KATE GOSSELIN: HOW SHE FOOLED THE WORLD - THE RISE AND FALL OF A REALITY TV QUEEN (102 page)
Kate’s eight children were in the house with her during the power outage yet she was glad that she didn’t feel alone because Twitter strangers were there to comfort and encourage her. I guess the little kids were comforting and encouraging themselves as usual. Pathetic.
Dear PP&L: My 8kids want pancakes 4bkfast&I NEED coffee2function as a momof8. If u can fix r wires b4 am I’ll b 4ever grateful.Luv,gosselins
It would be such a treat to hear Kate speak or give an interview without constantly reminding everyone that she has eight children. Yes, Kate, we get it. You have eight kids. You’re a mom of eight. Kateplusmy8. We get it! What else can you do?
I am warm and so r my kids. I need2go2sleep now.It’s been a long harrowing day! Good night all&thx for keeping me company tonight!xoxo
Too bad Kate couldn’t enjoy the company of her eight children who were in the house the entire time she was tweeting away to strangers.
AUSTRALIA “BUSINESS” TRIP
In November of 2011, Kate and bodyguard Steve Neild flew halfway around the world to Australia for Steve Irwin Day where Kate was taking part in a charity auction to raise money for the Australia Zoo. One of the items being auctioned off was a luncheon with Kate. I will refrain from commenting about that amazing prize and instead wonder aloud how Kate somehow equates this luxurious trip and time away from her children as “working.” Here’s Kate getting just a bit defensive with a tweetie:
RT
It’s always all about you, isn’t it Kate?
NOPE.ALL ABOUT MY KIDS & BEING THEIR MOM! IF IT LOOKS LIKE@ME, LOOK AGAIN!
First, how was being away from her children, all about her kids? Next, h
ow it “looked” was that Kate was given a free trip to Australia for herself and Steve, where she got to spend even more time away from her children, for no reason that was of benefit to them. How it also looked is that, once again, when she was away from her children, she went on several days of Twitter silence. Quite the opposite of the hours-long “Twitter Parties” she hosts while her children are with her in the house. Here is a tweet about the trip:
GM from sunny and warm Aus!!I am looking forward 2 Steve Irwin Day tomorrow! Always amazed by the beauty of this, my 2
nd
favorite country!:)
And here are some tweets with Kate setting the record straight about the trip:
Sick of all the fables &fairytales..Don’t believe wut u read! Sick how tabloids prey on ppl esp moms trying2support their kids! Move on ppl

Who did have the kids while u were on vaca if not their dad
first off, I wasn’t on vacation lol, and second, my babysitter, as usual when I travel…
When Kate says “my babysitter, as usual,” what she means is a high school/college-age girl she has hired to be her babysitter du jour. After Kate fired Judy, the kids’ wonderful nanny, there was no consistent babysitter in the Gosselin kids’ lives. Kate’s eight young children were left with new strangers on a regular basis while she traveled the world with a married man.
IN SICKNESS AND IN TWEETS
This is an example of how Kate tweeted non-stop to strangers, including “haters” and possible pedophiles, while she should have been taking care of her sick children. This reminds me of the epic
Kate Plus Ei8ht
“Gosselin vomit fest.” Nothing has changed since then. Throughout this entire Twitter saga where Kate gave a play-by-play of her sick children vomiting, she never once tweeted anything sympathetic or caring or loving towards her children. She didn’t tweet one kind or compassionate word. It was only me, me, me, me, me, I’m exhausted!
Got a ‘no thank u’ @ dinnerx from a child..knew all 2 soon what that meant..Yep, tis the season2clean up vomit!If it hits all, wish me luck!
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 Lol do u still have the yellow basins?? :)
we do but my babysitter misplaced them so I’m trying to find them… Not good!
Kate is the “most organized person on the planet,” but she can’t find her yellow basins for when her kids are sick? And then she has the nerve to blame the babysitter.
The mass tweeting about vomit had only just begun. This is just part of it:
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 What did U feed this child 2day? LOL 4 times! U sure he/she hasn’t been outside grazing? Mine used 2 eat dandelions! 4real!
nothing unusual. Has a temp now…
I know but I’m bracing myself! Not to give a play by play but we are up to 3X’s by now… Ugh. I’ll be up all night!
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8
Let’s hope we don’t do the vomeria fest X 8 for sure! One child is enuf…one adult is enuf…ask my hubby! LOL.
Oh make that four times…. (Vomit)
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 Oh no…same child…or 3 different ones! Put them out there w/Shoka! LOL
same child- one so far…
nope no L rm floor- its further away here, so wouldn’t help!But standard is comfy bed on the floor – all washable,near mom!
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 Well….this makes 4 great advertisement 4 eligible bachelors! Guys r thinking…vomit..one kid 4 times…8 kids 32 times LOL!
and then it starts all over again! Yay!
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 I’m cleaming up vomit too – 9 year old vomited in the car and I’ve been told it’s in my hair (she sits behind me)! YUCK!.
oh ewwwww and I thought a bed and pj change was bad!
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 Me thinks Kate is in clean-up mode again! Hope it doesn’t get her sick as well! Not good 4mommy 2b sick!
oh no! I will it away…
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 I hate it when everyone is vomiting, and staying up all night, urgghhh nasty! That’s REAL talk from a REAL MUM….
uhhuh. It’s the lowest it gets being a mom.. I remember 1 yr Jon stripped as I rinsed chunks&washed..ALL pm long.1after other sick
Child is snoring now. Think I may sign off to get some sleep before next round of vomit! Good night all!
Perhaps Kate should do this in reverse order next time. Take care of the sick children first, then after they’re sleeping peacefully, tweet to the online strangers about every detail of what took place.
Never one to pass up an opportunity to talk about herself and tell everyone how hard she works and how difficult her life is, her tweeting took a turn for the pitiful:
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8
how did you survive the night? How are the kids?
Two are now in the sick bay… And I’m dead exhausted from the events of the night :(
2 down; 6 to go… It’s going to b a fun day here, not! Hopefully they all get it over w at 1X… I’m exhausted from being nurse all night!
This is Kate doing what she does best: making it all about her and making everything seem like such hard work. She forgot to mention the babysitter who was there with her actually taking care of the kids.
Heat is off.. Bundled up and airing out.. Old time trick to ward sickness off
!
I believe fully in it! Fingers crossed…
xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 Good morning kate, I hope u got a little rest last night, did anyone else end up sick? Hope today looks better.;-)
two are sick and I was up all night… Needing gatoraide and goldfish by the truck load here…
Can’t tell u how thankful I am for my friend John who brought Gatorade/goldfish for my slew of sick kids! His momma taught him well!
How is it possible that this one-time nurse and self-anointed most organized person on the planet, who has eight children who could potentially get sick at any time, does not have any Gatorade or goldfish crackers in her house if that is what she gives her children when they are sick?
NURSE
RATCHET
KATE
Kate Gosselin is a registered nurse and she’s been dispensing her own brand of medical advice online for over a year. If she approached nursing the way she approaches everything else in her life, with laziness and disregard for the welfare of others, than I should be very wary of seeking out advice from this person.

xxxxx @Kateplusmy8 Just ran 15 miles in 14 degree windchill & took my 1
st
20 minute ice bath. Wowzers!!!have u done an ice bath post run?
uh… Ice bath? What’s that do?
Not only is Kate a registered nurse, but she also claims to be an accomplished runner. Yet she’s never heard of an ice bath? At the very least, she should have been smart enough to Google it before making herself look stupid. But Kate never thinks before she tweets.
