Haven’t heard anything about retiring yet. I think part of it is a lot of the pound shops he depended on for tat have gone away. On top of that, after all these years I would guess that he is running out of novel junk from his collection to talk about. He’s also been working on his feature films too, which may be more rewarding to him in the long run than reviewing wonky toys and terrible food.
I’m cool with him slowing down as long as he’s enjoying himself.
Ugh, the whole renovation thing is a pain in the ass. My mom watches renovation shows all day while the house has fallen into smelly disrepair over the last twenty years.
She keeps talking about painting this or knocking out that wall or installing all new fixtures 'so it can be nice for the next people (she’s in her 80s and plans on dying there).
I keep telling her that no matter how much money she wastes ‘fixing’ the place up, the people that eventually buy it are going to gut it and do their own thing.
One little old lady using a total of three rooms in a 4br3b house.
She dreams that I’ll settle down and want a quiet place in the suburbs, but I hate the neighborhood and most of the people that live there. If she were hit by a bus tomorrow I’ll call the first Cash For Houses scam I see so I don’t have to deal with any of that.
