One more for the road….
As I sit preparing to celebrate the turn of the year I am reminded of all the great moments of 2011. My final season with Kitchen Nightmares, visiting the set for the Muppet movie with my daughters to see my pal Brian, my husband’s,Jevon, voiceover for Long Beach BMW, teaching Meet the Masters in my daughters’ classes, working on Bar Rescue, seeing my cousin’s son graduate from college, another fun Hootenanny, the birth of Bob (aka Audrey) to my very good pal and wonderful set decorator, Jacque, a great holiday in Maui, seeing Edward Scissorhands projected onto the mausoleum at Hollywood Forever Cemetery, braces off two of my kids, an ice hockey mural, a set for Pride FC, friends moving back to the area, Fact or Faked reset – twice, being in a commercial, watching my son represent Canada in MUN, a trip to Nassau with my daughter and brother’s family, a meningitis scare with my daughter, surgery for Jevon, the passing of my good friend’s dad (who was like a second dad to me), my mom in the hospital and out again, a driving permit for my son, preparing for season 2 of Bar Rescue, solar power on our house and the announcement that Extreme Makeover Home Edition is ending.
Now I am contemplating one more for the road with EMHE. A good friend and fellow artist, Sarah Lynn Brown, asked if I would consider doing one more episode with the show. Yes, Sarah, I am considering it. EMHE was an incredible show to work on. To this day I use the skills I perfected in houses on the road both professionally and personally. The message of EMHE is simple – care for others.
If you need a refresher in this simple lesson or you wish to volunteer on a television show that has significantly affected more lives than any other you have two chances left. Tennessee and Texas. They are shooting in early January. It is worth the road trip, the baby sitter, the time off your paid job. It is worth the experience, and hey, if you get there ask for me. I may be volunteering right beside you!
If you are reading this you may wonder how to get involved with the show before it ends. You can www.joinextreme.com
