Have you not been watching Sanctuary?

I think the first season of Sanctuary was better, but I still like it.

Back from the interior shoot.....a block off MLK Blvd and 2 blocks from Magnolia.... :uhsure:

House was interesting...besides the fact that it was falling apart.

First floor had a LR, DR, kitchen, eating area, a gutted bath - not even a floor just the joists, 2 other rooms. One of the rooms had some religious bulletins and prayers tacked onto the wall. Both the extra rooms had new brushed stainless doorknobs....without locks.

Second floor had a bath, 3 brs, an extra room off of one bedroom, and stairs to the 3rd floor in one br. Each room had the new doorknobs like downstairs again without locks.

Third floor.....fake stone walls, mirrorred tiles all along one sloped ceiling, a fake stone bar, and a sink in a fake stone bench and shag carpet.  :o :o :o

After hours bar and hooker rooms?  :clueless:

I didn't go into the basement, just kind of angled the camera down and clicked.

I love my job.... :lmao:

Oh deb I bet you do!!!! A hundred years ago (Ahem) I used to work for a mortgage servicing company. I had to process all of the inspection reports along with photos. We did all of the REO's and foreclosures. Man, what a hoot! The things you find in houses......one guy was so pissed about his foreclosure that he gutted the house down to the studs and then put a chainlink fence all the way around it about 6ins from the brick. And all I can say is that people are freaks! And nasty. EWWWW the pictures I've seen!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Yeah.....nasty just doesn't cover it sometimes.

This one had been trashed out already.

I had one years ago with beer bottles.....and used condoms.....all over the place.

I don't clean them up....thank God.

I go in jeans, t-shirt or sweatshirt, and either sneakers or thick-soled flipflops.

I have been known to take my clothes off in the garage and take them straight to the washing machine....just in case any little "critters" jumped on them....

I carry a large container of Purell and paper towels in the car, too....

It was a beautiful Monday in Denton. Spent the long weekend with my girlfriend, got a new tattoo today and now I'm getting ready for school to start tomorrow.

I have been in some that I wish I had one!

You would not believe how some people live....or what some will do to a house they are leaving.

Hey Deb.  You might not want to wear flip flops.  But, then again, you might not be as clumsy as I am either.  Flip Flops are just not an option for me when the safety of my feet is a concern.

I am a prize-winning klutz....really sad. Family and friends make fun of me, because I am just getting worse as I get older. Runnin' Buddy told me at Walmart the other day when I pulled a case of pop down cock-eyed onto my bicep that I was a hazard to myself. No..the top box on the stack was about a foot and a half above my head!!

Anymore, M always goes with me to do interiors....I don't ever do them by myself anymore as other agents have found squatters in houses, there may be animals - I did one that I know had snakes,  :o and some are just not structurally sound.

He's gripes at me every time I wear them, but sometimes....I just have to spray them with 409 and wash off. I have a pair of thick-soled Kenneth Cole's that I've had for at least 5 years (I love them!) that I usually wear. The bottoms are flat, and the insoles are molded...so I can walk in them for a long time. I don't wear the flipflops I get at Walmart.
