My husband got braces in April, it’s something he’s wanted his whole life and now in his 40s he did it. Our dental didn’t cover any of it but I have a CareCredit credit card and that worked out great for us and my credit lol. I can’t wait to see him smile more and his confidence grow after this journey is over. Thousands of dollar smile he will have ! Lol
I am usually just a silent watcher. I have been subscribed for so long and wanted you to know how proud so many of us are of you. Those clips of your babies brought tears to my eyes. You have done such a good job, babe.
I appreciate my mom SOOOO much for all the money she spent on me as a kid but especially braces. I hated smiling until my teeth were fixed. It had a big impact on my self esteem. Also who cares if you spent the same money or more in the past, spending a lot of money all at once hurts no matter what!
I’ve lost track of how many years I’ve watched you, but it always takes my by surprise when you’ve mentioned how long you’ve been in your new house! Time has passed by so fast, but I can also remember and appreciate the different “Sarah eras” -normally marked by your coffee habits at the time 😂
My mother through all my childhood repeatedly told me to never depend on a man and I found out the hard way half the time you can’t. Especially when they emotionally or physically abuse you. So I learnt not to depend on anyone but myself. The negative of that is now that I am married to a great man I have a hard time asking him for help or allowing him to help me with anything. He gets so frustrated with me, but he also understands that I just don’t know how to ask for help. I’m not used to having someone be willing to help me.
12:06 oooh girl. We went through some very similar stuff at a very similar time. I feel the same way looking back at that time of my life. It’s wild. Like living so many lifetimes.
Girl, you are absolutely not alone in feeling the way you do about not being able to relinquish control. It is SO HARD to let down your guard & be vulnerable with anyone when you’ve been MAJORLY SCREWED OVER by the one person who was supposed to be the one to “hold you down”. It sucks & I wish I didn’t feel the way I feel. But at the same time, it’s been my survival mechanism ever since & has allowed me to achieve all the things I have so far in my life. Hoping one day it won’t be this way & I can finally hang up my cape, cuz ya girl is TIRED of always being in control! But at the same time, I can’t bring myself to do it. So yeah-the struggle is REAL!
My mom couldn’t afford braces so I paid for them myself at 18 - I know it’s a lot of money but a good smile lasts your whole life and the confidence nice teeth gives you is priceless. It’s insane how expensive it is but amazing you are able to give your children that!! Sending love from OH!
I can't believe how expensive everything health related is in the US. I work in the med field and still can't get over that basic healthcare is locked behind a big check for a lot of people (not just talking about braces). It is expensive but the kids will apriciate it. I had my braces removed a couple of months ago and I'm almost 30. Im finally smiling with confidence.
Those precious moments with your babies are so sweet. I'm sorry that it was in a bad situation. I'm so proud of you for taking your little's and making it right for all of you. Mad respect ❤ You can put your old candles in the freezer and it will pop out easily after frozen for a few hours. Have a wonderful weekend 🥰
Hi Sarah! I recommend you looking at the benefits breakdown, premium, deductible and coverages with policies and deciding what is best for your family. Since you are coming up on open enrollment at the end of the year, you might be better off looking for a dental policy with a higher coverage for ortho. You’ll end up saving tons of money. I try to plan in advanced what my family will need for the year when choosing a policy. I am in the medical billing field btw! 😊
Yes talk to an agent that can shop multiple companies and policies for you and give you different options. Tough love: Hoping for the best isn't a plan, it's allowing someone else to control your future expenses.
Good morning Sarah, Happy Friday! 🙌🎉 I love how your mom makes things from scratch. That coaster is a 1 of 1 💖 That Mary J. Blige CD was a throwback, sis! I knew exactly what album cover you were referring to. My mom always had it on repeat when she was going threw it, even my dad would be bumping her music at my school in the parent pick-up line 😆 I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to watch you succeed over these years, girl! I also want you to know that your influence has improved my life in more ways than I can count. Your impact on people is life changing 🫶💯❤️
Omg, I loved seeing the kids as ting humans again. They were just too cute. When J started giggling, that was just cuteness overload 😍💞. On another note, Sarah the rapper is a whole vibe 🙌🏾
Hey Sarah! I am not sure what insurance you have now, but United Healthcare and Blue Cross Blue Shield usually has pretty good coverage. I have sold insurance for a couple years now; I mostly work with people who have Medicare/Medicade plans though so I am not sure how that differs from ACA plans. Most employers and indivduals are really happy with their coverage through those providers and I believe both have dental and vision options as well. Hope this helps!!!
Aww Jay🥹.. baby laughs are best! And I definitely feel you, Sarah.. thank God you are in a much much better place. I pray everyone who is going through a tough time gets to the other side, better side. 💕
Love the videos of little jay 😭😭🤍 you have overcome so much in your life, and you deserve all the good that has happened to you 🤞🏻🩵 you are seriously such a light in this world I truly appreciate you sharing your life with us. Also love the singing, in Spanish too girl get it 👏🏻😂
In my town there is a candle company that will fill any container you bring in with wax and wicks and they have hundreds of scents to choose from. I do pottery and often give my pottery made into a candle for gifts.
26:23 Idunno if anyone else has suggested this but if you put the candle in the freezer, it’s easier to get the wax out and then you can wash it by hand and just use as a container! I do this when all the wicks are burnt but I still have candle left, I just cut them up into tiny pieces and use them with our wax warmer! Hope it helps. 😊
Gosh, time truly flies. I remember finding you back in 2015/16 when I was going through it and I would pray for us both every day! We’ve come so far! 🖤🫶🏼
When you played the old footage of your kids, and hearing you say how happy you are to have moved on from those situations and how it feels like a different life, hit home with me. I've watched since around that time, and went through sucky boyfriend stuff in my own life for many years and finally made it out, and now I have a partner who is lovely to me lile LG is to you, and I look back on those years of my life, and it really does feel like a different life or like I'm thinking of a story of another person, it's hard to believe at the time I thought I would never make it to the better side of things, and now I reminiscence and view the memories from the better side of things. It's a weird and odd feeling. I'm glad someone else has mentioned it If anything girl youve created happy, healthy, bright children with bright futures and you should be proud. The reasons they smile and laugh is thanks to stepping up to the plate full force and being a great damn mom and you should be proud
Just letting you know.... If your mother made and sold those adorable cat coasters....SHE would make bank. I know I'm NOT the only crazy cat lady that saw that coaster and said " omg, I want one!"😻😻
As you are talking about being a stay at home mom it feels like we’re having a deep conversation. I respect and can maybe understand it with that said there is nothing like having your own. Life is funny and you just never know where it will take you. I’m getting married soon as much I l love and respect my soon to be husband I know things can always change and sharing the financial burden can sometimes help your relationship. Side note, Jayden’s laugh too cute.
Omg girl those precious babiessssss. That giggle omg. You suffered in that relationship but those amazing kids you have 💜💜💜 so worth it. They are amazing. I’m sure you are so proud of them and of yourself for being such an amazing mother. 🙌
I actually used to work for the Health Insurance marketplace and I worked for United healthcares Medicare side also so if you ever need help understanding what a plan does or doesn’t cover I would be happy to take a peep at plans and explain the basics. I don’t sell insurance but from having to explain it to your average person I have a pretty good understanding of the jargon. 💓
Happy Friday! Hope you woke up actually feeling better this morning. Also, your cottage cheese smoked salmon bowl looked delicious! I bet adding some pickled red onions to it would be amazing too!!
Hey Sarah. Love your channel. If there are remnants of wax left in a candle holder just stick it in the freezer for a couple hours and it will pop outwith no residue.
I have GREAT health, vision & dental coverage!! It’s just me though (one adult). Fidelis Care, but I’m in NY so I can’t speak for your state miss Sarah
Just had this conversation about dental insurance with my new dentist- previous one retired- and he basically said insurance is pushing back on paying for anything that a not cleaning and extracting. I am looking to upgrade some stuff and he said they would give me a cash discount of 20% which is cheaper than the insurance premiums and the small percentage they pay of procedures. I do have a care credit card with 3,000 limit. Interest is high, but you can always pay it off faster and you do get rewards for using the card on specific things . They add up.
Try to go directly through the health plan instead of Obama care. Delta dental is pretty good coverage but not all plans cover orthotics but it definitely covers cleanings and you pay 20% of fillings and stuff up to a certain amount. Definitely call Cigna or Aetna directly bc that’s a lot of money if your still having a deductible amount.
I’ve checked lots of dental insurance companies and none seemed very good. I considered canceling myself but the dentists do give a huge discount for insurance. They just don’t pay much for the procedures.
Hey SarahRae!!!! I worked for an insurance company... what I have learned working there and personally... Insurance usually will only oay a big lump or cover braces once in a lifetime. Hope this helps! You are a great mom!!!!
Wow. Beautiful video loved it. Now with your acorn candle. You can melt the remaining wax by putting the acorn without the lid in boiling water. Watch over it it should melt fast and have oven to remove it. Then I put a little bit of the wax to burn already melted. The one I use I buy mine from dollar tree and I get tea lights and boom you could burn the same candle and use the acorn container as a decorative item around your casa.
When looking at insurance plans think about what you are going to use and what you’re comfortable paying out of pocket. If possible add an HSA plan so you can use the saved money for health expenses often pre-tax. Also always ask for the uninsured price as it is often cheaper. Don’t forget to shop around for care.
My situation exactly. Husband of 18 years wants separation and moved out. I have nothing to fall back on because we agreed 7 years ago when I quit my job I'd stay home and take care of my son and the household. So lost and need to find a way to get out this hole. But the financial situation is not as hard as the heartbreak. 😢
Warming light or plate, you still cover it before it sets up, and it'll retain the fragrance longer. Shut off the heat lamp, put on the lid, and let it resolidify with the lid on. It retraps the fragrance into the wax instead of letting it out into the air. As far as what to do with the vessel, you can melt the remaining wax and dump it in the trash. Never down a drain. Then wash it with warm, soapy water. Use for whatever. Holding whatever will fit into it. Paper clips, mints, hair ties/elastic bands, whatever.
Everything in medical so expensive. I had a friend that had to have a colostomy put in and it was supposed to be temporary but because of her insurance she had to have it on for three years till she could afford to get it off. There are a lot of people hurting they can barely even eat where I’m from there’s a lot of people that have crooked teeth because it’s so expensive. A lot of them have waited till they were adults to afford it. Your kids are truly blessed and so are you.
We only do “catastrophe” insurance. The lowest premium just in case, but we pay cash for everything, mostly just sports physicals. We do have a non-taxed fund we can put $ into and can use that for the payments. Helpful. Yes, 2 of our kids had braces twice as well. Crazy expensive. But, their confident smiles are worth it. 😁
I know that exact feeling. Oh seeing our old life. That was me yesterday. Seeing someone from when I was 18-23ish. And seen them after almost 10years on the freeway.
Regarding dental insurance, I have it through my employer and it still isn't great. It's basically because there are very few/no pre-negotiated rates in the dental field so dental insurance companies can just cover whatever they want.
I work as a nurse and our insurance is pretty good we have Aetna and for my kids it covered 2500 for braces for each one it’s not much when the final cost is so much but it does help and we pay 100 a month. Covers almost the entire cost of meds for healthcare too so can’t complain too much
I suggest shopping around for a new ortho for prices, dental insurance doesn't ever cover much of the braces. I did a 2nd round of braces as an adult and delta covered some of it. I still had a car payment monthly while they were on my teeth.
I started feeling that way yesterday, then today, slept in and sweat out my bed. Sigh. Took a hot shower and I feel better, but my head is so full of snot on the right side. Just the right side, though. I hope you feel better!
I work in a community health center in Florida, and what I always suggest to my patients is to come in and talk to our insurance specialist here, she will know how to guide you and what would be the best coverage for you. But don’t talk to an insurance person anywhere else. A community center cares differently than the insurance companies. They just want the sale.
I’m convinced there is no such thing as good dental. But I just heard about surest insurance (in a diff state but maybe still applies) and with it you know full price upfront before you go anywhere. You can do a demo online and type in “sinus infection”, “pediatrician,” “braces” or anything and see people in your area and what it would cost you to go there. supposedly you never get an “after” bill.
Love love love this video. From Jays adorable laugh! Your singing!!!! You and your man exercising together!!! Love this videos vibe! Have a good weekend S-a-rrrrah
Try putting the acorn candle in the freezer- it will make it easy to pop the wax out. You also could place it in a shallow pot with boiling water to melt the wax and pour it out
Save all your cute empty candle jars and start making your own candles, You can customize your own sents and then reuse the candle jars for each season.
Most dental insurance not real good .Usually cover only 80% of basic dental .Anything above fillings,cleanings,simple extractions ,basic exrays is like they cover 20 to 30 if at all.Some employers have Health savings account where you save your own money per pay for health items.Its not a great healthcare system we have.
Hi Sarah, I feel you on the dental insurance, it seems like its never enough to cover big procedures. I have Dental Delta PPO, you can get individual and I have it and I love it. I do have it thru my work but I have heard that overall its great dental coverage. Love the vlogs BTW :)
Hey Sarah, you could find a pre-workout powder that works for you. Has caffeine and some don't give you jitters like an energy drink can. In Australia we have a brand called naked harvest which is my go to
You have made a wonderful life for you and your family,be proud💜I'm a old girl but I look up to you😎clean the candle holder and use it to hold something even if it's paper clips
Also agree dental Insurance is a sham! Mine pays $1500 per family member a year which isn’t much tbh. We are in IN. I still had to pay out of pocket for a crown. I wonder if I can find another policy?! Have 2 policies…. Idek I’d have to do some research & read the fine print. Have a good weekend y’all!
That little giggle from Baby Jay made me smile so big! 🥹
This!!!! Baby giggles are my favorite sound in the world. You can not be upset when you hear baby’s laughing.
Same!! ❤

listening to you singing with my airpods in put a smile on my face this morning 😂 so happy to watch you be yourself!
Those baby giggles from Jay melted my heart!

as someone who struggled/still struggles with an eating disorder, that salt comment hit home. love your videos ❤
Get a second quote on the braces! Dental things vary so much from place to place.

👀👀 I wonder what those prices are?
This vlog felt so chaotic and i looooooove it 🤣
Good morning Sarah, Happy Friday! 🙌🎉 I love how your mom makes things from scratch. That coaster is a 1 of 1 💖
That Mary J. Blige CD was a throwback, sis! I knew exactly what album cover you were referring to. My mom always had it on repeat when she was going threw it, even my dad would be bumping her music at my school in the parent pick-up line 😆
I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to watch you succeed over these years, girl! I also want you to know that your influence has improved my life in more ways than I can count. Your impact on people is life changing 🫶💯❤️
Girllll you are a whole vibe with your singing! 🙌🏻
Awww Sarah you are such a strong woman. In love seeing that video of laughing. ❤
Thank you for this video. My heart needed it. You’re my comfort videos when I’m having a hard day.
I could feel that memory come to life as you talked about it. My heart feels for you and your babies.
lol gurlll just love ya I can watch you talk about nothing & everything all day 😂😂 so relaxing and always make me giggle
Omg, I loved seeing the kids as ting humans again. They were just too cute. When J started giggling, that was just cuteness overload 😍💞. On another note, Sarah the rapper is a whole vibe 🙌🏾
My favorite TH-cam GAL! Love you SRV!much love from SOCAL ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Girl, I would love an Aldi haul!! There’s one in my town, but I never go and idk what’s good or not.
It felt like karaoke night 😅 loved it. Hope you're feeling better
Great way to start my Friday😊

I love how you are slipping in snippets of the kiddos when they were younger...... memories!!! 💙
Hearing you singing 😂😂gave me an idea for videos i think you would do so much justice

But the financial situation is not as hard as the heartbreak. 😢
I live in Europe, Romania. The whole braces treatment is under $2000. Without any insurance. US prices are shocking.

Preworkout they even have non stimulant ones.. I mix it in 2-3 oz and take it as a shot if you don’t want to mix it in 6-12oz of water
I know that exact feeling. Oh seeing our old life. That was me yesterday. Seeing someone from when I was 18-23ish. And seen them after almost 10years on the freeway.

That clip of baby Jay laughing made my 19 months old son laugh so hard! He thinks other kids laughing is hilarious
That MJB deal was great 👍 you're so funny...that was good
I suggest shopping around for a new ortho for prices, dental insurance doesn't ever cover much of the braces. I did a 2nd round of braces as an adult and delta covered some of it. I still had a car payment monthly while they were on my teeth.
Walgreens brand passion fruit hydration packs are delicious! By far my favorite.
I started feeling that way yesterday, then today, slept in and sweat out my bed. Sigh. Took a hot shower and I feel better, but my head is so full of snot on the right side. Just the right side, though. I hope you feel better!
Awww the kids are soooo cute. I love that you shared that pastime with us🤗😉😁😊
I work in a community health center in Florida, and what I always suggest to my patients is to come in and talk to our insurance specialist here, she will know how to guide you and what would be the best coverage for you. But don’t talk to an insurance person anywhere else. A community center cares differently than the insurance companies. They just want the sale.
I’m convinced there is no such thing as good dental. But I just heard about surest insurance (in a diff state but maybe still applies) and with it you know full price upfront before you go anywhere. You can do a demo online and type in “sinus infection”, “pediatrician,” “braces” or anything and see people in your area and what it would cost you to go there. supposedly you never get an “after” bill.
I love that white sweater on you look so cute ❤
Love love love this video. From Jays adorable laugh! Your singing!!!! You and your man exercising together!!! Love this videos vibe! Have a good weekend S-a-rrrrah
Lmao. I needed that rap sesh 😂😂😂😂 thank you.
Try putting the acorn candle in the freezer- it will make it easy to pop the wax out. You also could place it in a shallow pot with boiling water to melt the wax and pour it out
Hope you woke up feeling better this morning!!
Ok extra loving this vlog. Feel like so much of your personality showed and it was very enjoyable 😊
Save all your cute empty candle jars and start making your own candles, You can customize your own sents and then reuse the candle jars for each season.
Girl I got my daughter Smile Direct Club. They are amazing and they are clear retainers. So awesome like a 5 month plan! She loves them!
I love your videos. I’m glad you post!😊
Most dental insurance not real good .Usually cover only 80% of basic dental .Anything above fillings,cleanings,simple extractions ,basic exrays is like they cover 20 to 30 if at all.Some employers have Health savings account where you save your own money per pay for health items.Its not a great healthcare system we have.
I just want to say I think you are really gorgeous ❤ and I love how you do your makeup
Sarah uncooked smoked salmon is aka Lox which you ate in your cottage cheese bowl thing cooked is just smoked salmon for future reference
Ive prolly said this before but my mom and I look forward to your videos every morning. We watch while eating breakfast..it’s always a good time 👍
Hi Sarah, I feel you on the dental insurance, it seems like its never enough to cover big procedures. I have Dental Delta PPO, you can get individual and I have it and I love it. I do have it thru my work but I have heard that overall its great dental coverage. Love the vlogs BTW :)
Love the steaks from Aldi. I usually buy skirtsteak from there. Their fresh hamburgers are good too. I add a lil seasoning.
Hey Sarah, you could find a pre-workout powder that works for you. Has caffeine and some don't give you jitters like an energy drink can. In Australia we have a brand called naked harvest which is my go to
Love You Sarah! Your amazing!!
You have made a wonderful life for you and your family,be proud💜I'm a old girl but I look up to you😎clean the candle holder and use it to hold something even if it's paper clips
Also agree dental Insurance is a sham! Mine pays $1500 per family member a year which isn’t much tbh. We are in IN. I still had to pay out of pocket for a crown. I wonder if I can find another policy?! Have 2 policies…. Idek I’d have to do some research & read the fine print.
Have a good weekend y’all!
I love your makeup at the end of the blog 😊
You look so pretty ❤
