The HGTV dream home

A lot of people may or may not be familiar with the HGTV dream home giveaway. If you are a dedicated HGTV watcher then you are sure to know what I am talking about. Many people think that because I am twenty one almost twenty two that I would definitely be spending my time watching something else. Well HGTV is the only channel I need as far as I am concerned. My fiance always teases me by saying " you watch all of that HGTV and can't do one thing that they do." Well this is not true at all. Had it not been for HGTV I'm not so sure my house would be as coordinated and decorated as it is.

Back to the topic at hand. Every year HGTV builds a home in different locations around the world. The networks sends out a person to pick the ideal location each year.This year is the 11th or 12th dream home giveaway. The home was built in the Florida Keys on Islandmorada. The home is showcased on January first of each year and the entry period goes from January 1st to Approximately February 19th of each year. You must be 21 or older to enter and you can only enter once a day from a valid e-mail address. I am quite sure their are some people who create an infinite number of e-mail accounts and enter from all of them. This was the first year that I was able to enter and I entered my mom and I everyday except about two.

My fiance kept say "Get serious do you know how many people are entering this drawing? Those two days may have cost you." I said "No I don't know but I do know one person who is, Me." Well I know this may sound crazy but I am patiently awaiting my call, but I must say I hope they don't call while I am in labor on Friday. This home is worth 2.2 million dollars and comes with a Yukon Hybrid truck. Did I mention that the house is fully furnished by Ethan Allen's Home furnishings? Well to be honest I'll just take the 2.2 Million come back here where the cost of living is much lower, build me a nice 250,000 - 300,000 dollar home and invest and save the rest,but who knows? Just make sure to watch the giveaway live on March 16th at 8:00 or 9:00p.m. to see if I'm the lucky winner. Lets keep our fingers crossed. Me and my new family could surely benefit from this giveaway, but after all who couldn't?
