Property values are a hard reality to deal with. I can get a really cute home on a pretty large lot in riverside for half the price or what goes on in the areas i would want. Long beach is the closest to good pricing for me and even that is higher than riverside and often a postage sized plot of land. Super frustrating. And i have no desire to ( Read more... )

It was. Double estate sale day!

Th original estate sale that i planned was a beautiful spanish style house that made my heart happy. If i could steal a building i would have stolen that one. Walked into a open area space where the stair cases are. And there was an arch to die for. They had fantastic outdoor space. The porch part was covered and ( Read more... )

I really do enjoy home rehab shows. Rehab Addict is one of my favorite. The host lady does a good job of showin you the house and each episode focuses on one or two rooms generally. A great plus with her is that she's calm. I'm noticing a trend with the shows hosted by men. They all are continually angry, frustrated, and yelling at some one. Right ( Read more... )

This is the most complicated and confusing first week of a school I've ever had.  So many classes canceled and moved around.  It's really hectic.  Plus I don't have all  my books yet.  Which adds extra strangeness, as I can't even do some of the reading requirements.  Not off to a great start. I lead a group activity this friday with the other ( Read more... )

The house I had been working on with my Mom is apparently finished.  And there's even some interest already.  A woman stopped by today and asked for an application.  She's married and has four children.  Kind of alot of people to stick in the house even if it is a 4 bedroom.  One of those bedrooms is really small.  But, whatever it is it's good, as ( Read more... )

I love me some architecture.  It's one of those things that I think I could have gotten into, if I hadn't sutck to my acting guns. This house gives me tingles it's so cool.

now I'm going to check out the designer's site to look for some more pictures.  There's a general lack of interior pictures on that first site and I think that there ( Read more... )

I watched Mirror Mask today. The version that was online is lacking the visual power that I think was there seeing as it came from Gaiman and there were so many WIDE shots. I might have to re watch it to properly get the visuals. The story thought wasn't super interesting. I never feared for the girls life nor was I interested in wether or not she ( Read more... )
