00:01Hi, Stacey Burke here. Just got out of the shower. Don't feel like putting on
00:10makeup. Haven't tanned in forever. Feeling really gross, but wearing one of my
00:18dresses you could find on Stacey's hamper and my dusters. That's Nigel, Sir
00:25Nigel and King Felix and my birdies. One of my days off, they tried to call me in but
00:34I couldn't. I would have, but I had my grocery or delivery coming and I couldn't.
00:42Yes, I'm exhausted. Even on my day off, I'm exhausted. As you know, days off are not
00:50really days off. And I put pressure on myself on days off because I'm like, Oh
00:55my God, I got to get everything done. And then I got to force myself to relax. And
01:01so relaxation time is on my to-do list, which makes it stressful, which is not
01:11relaxation time. So I'm trying to make myself slow down. Kinda trying to fit
01:22everything in on my little side. Even though I write everything down, there's
01:28some things I forget and just try to get things done. I know it's my own thing. I
01:37self-sabotage because I guess that's why I love sleep. When you're sleeping, you dream,
01:46you go places. There's no really stress. Yeah, sometimes you get some bad dreams, but we're
01:53kinda in the moment. You don't really feel that stress. Waking up, even though I do love
01:59morning times, but waking up is like, you know, you gotta brush your teeth. You gotta
02:07clean up. You gotta do the cat chores. You gotta clean the cat box. You gotta feed the
02:12birds, which I love. Don't get me wrong. But when you wake up, you have a million chores
02:17waiting for you. And then when people say, Oh, enjoy your day off, have fun, relax, and
02:27they can, I don't know how to do that. Even when I relax, all I do is think about what
02:41I
02:41should be doing. Or making a list of things to do once I'm done relaxing. And it's taking
02:51a toll on my body. I've noticed my body is changing. Ever since COVID, I swear to God,
02:56it's like, I noticed that my body is declining. Not health-wise, I feel fine. Sure, I trip, I
03:04do things, but I mean like, well, I haven't been tanning. So that's a big thing. Like a
03:11tan makes a world of difference. But I just noticed my face, my wrinkles, my body has been
03:19like my skin. I have more skin. I have so much skin. It's just jiggling all over. It's
03:28not fat. It's skin. Fat, I could control. If I get fat, I just eat less or work out. You
03:38know, but when you have excess skin, I could get as thin as I want. I just get more skin.
03:47I could get muscle, but you can't see the muscle because I have so much skin. I know a lot
03:54of
03:54it because I don't drink a lot of water. I don't hydrate. I don't do that very well. In
03:59fact, I don't know if we ever talked about this, but when I had a kidney infection long
04:04time ago and I was really sick, I didn't know why I was sick. So, you know, I got in
04:12the sun
04:13thinking, okay, I'm going to, you know, like I just got myself worse and worse. And when
04:17I had a kidney infection, I was so, it felt like I was drugged. I was like, um, illusioned.
04:27I don't know. I wasn't like, I felt like I was on LSD. I was like, um, I couldn't function.
04:36This is before Lyft and Uber. I had to call a cab because I couldn't drive. I couldn't
04:42function. I was just like in a time warp. And when I finally got to the hospital, I'm
04:53very, you know, for me to go to a hospital or doctor, it has to be bad because I don't
04:57do doctors. I don't do dentists. They're all a scam. They all messed me up. They all like
05:03F with me, took my money and made me worse. And I, I think it's a scam. Most of it,
05:10not
05:11all, but most of a scam, but for me to go to the doctor, it means a lot. And the
05:16doctor
05:16says, Oh my God, you're so dehydrated. You have like no water in your body. So they put
05:20an IV on me and they put me on this cold metal slab for hours. And I felt like creepy
05:26crawlies
05:26were coming to my body and I hated it. And this ignored me for like hours on this cold slab.
05:32With an IV in me until all the fluids came back. And then they sent me on my way. And
05:40when I got out of it, out of the hospital, I remember like the light was so bright and
05:47I'm like, where am I? What's going on? And I just remember the doctor saying, I drink
05:53water. So I did. And when I drink water. Oh my God. My body just, I shed a lot of
06:03weight.
06:04I looked great. I looked great. I think I would have learned. I have ice cubes. This is like
06:15lemonade. My day off. So I do have some whiskey in it, but usually I do like lemonade. Like
06:21even when I'm not drinking, I don't, I can't, I mean, I do water. I try it. It's tap water.
06:26I'm not going to buy special water. And I, I try to have a lot of ice because I could
06:32drink
06:33things with ice in it, whether it's soda, whether it's iced tea, whether it's Kool-Aid.
06:40And so I figured that's my water, you know, even coffee, not a water girl. I just, it's hard
06:50for me. And so I know that's part of it, you know, and part of its age and just not
06:58going
06:58in the sun. And also I've been beating my body to death. I've been working a lot and stress
07:05wise and the problems of the world really weigh on me a lot. So I get really stressed.
07:15And I know that I have overactive immune system. I I've been told I have a lot of white blood
07:20cells, whatever that means. And I have an overactive immune system. I have thin skin.
07:25I was like, literally I'm diagnosed with thin skin. Um, I, I guess we have an overactive immune
07:33system. Your body attacked itself. So yes, I had alopecia. I have certain ailments from
07:41this auto immune thing I got. And so I know I got that. Um, so yeah. And you know, when
07:55I
07:55look at myself in there, I don't like it. And all I do is go to work and come home.
07:59So it's
07:59not for anybody else. Just me. What? So I'm, I'm not liking my, how I love right now. And
08:08I know the best thing to do is just drink more water. And I won't, I won't. I do. I
08:16do
08:16have some water right here. I do. I do. I do drink it. Just not enough. Um, but I don't
08:28know, but it's not, not really what I look. It's how I feel. And I know I need to drink
08:35water. Cause I just feel like I take a few bites of food and I get really full and I've
08:41haven't, I've always had stomach issues since I've been born, since I've been born. And,
08:51um, yeah, an age thing. I don't really like what I'm looking like, even though I have no
08:56makeup on. This can't fight it. This is the body. And you know what I should, I am very
09:03grateful for the body that I have because a lot of people have really serious health
09:12elements, issues. And I've been really lucky. Like sure. Do I have issues? Yes. But everyone
09:21has issues. Everyone has different issues. You may not have the same issues I have. You
09:27probably have different issues. Worst issues. Maybe ease, easier issues. I don't know, but
09:33we all have issues. These are mine. This is how my deck of cards that I've been dealt with. Everyone
09:42has the deck of cards that have been dealt with. And I know I'm pretty lucky. I'm pretty lucky.
09:50I am. Um, yeah. I only, I had the hysterectomy cause I had the tumors. You can see that video.
10:00Yes. I almost died. Heboglobin was a four. I lost 75% of my blood. It was a big issue,
10:08but
10:09they saved me. And yeah, I got a hysterectomy. I don't know if I could do it in this time
10:13of
10:14days because, you know, cause I even had to get canceled. Can't, not canceled. Counseled.
10:23Like, well, you know, if you have this operation, you won't have kids. And I go, well, if I don't
10:28have this operation, I'm dead. So I can't have kids. So I got what they said. I, you know,
10:43I don't know where this video is going. I had a thing in my mind and then I'm losing it.
10:48This is why I do vid clips a lot. Cause they're just like little mind clips in my head, but
10:55let me know I'm, I'm lucky. I'm, I'm very lucky, but yeah, I'm dealing with things.
11:00Um, as I get older and, uh, learning about things. And I remember when I was young and naive
11:07and, um, and that's why people like to hire young people because they could take advantage
11:16of them because once you get older with age is wisdom and you don't get taken advantage
11:22so much. So, um, so you know, you young folk, yeah, you're going to give me taken advantage
11:28of because your age and night, night, activity, but then older folks get taken advantage of
11:35because then they turn like a bit of a button and we start like losing it.
11:47This is my day off and I have a lot of things in my head and I'm trying to relax
11:51on my day
11:51off. It's really hard. Cause I just got done with laundry and I have other things I need
11:58to do. Um, I don't even, I can't even read my notes. That's another thing reading glasses,
12:11but I kind of like reading glasses. I kind of like the way they look. I don't know if they
12:15look, I don't know where that's going. I think this is all I need to talk about right now.
12:22Cause this is like on my laptop and I can't really flip it like on my phone.
12:33I don't get me wrong. Everything's great. I love my place. I'm, you know, I'm good, but
12:43I'm dealing with things. Cause I look in the mirror and I'm like, I'm not liking myself.
12:48I want to improve myself and not for anybody else. I'm, it's just me and the cats. The cats
12:53don't care. Like I caught Felix looking at me through the mirror and the way he was looking
12:59at me was so lovingly. Like he was just looking at me like I was everything. And I looked at
13:04him
13:04and I go, if I could look at myself, the way you look at me, Felix, things would be so
13:11great.
13:12Like I'm just, we're our own worst, worst critics. Like I, I guess I could just go and get Botox
13:20and
13:20stuff, but I haven't done it in four years. I'm just too frugal with my money. And I just, I
13:27can't,
13:28I can't make myself part with that money to get the Botox and the filler. And I just going outside
13:38to get a
13:38tan. I'm over it. It's so boring just to lay out and get a tan. It's so boring. So I'm
13:46over that.
13:47The tanning beds were a thing, but all the tanning beds closed.
13:54Um, and I know it's probably wise for me not to do that because I know it's unhealthy.
14:02I haven't used even my spray tanner stuff. Cause I'm like, what's the point? I'm just going to work.
14:07I'm covering up because it's been so cold lately. I just been covering up. All you see is my little
14:13eyeballs. So I wore my false eyelashes. So there we go. So, um, just talking to you about things in
14:27life.
14:28All of my channel is just brain stew that comes out of my brain, out of my mouth, onto my
14:36laptop and through YouTube.
14:43And I want to catch up on so much of, uh,
14:48YouTube channels. I'm missing wondering gypsy and which missing all my stuff.
14:53But at the same time I am enjoying work while I have it.
14:58And next month is my birthday month. Plus I have some very important appointments to make.
15:05I have to renew my driver's license and there's other things.
15:09And it's like, um, kind of concerned about that I have to do and, uh, hoping everything works out.
15:20And as you know, I'm not one of those people that harm people or harm myself.
15:27I'm not that person. I'm not selfish like that.
15:33I mean, I don't want to, I shouldn't say that.
15:36Because people that do that are going through things and that's how we deal with it.
15:40But, um, meaning that I just would never do that.
15:46I would never jeopardize things.
15:49I would never jeopardize because I, I'm responsible for these little lives.
15:55And I love them so much that I need to stay okay.
16:01To make sure they're okay.
16:04So yes, that's what I mean.
16:08Because I've had dealt with that in my life.
16:10People that decide to leave this planet.
16:17And, um, I remember my grandparents saying, oh, why, why, why'd they do this to us?
16:23And well, they didn't do it to you.
16:25They thought they were doing the right thing.
16:26But, um, I would never, I just would never, ever do that.
16:33Um, yeah, I would never do that.
16:37I just couldn't.
16:38No matter how bad things get, I don't think I could ever do that.
16:45Because every day is better.
16:48And there's things I got to take care of.
16:51And I'm such a control freak.
16:53I don't want anyone else to do it.
16:58But anyway.
17:00Yeah.
17:01Another video.
17:02This is why some of my laptop videos, that's why I do live sometimes, because I just don't
17:05know where it's going.
17:07Um, that's why I do vid clips.
17:10And I know once I turn off this camera, I'm going to be like, oh my God, I want to
17:14talk
17:15about this.
17:15I want to talk about that.
17:16And it's all frivolous stuff.
17:19Like if anyone cares or no one cares, I don't know.
17:22It's just stuff I want to get off my chest.
17:24And things are in my brain that I'm just not supporting.
17:29And maybe people could relate to.
17:33Because I relate to a lot of things that I see people do and say on camera.
17:38Because I follow a lot of you guys on YouTube and on social media.
17:44Oh, that's another thing.
17:45Goddess Mia.
17:46I used to follow on Instagram.
17:48Now she's not on Instagram anymore.
17:49She's only on YouTube and TikTok.
17:53Well, I can't be on TikTok.
17:54You know that.
17:55But, um, I tried to message her like, why?
18:00Why are you not on Instagram anymore?
18:03She hasn't got back to me.
18:05So I don't know why Goddess Mia is not on Instagram anymore.
18:15I mean, it's sad.
18:16I loved her.
18:17I like her.
18:17I mean, I can still follow her.
18:19But at work, you know, when I'm at work, I'm boondocking.
18:22I don't have any electricity.
18:24So it's all my cell phone.
18:26And it's usually Instagram, YouTube so much.
18:30Like, I can't even do wondering Gypsy on my phone at work.
18:35Because her videos are so picturesque.
18:38Like, she's out in the middle of nowhere.
18:41And, you know, you need to see it on the big screen.
18:44It's like beautiful, right?
18:47So I can't watch her on my cell phone.
18:49I got to watch her on the big screen.
18:52So I've been missing her a lot.
18:54So, yeah.
18:55So it's basically Instagram or like little like tidbits.
18:59And also because I'm working.
19:00So I can only like, I got a little minute here, a minute there, a little minute there.
19:05I can't really.
19:06And also, I can't really hear with the wind and being outside.
19:10I can't really hear something big and bold.
19:15So it has to be like tiny little tidbits.
19:19But I am enjoying my time at the strawberry farm.
19:23We have a lot of lizards.
19:25I have a lot of lizards at my, where I'm at.
19:30And also a hawks.
19:32I saw one beautiful hawk actually kind of came close to me.
19:36And he looked like he was wearing a little pantaloons.
19:39It looked like he had like little knickers on.
19:41It was really cute.
19:43And I saw an alligator lizard.
19:46And I collect so many sticks and walking sticks and stuff.
19:50Because I'm right around a lot of eucalyptus trees.
19:57Yeah.
19:58I just see a lot of critters.
19:59And I like it.
20:00You know, out there in the field.
20:03Out there in the world.
20:06And I am very grateful for having a job.
20:11You know, that I get a lot of hours with.
20:15And I like a squirrel with nuts.
20:17When I'm working so much.
20:20I'm hoarding all my money.
20:22Because once seasonal worker, when I'm not working.
20:27You know, I got to use that for my rent and stuff.
20:33I don't know.
20:34I feel like laying down.
20:35But at the same time, I got to go walk and pick up my mail.
20:39I got to go pick up my mail for my post office box.
20:42Once a week, I go get my mail.
20:44So, yeah.
20:45So, if you send me anything, sometimes it takes like a few days for me to go get it.
20:50So, I got to do that.
20:52My nails are so shabby.
20:55My skin is so busted open.
20:58Because, you know, I cut cardboard boxes.
21:01And I got cuts everywhere.
21:05And I fell.
21:07So, I have like bruises.
21:09And I'm busted, man.
21:15I am busted.
21:18Now, with my day off, I want to cook something.
21:21But yet, I don't know what I want.
21:22That's another thing.
21:23I don't really have an appetite.
21:24I don't know what I want to eat.
21:25So, what did I have?
21:27I had some crackers with some mayo and some seasoning on it.
21:33I really need to like make a meal.
21:37But I don't know what I want.
21:40I have so much food in the house.
21:42But I don't know what I want.
21:43I don't have an appetite.
21:45All I know is I get a little munchy.
21:47And I just grab for the first thing.
21:50See, that's why when I'm working, it works out.
21:53Because I will make myself lunch.
21:55A healthy lunch.
21:56And so, when I get snacky, I'm forced to eat like a really good healthy lunch.
22:01But when I'm home, I get a cracker.
22:07Probably want a cracker.
22:10Not a good thing.
22:13Well, one thing on Stacey's Hamper, I should have brought it.
22:16I have that collagen balm that everyone loves.
22:19Go to Stacey's Hamper.
22:21It looks like a lip balm.
22:23But it's big for your face.
22:25And I love it.
22:27Like whenever you need hydration, you just soothe it on.
22:31And it does kind of plump up your face a little bit.
22:34So, just go to Stacey's Hamper.
22:36It's like, I think it's called a Korean face balm.
22:43It has like collagen and something else.
22:49Oh, calcium.
22:52Calcium and collagen.
22:54Pretty good.
22:55And you can see all my little dresses.
22:58Well, anyway, I think that's it.
22:59I'm going to film some more stuff.
23:01This video is just rambling on.
23:03I'll film some more stuff.
23:05Maybe I'll...
23:06I don't think I'm going to put any makeup for today.
23:08Because when I'm working, I have makeup on.
23:11Today, I want to be no makeup.
23:14My new thing is this long dresses and robes or a duster.
23:21This is so much more comfortable.
23:24I'm over pants.
23:25I'm over pants.
23:27I mean, sure, at work, I need to wear them.
23:30You know, because it's kind of cold.
23:34And pants, you know, I need to work.
23:36Like, you know, I can't wear dresses.
23:39But when I'm not working, it's all about the dresses.
23:44It's all about the skirts.
23:46Free flowing.
23:50You know, maybe shorts.
23:52Maybe when it gets hot, I'll do shorts with a dress over it.
23:55Like, you know, bloomers and a dress.
23:59But now it's all dresses, kimonos, dusters.
24:05I'm in my Mrs. Roper era or the dude.
24:09I'm the dude man.
24:12All right.
24:12I'm going to let you go.
24:13Sorry for this rambling.
24:14Hopefully it entertained you a little bit.
24:18Yeah, it's no filter.
24:19On Instagram, yes, I will put a filter somewhere.
24:22Sometimes I will.
24:23I like to play around with it.
24:25To me, it's like putting on makeup without having to really put on makeup.
24:29So when I want to have makeup, but I don't feel like put on makeup.
24:33Yeah.
24:34On my camera, I will use a filter.
24:36And, you know, you'll see the eye.
24:38Basically the filter, my favorite filter is the Snapchat filter.
24:41I think it's called Glamorous, I think.
24:43And all it does is give you eyelashes and eyebrows.
24:46That's basically it.
24:48Is this eyelashes and eyebrows.
24:49I might do a little lip.
24:52Maybe it does a little lip.
24:54But it's not much.
24:56Just mainly eyebrows and eyelash.
25:00And that's pretty much eyebrows, eyelashes, and lip balm.
25:05Those are my three favorite makeup things.
25:10And so that's the filter I use.
25:12Just in case, yes, you're going to see me with a filter.
25:15You're going to see me with a filter fish.
25:18All right.
25:19I'm going to let you go now.
25:21And I'll film more later.
25:22Sorry for the rambling again.
25:25That's another thing.
25:26My day off, I just want to stare at them.
25:29I caught, uh, Katie's the only one that's been using, that I've seen with my eyeballs, use the cat fountain.
25:38I have a new cat fountain.
25:40Thank you, PJ.
25:42I have yet to see any of the other cats drinking from it.
25:46They probably do, but I haven't caught them.
25:50And by the way, Felix is doing better.
25:53He was going through dementia.
25:55He was locked up.
25:56He locked himself up in the back bedroom.
25:58He wouldn't come out.
25:59And all he would be doing is meowing at the walls.
26:02I thought I was going to lose him.
26:04But I've been using fish oil on his, on his body for his dry skin.
26:10And I don't know.
26:11He just snapped out of it.
26:13Felix is being Felix again.
26:16Hallelujah.
26:17Hallelujah.
26:18So I'm very happy.
