So, since all the house hub-bub started… I’ve been hooked on HGTV. Have you ever watched that network, people? It’s awesome. First-home buyers, 4th-home buyers, renovators, odd-home owners (not to be confused with odd homeowners), DIY stuff, designing to sell… it’s all there. One channel. One glorious place. It’s battling the Food Network hardcore for my love right now.
I don’t want to turn HGTV off — it prohibits me from getting sleep Sunday nights before work. Eric thinks I’m nuts — hell, all those renovation shows make him sweaty — so, we turn the channel.
I mean, who knew neckties are decoration? Or purple is a good shade that goes with gray? Or that you can make a set of monster desk shelves for under a hundred bucks?!
I’m just hoping once we move and get settled, I can actually execute some of the ideas I’ve seen. Good thing I wasn’t taking notes. Damn.

Oh yeah, Matt and I were also obsessed with the Shorewest channel when we were house hunting. All they have are house pictures that they scroll through on tv. And there is a recorded voice telling you about the listing. I think it’s in the 100s. 137? 141? Anyway, sure you can just go on the website and find the houses that way. But it was fun to sit there on a Sunday morning and laugh at all the pictures.
