We had that show tivo'd from back when they filmed so we'd be sure to catch it. My favorite part of the whole thing was how the host guy practically cheered heather for firing the nail gun "You Did It!" As though she would be SO AMAZED that she could handle a power tool all by her lil ole self. Shucks little lady. Intentional or no, heather did a great job of being subtly smug. Beth and i laughed all the way through it knowing how many HUGE projects y'all took on with no one chirping "You did it!" with every flip of a power switch. Your screen door looks great by the way. Rock on you two!! DUDES! we totally saw y’all. We had that show tivo’d from back when they filmed so we’d be sure to catch it.

I was relieved that we didn't come off like total fools! Carol - hi! How have you been? The across the street people were surprisingly quiet and managed to not park their cars in front of our house during the filming. They must have been having an off day. :) That house with the fir trim that you mentioned is located close to us. David and I went over and helped them paint the walls and ceiling for a couple of hours after the first day of filming at their house. It is a gorgeous house. They were really smart about getting materials donated. They got 4 or 5 lighting fixtures from Rejuvenation and the paint donated for giving a mention in the show's credits. David and I weren't that smart...we didn't think of that. Thanks for everyone who watched. I was relieved that we didn’t come off like total fools!

I had two comments: 1) I really like those dormers. I can't believe some people replace them with skylights because they are easier to install. 2) If the camera's were on me, I would've done the door the same way (with tongue and groove). But if the camera guy left the room, I would've whipped out the Biscuit Joiner and done it with wood biscuits. Then I would yell at people who slammed my door. Yeah, I caught most of the show.

I have seen all the episodes of that show (thanks to Tivo) and have found many of their projects to look slightly cheesy. Your door was OK and the fir trim they did in that large house in LA was great. I was appalled by the hollow core "craftsman" front door they made in TN. And also the fix they did on the Atlanta termite damage would have me tearing up the siding after filming stopped to check for more damage. Also, they leave out SO much detail it is embarrassing to watch. Houseblogs are much more deatil-oriented. Your house photographed well on TV (except what do you do about the across the street people?) Carol Hey- your episode was a good one.

I'm so jealous of the door they helped you put in. I'd die to have such a great door. Oddly, my husband and I were just talking today about where we might get a screen door that would be appropriate for our house. Wish we had cable. I've looked at your photos, and let Heather know she looks terrific - not fat at all!! Wow! I’m so jealous of the door they helped you put in. I’d die to have such a great door.

So how did this come about? Did they find you because of the blog, or did you solicit them? I guess I could go back and read an old blog entry, but I'm basically a very lazy person.
