  1. There is an Abbey Glen Park in Edmonton, Alberta and there are Abbey Glen Pet Memorial Parks in Pennsylvania & New Jersey. Though it would be odd to name your puppy after its final resting place.
  2. But she went back to looking smug when she saw a second glass of whisky on the bar and probably recognized it as Adam's favourite brand, since Mom preferred vodka and Faith likes tequila.
  3. I feel the same way, and on many occasions have figured out what country/province/township someone moved to by following their older married siblings, cousins or neighbours they grew up with since few people moved across the globe to a place where they knew nobody. And the marriage & birth records of the siblings etc's families provide locations to check census records for the person I'm trying to find. I can trace my surname direct line only back to 1750, but my other three (non-surname) grandparents to the 1500s.
  4. The gym had mats available & probably assumed the clients had enough sense to use them. Methinks Janelle has never done a floor workout there.
  5. To me Kody still sounded like he was done, but Robyn wasn't listening or comprehending.
  6. The premise was to see which team could add the most value to the home. We did learn that bowling alleys, pink basements and Tuscany in Georgia don't add perceived value, but most of us had guessed that already. Above we were suggesting better premises for HGTV to use.
  7. Or have an actual rather than a hypothetical family that choses which house fits their dossier and they like the design & value for money the best, since they are all about the same price. The family & their realtor would be the ones to choose the winner. And they could have quirky families, 3-generation families, working from home families, boho families, etc., not boring families that want a builder-grade grey and white box.
  8. Oh yes, I remember Genevieve's moss wall, slate floor tiles and her constant bare feet, even after she broke a glass or lamp and had shards to contend with. Most renovators are trying to rid the house of rising damp, not add to it. I prefer to wear sturdy shoes or boots when moving heavy furniture & appliances.
  9. I think the two mommies were the second time Hildi did this and they actually said "we hope you don't glue flowers or straw on the walls", which served to egg her on. She only did a sparse coating of straw in their house so you could see more of the walls than straw. The allergic guy got so much straw that you couldn't see the walls beneath it. Can you imagine dusting or cleaning these furry or flowery rooms & bathrooms?
  10. And impractical. What is Hildi Santo-Tomas doing these days? Two of her worst designs involved gluing thick layers of stuff to walls - big red fake flowers all over a bathroom (mildew breeders) and straw all over a family room (the Dad was allergic to straw & the toddlers like to put everything in their mouths). I think the "builder" on this episode of RtB intentionally built badly laid-out kitchens with stupid pony walls so that all of them would have to be ripped out and redesigned. What a waste of materials.
  11. probably a carb or alcohol binge yesterday
  12. Black people don't like masters either. So realtors now call the rooms "owner's suites" or "bedroom #1".
  13. That's what I thought too. I don't want anyone to clamp their hands over my mouth or touch me without my permission (though I can understand why Clay would want to shut her up). He was trying to seem friendly & playful, but that works only with very close friends. Then Rosie stepped in where she should have kept her mouth shut.
  14. How many other guests turned the page to see HLG Jr's photo? I remember one other but cannot remember who.
  15. Sounds like something Whoopi would say.

    As a kid I got a lot of earaches and heartily agree! What kind of post-natal advice is she getting?
  17. The worst scenes were when Ysabel's curvature was increasing and Kootie implied it was all her fault for not doing enough exercises, even though the doctor said that the plumbing pipes could only slow, not stop the progression.
  18. At least the elk are alive in that artwork, not on the ground being prepared for dinner.
  19. Kody must be pretty bad in bed if phone sex with imaginary "Sam" and a banana is better.
  20. Even cats can be found mocking Kootie https://sputniknews.com/videoclub/201811301070272147-cat-crunches-six-pack/
  21. Except for the cars constantly streaming by on the road. I've never been a fan of vessel sinks. Sure they can be pretty, but most are awkward to use. They are harder to clean around and usually too high so adults have to hunch their shoulders to wash their hands in them. I'm also a klutz and can image breaking a water glass when trying to fill it by accidentally whacking it on the edge of the vessel. If I found a pretty vessel, I'd prefer to put soap or towels in it and get an undermount sink. Only once on these decorating shows have I seen someone undermount a vessel sink at the proper height for adults & kids. N&J's looked more like a baptismal font.
  22. Neither is "laser-focused" ... as she gazes at the ceiling searching for words to complete whatever sentence she has zoned out in the midst of.
  23. It was a week devoid of spikes, nails and ox shoes, but they did find a piece of forged iron with a square nail hole in Dan Blankenship's basement - a piece that he had collected and labelled in 1970. LOL.
  24. Kootie waited 14 days from when Mariah arrived to visit Meri's house, yet Meri had been to Parowan and back less than a week prior to his visit, bringing Bonnie into her home. Kootie's Covid protocol made no sense. Part of me was wondering if Gwen got the car stuck just to see if Daddy Dearest would show up. Have these people never heard of tow truck companies? You don't need to buy your own or worry about the neighbours thinking you are unmanly. I was expecting the towed vehicle to slam into Kootie's.
