Does anyone want to help me clean my house?

I am hosting my book club on Monday, so naturally my house is in its messiest state. I was watching this show on BBC America called "The Life Laundry" and I really want them to come to my house and help me sort through all my junk. (plus they do some redecorating and paint walls and stuff)

You know, if all I knew about Great Britain came from watching BBC America on weekend mornings, I would think that it was a country dedicated soley to re-doing their homes. I like to imagine that I could move there, using 'Homes Under the Hammer' to help me buy a nice home at auction (or, failing that, 'Location, Location, Location' to help me buy a home on the market), then have House Invaders and Changing Rooms come to help me re-do the interior, and The Life Laundry people to help me with the bits left over. And then if I wanted to sell the home, I'd go to House Doctor.

Then Trini and Suzanne can come and give me a makeover on What Not to Wear.

Are any of those shows actually still on in the UK?

Well, none of this is getting my house clean. Also Easter is in a week and I've not gotten anything for Charlie's basket yet. Sigh.

Going to be a busy weekend.
