Okay.Okay.Okay.Okay.Okay.Okay.

Okay.

Okay.Okay.Okay.Okay.Okay.Okay.

0:09

Okay.Okay.Okay.Okay.If you want to know the beautiful thing about beautiful things, I love this fridge.However, the ice never works.

0:26

Always have to get it fixed.Water, non -existent.You want water from this fridge?Think again.Sometimes I get lucky.I would say it makes about that much ice per week, and then I get to pitchfork it out like Sid the squirrel.

0:44

Not very cold, but gorgeous.Well, everybody, hi, how you doing?It's actually a holiday.It's Memorial Day today.On today's installment of Single Housewives of the Suburbs, coming to you yet again, underqualified and overly confident.If you recall a few months ago, maybe two or three months ago in March, I had mentioned that I had custom built an IKEA closet because I am sick and tired of fighting with a clothing rack that falls over every damn day of my life.

1:19

After two years of pondering the decision, I was finally ready to pull the trigger after getting multiple closet quotes and being like, F you closet companies, I'm not paying 10 to 15 grand for a closet.I finally decided to get my little booty cheeks on IKEA.I had custom built a whole IKEA wardrobe, and what was so enticing to me about it, they were like, OMG girl, we can have these delivered in like five days.I was thinking, this is so efficient, this is so great.IKEA, the Swedish people really have shit figured out.It's gonna be here in five days.

1:54

Five days passes.IKEA, ghost me. I hear crickets, jack squat, nothing.I call them up and I say, hey girls, I'm really amped up to build these closets.Once I have a hope and a dream, my hope and a dream, the window only lasts so long before it's not my hope and dream anymore.Like when can we get these closets here?They couldn't give me an answer.

2:13

They were like, I don't know.They'll show up whenever they show up.Oh no, the inspiration window is closing rapidly.I get these big aspirations in my brain, but we have to act quick or like I move on to something else.A month and a half later, on a random Sunday, unbeknownst to me, they call me at 8 a .m.

2:36

and they say, hey girl, we're at your door.I mean, it all ended up working out.Did I pay a hefty shipping price?Yes.Did they ghost me for two months?Yes.

2:45

Are we gonna move on?And look at the bright side, that everything I mean, fingers crossed everything should be here.Yes.Am I qualified to build an entire closet by myself?You know what?I would say no, but I do often surprise myself with what I can accomplish, and I am gonna go in with high hopes, and I might fall on my ass and eat my words and embarrass myself, but I'm really gonna go in with high hopes so we can get this shit conquered.

3:12

So that is what we're doing today.If you think, Morgan, you're looking a little kooky, I tried one of those gel -peely Lip stain things they sell them at Costco now and I was like, oh my god I want to be trendy and cool like all the trendy and cool girls and I want to put on that black stuff On my lips and peel it off.

3:31

I think it might look a little kooky crazy on me, but It was my first attempt, so we might just have to do a little more practice.

3:40

Anyway, let me show you what we're working with.If you don't remember, I had cleaned out the entire closet, wallpapered the little section that I want wallpapered, and because I thought these closets were going to be delivered in five days, my entire upstairs has beendisarray for, is that a word?My entire upstairs has been disheveled for a month and a half now because I really thought that they were gonna come through and deliver these shits in five days.

4:06

I've actually kind of organized this room pretty well.

4:14

Is it impossible to find anything at any given time?Yes.

4:20

If all goes well, All of these mysterious boxes turn into a beautiful closet.

4:25

Unfortunately, they put the pieces that I need last on top and the pieces that I need first on the bottom.So we're gonna have to rearrange this whole stack.Getting organized is really half the battle.Note to self, specify to delivery people to put the good shit on top.

4:49

Oh, great.

4:50

Yet another thing that claims to be team lift.You see, the way Ikea manipulates you is they put their instructions with little dummies so you think, oh, they can do it, I can do it.I did dent a wall on the way in and I am dripping sweat, but we got the first one in.One second, please.This is seemingly the most challenging part and we're gonna test it out and find out if this is gonna be an easy breezy day or a day that's gonna make me wanna jump off that bar.Doesn't seem like it's gonna be easy.

5:50

but I don't know what to do next.

5:51

God bless the internet, because I found somebody's dad, Ross Shofoon, that is going to teach us what the fuck we're doing.And just so you know, the top comment on this video is, you just saved my marriage.The last thing that anyone is begging for is another channel from my family.However, I do think my dad should make a channel where he teaches people how to do stupid stuff like this, so then people can do shit at home.Rise up, dads of the world, because I think these are some of the best channels.Okay, I knew there was a smaller one, and I was really hoping that it was the one that went right there, but I did not know for sure.

6:46

We know for sure.I didn't fuck up that.I was like, damn, am I getting weaker or did that shit get heavier?It did in fact get heavier by a lot.Just for this very special closet, I've acquired this clampy thingy.So far, so good.

7:14

Let's try to get this topper on.

7:26

20 minutes later.

7:29

The second one is done.

7:30

All we have to do is think strong thoughts.I can tell you one thing, there's gonna be a few dents on the wall.If anybody is wondering what I've been watching as of lately, I am backon Pretty Little Liars.I told the police that you mowed me down with your car.

7:49

You would not be here getting a slice of peach pie every day to wash down your mess.You'd be sharing a jail cell with someone calling you peach pie while you braid her back hair.

7:58

And I have gone through an entire season.I'm now on season 2, episode 6.First question, why?Do they not make TV shows so damn long anymore?These bitches had 24 episodes per season.Crazy.

8:16

Crazy.What I told myself when I started this was if I could finish an entire one side of a wall, I would be happy with that.And we're actually making pretty good progress, I would say.

8:34

Ah, hell, I forgot a hammer all the way down there.

8:38

dads across the nation would be so proud.I'm actually using the drywall mount, which a lot of the times I exile.

8:48

Okay.

8:49

Delusionally believing you can do it is the same as being able to do it, ladies.

9:12

Bottom incoming.No, that's not a gay joke.

9:15

We have one more for this wall and I'm going to try to rapid fire that shit.I mean, I will say for not having a ton of faith, that just made me so dizzy.Oh my God.Reverse that.putting on a brave face, but I for sure thought I was going to have to call my dad.We're doing pretty good.

there we go okay hey i am running out of i am running out of patience at a rapid speed everybody coming to you with the 6 p .m update i have two more big daddy bases to build but my body might collapse like i i really can't take anymore we're gonna do those tomorrow the temperature of bath that I'm going to bathe tonight is going to be comparable to what they cook the lobsters in at Mount Fuji.Because, ow.Ugh.Just because it's doable yourself doesn't mean it is not going to make your body break in half.That is my update for today.

11:05

I'm gonna play Dreamlight Valley and I'm gonna watch Pretty Little Liars like the 14 year old that I am.So, I'll see you guys tomorrow.And Cookie will too.Cookie likes to have her booty slapped.This is our booty slapping time.And if you're judging the booty slapping time, then you don't have to have booty slapping time, but look how happy it makes her.

11:24

Oh my God.

11:31

Okay, bye.

11:40

Good morning, everybody.We have made it to closet building day two, and while my back is not excited, I am excited to be able to organize this closet and finally give my treasure, Bombas, the storage that they deserve.Bombas makes the most comfortable socks in the history of feet, and now they are making it to the outside world.I am dying.Absolutely dying.to get my hands on these fruit socks or these polka dot socks.

12:08

For men and for women, they now have these Friday sandals and slides.These use a super light and cushy EVA footbed.It is that perfect sweet spot, not too soft, not too hard.And it has this slightly cup design so your foot doesn't do that awkward sliding out thing when you're walking.And if you are a person that likes to keep those toesies closed in, they also have the Friday clogs, which have built -in air vents to keep things breezy, Essentially, it's like walking on clouds, but socially acceptable for the public.And of course, my favorite part about Bombas and why I love working with them so much is they are truly a purpose -driven brand.

12:46

Socks, T -shirts, underwear are the number one, two, and three most requested items in homeless shelters.And for every item you purchase, Bombas donates one.Bombas has actually donated over 200 million essential clothing items across a network of 4 ,000 giving partners.Plus they have a 100 % happiness guarantee, free returns and exchanges, no questions asked.Even if something catastrophic happens, like your dog eats one of your socks or the dryer sucks it into its mysterious portal, Bombas will replace them for you.Ladies and gentlemen, this is your sign.

13:24

Let your feet experience luxury and know that you are supporting a brand that does so, so much good for you.for the world.As always, you can use the very special code MORGAN20, which will get you a 20 % off your first purchase, or this is technologically advanced people.You can scan this QR code right here.Thank you so, so much to Bombas for not only supporting my channel, but for being truly my favorite brand that never, ever lets me down.We love you Bombas.

13:52

And now, I'm out.

13:53

We will start building.

13:54

The tragedy of the morning is, in order to continue, I have to find a way to get these very heavy cabinets up on out of here.I think last time I tried to move these, my handy -dandy furniture removers did work.Did I scratch the hell out of my floor?This is your eviction notice.Oh, this is actually working well.Ah, except all the drawers are opening.

14:22

Okay, come on over.that can't stay there, but is it good enough for now?For me, it is.

14:33

We are so back in business, ladies.

14:41

Woo!Now the real fun can begin.Second wall, blank canvas.Yesterday when I tried to get the floorboard out, I just about ripped down the entire wall.Plank of death.

15:01

That's the hard part.

15:02

Well, I was going to tell you that I had finished all of the bases this morning, and then instead of doing that, Immediately lay down on the couch and took an hour nap.So if half of my face of makeup is missing on the left side of my cheek just now, I took the nap that I deserve.

15:21

She deserves!

15:23

I was doing so well.so long.I think I went, I don't even know, maybe an entire year without drinking an energy drink.And now, guess what, bitches?I might be back.Radioactive cheers.

15:38

Welcome to the post -manual labor, post -nap, 3 p .m.Ooh, it really, nobody bothered to tell me that there was new slushy flavors, the blue slush, the lime slush.Gross! with the vanilla creamer.I only put a little bit.It's seriously like a radioactive milkshake and I love, I love it, unfortunately.

16:06

Again, my freezer makes about five ice cubes per week and I haven't gone to get like a bag of ice.So, iceless up in this household, but cheers.We're back up.

16:21

Oh no.

16:22

The vibes were just so up and then I looked outside and the vibes are going back down.I think that they brought the wrong dumpster and I don't know how the hell I'm supposed to get shit in this dumpster because it's about 15 feet tall.As you can see, while I was building all of those bases, I did keep the trash kind of like community fat.What's the word?When something's like together?I made a blob of trash, threw it down here.

16:51

Oh my God, why did I just get so out of breath?What just happened?Anyway, blob of trash over here.Oh.It is like actually comical how damn tall this thing is.What the fuck?

17:20

Okay.Well, it's very tall and very scary and definitely not what I ordered and makes everything not convenient.

17:29

Looks like one of those weird skate parks.

17:38

Well, I guess we'll work with what we have.I'm gonna attempt to put all these shelves up.

17:59

It's actually pretty easy.

18:06

One for the money, two for the show, three something's ready, and I don't know about four.

18:13

Fingers cramping.

18:18

Oh my god.Did they have to put the most permanent Stickers of all time that I simply cannot remove stuck to the rod.I guess they had to.I did not anticipate this singular chair in my abandoned barn to feel so depressing.It's like one of those Netflix documentaries where I'm about to drop the most dramatic piece of information you've ever heard.Well, it's a new day.

18:58

Good news.No drama, no trauma.Don't know why.Could be the surplus of clouds that have been around lately.It's the third cloudy day in a row and I am feeling a little somber today for no given reason.Since I have a new shiny dumpster to

19:15

fill with all of my rotting wood, I thought we would do a little scenery change.I need to literally get out of that closet for the day.It's getting a little stuffy in there, a little claustrophobic.Oh, oh, you want to talk about drama?Somebody in my last video commented that with this In this wall -y looking thing, this shop vac, which I don't really know much about.This is my first one.

19:41

Somebody commented and said, girl, you need to empty that out as soon as you suck things up because you would not believe how fast spiders will make babies in that thing.

19:49

Oh, oh.

19:50

New fear unlocked.You can tell this is some high quality shit because my arm can barely hold it.Objective of the day, I really want to clean this off because I do think in my guest room that currently doesn't have a light, it just has wires sticking out of the ceiling, this very well could be exactly what I needed.Smarter not harder, ladies.

20:38

Disregard my temporary closet.This light, as I was telling you, is going to go up here.Because this appears to be about a trillion years old, my dad told me to order a new one of these and then I'll get back to you when we stick this sucker up.Are you ready to see what I've been working on?I'm ready.Are you ready?

21:00

Oh gosh, yes, I'm so excited.Are you ready?I was gonna have dad do this and then I got a whiff of I can do it.Oh mythis is what mom and I picked up from Facebook marketplace yeah that's what she picked up the other day say hey We're here!Where are we going?

21:24

We're going on a special excursion because this morning I found the most gorgeous, beautiful, stunning, big antique mirror from 1920, so they claim.And I have watched enough Kendall Rae to know that you should not Facebook Marketplace without a buddy.

21:40

Okay, well I'm your buddy, but I'm not sure I could beat anyone up.Where have you been, girl?

21:45

Pilates mom's kicking everyone's ass.She's blowing all these fitness girls out of the water.She called me this morning She said I've been to Pilates four times this week.What about you?None four times week.This is the beginning of the week again, then do you feel tone -tanned fit and ready?

22:01

No, but Our lady was not a serial killer.Look how gorge little tiny flowers So cute I'm afraid I'm gonna take a picture in it and a ghost is gonna be standing behind me, but...No, it won't happen.But it's beautiful, Morgan.I don't think it could be any darker or sadder.

22:29

But you got a window.It's just a dark day.

22:32

Oh my gosh, Morgan, this is so incredible.I built the drawers last night, but I haven't put the...I know.If you want to go up there...You just gotta be really skinny.We're gonna have to cut a bigger hole or bring Ryan out.

22:48

He's the only one that's skinny enough to fit in.

22:50

I can't believe the wallpaper.I just love it so much.You put these up yourself?

22:55

Yeah, my back is aching.Can you step walk on my back for me?

22:59

Can you believe my daughter?I could never do this, Morgan.

23:03

Well, I learned it all from dad.

23:05

Wow.This is incredible.And the wallpaper is incredible.You did that too?

23:13

Where your hinges go and put your drawers in?

23:15

Yeah, I gotta screw these.I need to map it out first so I don't screw it up.Right.But they put the most annoying stickers on everything that are so hard to get off.

23:27

Oh, I hate stickers.And so this is from Ikea.

23:36

You could be my roommate, you know, ditch her and come on over here.She would love that.Whoa.

23:43

No, I'm not as good as a caretaker as my mom.

23:47

Careful what you wish for.You just might get it.

23:50

Rise and shine.Bob the build us.I bet you could have never guessed that I would come back to you.From the closet, here we are.Day, I don't even know what day we're on.Three, four, they're all blurring together.

24:03

Here I am at 8 a .m.reaping the benefits of all of those who have come before me who have tried, not tried, succeeded at making instructional videos.Last night I got a whiff of energy at the end of the night and I built all of these drawers.But now I'm thinking ahead and realizing, OMG, let's test it out before we commit to the to the setup.

24:25

I think I put these together right.What the heck?Oh, there we go.That works.Oh, what are these people saying?Oh my gosh.

24:42

Group chat blowing up with puke emoji, puke emoji, puke emoji.I'm gonna be honest, I'm starting to question, do Ryland and Lizzie ever not have the stomach bug?Like, are they ever not dying of illness?Reject, reject, reject, I revoke.all signs of the stomach bug coming my way.Not in this house, not in this closet.

25:04

My dad is coming over today to help me with miscellaneous things.There are miscellaneous things that are just too complicated for a young gal.So my dad is coming over today.He's gonna help me put up these mirrors that I've been trying to put up for the past two and a half years.My garbage disposal, very glamorous problem, is clogged and all of the water just spouts through to the bottom of the sink and I have to empty out a bucket every day.My dad's coming over to do advanced work.

25:31

This is, this is beginner, beginner -mediate.What we're doing in here, this is girl -friendly.What my dad's coming over to do, I'm not sticking my hand in a garbage disposal.I'm not there yet.Happy Thursday.Now that I have a place to put my underwear, it's over for you bitches.

25:54

Don't forget it.I thought I had it figured out, but one was crooked.Now we're good.

26:04

He has the textbook back out.

26:07

Well, because we need to know where it's coming from.So see, so it's coming in here and then it ends here.Oh yeah.See, switch control receptacle.

26:16

We totally know what you're talking about.

26:19

Screw that, Chad GPT.

26:21

Yeah, OpenAI has nothing on complete home workings.And he has the strippers for the cords.I don't have one of these fancy contraptions.Calling it with a hope and a prayer.Oh, beautiful.Catch.

26:43

I think so.Wow, that makes a big difference.Skin light, makeup light.I think that's de -steaming when you take a shower.

26:52

Oh yes, de -frost, yeah.

26:57

Wow.Home Depot Memorial Day sale, everyone.I went on this Bougie Mirror website and did a custom one, and it came out to like $1 ,200 for each one.And then I Google reverse searched it, and Home Depot has the same damn thing for $250.

27:12

That is perfectly level.

27:15

A little to the right.

27:17

There.

27:18

That's crooked.

27:23

Gorgeous.Message of hope coming from a young lady with a very sore spine.We're on the last three shelves of this tan stuff.And I have never been so excited in my entire life to see the end of a pile.There are doors.I'm gonna go one step at a time.

27:44

And after I finish with the tan shit, we're taking a break.

27:47

Because as fun as this has been, I am going to need to find a very advanced chiropractor because I am in a severe, severe amount of pain.

27:57

and I can't take it anymore.I know that nobody cares, but I'm severely constipated, and my stomach hurts, and my back hurts, and my brain hurts, and my fingers hurt.

28:08

I've fallen, and I can't get up.

28:13

This is a great accomplishment that has come with a lot of physical altercations.As much as I despise, with every fiber of my being, going to the physical IKEA store, they, listen, I've forgiven them for delivering my shit two months later.I ordered all black hanging rods and I think they just sent me a concoction of whatever they can find.We are gonna have to go to the big scary blue box.and I'm gonna try to return these ones and get ones to match the rest of the ones that I ordered.Are we gonna go do that today?

28:56

Definitely not.Sorry.I got these doors they're double doors for each of the panels and it's a wood and a ribbed glass situation.What I love about the internet is you can see what other good shit people get and then you can just copy paste.If we're looking to the future of what the finished product will be each panel will have a double door and then I got cute little brass knobs but I'm definitely gonna have to bring my dad back because there's no way I can levitate this door and screw it in.That's future planning.

29:30

I also have the itch that I really want to fill in all of these holes that aren't being used and then there's a paint mash that you can do and paint over them so it's a smooth surface versus a bunch of holes.If I wanted to be really advanced, which I think one day I'll get there, I don't know if it'll be this week, I do want to put trim pieces around the open gaps so it looks more built into the wall.But that's a dream for another day, I can tell you that much.
