Good afternoon. Have I mentioned lately how well we are sleeping on our new mattress? I’m still amazed. Anyway, I was up at 7:30 and watched a show called “Good Bones.” It’s slightly more realistic than “Property Brothers” and Chip/Joanna Gaines’ show. For one thing, ‘good bones’ takes properties in very rundown condition within walking distance to the downtown shops and rebuilds them. This show is not about updating reasonable homes to currents design trends! And the “good bones” properties are often bought for $20,000. The other thing is you see a crew working alongside the show hosts, two women. Nobody can do these massive renovations in a matter of a few weeks. And, being a former realtor, sweat equity is a very good thing. TV “reality” has new buyers paying $100,000 and much more to designers and trades people to update often perfectly decent homes. But, it’s feel-good TV, and I do enjoy watching. š But hey, reuse where possible, donate and recycle ♻️!
So most of my morning was spent on the telephone trying to get an eye doctor’s bill corrected to our insurance company statement. In other words, we were overbilled. Three different folks tried ... but it’ll take 2 weeks for an answer from insurance. Whatever.
Mark spent several hours working at the project house.
More drywall was removed from the kitchen ... it’ll be an open concept.
A bedroom wall is also coming down to enlarge the master suite. Bit by bit ... Marky-Mark will be arriving to work on the project in July for a week! Hopefully Lani will be here too.
Randy and Dawn had a great time at the dinner show last night. The food was good ... prime rib for Dawn, Cornish game hen for Randy. Dawn’s working this weekend but we’ll plan to see them Sunday night.
Whew , what a big job. I'm happy now that I didn't get that house.
ReplyDeleteMark Mark is luck to have Mark there as the General.
