.Her waxing on at the end about giving her grace being a very very introverted human - how exhausting it must be to be her. All the lies - all the terrible lies - all up her own ass - Good.
Also I volunteered with my 7 year old's field trip to an apple orchard on Tuesday which was 96 degrees in central IL. I'm part Vampire and was like kill me now! But her face was priceless - I'll do anything for her.
Gene - you don't deserve your kids.
Also, socializing while volunteering is easy - just like socializing while holding a job - just make small talk in-between tasks or at break time with whoever is near, and boom. People are typically there to help and will be open to talking to fellow volunteers - more than if they are at a concert with a group of friends, for example, or hiking with friends or family.
So she just doesn't want to speak to people. And doesn't want to volunteer, but that goes without saying.
FIY Jen, a donation is something you give when you do not get a service in exchange. Paying to see a show or exhibition, it's just the fee for the talent and the work of all the people that brought it to life, actors, artists and techs. -
.
About the way I would have spent all that money she spend on hiking the same trail over and over again.
A guide to an offtrail multi-day hike. You probably can even pay for the guide to carry most of your food and your stupid lawn chair (I still can't get over that).
Lots of hiking, at altitude, the view changes and it's actually something impressive to do, and qualifies as an adventure for most standards, as opposed to driving your car on paved roads to air b n b's or campgrounds and trespassing into vineyards. -
.Bakery get‘s an Early Access video to yet another boring episode of with wonder.
My take always.
That smug face
What's with that angle?
Professional Youtuber Jen strikes again. -
.
I went to a concert alone once. It's ok while the music plays if you really like the band, I guess, but all the wait before, and after, no one to have shared the experience and talk about it with, it's kinda sad.
I didn't make that mistake again. -
.Their marriage couldn't handle the tiniest of snags, honestly. They barely knew each other.
I totally agree. I'd say it's also that Jin spun the narrative that she was a do-er, overahiever, and while I don't think Don thought she was doing much at home for those ten years, he was expecting her to want to do more, and he was probably shocked when she didn't hold up her end of the deal. She probably was, too. I don't think she knew how lazy she is.I would almost bet that Don suggested at least a part-time nanny or mothers' helper, or maybe talked to Suzanne about coming over one afternoon each week so Jen could have some me time away from the kids. But martyr Jen, despite desperately wanting to not have to care for the kids, saw it as him saying "since you can't do this on your own" and was hell bent on proving she didn't need any help.
Unless of course, it was more help from Don, who was already busy taking CC to school, working a full-time job, taking care of bath time, taking CC to dance on Saturday mornings, doing all the cooking and much of the grocery shopping.
Or maybe she didn't want Suzanne to come over and give attention to somebody else than her. -
.My Mother and I had more than enough questions going across the border for one day to see Niagara from the Canadian side!!
Oh, I hope she secretly records it, uses her baby voice to tell them she's special and exempt from rules and then cries about how mean they were.
*disgusted, offended baby voice*Canadians -
.IF she is driving from Seattle, I wonder if she knows she can bring produce across the border. We got stopped with cherries coming back into the US. [I live in PNW]. The border control doesn’t play around.
I was wondering if she carries pepper spray. It's illegal in Canada.
I see her name on this list but still can't believe she who got winded going up the stairs to the treehouse thinks she's ready for this. She said in her vlog (?) that she should have been tapering off her workouts close to her event but wasn't.
She also publicly said she carries a knife for self-defense, which is also illegal in Canada.
But she's an idiot. -
.she starts talking about how people think she should always sit home when the kids are with their dad
way to be purposely obtuse. I can't stand when people do that. you make one point and they start bringing up points that were never said in an effort to deflect away from the original point which they know is true. I nope right out of the conversation when people do this
Yes! This is so obnoxious.
There’s a difference between going *anywhere but here* and sitting at home.
If she had a decent therapist, or a friend, they’d probably look at her and be like, “What do you think other single moms do when their kids aren’t with them? How do you think they cope with missing their kids?” She’d probably cry comparative suffering but it’s actually called PERSPECTIVE.
ITA.
But the crying comparative suffering and straw-manning of the argument are ways to just go "lalalala, I'll do what I want".
But among all her back-patting, she should spare a minute to think about the fact that in college, she was left alone to move a bed (or some other furniture) because she couldn't ask anyone. And then injured her back. Yes, now she can pay for that. But in the end, can she call on anyone for help? -
.A possibly stupid question about yoga mats. What is their purpose? I'd guess cushioning on hard floors and sweat protection. I have done studio yoga and we cleaned the mats after if they were studio ones. I've never bought one. Not germ phobic. In a pinch on holiday couldn't you just put a towel down and save carrying the stupid mat?
There are also tons of yoga flows/routines that are made specifically for when lying/sitting on the floor is not an option, like standing yoga routine, and bed-friendly yoga. -
.Humbly submitting these selections in hopes that our photoshop expert bakers will create a series for “Organized Jin, World Traveler.” There is more where this came from! 🙏🙏
For the last one, we now know it's not "stay calm in a perilous situation", but "remove yourself from a perilous situation". -
.I wonder when the blogging, organizing community will catch on that she’s a fake organizer? This packing video was pretty much garbage, dialed in on autopilot, nothing like Jen’s glory days of packing videos. Her clothes looked unwashed and unironed. The most unfun packing vid I’ve ever seen. Blech
I totally agree.
I normally love packing videos, and Jen used to be a really good content creator for this one very specific type of video.
But since the rebrand, it's just so grey, bland and unfun.

.
A few notes while watching the Organized HQ video :
We're very excited to see Jin the world traveler. Oh, you mean Jen. Here I was getting ready to read English subtitles to some Korean popstar. So far, Jen traveled the US and Italy. All over the world. Not to be snobbish, but with that many plane travels she's done, she could have stank up a bit more countries. I guess the Italians spoiled her plans.
She enjoys packing and packing videos have been a constant.
She hasn't made much recently.
She's being paid for this, right?
How has she not checked the model/color/availability beforehand? It's rethorical, of course she didn't, but still.
The editing is horrible. especially the footage of rolling her suitcase all cramped on the side of the screen. It's also very grey, getting lost in the sea of grey of Jen, her blue-gray luggage and her grey mausauleum.
For a weekend, she puts her crap in the hotel drawers. Again, rethorical, but gosh, Jen, why do you stuff your crap everywhere? Territorial much?
No re-wearing of socks for day and night. But they are all the same, and you know there probably wasn't any shower in-between, so why bother?
Puts her hat right on the floor, next to her shoes. Because of course.
Rainjacket lives in her car in a pouch. Folded up.
Ziploc bag o' snacks! Ah, this is so vintage Jen. I kinda feel nostalgic. It's very small though, compared to the days of yore. Maybe she shared with Don? Ok, I'll stop with the jokes.
The bag goes on the plane with her. It's a clamshell luggage. Yet, she says she normally puts the bag of liquids into her backpack, goes through security, than props her suitcase open and shoves it into it instead of putting it back in the backpack so she doesn't have to carry it. WTF? Is someone rolling your suitcase? Is a quart-size ziploc bag too heavy now? Mind you, it's just the overcomplication of the thing that bugs me here. In my days, you only opened your suitcase if you needed to remove weight and once you were at your location. I'll never understand how she likes to spread out her stuff in public places.
Of course, multiple combs. I have a truckload of long hair and I still just pack a comb. under the shower, I use my fingers like a barbarian. Works for me.
Just realized this video is 16 min long for packing TWO pieces of luggage. Sad. She used to be able to go on for at least half and hour on her purse/carryon.
Packing a duffel now. Birkenstock. No dress shoes.
This duffel bag is pretty ugly. Top notch quality as far as technical gear goes, but it's over the top for her. If I have to look at lifestyle stuff, I prefer it be cuter.
About the yoga mat. Right on top of her hat. Don't you put your naked feet on that? Sigh.
Small cooler, big cooler. I don't care. Her overconsumption used to be somewhat funny and cathartic. Lots of Target and Lululemon stuff. Now it's overpriced technical stuff. I don't like looking at it. It's boring and depressingly unnecessary for the type of adventures she goes on. -
.She took a two hour bath. How is she not a raisin at the end of that?!
ETA she says the next morning she also took a "bath shower" and had a morning bath. Wth?
I wonder if she is again overcompensating our snark on her personal hygiene by l=making up something and not realizing how stupid she sounds?
She does it all the time, and it never makes any sense. -
.Poor Winnie. Jen is gonna get tired of her wheelchair and extra needs fast.
It will be "Winnie prefers to drag herself on the floor without the wheelchair, folks!"
Just like she's so afraid of weather she needs to be locked in a brightly lit closet all night.
Jen is such a heartless abusive sadist, she doesn't realize how horrible this makes her look and puts it all out there.
Or she truly is a psychopath and revels in knowing she can put it all out there and nobody does a damn thing about it. -
.I really don’t think Jen saw herself in this position after the divorce. Don would mention thinking Jen was out of his league and I think Jen agreed…. because she was more physically attractive than him back in the day. I truly think she thought she’d have no trouble meeting someone else. Then Don was the one who found happiness before her… with someone who appears to be everything Jen is not. I think that Jen was truly shocked and never saw that coming. Seeing someone appear to replace Jen pretty seamlessly and do everything better has to be rough for her.
Now she’s trying to make herself interesting in other ways. She’s an outdoorsy camper girl now. Something I never would’ve predicted from the girl with a walking pharmacy who carried everything one might ever need for simple errand trips.
Also, from Tens’ perspective. The fact that this message board even exists has to feel so weird. I do wonder if she followed Jen back in the day and saw Don on a dating app and swiped for fun and then actually liked the guy.
That's what makes Jen's downfall so entertaining as a character in her Youtube channel. She was super smug, about her place in the Ross family, about her life as a divorcee, and then, just sat there and waited for it to sort itself out, and was shoked when it didn't happen.
Yes, she's still filthy rich. But it's kinda fascinating to watch as hard she fell when she had all the tools not to. Even her 800 K house is amongst the worst choices she could have made for herself, which is endlessly funny.
