight.
YEP. I got that text andI was like, oh, yeah,
I'm in Where were you when Isent you that text? What were
you doing? I was probably playingpool. I don't remember the next text
after that. It was we wentback and forth for a few days of
(11:39):
like should we flirt? Should wedo anything? Should we do this?
And I was like, we'll justkeep it casual. We'll just you know.
It was like just like like we're, you know, starting a date
to see if we decid we wanta date or not. No. They
we were like I was like no, because I still didn't want drama with
the fact that I knew who youwere married to before, So I was
(12:03):
like that still hangs around sometimes.Yeah, we won't talk about that,
but I was like, like,it doesn't hang around us, but it's
in the ether. But I didn'twant to deal with the drama, so
I was like, we'll just hookup and say nothing to nobody. And
like a week into that, Iwas like, I want to have your
babies and marry me. And wenever actually said I love you until we
(12:24):
decided to live together, which isalso true fairly quick after dating, but
that's another story. If you've knownsomebody for five years and you start dating
them, the dating process goes byreally fast. Well, I fell in
love with you, I really did. I didn't think you fell in love
with me five years ago. Justsubmit it. No, I spent so
(12:46):
long trying not to love you thatyou showed up and you were so great
in my life. This is goingto be sappy, and I didn't realize
how sappy it was going to be. I haven't heard this. Tell me.
Well, you were super sweet andyou were not like the relationship I
had before you was super toxic.And I think that you and I both
bonded over having toxic relationships before wefound each other. I mean that is
(13:09):
true. We did. It wasso bad, and you were the exact
opposite of the person I had dated. Like you, you opened the door
for me, you cooked steak forme, You helped, like you came
over and helped me. You helpedme hang a big screen TV in my
bedroom that had been in the floorfor a year since I had lived in
the cabin. And like I haddated that and there that long. Yeah,
I didn't realize that it had beenthere, that I didn't tell you
(13:31):
how bad the relationship was before that, And so I don't know. I
just fell in love with you.You were you are not the kind of
guy I typically go for. Sowhat you're saying is that previously your standards
were so low that anybody could havemade you fall in love. No,
I just I fell in love withyou. I love you well, I'm
kind of a big deal and you'rehandsome. Just ask me. I'll tell
(13:52):
you. He's only saying that onthe podcast. You get home and you'll
be like you you are very humble. You're more humble than you are making
