acne diamond and he said it's slang for the broken shards of glass at a smash and grab really that's an odd name for a tour well I mean it is the Rolling Stones that's probably what's left of them is shards of glass I think that they're pre-warning people that this is what you get folks they could just be a bunch of emojis when you show up you have no idea now that would have been good they're just sitting in the back and all of a sudden you know yeah they've got their animatronics out there there we go they just show up the end of the show they're like we were making the music backstage

sea that I knew virtually nothing about yeah okay I have no reason to go on it I'm a happily married man for Humpty up years the day after I started seeing posts for that website on my yeah because your phone's always listening all of our devices are spying on us and then and and then there were other kinds of old old people dating sites popping up and I'm like leave me alone I don't want Mari to even see that they're here really Mari I didn't I didn't put them there they just I mean at that point she knows she knows she knows she knows I wouldn't dare you're good honestly that comes a point where you're like what no I'm good I'm good over here in a steady Lane over here yep no more uhuh I'm done nice steady Lane so we've got Cinco de Mayo coming up this weekend we've got another Market that is happening we are a chalk full of fabulous people that are coming to Showcase their Wares is okay is the lady who made the pocket book that you showed me is she gonna be there Melissa I

Megan's birthday 18 she's gonna be 18 18 like have relations yet no thought I'd ask you're funny I know how was your play though I I I I know you couldn't get there because you were working but horrible I felt really bad it was her final musical in high school it was like not a low of a parenting moment there but my husband took some video and sent me I think he stayed awake for the whole time he's been better now that he's got the cpat machine he's less narcoleptic okay so it's good he's actually getting sleep but does the cpat machine bother you or do you just not at all oh you just go right out oh it's so much better oh okay oh it's better than have you not heard my snoring videos I used to post of him this was like a weekly event no no I haven't I'm sorry so loud but since he's got that that seapa whatever I know the Mas The Mask thing yeah okay not Silent not like that thing that they advertise on TV with a button you push or something and oh yeah apparently that's great if your insurance cover is it okay which is probably cost a million billion well I think you have to like go through the process of having the thing for a little bit before you can upgrade to that all right I know you guys have all come here today to hear about all of our health WS but that seem like the kind of but that seems like the kind of techy thing that he'd want 100% you know him oh yeah I have to have the latest and greatest Gadget he's one of those guys right it's I have to keep an eye on him because there'll be a box at the door from Amazon all the time every day I order that thing what thing the thing that we were talking about that possibly we were going to get now we have it okay that's great are we going to use it that's the problem technology is getting so outdated so quickly so quickly yeah that I have to like really be careful of like what is it worth to spend you know are we going to use it long enough to even make it worth it or is it just going to be something else is that the stop Gap technology I don't need that part I to go from one to the next you must see something every day that you could use to to upgrade the the the back end of of this operation here all the time every day we're going through a major changeover in the next month so please bear with us with all of our hiccups and connectivity issues we're changing things for the better but also it's so painful is anybody else out there just like so I'm not adverse to change I love learning things I love growing by all means however I have such an issue with constant upgrade maintenance and nothing works the same way every single day it's like this long process like I have to waste an hour to two hours of my day just getting organized that makes me crazy you know what didn't happen with that pen and paper still works that's how I I have a list it still works I don't use I mean I do have a um you know my calendar on my phone or whatever but I have a little notebook and every day I write this is what I'm because I've got to like you I've got to see it in front of me right I need to write it down or else it's not going to be put in my brain it's something about that connection it's not real if you don't write it down I agree our question of the day is what makes you happy um I was so not happy this morning that I needed to just say uh and be reminded by the things that do make us happy because I know I've got a lot of joy in my life I I work on I work on it every single day y so put something there that makes you happy and remind yourself just a little nudge to happiness this morning I know some days are not as easy as others I get it right I'm looking forward to this weekend I actually have it off and that's a good thing yeah it is my aunt is visiting she'll be here from Florida so I don't know which day I'm G to get her on which side of the family Mom's okay she's she's like the closest to my age she's my mother's youngest sister okay so we're like a few years apart all right does she talk to Mom I'm sure I'm sure she talks to all of her sisters oh okay um it's just the one that I I like the most cuz we're we're closest and uh we raised all of our children together oh okay so we're we're just very close we're more friends than it's more of a peer relationship and she's funny as hell she just makes me laugh just being in the room with her and she's absolutely a light so I'm that's what brings me joy right there that's what makes me happy and spending time with herever everybody wants time with her so I'm like I'm over here on the cape so if you have time for me I'm here right I'm on the cape you want to come to the cape she knows exactly leave that Cesspool of the sister she's GNA have her sister time trust me can have them I'm

and she's she's cutting me out I need somebody right now I feel really bad when people make please on social media right I feel like that's that that's a low like that's your real low and I feel like I have to say something or get involved and I don't know why I have this problem you have nobody except your Facebook page I know that's rough that's it makes me feel bad m well I think because people some people think that all their friends on Facebook are really their friends and they're not very few of them actually are that's true you have to have that conversation with people my children get mad at me when I post photos of them because they're like Mom all of my friends troll your Facebook looking for photos so they can mock me with them don't put that up so I have this rolling screen on my iPhone that changes the photo of whatever it is every time I unlock it it's a different like memory and what it's been Cody heavy lately of just like when he's like a little baby all the way up so now I take a screenshot I'm like look at my new profile photo and he's like Mom don't don't do it you're ridiculous now he had a doctor's appointment coming up right yeah we have an ultrasound okay

Mari lost all kinds of weight really noticeably I need a stomach Buck I ate right through the stomach bug that wasn't a problem you know and Mariana didn't need to lose weight she's 12 years old she's tall she you know you could see it in her in her in her face and everything well when you're not particularly heavy to begin with in something like that hit your system right and you're not eating and what you're eating is reappearing you know yeah it's hard speaking of appearing Mike Myers showed up on a red carpet uh this week and people were shocked at the way he looks I was like he just his Gray he's gray with a buzz cut people get old yeah so a stark difference from the regular M Mike Myers where used to but he's not gonna forever look like Wayne's World that was a long time ago a long time a long time ago I think he was collecting a Lifetime Achievement Award and people were like wow I haven't seen you in a while Lifetime Achievement Mike Myers oh God I'm old right wow he's well he's 60 yeah oh yeah it happens real fast I mean I mean imagine if John balushi made it yeah this far I mean as far as Dan award has what John balushi would be doing or looking like or yeah whatever true you know although I don't think he would have made it I I think at some point in time John balushi would have exploded somehow yeah he was he was just too he lived hard he did he had too Reckless a character went for all of it but it's so funny you still see the clips now and then on on on reals or something of The Blues Brothers or him doing Jo Cocker or or some of the other things and and for those of you who remember John balushi you think to yourself oh my God what a talent and he could have done he was like the next Jackie Gleason you're going to the vineyard over the weekend his grave is there so oh really yeah oh we'll have to look for it right we'll have to look for it it usually has like a beer can or what they have to like be careful and monitor it and babysit it because people leave all kinds of garbage and Tra behind Cindy says my limit is to martinis trashed a friend of ours just went to um Gettysburg and and I've I've been to Gettysburg and whatever and last year and it is so spooky it is it's Eerie it is it is first of all if you haven't been to Gettysburg you can go and you can stand at this Monument that says Abraham Lincoln stood here I mean that's the first thing you go holy moly Abraham Lincoln stood here and then when you take photos I don't know if you guys know this this is one which is what people say when you take photos and you see those little white dots those are those are spirits those are those are soul I have to relook through my Gettysburg photos and I've seen pictures that that regular folks have taken of of the Cannons behind the barricade and there's smoke wild that place is just so I mean it is haunted it feels very haunted I don't even remember hundreds of I mean I don't I should know the number how many people died at Gettysburg but it's ridiculous we're not historians no I am and I should remember Mr master's degree in history here and I don't remember um I mean like 100,000 or some somebody will Google it and let us know I'm sure but um yeah it's just the spookiest place I've ever ever been yeah yeah we were there last year and I agree it was weird I mean just starting with again just starting with you can you can stand in a place where abrah Lincoln do I mean it's like wow well we're about to go see a ton of older history than that with the our European Vacation Steph in the morning's European Vacation oh my God it's going to be like a a National Lampoon situation I just know it already but are you GNA film it you're gonna have a film crew follow you around that's right film crew of my husband with all of his new stupid gadgets is what's GNA happen very good where they half work and half don't where is the spooky place I was brushing my teeth and couldn't hear we were talking about Gettysburg yeah and uh history full and uh it is it's Eerie yeah Nate says the Patriots had really sold draft class this year they focused more on the offense which was a good sign yes I watched none of it yes and you know who the star of the draft was Bill bellich oh yeah he was on with Pat McAfee he was knowledgeable he was funny he told stories what he had people laughing people are like who is this bill this is not the grumpy Bill we know this is not the gruffy of indigestion and I'm G to bark through this event press conference bill was always an act right on Fridays when it was just the local press at the Friday press conference they'd call it Story Time with Bill because it would be just them and him and they just start talking back and forth and he'd start telling stories and talking about football history and and everything else and look folks he's friends with Lenny Clark and John bonjovi yeah how dull a guy can he be I don't know but I I got um I got press conference build when I went to Nantucket he was not having anything to do with me this SP can I get a photo no thank you no thank you well I'm sure he gets asked all the time and he's like listen I was also not my best self but but at least he said no thank you and not F you or something no no he wasn't rud he was just Kurt right Kurt and Gruff well what we think of right for sure um so uh we've got the Kentucky Derby coming up this weekend I saw that Panera is rolling out a $21 Red Bull hat in limited quantities well that's good because I don't know how many people are going to want it kind of look fun yeah I might put it on a little mannequin if I was ordering like a centerpiece thing like uh my my B&B Patty over at uh the captain's Manor in always does the Cinco de derby party and so everybody wears fun hats and they have you know mint julips and martinis and margaritas and all kinds of festive things that are going on and I could see her rolling out the paner bread bull hat just for laughs but you know what don't nobody follows horse racing like they used to no God no I just want to go to like it's a bucket list thing just to go see the sites and sounds wear a fun hat out in public where you're not going to get mocked I mean I have a penchant for wearing tiny hats I have a whole closet of them invite me to an event that I can wear a hat at and I say yes to it I've worn them to all of my cousins weddings they all think I'm ridiculous blocking half the people behind me with my giant hat it's great but those of you who don't remember the Kentucky Derby watching the Kentucky Derby used to be like watching the Super Bowl yeah yeah right it was a big deal everybody got together you had parties you do this you do that and now it's like oh oh yeah the Kentucky Derby's on who are those horses oh well Secretariat's not running no Secretariat's dead can make some bets or something what's up Helen hey Don too many horses have died in racing I agree yeah yeah and and too many trainers keep getting suspended and the same guy oh oh God I forget his name it's gross and it's dirty and the stuff that they do to those poor animals is awful and it's all big bucks oh all it's all money yeah and I think people are getting tired of that I think so too I mean just like dog r I mean we love we love we love Greyhounds but and we had one for for Pep for a while and was absolutely they used to at least adop them out after they were done with their racing days but you know how they used to do that no I I never told you this story oh my God so we decided we were going to adopt a greyhound so we were living in in alboro and I think it was yeah we're in alabor maybe or maybe we were down here whatever and we went to the track in Lincoln and you go into this room and there are these cages one stacked on top of of another and they open the door all the doors and they let them all out and they come running over to you like pick me pick me pick me pick me please I need out and you have to say well no not this one no this one SLA Megan in the face with its tail so that's got to go back there was one it was called a um a blue Greyhound but it was brown it must have just gone in there wouldn't come out oh was curled up in the in the corner so we ended up adopting one who was a little older he was I think six at the time we got him and we had him for um for several years but no one was adopting him because he was he was older his name was Fuzzy and which is a weird name for a racing dog but um name and and the reason why he stopped racing is his shoulder would pop out and and he'd be in our backyard and he turned our backyard into a into a track had a fence in the backyard for the dog and he turned it into a track and sometimes when he was running all of a sudden you'd see the shoulder pop out and then he'd run for a little bit and I guess he'd knew KN knew enough to put it back in again poor poor fuzzy but the thing that would happen he always got out during thunderstorms I don't know I don't know why the devil we opened the door and he got out and he would run the block that we would that we would walk him and i' on the phone with a couple of neighbors and it's it's raining cats and dogs thunder and lightning and I'd say sorry guys Fuzzy's out again I need your help and I'd get in my car and I'd go this way and another guy would come out of his house another guy would get his car and all we could do was limit the area that he could run because we couldn't catch him yeah if we ran after him he would have he would yeah you got let him get out of he would bolted so so we finally just narrowed the area narrowed the area narrowed the area and then I got out of my car and I got and I got him in the car they're going to see and they're going to think rabbit and they're gone you'll never see them again because you can't you can't you can't catch them Bad Bunny rides in on a horse during his tour this year ringland Brothers doesn't even have live animals or clowns isn't that weird for a circus what not to have live animals anymore life animals it's yeah people were really upset when I was in New York for the um the Rockets they they brought live Magi animals in camels and whatever and then that was like when I was reading through the other reviews to see before I bought it and people were like I can't believe in 2023 are using live animals and as opposed to what I get it I mean you I I don't even know where they stored a camel on madis in Madison Square Garden like where does one put up three camels that they just bring out to walk across the stage one time like what do they do all day I'm very curious I'm sure they're treated very well well with the rocket so I would assume so I'm sure that uh it's fine but yeah we have stopped using live animals and things because it's inhumane I think people are finally realizing we don't need to do that anymore good morning Roberta thanks for joining us I am I saw this study and I was like oh good I'm right on track forgetting is actually good for your brain explain this one to me oh please they're just talking about things where people harp on things and it makes your stress level rise and how you can't let things go sometimes so it is good to forget some things yes oh yeah not being overly forgetful that's not great but forgetting things is okay I've I've I've heard it said that if you can't remember something walk backwards and it will come to you and I've said that to Mari a couple of times because mari's great for like getting halfway through a and and then there's nothing because we have ADD and we have too many things going on so I'll say okay back up about backwards okay now come forwards again let's finish the sentence and many times it in fact works all right backwards I don't know if it's like a reset or or or what but well it forces your brain to rewind where you're last steps maybe I'll be walking backwards all day everybody and a lot on the plate right now I do it's ridiculous so what else is up in Stephanie in the morningland um what do you have coming up we have so well it's May so I've we've got the markets we're getting ready for them mashby Farmers Market is in full swing we have so many fabulous seasonal people that are coming we're working on some sustainable Endeavors we're working on some recyclables we're working on a water project like we're actually doing we going to have a water ride what no not a water ride we're working on a water project okay to get some running water and uh to it's just okay I want to ask it's so many things that we are working on for this and um I was sad to see that the harch farmers market is not going to be happening this year because so much D Construction in that area that they said it's just not even worth them fighting to have um the farmers market Because by the time people get there uh and then everybody's gonna fight their way through the construction they just said maybe next year and that was kind of sad yeah construction I took Mariana to school yesterday and sandwich I could not get home why I could not get home because of the right they were like I me obviously obviously I could get home but but the the obvious way obvious way they were all blocked it was like ridiculous well you were talking about rubber Nea this morning oh yeah there's a I saw in the um the news this morning in Boston there's an accident I think on 128 or something and the backup from the rubbernecking is like twice as long as the backup caused by the accident yeah I mean it's ridiculous it's human nature though you want to see why what is the reason for me to be here and then you're going to judge the reason whether it was stupid or not and then be angrier about it this is what rubber necking is all about unless it's a white sheet over the vehicle move on no no we don't like that Hart is just intimidated by my market no they're not trust me they're not they have much more things going on in that area Michael thank you for joining us what's up Mike Pella Patty Lloyd you broke yourself take care of your body broke herself yeah she broke her foot I don't know what she did I didn't get into the nitty-gritty of how it got done all right but uh take care of yourself please stay in one piece yes Cape Cod traffic is ridiculous I feel like everywhere I'm stopping a hundred times and wait till they wait till they start to work on the rotary to make that to make that better they've been working on the born rotary they've widened it so now there's an extra Lane coming up to it right and they're going to do other stuff apparently they're doing like now yeah right so but the problem is people don't know what to do now right there's three lanes there and people are like H they already didn't know how to approach a rotary or what to do with it right now people extra don't know yeah so they're like right I don't know what to do they need to put up a sign that's like you go if you want to go here you go this way right if you want to go here you go this way and at least put up a sign that says keep driving till you figure it out don't stop please please please don't stop stop well the people in the rotary have the right away so you do have to stop that is the rule no I mean the people in the rotary just they'll come over the bridge and they'll and then they'll just keep moving you you go go around once or twice you you'll figure out where you're gonna go and then you can go but rtb says that is not what I Define rubbernecking to be hey it's all looky L it's people wanting to know what's going on where is it what's happening annoying get out get a get gone move on yes serenity now everyone if your road is now shut off as you're getting up to go somewhere poor Emily was supposed to come to work yesterday and she just sent me the traffic pattern I'm like stay home just not even worth it g it take you two hours to get to me that's ridiculous

road's closed it's beautiful this is every single spring We complain about it I just feel like this is extra this year especially since we're doing the sewering project here in Mash piece so it's not one thing it's the other so right I was going to say it feels like it's worse this year I mean you expect the repaving and everything else because it's the spring and they want to get it done before tourist season but this other it's it's like oh my goodness well what's going to be happening during tourist season because I heard we've got a ton of rentals available because everybody jumped into that market and uh during Pand mic where it was lucrative and it's not now and there is a fire sale on rentals and getting people to come and visit us hopefully people who own those rental properties will decide to go and sell them and we can make them available to people who need to buy homes yeah and maybe address our housing issues hopefully yeah I've never seen so many houses for sale I was from pic casset all the way to provinc toown and back driving the cape over the weekend as we were doing Ruck for hit by the way $268,000 we've raised and Counting that's great which is incredible as

don't live here in the C C area then we'll ask you what your restaurant of choice is and we'll try to get that you know gift card for you so you can use the river where you are it's great it it started as you know it started off during covid when when Mari was looking for you know something to do and you know you can't cook the same thing for supper every night because you know nobody was going anywhere and she started this page and she threw it out there and it's just gone it's just gone Gang Busters yeah I and I love it I feel very inspired every time I'm on there and that's how we met you roasted radishes are today's yums I'll be looking forward to that I don't know if I will like I know right radishes radishes you got to be careful they can not do good with your stomach if Nate said I'll put up a picture of my Progresso soups simple foods and you're Ramen get it done Nate you had a story this morning that was six habits of squashing stress ah yes six habits of squashing stress this is really interesting do you like that segue I went from squash to squashing very good I was that was that was that was good you must be a professional have you done this before I me a couple of times couple of times all right all right well this is from um what is this from this is from better report.com this is a way to um squash kind of your stress you know because we're all even if it's just trying to go out to the store and come back and we can't get home um so there are some things you can do one suggestion is to keep a gratitude Journal okay that forces you if you will to focus on the good stuff as opposed to maybe sitting down and having a diary and and and bitching um you do you do a gratitude journal and that forces you and what it does is it says it releases dopamine and serotonin which is stuff that makes us feel happy okay is another one read a book can be very relaxing but don't be like me I never finish a book I you and I are the same in that realm I never finish it like I know what's going to happen and I'm like GH I'm done or I'm over it or I got what I wanted from this book already and I never finish them it's I'm so bad it's really it's not it's not a good thing one of the books that I'm reading now and I and I do sincerely want to finish is uh it's a mystery about a um TV investigative reporter written by Hank philippy Ryan oh okay who is um um investigative reporter for Channel 7 help me Hank yep up in up in up in Boston she's won all kinds of awards for mystery writing and everything else it's really good and I'm like three quarters done and then I see something else and I go oh I think I'll order that and then I start that so you squel you can yeah read a book spend time Outdoors big difference I sat outside yesterday I like I wasn't feeling great I did not have a wonderful day and I was like you know what I'm going to sit outside so I sat outside with my tea for like 20 minutes and I really felt much better now I have sinus ISS but that's another problem sitting in a small courtyard or walking through a public park can gra drastically drop stress levels within 20 minutes I agree just being in nature period putting your feet on the ground good morning Susan good morning lovely I hope to see you this weekend first tea dance in Province Town excellent Mari Emily thank you for joining us we're squashing we're squashing stress this one may or may not work for you enjoy a creative hobby okay if you can do something that you don't get frustrated doing then the hobby is good what if your hobby is work yeah see that see see see that's a problem you know that is really really a problem it's not good I know and and and speaking of foods eat magnesium rich foods um I take magnesium every night before I go to bed yeah magnesium rich foods include nuts beans Dairy whole grain dark leafy green veget that is supposedly going to help you and then the final one which I think we all know is just get a good night's sleep you're right yeah exactly calm down enough to get a good night's sleep and you won't be quite so stressed yeah magnesium also helps before it's but Li Lily goes Mom that's the best thing you could do for you it's lowest lowering your cortisol rates and helps you go to bed I'm like who are you who are you led it who taught you that I teach you that Emily said so I should come 30 minutes early every Monday we can go for a walk 100% we'll put Savannah in the thing and we'll go you've got right right around right down the down here you've got the park you've got the beach I know um that's what cliff and I did last week we just got up in the middle of like lunchtime drove down to Holly asum Holly which is an the autoban place yep went for a quick little walk around there felt good nice and sunny I was like why do we not do this more often all right we're working on it right we're trying to make healthier habits for our Mental Health also oh we tell ourselves we're going to walk all the time and we look out our window at The Villages and there's all these people hobbling along and we're saying you know we should do that but we've got to finish this first and then we've got to do that then we'll do it after and then it's supp time it's 100% that way and that's why I've like made a point of I'm just gonna do this now I'm never I'm never not gonna have something to do right exactly so I just have to do this for me right now yep and I've really it's it's been an emerging skill uh I'm not doing so great on it we're going to give ourselves progress reports not great emerging skill emerging skill that's an interesting term I've never heard I've never heard that before an emerging skill that's it what's up Deb thanks for joining us on it walk work walk yes I like the work walk a lot yep um what else is going on in the world well we have our um if I can find it oh sandwich police log our sandwich police log I gotta read this one local crazy crime everybody brace yourselves okay I gotta read this one word for word um where is it the pacifier one yes the pacifier one um okay I have to read this word for word because thank you um again we we so much appreciate the sandwich police and all the police and and what they do and and you read some of these things and you say to yourself what are they doing involved in that that's crazy you know they have to be they're peace officers they're peace officers so here we go this is quote unquote from the sandwich police blog a man searching for his child's lost pacifier apparently upset some dogs in an adjacent lot to the path he was searching the dog owner unaware the man was looking for the binky accused him of being a sphincter for taunting his pets the accused orifice invited the dog owner over for a close encounter both are advised to take an example from the child's lost item and assume a more pacifistic attitude and just stay away from each other that's awesome that's just classic you get the feeling that the cops didn't like either one of those guys they have to just be over most of this situation at this point from people's Apple watch calling 911 by accident to you know real estate dealings and battles with people that don't like the way someone looks or this one a call was received for an elderly woman who was hearing knocking at her door in 11: p.m. officers were dispatched for more and again unable to locate the the person who is knocking we know what you're thinking but to quote the legendary Ron poel wait there's more like this is what they deal with every single day finish finish the story that story that was it that was the end of the story oh no no no which one oh no that one the people not a third call was received from that address this time at 2:30 in the morning another check of the area was negative but they still decided to stay in the the area as it appeared the home was being targeted at around 245 officer spotted a young male walking out the street running back in the neighborhood officer spoke to the man who stated that his child and others were spending the night at a neighboring home and they were actually bothering this woman yes little dirt bags 6:45 officers went back to the address unable to awaken the Sleeping Beauties obviously exhausted from being up all late night tormenting an old lady next door little pratts he explained the severity of the incident spoke to all the juvenile's parents and strongly suggested the Little Darlings apologized to the woman who had been unable to sleep she was advised of her harassment prevention rights can you believe that little little little little sphincters yeah right those were the sphincters they used it wrong but again this is what they're tied up doing I know that is ridiculous to spend all night to watch I get it there on they're working anyway and this is their job right but I mean to have to sit there in a neighborhood all night long and figure it out it's a bunch of pilot kids really tormenting this old lady right and they're tied up dealing with this stupid incident stupid kid stupidly when maybe something else is going to happen and they can't get there in time right you know because they're all First Responders and some many many times as you know the um the police show up first as the first responder yeah because they you know they're already out in the neighborhood and they're already driving and you know someone has an emergency and the police officer is often the first person who gets there not the EMT yeah I apologize if you're trying to call into the show right now I cannot take phone calls I had to use the wire somewhere else like I said we're working on it right but but you can send Stephanie a text message at I mean I mean um an email at yes Stephanie ata.com you can email me you can text me you can find us on social any which way we can happily connect with you we will but if you're trying to call me right now and
