squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:about that.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Uhuh
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Ugh.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:No. No.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:five days, every time I go to the basement, I take a snowman figure downstairs.'cause like it's slowly going, it's going away by Frosty. So, clearing that last little piece of, Christmas away. But really I've got all the pots outside and the window boxes and stuff filled full of, mix of, fresh greens and artificial greens from the store and, you know, that kinda stuff. So I gotta get that put away.'cause uh, I feel like that's winter and I, I really am okay till March 1st, but now it's March 1st and I got, okay, it's
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:All right.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:really mostly outside stuff I gotta get put away.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:te Tara still has her winter arrangements adorned in the dining room and foyers, so those will get replaced this weekend with the spring versions.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:arrangements that you had, like, I'm thinking of the one that was in there in the dining room, like it was winter. It
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:you know, that's, that's the good thing about doing some of, you know, some styles looks versus others.'cause it really can last much
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:right.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Um,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:That's it. I think we're all on the same page basically. We're, we're, we're, we're getting ready to clear winter away and start putting spring out. You know, it'll take me really two weeks time. I do a little here, a little there. I, I won. I don't do a Blitz Creek and do it all at one time.'cause I'm, you know, running around with a chicken doing 50 things. But I'll, you know, I'll take one, one snow band down today.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:It's funny you mentioned the outdoor pots.'cause we don't come in our front door at the house. We come in a a different door and this morning, you know, I, we turn the lights off, turn the lights on in the front and I always check to see if, you know Amazon packages or whatever's been delivered. And I just happened to be brushing my teeth this morning and I looked out the front windows or the side lights by the door to look out and I was like, oh. Yeah, I gotta get that pin of Magnolia out of them pots like it's time, it's time.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:It is time.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I'm like, nothing. Nothing yet. I'll just wait.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:yeah, I
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, that's the problem is like, um, you know, we're going to empty the pots out, but I'm really not gonna put anything in'em. Right. Because it's, you know, I'm not going to, I mean, I guess I can go back and put some dirt in it and plant some, uh, pansies and stuff like that. I don't know what you put in it.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh, so
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:with my
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:my front,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:like I'll just take the, the greenery out, but I am gonna go ahead and put my forsythia reef out on my front door'cause I don't know why, but it brings me so much joy. Now y'all know I can't, I don't do a whole lot of color in the house. I, I don't know why. It's just I don't, I don't like so that
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:bright yellow be outside.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:But anything else I add on the inside's gonna be water green, so I kind of do spring and like. phases. Not that I have a ton of bunnies.'cause that's just not my, I mean, if it's a specific look, like we, I got up some black bunnies. I love those little things. They're just, they make, we have some right now in the
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:I was gonna say, we just got some of those in.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:these were from last year, but I loved my little black bunnies and I put'em in the kitchen. They're so cute. Um,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:And you.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh God.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:they're, they're the black color. They're black color. Um. I will start with just, I'll start adding white tulips all over the house just a little by little and some white cent. And just those little, those little kisses of it around start making me feel like, oh, okay. Spring's finally getting here. And then like for me, the next step once we get a little bit closer to middle of March, later, March I, that's when I'll pull out my bunnies. But you know, them bunnies are still in the holes. They ain't coming out
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Right. They're not coming out
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Not that it matters, but
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:because those raccoons don't eat'em right now.'cause they still hungry.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:poor, little hungry raccoons or, uh, well, but if you look, if you need a bunny, if bunny is the only thing that's gonna get you through January 90, eighth,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Put it out.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Bring it out.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I ultimately, there's not a. Well, yes, there are fraud answers. If you have your for Foresee Aath up June I am going to drive through your house one day because there's one particular house that I'm, I'm just gonna get'em. So there are windows, but ultimately if you need to stick your bunny rabbit out two weeks ago, it it,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:It's fine. It's fine.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:matter. fine.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:whatever
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Uh, guess you, it's like the idea of what, what, how do you introduce spring and what do you do first? I gotta get rid of the winter. Right? Kinda got that established and, you know, I, I have the struggle bus of, uh, because I'm, I'm emptying these things out and I'm not putting anything back in for a while, but. You know, I don't know what else to do. Um, I'm not gonna put, for some reason I can do winter greens and do artificial mixing in with some real stuff. But I can't fill these, um, boxes up with fake stuff that we sell. I just can't, I just can't do it on the outside. I just don't think it looks right for me. Some people do.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Um, what you could do, and this, I
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:The
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:this earlier, those big faux ferns that we got in, that's something you could put out now.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:See, I wouldn't do that. I think
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:do that. I think I
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I wouldn't,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:What about those topiaries?
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh yeah. Topiaries.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:It's topiaries. Those boxwood topiaries,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:yeah, I like that.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah, yeah,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:mean,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I could put some dirt around those big urns on the front porch and I really would, you know,'cause I, I'm okay with mixing artificial and reel together. I could do the topiaries and put, you know, um, some pansies around that and that, that could be pretty for a while. Yeah. Okay. Kids. Okay. I
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:yeah, there it is.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Okay.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:have solved spring in 18 minutes.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:And it's still 10 degrees.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah, well there we go. Well, my doors are double doors and so they're mostly glass, so they're kinda weird. So I normally don't, uh, even though I, we sell a thousand door baskets, I normally don't put things on the doors, but, um, I'm thinking if I do this, I might, um, got those pretty greenery, some pretty little bows. I can put some little small res on the bottom part of my doors. Um,'cause they're, they're about 24 inches, or, you know, like that bottom panel on those typical doors. I think that'd become pretty.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah, like big wreath. That's why I
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, you got, you got a, well, you got a door. That makes sense, I think am mine.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I mean, I just think
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:door.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I don't know the way it's kinda sets back in your alcove it, it, it looks like a house that just have a wreath on it.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah. Oh, yeah,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:His front door.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:yeah,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it calls for it. Right.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:And I, I like it. I like a big,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:There you go.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I, there ain't nothing. Listen, this is my personal heart. Heart. If y'all listening out there.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:you do, and I realize that budgets look every, look, everybody got a checkbook, everybody got a balance, right? You gotta, you gotta, you gotta do what you gotta do. But please, for the love of all good and Dolly Parton, do not put a 12 or 14 inch feet on your front door is meant for that.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:That's a candle ring.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:The size of a dinner plate. Kids just, yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Just don't it, men. I mean, absolute minimum real in my mind is really 20, 24 inches is really what it should be. We'll start with an 18 inch re wreath base, and then you add on it and it makes it wider or something. You know, that's okay. But look, these little baby, oh Lord, just don't, I always tell my clients there's three ways to do everything right way. The half-assed and the why bother. And for me, that's a why bother?'cause it's just, it's just sad. It's just sad.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:You'd rather have nothing.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I'd rather have nothing. And
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:That's I'm okay.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:which, uh, we're taking all the greenery and stuff out and them being empty because I, you know, Dwayne, I think you said even like if you can just clean it and just get it like this, like a surface, if you can just clean it and get it empty, like you're okay with that, just to sit with
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Right.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I'm fine to empty them little things and have it just be dirt. I'll look at my dirt, it's fine. And then I'll be ready to put ferns in soon. But I'm a new, I'm new to the Pansy. We don't have them, uh, currently,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:You are not new to the Pan Sea.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:that strikes me
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hmm
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:ironic. There you go.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Not new to the Pan Sea.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:okay. Okay. Fair statement. Fair

jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:were, we put pansies in the pods and, uh, you know, they were, they were beautiful with the pumpkins and stuff for fall. And then when we went out last spring to go put new stuff out, then pansies were still there. They were still just kicking.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah, they're hardy.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:a good investment, Lord.'cause you can put'em out in fall and get it, keep'em through spring. I said, oh

stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:spring at Terror is whatever Jesus says comes out to the ground, so, and it's, and it's amazing.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:have anybody that lived on the property, like a, an older garden or woman or something that went and just planted things? Was that, is that her joy that she brought to the property?
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh, there was no joy before. So.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:we go.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Uh, but there are daffodils. There are irises, there's cl, there's, uh, I forget what this one thing is called. I call it the stinky plant because it is over, it's actually over next to our septic tank clean out, and it, it's one stock. And it blooms for like one week and it opens and it smells horrible, but it is beautiful. It's real dark purple.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I say, we call it the poo poo plant.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:It, well, it might be the poo plant and then it, then it just closes up and goes away. So I don't know what it's called, but it's pretty cool.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I love the look of daffodils. My mama loved them, she wanted them everywhere. um, like the look of them, but I don't like flowers that come from a bulb it's a one shot thing. Right. And then they, and then it's messy. And I know it sounds ridiculous and just. Totally OCDI can do them if they're, if, if they're in a container
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Uh,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:them'cause it's rip'em out.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:well.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:gonna stay in the ground and they're just gonna keep multiplying, Lord, I can't do it. It's just a mess.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, I don't know how some of the daffodils got in the yard where they got, they'd be like right in the middle. All of a sudden five daffodils pop up. I'm like, how'd they even get over here? And for a long time, I just circle around them. When I mow now I just mow'em right on over and then they just come on back. So I guess the squirrels dug them up from somewhere and buried'em somewhere else thinking they're pretty, I don't know, but.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:I need to know.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:if your arch nemesis in life are squirrels. I short of dropping an atomic bomb on my house. I have thought of every other way to kill these things. I, have just, they destroyed my mulch. have chewed through our uplighting out outside, they have chewed through the wires three times. I realize these are first world problems, but every time I see one, I just wanna drop, kick it.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, I could, I don't have problems in my house. Um, because you're an old house with trees very close to you. I don't have a problem. But I will say to you, if they're in, in the road and they kind of look up like
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh my God.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:and they're going, I will gun it and I will run. Over Ricky every time. Oh no. Look, rodents with a tail. They are rodents. They're just rats with a tail. I will kill them.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:when I was in college, I can't remember if I've told you all this story, but when I was in college, there was down where the building was, where most of my classes were. There was a street that went through the campus and it was really pretty, it was tree lined and there were lots of squirrels and they were not,'cause they, they were surrounded by college kids all the time. They were not scared. Like they, they were like dry me, right. And they were just everywhere all the time. And so you'd just be like, oh, just aggravated. Well, I had driven through the campus for four years. the, to the building, to that area. Never had a problem. And then I, I,'cause you always saw'em dead, like somebody would hit'em in the street. And I thought, I've never done it. I'm, I, I, this is good. I've never seen one. There was one day I was driving through, I hit one, I went, oh, 15 seconds. I hit another one. It was like home, home. I was like, oh, I got my quota. It was a sad day. You know,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:It's okay,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:nobody. They weren't hurting mulch, they weren't destroying lighting on a house. Not like my bitches. Oh,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:God.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:You said Stuart, that like when you were living on sixth Street, they did damage to your house at the sixth street or
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh God. They loved that house. I think it was the demons. They were every, like I would look out my bedroom window. We had these triangle windows'cause it was up on the third level and they'd just be like stuck on the screen, staring in at you.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:everybody can see his face and his right now.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:I like, you'd flick the screen to try to get'em to move, and they're like, mm-hmm I'm staying right here.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I'm watching you.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:I know.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hello.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:And then they got in one of the chimneys, which we had all the chimneys capped at some point. But right before that, there was an old stove, you know, that came into the house that was taken out long ago, and I kept hearing this. I'm like, what the hell? So I cut the paint line around it and I pulled this cap off and there she was with all her babies. Just having a party up in this little, I was like, oh my, I just put the cap back on real slow and then they came back out to the screen to look at me. So, yeah, they were a mess over there. They chewed the air conditioner line. They tore the rubber roof off. Part of, I mean, it's horrible.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Vicious little things.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:are.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:What was it? She, somebody got a, a new Toyota, uh, tundra and uh, and they ate through the wires of his truck.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Who did
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:That's, well, I don't remember his name now. I just remember he got, he got a new, uh, I remember it was a, a Toyota truck Tundra for some reason. uh, he had it and then the squirrels ate through the wires. Uh,'cause he couldn't
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Wow.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:car wouldn't, or truck wouldn't run. Uh, so that's why I have no problem driving them over. I just don't, there you go. Okay. So we fixed
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Okay,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I'm walking in the front door. What are we doing
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:after we've killed all the squirrels and have carnage in your driveway, look at the pretty pots at the front door.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Oh my gosh, that's so funny. Well, I have the luxury of having that big old urn thing that I would switch out for seasonal things. And it does make it easy. I have this urn that's got, you know, from years past typical greenery of ivy and Magnolia stems and sticks in it. That always stays. And then I'll put Holly and Evergreens in it and, uh, for Christmas and winter. Uh, so that'll come out. Uh, and I'll leave the greenery in there and I'll start sticking in some of our, uh. White tulips and. Pink, um, dogwood that we sell, that we've been selling for a thousand years. I, you know, I probably bought'em 20 years ago. At this point, we sell the same stuff'cause it's classy
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I'll feel that earn up. I'll probably, that's the first thing I'll do with my front door is'cause I really, because the thing is if you can get to the front door, you don't see the rest of the nasty house, you can least see that flower arrangement. They're like, oh, they bougie in there. They ready? So basically taking our flowers and doing one, not 20 kids. You don't, you don't need 20 of our flower arrangements in your house, I don't think. But, uh, a few good ones, but that's enough. So I'm gonna do one real good one at the foyer.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah. We've got, they're in the living room, which if somebody comes through, they, we've got the big four safety, the wreath on the front door, and then if they come into the living room. There's a brass container that, or it's a brass finished container that's in there that we change out. And like right now I have those green budding branches. The, uh, the ones have the little berries on them that
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:death and just use'em all. You can use them all year long. But I just, I love them'cause I just add a little bit of color and, uh,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:it makes me happy.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:well, no, nobody comes in our front door. Everybody comes to the kitchen so that you're gonna see something on the island. I. Because that's gonna be your presentation. And then we will pour your drink and then you can walk to the front door while you're sipping your, sipping your beverage to see what's at the front door table. Because there's the beautiful,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I mean it's
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:got the foyer where people should come in through the
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:I know. And I wish people would come to the front door and No,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:that? You
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:you put a gate over on the side.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:You can't get over here. Front door only.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Put, pour a parking pad at the front door. Put a circle driveway. That's why we they use, uh, my pea,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:You know, that is the third time a circle driveway has been brought up for my house.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, that's
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Jeremy mentioned it last year. This, Jeremy mentioned it last year, and you just mentioned it again.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:you know, they go where the, where there's a park, then they park on the side door and then there's that, that,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:You've got the property and we know you, rich, just put it in. Rich
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:But
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:his first dollar.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:I do. It's hidden. Somewhere
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:the squirrels will find it.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:they will.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:You know, we can't do a parking pad. I've look,'cause I think park, I love those little parking pads, like the real classic, like little southern little
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:we can't do'em in our neighborhood, so whatever.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah. Well that's why you live in a poor neighborhood.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh my Lord.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:By no means
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah. Well, look, I think when he moved there, he was marginal. Now that, Lord, you couldn't, he couldn't
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:a bougie now,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Isn't that crazy? That's just crazy.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, there's nowhere. There was nowhere else with cool houses to buy and some people had to die so other people could come in.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I will tell you that is one of the sad things. Every month we get
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:our little newsletter and um, you know, they put, you know, there's like 450
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Okay.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:around there between four and 500 homes in our, uh,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Is there that many houses back there?
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:crazy. In
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:No way.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:there was that many here, but there are.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Huh?
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:And um, um, they always have like our de recently departed neighbors and I'm like, oh, this is so sad.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Now listen, those 10 new houses in the back right corner, don't count
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, I mean,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:some. Somebody sold their front yard and put 10 houses in there.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:but yeah,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:do have a lot of younger families moving in, which is good because you like, you know, it keeps it young and I mean, there's a good mix, right? So, I mean, there's a lot of wonderful things we love about our neighborhood and that's one of'em that it's a great mix of
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Shout out to.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hey, Kathy.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hey.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:She's on the other end. Mm-hmm.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:walks by, usually she'll walk by while we're recording the podcast. I haven't seen her this morning,\
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:What's our next thing? What else are we doing in this house?
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, I, the
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:only.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:So what I'm trying to decide if I'm gonna do, so, we do an arrangement in the kitchen, which, if you'll remember, I posted a video on Instagram last year when I was taking my Christmas arrangement down on St. Patrick's Day. Um, because I was, I think it was St. Patrick's Day, or it was tax day, I can't remember.. And, I'll do something there. But again, we're not, I'm not overly. Fussy when it comes, like everything. So it's usually pretty simple, figure out what I wanna do there. But the other thing that I'm really struggling with in our sunroom in the back, we've got French doors that look out, uh, into the backyard. And for fall and for Christmas, we had. I did one wreath on either door, and now I've gotten used to them being there, and I kind of like it.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:like, do I put a wreath there for spring? Because it just feels dainty. It just feels pri. not, it's not me. So that's why I'm like, I don't think I'm want to do it, then I'm like, well, I like something being there. I don't know. That's the one I'm not, I'm not for sure about at all.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I would've said nothing.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:It feels like for fall and winter, it's almost like you wanna layer on stuff. You want it warmer or you want it fuller, you want it more.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:in the spring it's like you're opening the draperies and you're kind. It's like, no, I, I want, I don't want anything to, I don't wanna have to look through anything to see the outside. I wanna see
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:the terraces and your pansies. And so I would've voted no.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:the, uh, normally that's where,'cause I'd rather just see out. Right.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Alright.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:then I'm like, oh. And so the thing that kind of got me were those white dogwood wreaths that we have at the store. I think those are
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:And I was like,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:then I'm saying, okay, that's still a little from my personal style, a little foofy. So,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:but it still
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:it makes me happy. So I,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, they are good. They are good though, that that's as soon as you said that I went Well, if you want, if you wanna be a little fussier this year, those, that's a fussiness. But they're good.'cause those are good.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah, those are beautiful. Besides from that, it's just white ants, white mascar, and white tulips. Wherever I can, little tuck, I can tuck'em.'cause it just feels like they're real. I love those.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, those crazy flat bunny rabbits with the long ears, with the little cottontails.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I've got, I've got now I don't even have a full set of them. You know, this is one we sold'em years ago and we kept selling them out, so quick. I actually, one of the two that I have is actually, uh, broken. It's broken ears, and I glued it back on. I was like, well,'cause we sold'em all and somebody wanted one of them. And I was like, okay, I'll, I'll bring my back. You know, like Stewart
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Uh
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I sold his Christmas tree of his house for four years.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:and sold my rabbit and took the one at home with the broken ears and glued it back together. Well, now I can't throw it away because it's part of the family. And it was like, everybody's like, well, is everything in your house broken? Well, you know, I
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:You
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Loves the

We got, we have, um, open bookshelves in the kitchen and um, right now we've got a full blue and white porcelain, but she has a beautiful collection of that. uh, I call it Metallica. Is it Little Green Cabbage Dishes? What is that, Metallica? Is that what that is?
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Anyway, you know, it's, it's not nothing expensive. I mean, there's a. A good piece or.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:rip off of the real stuff.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Right. Right. And there is, there is one, she does have one or two good pretty pieces. Uh, and we drag all that out this year and put it up there with the rabbits and stuff we'll see. But I really could leave what's there in the, the bluemont porcelain and just put the thery stuff kind of peppered in there and, and then, take a lid off one of the blue VAEs and just has some I'll, I'll do color. We do more color, so I'll do pink. Uh. Quince or what's like what's with the, one of the pink flowers with the branchy? Something we said
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah. Dogwood. Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah. One of those. And that, that'll be the kitchen part of it. And then we have these absolute huge, uh, blue and white urns. I mean, they're ginormous that are probably. Mm. At least 24 inches tall. I mean, they're, they're massive. And I always take a lid off of one of them. Right now it's got, you know, Christmas greenery in it and winter greens in it. And I'll do, you know, just a bunch of, uh, again, I'm not buying anything or getting anything'cause we've been, we've sold it for years, but we've still got the same stuff we've sold three years ago, four years, five years ago. got it in a container. I'll just drag it out. But is, you know, Ivy and pink Quince. Um, some white tulips and, and stick it in that blue and white vase, and that'd be beautiful. I think in the, the kitchen, uh, part of the, part of the house.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm. Yeah. You
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:The kitchen island. Kitchen island,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:you got plenty of room there.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:plenty room there. There's,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm. I, I love our artificial tulips. I think they're so real.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:mm-hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:real looking. And, as much as I love real tulips. Like again, I do, I don't want'em in a bulb forming in my yard'cause it's just gonna be messy. They're not gonna last very long. That's always what I get mad about'em.'cause they come up, they look pretty for a week and then you're screwed. All that work for a week. but yeah, those white tail looks. Oh, and those hot, those pink. Mm mm mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, I'd like to, well, you, the sherbert color ones are my favorite.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:It's
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh yeah. Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:That color is the best. Now that the new pinky color that, we did a live sale recently and you feature that, that that pink it, it showed more red on screen, but it really is a little softer, a pinker color that is a beautiful new color, but ultimately that, um, sherbert color is like, Ooh, that's a good color, good color, good color.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:You know, Ana loves her in orange, tulip, Ana Garden for anybody wasn't following, but I seen that they were, they were with us, but she lives in orange, tulip, and I do too.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hmm. Okay,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:want'em in
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:There you go.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:but.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Okay. The one thing I'll say to you is don't don't put a lot of stuff on the back of the toilet will cause the toilet lid not to stay up. I call that the man killer. If you can get your visuals going,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Lord.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:because I'll go in, it's like, can I have a flower arrangement back here on the toilet? And I want it big. And I'm like, well, but you have to open the lid up and this lid won't fall. Eh, Henry don't care. He, he misses anyway.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, Lauren.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Uh,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:So I'll just say, just, just be careful how big it is on the back of it,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Here's an
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:So with the lid there, you.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:or men missing. There's a designer who I follow out of Boston who is young and fun and quirky and you know, she loves color, so she's not my style at all, but I appreciate her, right? so she was showing her bathroom, um, she was just doing Instagram story button. It's all marble floors, walls, everything. Um, well done and it's all honed. And, um, somebody was saying something to her like, how do you clean all that and all those, the boys and all that? And she goes, I just use bleach. I don't care. She's like, it's already honed. What am I do to it? I'm not gonna destroy. She's like, I just watch everything, watch everything dealt with bleach. And I'm like, oh,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Wow.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I'm not supposed to do that with porous marble.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:No,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Cesar
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:just suck it right on in.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:she has two young boys and a husband, and she said, it's the only thing I'll use.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Well, that's
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, okay.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:don't know what it does to it, but I just know that you say don't do it.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well when she,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Right.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:when she has a floor full of sand in two years, she'll know.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Does it
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm. Yes. It eats it.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:don't know.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I mean, I really am asking, I don't know what I know. Just I've been told don't use bleach on, uh, uh, on marble. I don't know about, I can't say that I know all stones, but I, I've heard marble for sure.'cause it's a lot more porous and, you know, I, I don't wanna scare people'cause marble is hardy. But you just have to be smart about how I. We only, like on our floors, we only, we have a steam mop. That's it. And we've, years ago when we moved in this house, she bought one. And that literally, that's it. And it, it steams it, right? It dis disinfects it and cleans it, there's no chemicals in any it, so you don't have to worry about anything. It literally steams it clean and uh, so we've never had to worry about that kind of stuff.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hmm.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Shark, if you want to, if you
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Shark steam shark.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:it's the ultimate steam cleaner.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:boys
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:for an offer that doesn't exist.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Right.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, so Stewart, is there anything else that you do at your home or are you plan on doing? Because now you've got that, the sitting, the
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:have 42 mantles.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh, I know. I'm sure.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:I'm sure Jeremy's dying to do something in the, your sitting room,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Oh, he is upfront. Yeah.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:He's already got his eyes on stuff and I'm like, oh, parrot down.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Uh, do you have a basement for storage? I know you
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:We have a basement, but not for storage. It is a, uh, part of it is a dirt floor. Part of it is a brick floor.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:It is.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:yes.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:It's for the
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:for the ghosts and it is for mechanical purposes. And when it rains a whole lot, we got, might get wet still. I mean, we've got four sump pumps down there. To keep it dry. Yeah, to keep it dry. There was only one previous, but we've added two more that keep it pretty dry. So yeah,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Hm,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:ongoing.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Okay.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:So no, nothing will go to the basement. So we have a.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:it's like, you know, I had to use my basement and finish it and my parents are there some, so we lost a lot of her storage and so I really at a point had to pare down and purge and stuff. So whatever I display and use, it has to be very purposeful so there's no extra fluff unless I know that we've got a home for it. You
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Right?
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:stuff, so I guess I'm like, if you got Jeremy wanting to buy stuff all the time
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:it, that's part of the thing.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, there's. Technically a back porch underneath the staircase that goes to the backyard, that, that's also access to the basement. And um, we are actually building, that's our spring project, building built-ins, basically built-in closets on that back porch. Because it is an enclosed porch already. It has windows and it's, it's pretty much a pass through, quite honestly. It's not something you'd go sit on. Um, so we're building closet slash pantry things in there to store seasonal stuff.'cause that's the storage, you know?
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:gonna be his decor closet.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:It is, it is. It is. You know.'cause in 160 year old house, they didn't have closets,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Mm-hmm.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:know, in the closet. They did have.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:for every, every, uh, fourth of day to
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:No. No.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:for support our lavish lifestyle at house by Js d.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Right. So yes. So that's gonna become basically the storage area, but it will look like a wall of built-in pantries, pretty much.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:Okay, so you
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:having to plan ahead and readjust,
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:the stuff that'cause you, you can, to a degree be more of a minimalist, like, like what you have and what you acquire. You don't keep adding on and adding on and adding on, right. And where you've got a new man in your life and he is a add on. Add on, and add on some more.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:He likes
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:he loves things and it's like, you know, I bring stuff in and it has a purpose to where it goes, and that's just it, you know? But, mm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:You are
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:All.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:to buy it. And let's see if I can make it fit somewhere. You are. Like
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:No.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:you bought it, you know where it's gonna go.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Right, right. So, but that's okay.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:did I tell you the, you know, Tina, um, Tina Elm built our house. Now it's almost two years ago. I can't believe this, but, you know, I helped her with it and I knew she was doing a storage room for her stuff. and you know, she's in and she's gotten moved and she's got it all done. So she opens the, the double doors and the lights come on and it's like, and look at it. And she said, what do you think? And it was just line
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:her accessory closet.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:It was lined with recent baskets and planters and tchotchkes, and I looked at all of it and I said, well. Thank you for supporting my lavish lifestyle because it was, it was housed 2.0. I'm telling you, she was on steroids. I was like, I didn't realize you bought all that. She said, yeah, I've known you a while Haven. It's like,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:been
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:yeah.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:was gonna say
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:been. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. That's, that's a good thing. That's a good problem. um, remember we had this little vase that had little pink tulips in it, little faux water, little pink tulips from years ago or pre-made. We didn't actually make them. I got one of those that always goes on the vanity in the bathroom, not on the back of the toilet. Um. That. Do something on the kitchen island. Do something on the front foyer. The bookcases will add a little bunny tchotchke, little set arounds here or there. that's about it, right? And that's about all I do. I think that's enough.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Right.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I don't have it
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Mm-hmm.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:to know Spring is here once it's said and done. But
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:we're,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:little things that we bought here, little vintagey rabbit things. I always get those here.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:we're very similar and I think all three of us are very similar to that too, that we don't turn the whole house over for anything, truthfully. Even you, I'm gonna go a little bit more all out for Christmas, but, the idea of someone going and then filling shopping carts full of. Bunnies and signs and flowers and, and all the, and then it all goes in like the kitchen and the living room, and it goes, and it's just everywhere. It gives me hives.
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Uh.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:something that you honed in on and we featured it on a live sale are those little carton of speckled eggs that we
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah,
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:you can reference it to people, I do love those and I probably will get a set of those and put it in a
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:well.
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I don't, something I don't know, but I really. Do. If I want to add, and again, I have to be very purposeful'cause there's not an inch left to store anything if I have, if I get it, I have to really like it. Uh, I do love those, uh, I You, you should put this on the podcast so they can find them.'cause I think those are pretty, and they're a good price point too. Um,
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:we
squadcaster-0b7a_1_02-27-2025_092510:I really am inspired by those.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah, we had'em in the live sale last night and we sold quite a few of them last
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:Well, I was gonna say someone just, someone just held up a sign that I read that said Live sell did great yesterday.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:Yeah, we did. Yeah. It
stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:So it was a good one. Whatever you had on there. I did not watch it.
jeremy-guest740_1_02-27-2025_092509:you haven't caught us in our life sales, make sure you, uh, you download our app or called House Floral, you'll find it wherever you get the, uh, wherever you download apps for your phone or tablet device. Um, and we have them. We try to do every, we're gonna start doing every Wednesday. That's the goals every Wednesday as much as we can. And we show fun stuff and sometimes there's special promotions.

stuart_1_02-27-2025_092509:what I.
