.If she exercises as much as she claims she does, her diet really and truly is crap.
Her existence is so depressing to me. Imaginary friends, no social interaction, drowning in a sea of boxes and bins, loveless marriage, and self-worth tied to her weight.
Not to mention the chronic eye pulling syndrome.
I love your diagnosis! If that isn't a real illness, it should be. She def has it. LMAO -
.
Feet still firmly planted on the train after this.
She's always been very intentional with that background with the wrapping papers and photos. If she hadn't added the Christmas themed papers, I wouldn't think anything of it if she didn't show the xmas cards. But she intentionally changed out the papers and didn't up up the cards. This is seasonally appropriate Jen we are talking about here. She can't bare to look at it (AKA Don). CHOO CHOO!
Just way too many things that don't add up for me. Don seemingly not at home in the last vlog, the "keeping it together for the kids" comment, the changing Thanksgiving plans, nightstandgate. -
.
Late to the party as always, but I brought some nice vegan-non-vegan shrimp to share with the bakery.
buuuut... I don't loathe Jen. She's crazy weirdo & I love analyzing her. I also live for the speculation at the bakery. Some people read historical fiction, some people watch sci-fi. Some people read at the bakery. It's a fun pastime for me.
I think she is crazy in some sort of diagnosable sense. No one goes to weekly therapy sessions and doesn't improve as a person after 10 years. If anything she's become seemingly more unstable. I cannot look away from the Jen everlasting Journey.
When she says crazy shit like insisting she's a really great actress, it just makes me think she's even crazier than I originally thought. I would love for them to split and for Don to share the truth behind what happens when the cameras are off.
She completely lives in her own reality and I am here.for.it. You never really know what's going on in their life because she's manipulative AF with the cameras.

.
She also takes so much pride in being "just an OK mom". She really is a stubborn, bratty, little shit. -
.
Fab title, Bangle! -
.Why is she giving herself a double chin and the smugness...
I just know there is at least one glorious username in there, I just know it!
Smug Double Chin?
Double Chin and Smug?
Double Chin of Smugness? -
.I'll probably repeat a lot of others by the time I post this, but here's mega thoughts on the video as I'm watching...
The thumbnail itself looks like a giant muffin with that pic behind her. She NEVER films at that angle. Normally camera is the other way, but I think she's filmed from the chair a few times. This seems new?
Gift guides... stocking stuffers, what Jen wants (aka a haul) and maybe a toddler one. No presents for Don then. Have I mentioned how long I've been in the Tito's train car now?
Jen thinks YouTube deletes old videos. So if anything goes missing, Google is to blame, not her.
She's flipping between we/I a lot. WE moved into the house but I hosted Thanksgiving all those years. But they're going to St Louis because it's too hard for Scott to travel now the girls are teenagers. Mentions "The Rosses" as if they're a separate family now. She's very deliberately talking in WE now.
Went to the pumpkin patch with the kids. No Don in sight. That's a yearly tradition thing for them, surely he'd be there?? But she didn't like the animals. She's now very conflicted about petting/regular zoos if they don't have a conservation message. Finally one mention of "my husband" (not Don) at ~9:30. The lack of name drop is a BIG sign for me.
She looked very uncomfortable talking about her Swarovski collection, since that was mostly gifts from Don. She doesn't consider herself a collector now, other than Ali Edwards crap. They don't bring her joy any more. But it might be because she's "so busy" rather than no desire to collect. So in other words, she's giving herself permission to start again whenever she likes.
14 minutes and she is actually answering "How is Don?" - spends the entire time talking about his back/neck. Thanks us for thinking of him. It's exactly how I would answer about my sick old grandmother, not the supposed love of my life.
Halfway through and my upload notification pops up. Well done Google.
Yes they're going to Disney for spring break. It was a VERY popular question.
Apparently people who have matching cars are serial killers. Which is why she got the red minivan. The WE talk is crazy in this bit, and she sounds happy discussing it. To the point that it has me doubting my train ticket. But no, still firmly on board as I know from experience that lapses like that can happen. Especially when she mentions how handy the stowing seats are for moving furniture.
I have a feeling Vegan Crumb Manager rebranded, but user name alert for Minivan Crumb Manager as she's super excited to use the built-in vacuum on toddler crumbs.
She believes in ghosts because there's no evidence to prove they don't exist. But she's also into "vibes" and gets feelings of spirits around her. Why anyone would want to know Jen's opinions on that is beyond me.
And that's it. I'm sure the bakery FBI will be on the case for clues soon enough, but nothing new for me.
Still here and still decidedly vegan, aside from shrimp and salmon, you know those non-land creatures. They are basically the same as vegetables!
Someone please come to the dark side with me and become Minivan Crumb Manager! I've been managing all these crumbs myself for far too long.... soldiering on like Jen.

.QUOTE (deltaburkefan @ 11/12/2019, 02:46 PM)I didn’t get a good look at the nightstand. What was on it?
I've been trying to catch up again, but I'm currently on page 16/30 of the new thread so I'm giving up and posting this. At the top of the pile on the nightstand was what looked like a laptop in a blue plastic shell case. That is 100% her laptop. Does Don even have a laptop that we've ever seen? He probably has one for work, but I bet it's Windows. I am betting the thing on "Don's" nightstand is Jen's MacBook Pro. The color is way darker, but the room is poorly lit in the bedroom shot. I don't think it could be an iPad because those nightstands are big, and proportions look right for a 15" laptop (13.75" length). iPads only go up to about 11" (9.75" length). Their nightstands are 20" deep (shoot me now for just having looked that up on PotteryBarn.com).
I'm not sure if I ever bought a ticket to the train, but if it's not too late I want a ticket because I'm ready to board. Do I have to buy an upgrade to sit in the rainbow car? I'm not sure I actually believe that particular theory (and if she claimed it was true it would take a while before I'd believe it wasn't just another persona she'd adopted), but I guess I feel like being deeply in the closet even to herself would explain her insanity a little. Besides, the rainbow car is clearly the most fun car.
Your nightstand analysis is impeccable!
I thought it was her stuff on there because she specifically cropped that nightstand out of a shot awkwardly & then she specifically stood in front of it to block it during another shot. We only got to see that nightstand in passing and I bet it was just sloppy editing that we even got to see it at all. She was trying to keep from showing it. CHOO CHOO!
Also, nightstand analysis would be a great username.
WELCOME to all our new bakers who came out of lurkdom and joined in on the speculation. I am loving some of the names I've been seeing. -
.
She says MY bedroom at around 19:25
I think the nigthtstand stuff was placed there intentionally. Also when she was showing the bedding and her nightstand she was very intentionally cropping his nightstand out of the frame. If there was nothing to hide, she would have shown both because it would have looked much nicer/normal. It's very awkward looking with the cropping.
No mention of him being at work or on a trip. The only mention was the history of the mickey tree in her room. And she vlogged after dark when the kids were in bed and still you don't see or hear him & she doesn't mention him at all. He used to be home by 5 for dinner so something is definitely up.
Now that there's a vlog to dissect, I expect another full thread or two over the next couple days. I love the speculation.
Now I'm only 30 pages behind. Damn family members and friends wanting my attention!

.I’m finally caught up on the IG stories.
Don is NOT home. There’s no way she could film so much without even a hint of him... no sound of his voice, walking to and from, one of the kids running up to say “dad did/said _____”.
Jen would be more than able to take Winnie for an actual walk in the dark... are there no street lamps in Chicago?! But she wouldn’t be able to go if she didn’t have someone to stay home with the kids.
If Don was away for work or golf, Jen would say so, as part of her mama martyr schtick.
🕵🏻♀️
ETA: I never thought I’d be part of a forum where no one blinks twice at the sentence “I was doing more chest hair analysis”
Wait wait wait!!!
How long ago did she stop running in the morning becayse of "skunks"? Maybe the skunk was really Don officially moving out!? -
.I was doing more chest hair analysis and straining my eyeballs for signs of photoshop and idk...the chest hair is identical down to the little circle of hair on the left sideSPOILER (click to view)
I've been team fake profile real pictures but idk
how would someone have these real pics?
the worst part is that we're not going to find out anything. tomorrow will be exercise favorites or whatever
Holy schmoley, I'm 20 pages behind again. Forgive me if it's already been said, but......
USERNAME ALERT!!! Chest hair analysis! 
Come on down, lurkers! -
.
I just can't keep up. Still pages behind because my husband had to eat. 
Huge bombshell for #100 seems fitting, true or not! -
.
Holy shit balls, what did I just read!? I have made my way through this whole thread. I knew some shit had to go down because for every page I would read, another page was added.
I don't believe he made that profile. Like at all. Someone is playing a very sick joke on Jen and on us. I can't tell if the photos are fake or real but I have never seen that first picture anywhere else before.
Hypothetically, there is no way in hell I would do him because the mother of his kids is a crazy psycho. I don't want to be anywhere near her. She's very unstable.
Her whole "I'm such a good actress" thing she boasts makes me think she has a major personality disorder & it's kind of scary how proud she is of her "acting". I'm not diagnosing, but girl has some problems. -
.
I completely agree TH. I still view them as teenagers eventhough they are my age. The difference in our lifestyles is astounding. I just can't believe anyone in their early 30s would settle for their lifestyle and seem as happy as a pig in poop. I know she wants more because of the way she tries to show off and pretend like they are significantly better off than they actually are.
She's tried many times to convince us of that, with the latest one being showing their "back yard" in a way that made it look bigger and nicer than it is IRL (i.e. it's like a little alleyway between their house and the next road or house, not a proper back yard).
I just don't understand why she would spend so much time and energy pretending when she could have been making it a reality! It is horribly backwards. They had a lot of early years together they could have set themselves up for success and a very nice life and instead they live in dumps and seem to be barely scraping by.
I just don't understand how two young people could strive for so little. My husband and I busted our asses in our early years are some of our most cherished memories because we were busting out asses together to set ourselves up with a nice future. It brought us closer together. -
.
Hasn't he already been a little dickweed in past vlogs? IIRC we've talked about him before.
