April 7th, 2010
After watching the Beach Family episode I was very moved by the words of fan viewer Marc Bennett. I again went to his website and now found that he is selling shirts to benefit the Beach family, for a college fund.
I wanted to give him a little plug.

Jan 23, 2010: What Happened to "Get on the Bus"? and my Trip
RIP "Get on the Bus: with REAL Fans"... I wish I had an answer. I can only suppose that the celebs are getting such good ratings, ABC isn't gonna break the streak on some ugly real people like me... Ty doesn't seem to want to give me one and there is nothing about it on the ABC site. It just sank to the bottom of the ocean it seems. I guess applying and getting my hopes up was a waste of time and postage.
I did go to the set of EMHE in Loris, SC for the final three days (Fri, Sat and Sun) of the build before the family came home, Monday. I got to paint furniture and frames and help with murals for a theme room. I even helped to cut out two of eight cutouts for a particular theme room with a jigsaw. Also with the help of another volunteer painted them before I had to leave Sunday evening. Sorry I really can't go into any details about what I did, or who's theme room it was. I will however say that in the three days I was on set I only seen Johnnie work in the Carpentry/Artworld area, other designers were only sighted momentarily... Best thing about the build was getting to meet Mrs. Rennee Wilson who's house I got to work on three years ago. She was there helping out and many times meeting people that had also helped on her build. A very kind, and humble lady. I was very honored to meet her and give her one of my journals... She and the Suggs', have a fantastic builder in Harry Dill and Clinch Heyward of Sterling Homes... Never met better Southern Gentlemen.

January 11, 2010: Track that Bus!
So I didn't get picked to "Get on the Bus". I did get something just about as good...(this is not a competition) I'll soon be following the Bus to South Carolina to be at the build for the Suggs Family. Get some pictures, autographs and Do some work. Watch out for the Artist in the Green Helmet. I come with gifts!

November 9, 2009: Turtle Crazy - Work In Progress
I have been working on "theming out" my room for the past couple years off and on. Wanted to share a couple pics of the custom Turtle bed I have carved, before I stain it and add the little copper turtles climbing up the posts.

October 24, 2009: EMHE "Get on the Bus" volunteer campaign
I have been asking for it and they are finally gonna do something to recognize the hard core fans of the show. I'm talking about the kind of fans that will travel hours out of their way and take days off work to get to volunteer on a build. The thing is, many of the 'Loyal fans' who I know are also from families that have been nominated, and although their family was not selected, they choose to volunteer and help out on some other families dream because they have really huge hearts.
The deadline to Apply for the 'Get on the Bus' is Nov. 20th. However, I believe the first 'Get on the Bus bus' build will be on Nov. 11th, here in North Carolina. The Application lists 7 potential dates, you select dates you would be available to travel to the undisclosed locations. I include the Official info for those interested in applying. Good Luck!

June 4, 2009: This may only be rumor but Extreme Makeover Home Edition's Season 7 theme is "the lucky ones".
"summertime volunteering for those with time and services to lend spreading a message of community to pay it forward until the end". I like it!
I had dreamed up a variation where a they do dual builds and the families go and help out on the build of the other family. Also with the Jokers Updates message boards... many families have made the statement that if someone else is chosen from the board, they would love to go and work on their home. We have become a tight little community of friends in the past few years. In the past two I have become more confident about working with power tools and building furniture for family and friends, as well as making repairs to the house.... Just recently repaired the tile in the hall bath over the tub. The more daunting tasks of replacing the floors and repainting the house still await me. Yeah! But should the show select one or two... or more of my friends. I want to be ready to pitch in and go help.

Jan. 11th 2009:
They are airing the Grys family Episode tonight! I am very excited for them and eager to see how much the show changed their lives.... Dreams can and do come true.
I've been praying and hoping that the show is able to help my friends and their families in Georgia and Minnesota.

BIGGEST NEWS SO FAR.
One Dream come True. A family I know through Jokers Updates.com and have listed on my Fan nominations page was chosen to get an Extreme Makeover.
The Grys family of Pekin, IL was woke up Tues, Oct 21. Their youngest son, Jake was the reason for the visit. But besides Jake's disabilities the family is full of heroes. The parents, Steve and Jean have been foster parents for more than 25 years while raising biological and adopted children. When Jake came along, they immediatly took him in. Jake suffers from dwarfism as a result of his Osteogenisis Imperfecta ("brittle bone disease") which keep his bones from growing in the normal fashion, making him stay small.
I am very glad that soon Jake will have a home that he can move around in and be self reliant.

HUGE NEWS!! I should have posted this earlier.
On May 20th, 2008 Episode of EMHE a journal that I had make for Paige was seen in a shot.
I was lucky to get to help out the TV show Extreme Makeover over a year ago on a house they built in nearby Longs, SC. There I gave several of my handmade journals away. One to the Lead Muralist Nancy Hadley, two to Preston for 10 year old Hakeem who was getting a book room and one to designer/Capenter, Paige Hemmis.
I thought the pink was so her. She constantly wears pink on the show. Well my friends spotted my journal in a scene... I must have been out of the room.
Someone even captured a little clip of the scene for me... I'm floored.
video of Paige and journal
