I have to ghettivo it because I don&#8217;t watch tv on Sunday&#8217;s, hang-over day. But I love it! I really appreciate how you have such a diverse group of people doing such a great job to someone&#8217;s ugly home. That gay guy makes me laugh. And the girl, the pink lover, she&#8217;s great with the power tools. Oh and that guy that cries a lot. Just seeing him cry makes me cry! What powerful imagery.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhoo, I was hoping to be picked for a home make-over. I know you choose families who really need a good fixing up. I feel that my home needs it bad. We just moved into it about a month ago and it already needs some work. It was built in September of 2005. That was one of the hottest summers here in Vegas! <\/p>\n<p>We were doing great. We moved in, bought lots of stuff for it and we actually painted some of the rooms. But we don&#8217;t have what you call the painting skills so the trim could use some help. Also, we need help putting up a garage door opener. Well, really we <em>need<\/em> a garage door opener. We haven&#8217;t bought one yet because, well, this is embarrassing. I got laid off from my job of 1.5 years. <\/p>\n<p>The lay-off has been devastating to me, my husband and my dog, Scully. She feels it the most. I&#8217;m home all day yelling at her to clean her crate, stop barking or whatever else she&#8217;s doing to stress me out. But that&#8217;s not the point.<\/p>\n<p>We need help with things like hanging curtains or installing the garage door opener. We were also hoping for a projector and electronic roll-down screen for the living room. We just love watching movies and a projector would be awesome don&#8217;t you think? Also, I was hoping that Tim the host could hook me up with a killer job. You know how he&#8217;s always doing crazy stuff like that. Oh that Tim! <\/p>\n<p>And our backyard could use some work. See here in Vegas, they don&#8217;t put grass in anymore. We have rocks. Scully&#8217;s feet hurt from having to walk on them to tinkle. It&#8217;s really sad. I wonder if we could maybe find her some doggie band-aids. Yeah, those would probably help some. <\/p>\n<p>I do what I can with my Husbands income and the income I get from a place called Unemployment. They are so generous. But Scully was really hoping for a doggie higher education. I&#8217;m afraid it might not happen now. I guess she&#8217;s just going to have to be somewhat obedient and not super obedient. But we will love her any way she is. <\/p>\n<p>So EHM-O, I think we are worthy of your help. Don&#8217;t you? And if you can squeeze it in your busy week at my house, we&#8217;d really like a ceiling fan in the master bedroom. <\/p>\n<p>Thanks Tim, Gay Guy, Pink Power Tool Girl and Cry Baby!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just love to watch your show.
