OF all the goofs, I mis stated the network of my favorite show, Yardcrasher. I said it was HGTV. It is actually DIY- Do It Yourself Network.
I thought i would list the shows by network, as i have some favs on each.
soooo....DIY:
Yardcrashers- Bath Crashers-This Old House-and Turf Wars. I could brag that i come from a town where Clinton, Romney, McCain, Huntsman, and Pres Obama have visited...we have had the Main Street closed for the USC Marching Band. We have Paris, Jen, Brad, Sly, and Snoop Dawg cruise the town, and my daughter skied with the FBI when White House families were in town..HOWEVER, my favorite claim, is that a family friend was randomly chosen in California to be on Turf Wars with Ahmed....It was on at 11 pm and no one was up that i could call. Even his Mom told me, "What is Turf Wars? Who Watches Turf Wars"? I told her," I do! I do"!!
They lost, but still won a beautiful backyard makeover to relax and enjoy a pergola and new gardens....V cool!
HGTV- Home and Garden TV...
Curb Appeal; After the crew finishes your front yard, your neighbors are instantly pressured to spend money to keep up!
Holmes on Homes; ( Jess' fav)...a big guy in coveralls redoes your construction after a previous contractor goofed it all up.
House Hunters International- like a travel show for me....i get to vote, Will they choose Villa #1,..... the City High rise #2,...... or the Beach Cottage #3, ......for 1.2 mill?
and the Late Night Special... Design Star, where are own Color Splash host, David Bromstead, won his own show!
I cannot let this opportunity pass and not include, Style Network....Clean House!!! Nicey, Trish, Matt, and Mark redo the filthiest homes in the nation, in less than 48 hours!!!
I always, clean, vacuum, and sort after watching these 'moronathans' late at night. So that is why they are therapeutic!
Confession; I was busted twice this week while trespassing in yards!!! The first time I was with my niece and her daughter. We had the corgis, so we used them as our front...but we explained that we just wanted to see their lovely rock garden!!! It was truely lovely. He was polite and we told him we would quietly leave...no worries!!
The second bust was with Jess, last night!! We were walking K2's hood, and saw some great homes, then this one icky one with wierd lights and 4th of July decorations. We were looking at the lights wrapped in pipes, and the owner came out to say Hello. He was so proud of his clever props, and wanted to visit. I felt very sheepish, as he was sooo friendly and wanted some company.
I am learning many lessons about people while i am being nosey and picky about yards..
