It's ok to dislike her. I do too and haven't talked to her in 4 years though I occasionally see her Facebook posts which is how I know about the home renovations and her bragging about how generous she was to the worker. Any kindness she's ever shown has been to look good to others.

I'm not remotely jealous of her wealthy but shallow life. I love my little home that I'm renovating to be my oasis and my friends and partner that all love me deeply. I opted out of the vapid life of appeasing others and don't regret it.

She has too much money and too much time and is really influences by trends. It's like she doesn't have a personal style and just does what is trendy. She's one of those people that actually knows the color of the year for the major paint brands and orders expensive furniture from catalogs and magazines.

Her switching the beautiful ornate wood kitchen with gas stove to a kitchen that was stolen from economy class is a spaceship made me sad. But I'm glad the worker's family gets to enjoy the old kitchen woodwork.

When my mother had her Tuscan style kitchen redone to be a boring all grey kitchen, one of the workers asked what she planned to do with the cabinets and counter tops being removed. She informed him that she'd paid to have them taken to the dump. He asked if he could have them and she said sure. He saved her the dump fee and apparently his wife was very happy to get completely wood cabinets and marble countertops in great shape.

Those demo shows make me cringe.
