    Leah. Bless her awkward little heart. This girl again. It was kind of funny watching her cling to her fish bottle. She did not want Linda to manhandle it at all. I understand being more carefree with your facial expressions when you’re not on camera, but she needs to be be conscientious when she’s being filmed. She makes awful faces and is so odd in her posture and movements. Just stop it.

    Leah, is unusual to say the least. She makes so many funny (in a strange way) faces. In the latest video, I noticed at the end that Leah was doing a lot of strange things with her mouth, like pursing her lips. Does she have an overbite that she is trying to cover up? I don't know why she does that and the crazy head tilts.

    I will start by saying that I don't normally watch her videos. I happened to watch the video of her McMansion new build. No one needs a house like that! These people have egos off the charts! An entire video of bragging. Not a fan.

    Her house has such nice natural stone in the sunroom and outside. Then she went and ruined the fireplace by painting it. She likes Ralph Lauren style so she should have looked at his Colorado home with the stone fireplace.

    I liked that woman's house. I thought it was lovely. I don't know anyone who lives in a house like that. I've been to Scotland several times and I loved it, but I don't want to have deer heads or skulls in my house. Linda has one in her house, too. I guess it is part of the Southwest style. What gets me is the amount of stuff that these people have. It is just excess. I say that about all of Linda's plants, too. This woman didn't just have one deer skull; she had about twenty of them. That's just overkill (pun not intended). As I have gotten older, I don't want to have all of the "stuff". In fact, I'm taking another box of "stuff" to Goodwill tomorrow.

    Video visiting colleague John’s house:
    Cheap Linda sees some small clippings she wants in his garden and says “I’m going to have to take some of those for myself.” Helping herself first.

    Calls backyard “outdoor dining room” and
    it’s very protected from wind back here.” John replies no it’s not as Linda once again makes assumptions about things, running her mouth.

    Someone here mentioned she is short and it shows in this video standing next to John. Perhaps that’s why she’s so boisterous to overcompensate for this.

    She says it’s disappointing when something old outside breaks because “patina we worked so hard to get is ruined”. She shouldn’t give herself such credit for something simply weathering outside.

    Refers to viewers as “my followers”.

    John says when Linda first viewed his property she was peaking in the windows to see inside. Have some dignity Linda.

    Calls his house number “garden jewelry”.

    Video visiting house in suburbs:

    Says “the ‘Acrudemon’ of candle making” whatever this word means or is spelled.

    Calls the owners couch a “sette” just like she calls hers.

    “I’ve seen this ice bucket and almost bought it.” Linda you seem to only buy at thrift stores and this one looks new and beyond your cheap price point.

    Another crazy Linda word: Pautechaunt, however it’s spelled.

    Acts like it’s her house with her stuck up attitude just like she is at garden centers.

    “I had a wolf stove too.”

    “Cutting zinnias and bringing them inside is absolute mastery.” Linda it’s called cutting flowers and doesn’t involve mastering anything.

    Two videos of Linda watched back to back. Exhausting.

    It's Linda's attempt at a French accent.

    ‘Acrudemon’="accoutrement" (an accessory item of clothing or equipment)

    Pautechaunt= "penchant" (a strong or habitual liking for something or tendency to do something.)

    How has she not learned to pronounce "columns"?

    Wow, Linda reads here. I was the one who said that people couldn't use the handrails because of the plant pots next to them. Well, in her latest video, she said that some people are saying that the handrails can't be used and she showed that they can be used. I agree about one of them, but the one next to the wood pile, I don't think that one can be used.

    She showed a beverage dispenser that she used for Easter when she had people over. She raved about it. I wouldn't want to drink out of it. That thing will be a magnet for bacteria growing in it, especially being kept outside in the sun.

    She showed the side of the house. I still can't understand why those houses were built so close together. There must be plenty of land in Oklahoma.

    The earthquake today (4.8 magnitude) was near where Sophia lives. I was wondering about her collections so I went to her Instagram. She posted on Instagram that all of her Corningware is safe and there was no damage to her house.

    I just watched her video "Preparing for the Day ⟡ little joys, planning and bad hair days." I don't get all of the pinning up of her hair that she did at the end of the video. She pinned both sides back with bobby pins that showed. Not very attractive. Then she pinned the whole back under. She curled it all with bobby pins and then plastered it down flat. Why did she even bother with the pin curls? She should just get a bob cut.

    She tries to use those silly electric pruners saying “like plants we all need a good haircut”. Linda’s the last person that should mention a good haircut.

    Ha Ha. I laughed at that! :hearty-laugh:

    One thing that I have noticed is that she is not as cheap as she used to be. Now she will stop and buy coffee when she is out. In the latest vlog, she went to Dunkin Donuts and bought snacks for the kids. She is doing more product endorsements so that must be where the money is coming from.

    If they are not using that toilet, I think she should have a plumber remove it.

    It took her a year to get the railings on back porch because she had to “think of her vision” yet winds up picking the cheapest, plainest design that looks like jail cell bars. No good taste at all. The same bars are on railing in front, and the shadow they create on front steps ruins the curb appeal. She doesn’t think things through and makes spur of the moment bad decision with taste and style.

    I agree. I have wrought iron railings on my front steps. Every other bar has a twist in it. Also there is a curled design between some of the bars. They are not overly ornate, but they have some design to them.

    I see where Linda got more plants---a delivery of 30 plants, shrubs and trees. I find her excess to be overwhelming. Who buys like that? The men were planting the trees in pots in the soil. I wonder if these are ones that she will have removed and over-wintered in the greenhouse. In a prior video, when she mentioned that she over-winters some plants in a commercial greenhouse, I was astounded. I had never heard of anyone doing this.

    She showed a large planter box that she bought from Amazon. It cost almost $100. She bought two of them. Money is no object with her.

    I noticed that she has large pots on the back steps, next to her new railings. That is a safety hazard because a person won't be able to use the railing.

    I like the house. I think that the kitchen is pretty. The front living room is small but it is big enough for her and Hubs (I hate that name). The family room is big enough for entertaining. As far as the bathroom goes, it's large and luxurious. The plants in the window box provide some cover, as well as the remote controlled shade she had installed. What bothers me about the bathroom is that the upper window is uncovered. The house across the street is two-story and I always think that those people could be looking into her bathroom from their upper windows.

    A house on a corner lot is always exposed and wouldn't be my choice. There seems to be a lot of traffic noise. I didn't know anything about Oklahoma before watching Linda's videos. (I live in New England). The wind in Oklahoma would drive me crazy. After I watched a couple of her videos, all I could think of was the song from the musical "Oklahoma" with the words "Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain". Now I know why the lyrics are in the song.

    Another thing that shocked me was how close together all of the houses are in her neighborhood. Why are they so close together? There is barely room to walk down the side of her house. Being in New England, we have old homes here, but they are not so close together.

    When she was putting in all of the plants, I wondered how she was going to take care of everything as she gets older. She's already mentioned that it is a lot of work. I think she is starting to realize that. I suppose she has the money to pay gardeners when she can no longer do things herself.

    I don't care for Leah. I think she is strange in her appearance and how she speaks. She acts childish. I think Linda shows Leah in her videos because she is trying to appeal to a younger audience.
