I'm guessing they are either having financial troubles or her health has taken a turn and she thinks people will blame her for: not going to the doctor/eating crap/using smart water and oils to cure herself. I don't know how much her husband makes, but she quit her job to support herself doing lettering/podcasting which I cannot see makes her money since she doesn't actively sell herself. She also likes to spend money, a lot, on crap. Her husband owns his own music tech business and is a professional player in the Nashville music scene. She’s not unemployed. The Scrap Gals Podcast is on a for-pay platform now at $5 a month and has about 2500 subscribers. They are also hosting retreats and cruises. I have no doubt that she will eventually spill the beans about whatever the current life drama is—she can’t help herself. She’s gossipy. The Las Vegas retreat is following in the steps of the Seattle retreat that wasn’t really in Seattle. LV is actually happening in Henderson.

Taxes? Don't extensions come due in October? Ha, the filing of the forms does, but the money was due in April. So if she's worried about paying now, well, she's already super late so it doesn't matter. There is no benefit to paying by the October deadline over paying after that except that there is less interest... but the interest started accruing back in April.
[[Sorry, tax attorney/tax nerd here... ]]
Maybe she has to pay her 2019 quarterly estimated payment and they don’t have enough? She is self-employed so she probably has to make estimated payments. .

So they're clearing $150K a year just on their podcast? That's pretty amazing. I guess she won't have to beg and borrow for bills again.

I live in Las Vegas and do ALL of my shopping in Henderson with rare exception. The strip is still less than 10 minutes from me in good traffic. If it were in Pahrump or Laughlin then it would probably be comparable, but Henderson is not that far off strip at all. Even deep Henderson is not that far away.

Didn't her husband release new music last year? I think it was a five song EP. I am not snarking. He is talented. I remember seeing his name come up in my music news feeds last year. I remember thinking when it popped up on my feeds that he must have a following and his agency deems his financial worthy enough to give him some promotion. Thinking entertainment industry and not snarking. I thought he must do decently well in the music industry. He seems to have made a steady career. I am sure he's not rolling in the money but it's steady enough he concentrate on music full time. I can't see why this new drama is related to money unless it's taxes.

Oh, she definitely has to make quarterly estimated payments. But the IRS doesn't check if you have paid the right amount or do anything about it until you file your return in April and then the account is reconciled to make sure the estimated payments were sufficient. Tracy just doesn't strike me as the "worry now about something that will not be a problem for more than 6 months" type.

No telling. As long as she isn't over dramatizing publicly, I am all good.
Does she actually even scrapbook anymore or does she just still talk about it and re-organize? I think their podcast is hurting. They are now shilling "freebies" along with their subscription. You all know that would not be happening unless they are trying to drum up some more business. Tracie isn't going to do anything that does not benefit her in some way (i.e., money in her pocket).
Personally, I have always found it strange that her husband is gone so much... a musician in the heart of country music land, yet he is always traveling elsewhere and she never joins along. Their daughter is old enough to be home alone and she could have even traveled with him when their child while younger as she was home schooled.

Thats him. He is really talented. He is really talented. He seems to be a sweet man. I have heard of his rep in the music industry before I knew he was Tracie's DH. He has a good reputation.
I am so confused. I know this is nosy. Did Tracie's DD have a baby? I know Tracie didn't have a baby. I am assuming she says her little girl because it's a sentiment. I do that too with my friends kids. Those are my babies, lol. My friends said the same thing with my little boy. That precious girl is so cute. She's just the cutest. That smile lights up a room. I know nosy. That little girl is just squeal cute. I always had a soft spot for Tracie's daughter. Wanted to wish her congrats if that is her baby.
Is Tracie scrapbooking any more? Not snarking. I am not scrapbooking either but here I am! I have no room to talk, lol. I thought maybe she went a different direction like I did adding photo's to journals. I can't imagine what she could be doing at these retreats. Don't say eating at Cracker Barrel, ROFL! Seriously is she teaching anything expert at these retreats. I remember that cruise and her reading that printout, lol.

The baby she calls "our baby" is Tracie's friends baby. I thought the friend was the grandmother but apparently she's the mother of the baby or so we've been told.
I have no idea what Tracie is doing these days. I listened to ONE of her First Love podcasts with Cori Speaker (not sure exactly how to spell her name, The Reset Girl). It was about setting up a prayer binder or journal. I actually thought Cori was great on the podcast. She was super informative on exactly how she set up her binder and the reasons why. She provided a long list of resources and websites and explained why she liked each one and what they had to offer. Traci acted so clueless and ignorant, I was embarrassed for her. I know they are supposedly friends now but even Cori seemed taken aback a couple times by her stupid comments and questions. She paused a beat before answering.
Tracie (whether it's the truth or not) acted like she was utterly clueless about Bible Journaling. She said she had no clue people kept prayer journals and acted completely ignorant of Bible Journaling. I find that very hard to believe from Miss Prissy Christian Former Scrapbook Lady as it's a pretty popular "craft/hobby" right now. She also said something like she had no clue there were places online where groups of Christian women could gather, like message boards and such. She says her friends that she talks to online are already Christian and she had no clue there were places to actually seek out those friendships. She was basically acting clueless there were so many Christian blogs and websites that Cori spoke of. The whole podcast was ridiculous on her end. Like I said, I was embarrassed for her. And that voice. Yikes.

Where had the baby been the past 11 months? That’s what I keep questioning.

I can understand loving on your friends baby but all the posting and focusing on her is a bit weird. I do not think under any circumstance I would post about someone elses child as much as she does.

And as the baby's mom, there is no way I would allow someone else to post so intimately about my child.

FYI - I live in Vegas too (actually Henderson) and the address she listed on the retreat was in a really gross area. So I am wondering if she posted an incorrect address or is that clueless about cities here.

She's picking based on finding the cheapest deal she can vs. attendees having a good experience. Just my two cents.

Their daughter is old enough to be home alone and she could have even traveled with him when their child while younger as she was home schooled. Feeling helpless and hopeless, but still eating a Cracker Barrel.... Touring with other musicians is pretty common. Being based in Nashville is pretty common. Tracie is a germophobe and doesn’t fly. Most wives of band players don’t travel with the players. Tracie’s friend Kendra is the baby’s mother. Tracie said that “she prayed last year that God would bring a beautiful baby into her life” and then Kendra got pregnant at 47. Tracie has said Kendra doesn’t scrapbook and she’s not on social media but that she (Tracie) might scrapbook for her. She also said in one recent podcast that she might make herself a book of all these great pictures she takes of the baby but then Kendra would want to learn to scrapbook so she could have a book too and “that would be too much trouble to teach her everything so I should just make her a book too”. The irony is that Tracie never actually does any scrapbooking. Tiffany’s daughter is now pregnant. Tiffany is going to be a grandmother. It seems like Tracie felt the need to keep up, so she gushed about “her baby” that’s not really her baby.

What a be-otch. She’s such a great friend - “bestie” - but Tracie can’t be bothered to teach her to scrapbook (assuming she would even ask the GREAT ONE for help), but then complains on the podcast about how to get new people into scrapping. 🙄

I assume this must have been fake in order to be the "oh really, I had no idea, tell me more" person in the conversation, or she's been hiding under a rock for several years. I'm an atheist but I know about Bible Journaling. It's everywhere. If you have any interest in art, journaling, lettering, pens, planners, anything like that, you will find Bible Journaling and prayer journals etc whether you want to know about it or not. I tend to avoid people who post a lot of religious things and I still see plenty of Christian journal crafts. And if a person has ever been online they have to know that there are message boards for every single thing a person could be interested in. ev-er-y-thing... O.o

She’s the one who decided to hold a retreat in Vegas. Now she’s all up in the group posting about how she’s never driven that far across the country alone and asking people for advice.

With GPS on phones and the internet at your fingertips, it's not daunting to drive long distances. Getting a prescription for Xanax, hand sanitizer, getting on a plane, and praying to God (because all things are possible!) would be the quickest option to get to Vegas.

This town is built for hosting events and having options for every need - including smoke free. She did not need to pick a hotel directly across from the Wild Wild West. Never heard of it? Probably because it is gross and the site of lots of illegal things. And it is over the freeway from the strip. The hotel website did mention a shuttle to the strip so hopefully people use it because that is not an area you want to be walking around in. Even if they have a car rental, that intersection is a busy one and the LSS is not super convenient to get to from there. She mentioned working with someone here so who knows why that location was chosen.
