Bordeaux: I loved that table that revolved out into four, and I adored the butterfly print chairs.

Bordeaux: Adrian! 😄 I liked the place they picked. I liked all three apartments, but I have to agree with the tall guy: WTF was up with that bed/bath (and Beyond!) room? That was bizarre! Doggies were cute. What was the attorney going to do? He didn’t look old enough to retire. I assume his hubby will continue being a flight attendant.

Depending on where he placed in a tournament, I assume Miguel would get some prize money.

Lorraine scraping the fork on her teeth drives me nuts. Take a bite, lady! 🙄

Three’s Company in Melbourne: What an odd setup. No doubt Miguel was footing most of the bills since the ladies didn’t seem to land very high paying jobs (barista!). The question is why.

I heard on NPR this morning that one of those volcanoes was erupting and people were being evacuated.

Thanks, doodlebug, for the info.

I have four cats who make the biggest mess eating their dry food so I could really use the Wisp.

Loved the possum. I petted a possum named Ophelia at a nature center, and she was so soft. Sweet natured too.

Why did Max have to have his molars extracted?

Was the program associated with a university? That’s why I kept thinking “I bet you could hire someone cheap to be your housekeeper” when the mom talked about how hard it would be on her to keep the first house clean. The kids were taking surfing/boogie board lessons, I believe.

And white subway tile! How innovative! ?BTW, the HH buzz word de jour I am sick of now is “clean.” I knew they couldn’t do all that reno on a $30K budget.

Elkton, IL: I loved that atrium too. I would be singing “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” from that master bedroom sliding door/pseudo-balcony over the living room all the time! ?

Supposed to be. Husband was an architect and a partner in his firm. That was why he was still in Chicago. Wonder if he was going to retire or was the firm going to open a Dakar (heard Ofeibea Quist-Arcton say “DaKARRR” in my mind every time it was mentioned) branch? The over budget one was my fave, but, after that, the furnished house was my pick. I’m sure she could hire someone to help her keep the place clean. The “precocious” (code for “bratty”) kid grated. The real estate agent was cute.

Australia: Don’t houses in Oz have screens for the doors and windows? The artsy house (loved it) didn’t seem to have any. Screens would mitigate the need for mosquito netting for the bed. Stiges, Spain: Scarf realtor is back!

My boyfriend Dr. Abrams was back! Yay! ? The patient digging into her scalp made me cringe. ? That would be a terrible condition to have. Hey, Will, if a dude has “Do not resuscitate” tattooed in big letters on his chest, I think he means it. I agreed with Natalie (I hate to say that) that the little girl’s organs shouldn’t go to waste.

You know Connie would have gotten her hands on that calendar! I miss Connie. ☹️ Tuesday will become the firehouse dog. What a sweetie.

OMG, yes! I kept saying “Then why did you take a job overseas if you don’t want to immerse yourself in another culture?” Was I the only one distracted by his forehead? It looked as if he had been kicked by a mule.

Stockton, CA: Nice to see a HH who was relatable. She didn’t have a huge budget and wasn’t all “we’ll have to gut the kitchen and knock down that wall.” That was a half-bath in that third house! It was a quarter bath! Seriously, who but a child could use that?

Add me to the “that bedroom set was hideous” list!

“And it’s 5 cents over budget.” ?

Hawaii: Lady, the word you should be using is “continuity” not congruent/congruency. WTF is a monkey pie table? Anyway, they picked the right place because of the beach frontage. I would like to see how the reno turns out.

Morticia was referred to as the “girlfriend” not the wife.

When you are fighting for your life, don’t hit the homicidal person in the head once, hoping he’ll stay out long enough for you to get away. Hit that motherfucker enough times that you know he won’t be getting up! I didn’t want Beck, as dumb as she was, to die. I never did really like Paco. Now I know why. Can’t wait to see what S2 holds.

Okay, the story about the baby lemur made me ??????! No, Dr. Baby-talk, the owners didn’t “do their best.” They bought a pair of primate babies who had been ripped from their mother, took the word of the unscrupulous person who trafficked them as to how to feed them, and were too willfully ignorant to realize that the babies were malnourished. They couldn’t go online to find out what a three month old lemur should look like? I bet they thought it was adorable that those poor creatures stayed so small. ? Bless the lady who brought the poor duck in and was going to keep it.
