Nancy got a massage on Friday and was offered aroma therapy during it. She picked out a cinnamon scent and the woman started massaging her.

He posted it on Instagram with the caption: “I let my fans do the talking,” seemingly referencing his recent losses at award shows. A raccoon got into a liquor store, got drunk, and passed out in the bathroom. “Ragebait” is Oxford Dictionary's 2025 word of the year. The word is used to describe content that is created to make people mad or upset, so they are more likely to engage with the content.

Nancy wants her whole family to have matching stockings, so she bought brand new ones... plus four extras. She is worried that in a few years she will have more grandkids or her kids will get married and that the store won’t sell those stockings anymore. So, she bought extras and is thinking of buying more. Nancy’s Christmas decor looks like a department store or bank lobby, while Joey and Karly’s houses look more like classic 90s/early 2000s Christmas with colored lights and homemade ornaments. We debated which decor was better. Nancy went to Knoxville Utilities Board to buy her kids gift cards for Christmas. The employees had never sold one of the gift cards before, so it took forever for it to get figured out. Thankfully, all of them were super nice!

Charles praised Auburn and had some choice words for Alabama. Joey and his wife Jhasta were super excited about the new season of Stranger Things. Joey wanted to watch it with Jhasta, but she watched it without him because he fell asleep. Americans spent a BUNCH of money on Black Friday. Nancy went shopping a little but left because the crowd was too much. Most “sales” aren’t even worth the hassle! Lucky 7 Joey survived Thanksgiving at his mom’s house, even after the drama last week. His mom had agreed to eat at 3pm, but the food was not ready then and they ended up eating way later. Plus, some other drama! We are having our 3rd annual Kidsgiving toy drive this Saturday!

Joey needs to get out his Christmas inflatables (the Grinch, Buc-ee Beaver, and a Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cake). Nancy’s husband is off work all week, and he’s been keeping himself busy with household chores. He told her that he would be a good “house husband.” Joey is headed home to Iowa for Thanksgiving, and he is not looking forward to the weird macaroni and corn casserole his family makes. We talk about other odd side dishes we don't like such as green bean casserole and Karly’s grandparents’ “pink stuff.” Nancy is determined to wear a funny costume in the WIVK Christmas Parade.
