Must See TV
Years ago I was really into the television channel Lifetime. They played (and still do) movies for women that were about sad topics. For example a woman that gets beaten by her husband, or a little girl that is molested by her dad, or someone is kidnapped, or someone has anorexia or bulimia. You know, nice, warm, make you cry movies like that. (Yes, I am being sarcastic!) For some reason about ten years ago I was really into them and I know that tons of women and men still are or they wouldn’t keep playing them.
So, I hadn’t watched Lifetime for a good ten years and then I hear of a new show that they are playing called How Clean Is Your House? It came on at 11:00 last night so I taped it and watched it today. After only watching the first five minutes, I stopped the tape and rewound it! I wanted to wait until Kevin and the kids were home to watch it with me. This show is great! These two British ladies went into a house that was disgusting. The home owners had ten cats, two hamsters, and a snake! The litter box was sitting in the living room floor and was so full that one of the cats had pooped next to the wall. The kitchen sink must have had every dish in it and everything was filthy including the refrigerator. On the couple’s bed there was a box (it looked like a shoe box) full of French fries. They also had a half eaten cantaloupe on the bed.
I’ll leave the other surprises for you to see. If you go to their website it will give you times to watch. This episode repeats lots of times; I’m guessing that is because it’s a new show. You don’t want to miss it.

Oh. My. Gosh. They filmed in OUR house. Okay, it's not THAT bad, at least not all those things going on at once. But Howie and I are both dyed in the wool messies and we do have three cats and two dogs in our little 2-bedroom abode. We're talking under 1000 sq' living space. It's not squallor, but you can bet your bottom dollar your tush will come up with hair on it if you sit on the living room furniture.

I didn't watch the show, but they had the ladies on the Early show this morning. The houses that they showed, were awful. I wouldn't want anyone to see my house, if it looked some that the showed.

I know what you mean. If given the choice, I'd rather slap fight with some ex-boyfriend on the Jerry Springer show than be featured in a pigsty of a house.
