I admit to being a complete sucker for Tupperware.  We have multiple Tupperware pieces from the 70s to today.    My mom hosted a couple of Tupperware parties when I was little, and I hosted one myself when I was engaged.  I still have all the pieces I bought and earned, and my dad just gave me some tiny versions of the 70s cereal bowls that we had for years.  They are still good and holding up 50 years later.   

You can buy Tupperware on Amazon now.  No need to host or attend a party to get it.   

 

I'm a bit of a sucker for Pampered Chef knives (or I was - they changed them) and also SOME 31 bags. But it's very specific. And I haaaate parties like that. I did have one friend who decided to invite ALL her friends who had this stuff to sell to a party on one night. Each person selling something had a different table set up with their stuff and she just had apps and drinks. You came, you bought if you wanted, you drank and mingled. NO PRESSURE.

This kind of stuff reminds me of the home parties to sell Tupperware, Pampered Chef and Mary Kay Cosmetics, etc., that used to be the way “housewives” drummed up some extra spending money. Ugh. I got invited to so many of those and never really had the money to buy any of it. I’m frugal enough to not want to pay more when I can get similar products for less. I always felt like I was missing something because I wasn’t all gung-ho about these parties and the merchandise the way other women were.

I saw Jill's Isla pregnancy photos on FB.  She looked so happy and peaceful in them and actually looked further along than 20 weeks.    

You can see that Isla was already so wanted and loved by the entire Dillard family, including Dan's crew as well as Cathy.  

I hope Jill, as well as Derick are seeking whatever care they can in order to heal as best they can.

I needed psychiatric care and medication to help me in the aftermath of several pregnancy losses. 
 

I had not been raised in a family who embraced psychiatric care. I felt such shame and self recrimination for needing help, but I needed it and my husband was so encouraging and kind. 
 

I hope Jill is getting all the care she needs. If that includes medication, I hope she has all the emotional and medical support possible. 

Of all the Duggars I feel most secure that Jill will be the one seeking the right psychiatric care. She was already seeing an actual licensed therapist right? They will probably signal when more care is needed.
