*I am with a group of people, we are helping to remodel a house. This is some kind of community project for the owners who are in need of help. It seems like it might be for a TV show (either about how to remodel, or helping people in need) I see an area where windows are being installed… the frames are sturdy, bright white, not like the previous windows. They need to be cut in. I’m not sure where I should be helping, so I bounce over to the host/person in charge. He seems frustrated… some things are going wrong (he is blonde, I recognize him from TV but can’t place a specific name) he is at a drafting table with plans laid out, instructions… some wood working equipment. I ask if he’d like me to cut in around the new windows… he says sure, but doesn’t seem to be paying close attention to me. I look at the wall… there is a wall that is sort of an offshoot of the room… the room itself has been painted a sage green color (slightly darker than sage) the new wall is taped and mudded, but not painted yet. I notice someone has started cutting in around the new window already. I jump over to the table with the host again and ask if he’d like the wall to be green, or the blue color that someone has started to use. He puts his face in his hands… blue is the wrong color. It’s not that big of deal though, I can paint over it… it’s only one bit of blue paint that they managed to do. I ask if he’d like me to caulk around the window first, and he seems frustrated that it wasn’t done by someone else already. I go to talk to a woman – she is the owner or lives here… she has a round face, pleasant eyes, long hair pulled back in a pony tail. She is putting makeup on in a mirror, I’m talking about how nice the place will be when all these projects are finished. She seems happy, excited. I walk through the living room and see a large hole has been cut in the wall looking to the outside. Two people are outside, S is inside, he is lifting an air conditioning unit into the hole in the wall. I wonder if that is a project that was approved, since this seems like it’s an apartment, not a house… and the people living here might not have permission to cut huge holes in the wall. I also notice it looks like they are installing a window unit, and it is backwards…. the side with the dials appears to be on the outside.
