    room to grow...

    you win the lottery and part of your prize in ONE room of home improvement? which one and what do you do to it.....

    p.s. if you rent-pretend you win a house and are going to improve the space....

    RICHARD!!! I LOVE TRADING SPACES!!! lol

    I would choose my kitchen I think. If not that it would be the basement. Although if I won the lottery I'd move out of this yucky house and buy land in northern Wisconsin and build a house and put a VERY secure fence around it so the dogs could run. Ah the wishful dreams of a dog owner.

    One room???? Screw that! I'd buy my own island, fence it in and create a sanctuary for all the feral cats and animals in kill shelters. Funny you should mention winning the lottery. When I was laying in bed last night I thought about what I'd do if I won. Great minds think alike

    In this house, I would remodel the kitchen.. I don't have a dishwasher.. and I HATE washing dishes by hand!!! But honestly, if I won the lottery, I would buy a car, mortgage a house (if I had a full time job to pay it off), and invest in my retirement with some high interest accounts.

    I like Trading Spaces and While You Were Out.

    For us, it would have to be the main bathroom. We are working on it a little at a time, but it would be nice just to pay someone else to do it.

    I would re do the living room... MAKE IT HUGE... with some walls to section it off into different types of rooms.. one would be mostly glass with some plantation blinds.. this would be Tinky and Jupiter's room since they love to lay in the sun... I would have some really cool cat trees and a cat safe plant garden so they could dig in the dirt and chew on some grass and plants...

    Then one room would be for Eric's entertainment system... his tv and stereo stuff is just too much for our small living room.. and I would make it sound proof so when he watches movies it won't bother me while I am in....

    the other room... a library.. with a big fireplace and a comfy cozy couch and some plants in there too...

    Aww c'mon Rich....

    You know what they say, the 2 most expensive rooms in the house to remodel are the kitchen and the bathroom.

    I would like to finish off the basement (which hubby started several years ago but never finished. ). Of course he would have to throw out a lot of **his**junk first before we could start. I watch Trading Spaces occasionally and have to say that in most of the projects I liked "before" better. But what do I know....

    I love Frank and Vern. I also like Gen. I cannot stand Hildy and Doug gets on my nerves. I usually like the after better, except for Hildy's rooms....she's just a little too far left of center for me.
