Extreme Home Makeover Tomorrow 5/20

Post by StJohnRuth »

Does someone here have the capability of recording this for me tomorrow night? The family featured spent their week away here and I'd love to have a copy of the show...
Anyone?

That sounds like what I need! Make sure you watch it, these were really really nice people.

Charlie is so high-tech, scheez.

I had this DVD player for two years that we could not figure out how to hook up. I bought it for $50 from this couple who were "Leaving Island". (They have since returned. This happens all the time.) Ron and I each spent about an hour independently trying to get it to work and finally gave up and put it back in the box.
So last summer we let some twenty-something youngsters house-sit for us for a few days who we knew were movie-addicted. We just left all the stuff on the couch and said "Oh, we have a DVD player if you want to watch movies, but it's not hooked up." Bingo, worked fine by the time we got back from our little time-out in Chocolate Hole.

I'm glad YOU have tivo, because even if we had that here we probably wouldn't be able to figure it out anyway. Thanks, Charlie and Mary Beth!

Thanks for the heads up about also about the show. I'll definitely watch it. Dang it, I get weepy every time I watch that show too. Haven't seen it in a while because The Amazing Race was on at the same time.

Ruth, we will be on STJ soon and will definitely be at your store. I'll be sure to say Hi. Do you have those mosquito coil "thingies"?
Going "home" again October 26th!

Ruth,
We'll be arriving next Saturday, but I only have the capability to record on VHS. If that works, I can drop it off next weekend! Just let me know.

Yep, Fellow Crybabies, I'm right there with you.
Thanks for the offers, all, but I'm counting on Charlie and Mary Beth to "tivo drop to dvd" this time. Or whatever he said.

She bought a hoodie in the store (pink or blue, can't remember what color) and a St. John Spice cap like Rick G.'s (also can't remember what color...)
Cool, cool!

I just saw the preview and it was a dark blue sweatshirt with "St. John" written across the chest. It was at the end of the preview. I don't think she was wearing a hat though.

Darn, I am too late on this. I was going to say "I'll tape it and bring it down on Thursday." Guess I'll have to find Dunkin Donuts after all. ;)
