Just finished the video…. SOOOOO much stuff.
So much stuff she packed.
So much stuff she bought.
So much stuff in her super-special Owner’s Locker.
So much super-special stuff she needs to have in her pockets & in her car & in the tote bag for a 5K.
It’s crazy ridiculous!
* And regarding that super-special Owner’s Locker -
Jen: I’m so organized! I keep a running inventory on my phone of items in my super-special Owner’s Locker & of items I need to replenish & items I need to bring w/ me next time.
Also Jen: Oh, look here… I forgot I had a sleep shirt. Oh, what’s this? Oh yeah… I forgot that was in here. Oh, here are some sunglasses I bought last time that I forgot about.
Well, either, Jen, you’re lying about the running list on your phone, or you’re so scatter-brained & inept, you can’t even inventory the contents of a plastic box.
* And, regarding the shopping haul -
Could she say stuff was pricey more times? But she’s a super-special club member so she gets discounts & early entry - and, yes, it’s a lot of money to be a super-special club member & most of y’all couldn’t afford it, but the price is worth it to Jen because she has anxiety about getting into the races (I mean, I guess who cares if you’re not wealthy & have anxiety) & she needs to get into the merch early since she’s a super-special YouTube influencer & needs to film for us poor people who won’t have a chance to see the merchandise.
Also, all that Disney stuff w/ all those cartoon images all over everything!! I mean, what grown adult woman ONLY wears Disney branded merchandise?! I could see maybe buying one shirt & one ornament… but WHY all this unnecessary stuff?! And, some of it she doesn’t even like! Like the Disney princess ears she bought last race season which she stores in her super-special Owner’s Locker - she bought them just to have but likes this year’s design better. But, really, she doesn’t like Disney ears anyway because they give her a headache. So she buys just to buy.
You have a problem, Jennnifer.
The shopping haul was basically a braggy show-and-tell of even more Disney stuff she bought… and, in Jen’s super-special world of which everyone should be appropriately envious, the prices don’t matter!
Jen: Was it pricey? Yes. Did I need it? No. But did I want it? Yes. And, who cares about the money?! Because my budget (unlike you poor plebeians who are so lucky just to watch me spend all this money) allows it!
And, ONLY a mother like a Jen would gleefully show off not one but TWO $95 jackets AND an $80 spirit jersey AND ear buds AND a ring AND Disney ears AND a tank top AND a mug AND a pin AND a hair clip AND a Christmas ornament AND a watch band thingy AND a snowflake pin (why?) that she bought JUST FOR HERSELF.
And then show two dinky little plastic clip thingies that she got for FREE… And she’s SUCH a good mom, y’all. Because she’s going to bring those two dinky little plastic clip thingies home to her kids.
I mean, I’d seriously be ashamed of myself. As a consumer. As a woman. And, as a mother.
* But everything is fine.
She thought she booked a one bedroom for her laundry situation, but a studio is fine. It’s fine. She still has access to a laundry, so it’s fine.
It’s really crowded in the Magic Kingdom, but it’s fine.
A T & T is down, but it’s fine.
That loud water boat parade thing outside is really loud, but it’s fine.
It’s really crowded so she may not be able to ride the People Mover, but it’s fine. She comes to Disney so frequently, she can just ride it next time.
And, how does a Disney Fan not KNOW the name of the water parade?!
And does she realize that there are people out there who would absolutely LOVE to be able to be in a Disney deluxe resort & have a nightly view of that well-loved parade?
She was highly insufferable in this video - Look at me. Look at me checking into my deluxe resort. Look at me with my super-special Disney privileges. Look at everything I bought. Look at everything I ate. Look at my $22 refillable mug. Look at all my special race gear. Look at my Disney ears. Look at the stuff I bought just to throw away. Look at me deciding to pay extra for a Target delivery. Look at my annual pass. Look at me just wandering aimlessly around the Magic Kingdom… I go so many times that none of this is a MUST-DO for me because I’ll be back in a few months.
EDITED TO ADD - One of my fav parts of the video was Jen sadly admiring the medals that she WOULD have been able to acquire if she only hadn’t had to unexpectedly parent her kids.
Fires. Our Jen walks through fires, y’all. But it’s fine.

I’m so sorry, Bespoke Poop Shovel of Vitriol… praying the day is filled with sweet memories & love for you & your family… -
.I hate this office so much. I loved RM1 and I think it had a lot of charm and potential it just wasn't my style daycor. I think either she had a lot of help or the house came that way. I think most of her choices came from influencers, but I think her own choices were so strange. Who would want to give up valuable space in a walk-in closet for 2 large appliances? Kitchen appliance in the office closet and laundry appliances in the bedroom closet.
I loved the old office window seat and built ins. I remember she said she had those builtins made, but the way she doesn't decorate this house, I don't believe it. Also, the way all those desks in there were "stations" for dog grooming, sewing, wrapping, a reading nook and a project table reminds me of how a classroom is set up so I wonder who would influence that?
As has been documented, Jen has no personality of her own - and just copies & fangirl whoever/whatever she’s into at the moment & becomes that persona. Right now, she’s Disney Run Girl. At little bit ago, she was Car Camping Girl.
I think Jen, when she married Don, was so wanting to be accepted & included into the Ross Family & so wanting to be an “Honorary Melissa” that she tried to emulate Suzanne in everything she did - even furnishing & decorating their house in the beginning.
(Edited to add - the redoing the closet to add the washer & dryer came later & was a precursor to the selling of Don’s bar credenza & turning the living room into a playroom.)
I’m sure she asked Suzanne (& maybe also Emily) for assistance - or maybe she didn’t even ask. Maybe Suzanne offered to help or gave instructions/advice, & Jen just followed along. Maybe Don asked his mom to help Jen.
But, however it happened, Jen determined she was going to be Mrs. Rich Housewife Girl, &, because, at the time, she was also trying desperately to fit into the Ross Family & become an Honorary Melissa, she tried to do everything like Suzanne. -
.This honestly feels like the same kind of pep talks the peloton coaches do. Robin usually does the “I see you” thing, as well as many others.
Jen you have no one in your life to be proud of you or celebrate you. No one is coddling your feelings or treating you like a Kindergartener who gets praise at the most simple of things (Suze). You say these things but you don’t believe it. You NEED those validations, that supply to feel good about yourself, because you don’t feel good about yourself.
I saw a reel recently that said something like “for all those type A personalities who found validation from their good grades in school…how’s training for that marathon going??” She needs it. She has said before she loved writing papers in school. She did everything she could for that gold star, that A+ I’m sure. The problem with needing that external validation for even the most basic tasks, is that the person falls apart without it. It becomes their source of happiness. She needs to learn to be proud of herself even when no one says it to her and move on. She’s telling everyone such amazing advice! But she wishes she had that external validation still.
Whose fault is it? Did Jill and Gravy not celebrate her growing up? And then Don went over the top to always say he’s proud of her over the smallest things so she married her validation supply? Did Suze getting excited over the smallest things that Jen did, overinflate her sense of accomplishment?
Who knows. But she is awful. And I feel bad for the children.
One of things that makes me most laugh about Jen & her very fragile personality is how, in middle & high school, because she apparently loved literature & writing papers so much she, at first, thought she’d be an English major in college. But, once, she got the 1st few graded papers back w/ the professors’ critiques, she couldn’t handle it. So that’s when she switched to Art History.
And, now, she does ABSOLUTELY nothing w/ both her Art History degree & her supposed love for literature.
She has no eye for decorating or art or any kind of design aesthetics.
She can’t tell anyone anything artsy or cultural about any of the many places she’s visited.
She can’t tell anyone why w/ any kind of critical analysis she likes or dislikes a book she’s read or a play/movie she’s seen or anything significant about any book, play, movie, or piece of artwork.
And, Jen, regarding being praised for running around Disney?
Maybe the 1st time or the 2nd time or even the 3rd time.
Maybe if you overcame some kind of significant obstacle - health, financial, logistical - to get to the race.
But not still after the whatever number race this was for you… in the exact same place, the exact same race, in the exact same costuming.
Now, sadly, it’s no longer any kind of achievement at all.
Sure. Take yourself to Disney. Again. Run yourself around the parks. Again. Miss your kids’ birthday parties. Again. Buy some more lighted ears. Again. Drink some Gideon’s cold brew. Again. Have a magical time. Again.
No one is impressed. And it’s no longer anything for which you need to be praised. -
.
So that huge hair bow that will never in a million years work in Jen’s hair but that, like everything else, she HAD to have?
Would be cute in her daughter’s hair.
However…
1. Jen never thinks of her daughter in any kind of special way,
&
2. CC is too cool & already too grown up to wear that kind of bow. -
.
At least if there’s liquor in the mug, the liquor might be sanitizing it a bit. -
.So, cell outages aside, she could have taken regular photos w all her fans and posted later. Where are all the people dying to meet her?? Is there any evidence out there? Bueller?
And, actually, if Jen really, truly WANTED to make a real, authentic community (& it wasn’t something she was just claiming), she’d post the pics of the WWC community members who allegedly met her at her various “meet me here” locations.
I mean, I could see, I guess, not posting on Instagram, but in her safe WWC, she should post the pics - as a special thing for her Patreon members as a way to help them connect both w/ her AND w/ each other.
THIS is community -
“Here is Rachel & her mom! I had such a lovely time chatting w/ them at the expo!”
“I adored saying ‘Hello’ to Phoebe at Gideon’s. We both were wearing our Disney spirit jerseys, so we had to take a pic, of course!”
“Monica was the sweetest! Look at our friendship bracelets we exchanged!”
And, then, other Patreon members get to see a few of their fellow “Wonderers” & also see how Jen is connecting & sharing with her community.
Which spawns more community.
But, whatever… Jen is only ever in anything for herself.
Jen’s Patreon Members - Are you paying attention yet?

Jen is such an hilarious travesty of contradictions, hypocrisy, & lies.
Jen: I’ll sniff condescendingly at the cheese provided in the “after race” snack boxes Disney provides.
Also Jen: Let me have some of that very same cheese w/ my corn dog nuggets.
Jen: I’m just not that much of a fan of fast food, guys.
Also Jen: I actually very much like fast food & junk food, but I don’t like regular 99%-er fast food. I like my fast food from Disney World.
Jen: I don’t eat overly processed food.
Also Jen: I’ll take some of those highly processed corn dog nuggets.
Jen: I really don’t have much of a sweet tooth. My cravings for sugar ended when I turned 40.
Also Jen: Lemme have a waffle. And some fried croissant strips covered in powdered sugar & dipped in sweet berry sauce. -
.
Haven’t yet had a chance to watch the latest because I’ve been running errands today - which included ACTUAL self-care like getting my hair done.
Anyway, good gosh, Jen!
My kids are practically grown, yet I still think of them when I’m out & about… For example, while out today, I realized I hadn’t had lunch & was feeling shaky, so I ran through a drive-thru on my way home. And, guess what?! In addition to getting something for ME, I also got milkshakes for MY KIDS because I couldn’t come home w/ something for me & not also have something for them.
There’s no way in he!! I’d ever schedule a tea for just myself or even want to!!!!! I too have a daughter #LikeJen, & my daughter would be right there w/ me. -
.
Jen: My kids are 8 & 5/6, years away from drunken hookups in basement bedrooms. Yet, I’m gonna use them as an excuse for not setting up an extra bedroom in my house. Also, I’m admitting that I have no control over my kids now, & I expect that, when they’re teens, I’ll have even less control over what my kids are doing in my house, &, instead of doing the kind of parenting that would prevent drunken hookups in basement bedrooms, I’m just going to continue to not parent & just not have an extra bedroom. And, because my mind is so internally focused on myself & my multiple journeys that it has no room for any other kind of logical, sensible thoughts, I won’t even realize that kids don’t need an extra bedroom for drunken hookups in basements because the couch will do just fine. -
.
I cannot imagine being a fully grown woman of 40, sitting in my barely decorated house, wearing a Disney sweatshirt & jewelry, drinking out of a Disney mug, & playing with a Disney LEGO set complete w/ Disney figurines.
It just doesn’t compute. I know NO other woman - w/ kids or w/o kids - who is just so… stunted in feminine maturity.
It would NEVER happen, but, just for fun, pretend Jen is w/ another group of moms or even just a group of women, regardless of child status.
How would she relate… what could she even talk about?
She doesn’t watch popular TV or go see the movies everyone’s talking about. She doesn’t watch or listen to enough news to really be aware of current events.
She doesn’t seem to remember anything from any of her school years - history, art, literature…
She doesn’t menu plan any kind of meals or snacks for her kids. Sometimes she likes sushi. Sometimes she doesn’t. Sometimes she likes chocolate. Sometimes she doesn’t. Sometimes she likes coffee. Sometimes she doesn’t.
She’s not involved in any of her kids’ activities. Besides Disney & the local children’s museum (when no one else is there), she doesn’t really take them anywhere. Her kids apparently aren’t watching the latest & most popular kid shows & movies or listening to any of the more popular musical artists that the parents of the other kids would know & be talking about.
She’s not into fashion or makeup or, heck, even grooming herself.
She has hangups about letting loose & having a few drinks w/ friends.
She doesn’t know how to small talk or laugh at herself or takes any kind of joking too seriously.
She’s not into decorating her house.
While she visits Disney frequently, she can’t really tell you anything about the parks - the restaurants, the rides, what things are called, the best times to visit, the resorts, etc.
She says she likes traveling, but she’s always by herself & doesn’t really do anything while traveling and/or can’t really tell anyone anything interesting or important about any of the places she’s been & seen.
She says things like “my journey” & “ephemeral.”
I guess, she can ramble about Peleton & yoga practices & memory-keeping & Disney LEGOs… but what other grown woman has the same amount of endless hours to devote all that kind of “hamster running on her wheel” time to stuff? What other grown woman WANTS to devote all that time to that kind of stuff?
Even childless women, even wealthy childless women, can’t relate to Jen. -

I haven’t finished either the live or the planner vlog yet because… Holy Mackerel. Could she BE any more boring & inane?!
But, in the planner vlog, Jen is going on & on about the Mary Englebert planner she bought at the end of the year. According to her, she bought it mainly for the “nostalgia” because her planner/journal hobby began when she was around 5th grade & she received a Mary Englebert planner/journal/calendar thing.
Jen asks herself, “Did I need it?”
Jen answers herself, “No, probably not.”
She did NOT need it. She keeps daily appts & things of similar nature on her phone’s calendar.
The purchase of the Mary Englebert journal/calendar/planner thing was excessive & wasteful.
But, Jen, do you know WHO may have liked & enjoyed her 1st Mary Englebert planner/calendar/journal?
Your daughter, that’s who!
Do you remember the feelings you had when you were a little girl? Do you remember how you liked to get cute things like a Mary Englebert calendar/planner/journal? Do you remember how it inspired a hobby that sticks with you even today?
You obviously do since you said you bought it for yourself because of “nostalgia.”
Do you EVER have any thought AT ALL for your own little girl?
Does it EVER cross your mind to maybe, at least once, NOT purchase juvenile stuff for YOURSELF &, instead, purchase the juvenile stuff just for your children to enjoy so that they too someday can remember their childhood w/ fond nostalgia?
Yes, CC is maybe a little young for a full-blown calendar/planner/journal, but she may have liked something like a Mary Englebert sketch book or coloring book.
Jen, you are mother. You once were a little girl. You are no longer a little girl, but, guess what? Now, you have your own little girl.
I don’t know any other mother that doesn’t also usually think of her own daughter when something “nostalgic” from her girlhood comes to her mind. -
.
While I don’t think Don & Jen are ever getting back together, I wouldn’t be surprised if, when the dust-up occurred at RM3, the thought didn’t run through Jen’s mind.
I mentioned before that I bet, when Jen 1st learned about what happened, she automatically assumed that it would result in a split for Don & Tensleigh.
And, even if Jen’s not interested in getting back together in a husband-wife relationship w/ Don, I’m sure she thought that, if Tensleigh were no longer around, Jen would be welcomed back into the Ross Family & she could return to being an honorary Melissa & return to doing all the things & going to Utah w/ the Ross Family. And they’d all be one big happy family again.
I think that that’s maybe why she was so manic when she 1st learned about whatever happened - even if it meant she was going to have to full-time parent for a bit. And I’m sure she was pretending to be all supportive & loyal to Don - so that AFTER Tensleigh was gone, the Rosses would realize that it’s JEN - the 1st Mrs. Donald Ross - who has been the real, true daughter-in-law the whole time & they’d throw her a proverbial “Welcome Back” party & would be ever so grateful to Jen for all the sacrifices she’s made & for how supportive & loyal she’s always been to the Ross Family.
“It’s you, Jen. It’s always been you. Our family was just not the same without you, & we’re so happy that that other woman is GONE & Jen is back. You will always be an honorary Melissa because YOU, and you alone, complete the Ross Family.”
And, then, when Jen realized that Don & Tensleigh weren’t dunzo & that none of the above was going to happen, THAT’S when she told everyone to “F off” but in a KIND way, of course, & went from a smug, manic high to her current state of doom & gloom.

It truly boggles the mind.
She has a relatively small head but SUCH a huge mouth!
