I look forward to painting and papering my way through it, making every little nook and cranny mine, all mine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707196156627348174.post-52310595723476557452012-05-20T04:43:53.203-04:002012-05-20T04:43:53.203-04:00OH I AM SO WITH YOU ON THIS..ME TOO!!!!!! did you ...OH I AM SO WITH YOU ON THIS..ME TOO!!!!!! did you see the one..LOLOL i know you did, the doctor and his wife, she had long red hair and these adorable children and i so CAN"t believe they came from her body and they bought that gorgeous house in Tahiti!

The current housing market brings the entrepreneur out of me. If I was younger, I would be all in the rental business again...Darlene ~Bloggity Blogger~https://www.blogger.com/profile/08202901408911879517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707196156627348174.post-14319312747693322492012-05-17T23:47:12.015-04:002012-05-17T23:47:12.015-04:00Okay, I have seen a couple of those shows (read co...Okay, I have seen a couple of those shows (read couple hundred) and I admit to wanting to reach through the screen and pop a couple people (read many). I do love how none of these opulent homes are quite "move in" ready! Ha! I'm pretty darned happy with my little piece of earth and my humble 1000 square foot ranch. It's everything I need and more than I want to clean some days!

After all--you should be sailing your ship and thinking about the next load of booty but NOOOO!! Here you are indulging in a show for land-lubbers. Shiver-me-timbers!! <br /><br />LMAO!! (Okay--enough kidding around!!) <br /><br />Actually-- I enjoy the House Hunter shows too :) I just love seeing all the various layouts of the houses and try to get ideas while watching for improving my own!! <br /><br />Cheers, Jenn.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559573562599754752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707196156627348174.post-27630847526423574072012-05-16T23:01:08.977-04:002012-05-16T23:01:08.977-04:00Definitely, large closets are a must have.

Some of the crabbiest people are not just young, there are some businessmen looking for vacation homes that I just want to slap sometimes.

And my living room isn't the size of their master bedrooms and I don't like stainless steel appliances (remind me too much of the institutional kitchen when I had my first job) and I don't want granite.

Yes, I love the 20 something couples who feel every kitchen they see needs "updating." and yes, the bedrooms are never large enough! So American! Though with this economy maybe well all start realizing smaller might be more savvy.Sandra Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13191775335774130719noreply@blogger.com
