Hollywood In My Own Backyard - Literally

This is merlotmom's living room
(see how neat and tidy)

This is merlotmom's kitchen/family room
( also, neat and tidy and note the open floor plan)

This is merlotmom's backyard
(you guessed it, neat and tidy)


Merlotmom keeps her house orderly because it keeps her from writing she takes pride in a presentable home


That is, until Hollywood comes a knockin'
Then merlotmom throws her pride to the wind for a few shekels
(and it only improves her procrastination skillz)


This is merlotmom's living room on crack after Hollywood entered the picture
(pun intended)


This is merlotmom's family room
Notice anything different?
That's right, no open floor plan
Where's the kitchen?
Behind the wall, silly
What wall?
The wall that wasn't there yesterday
The wall that is already gone
Poor wall
It's life was all too brief
Already disposed of in some Hollywood junkyard with other over-the-hill facades


This is merlotmom's backyard
Hollywood style

and her deck


Merlotmom is very glad to have her house back
because now she can get down to some serious writing...
...but first she has some straightening up to do
