Just got around to pulling this show off of my DVR. I also can relate but only to the extent of wanting something you really couldn’t afford. I had the money for high-end finishes. But now, I wish I had that money back. Yes, smooth stucco is a waste of money- the stuff cracks and you can’t spot-repair it!
There is a certain amount of show-business going on inside this episode. But, it does happen to the best of them.
They aren’t proud people- borrowing $200k from friends/family and living in a friend’s trailer in his back yard?
Wow, I’d just go get a job at Home Depot but keep in mind they had to complete the house on a tight schedule. No time to be dinking around at a job.
