Really Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

[Lyle]

DOUGLASVILLE, Ga. - A woman came home from vacation to find a stranger living there, wearing her clothes, changing utilities into her name and even ripping out carpet and repainting a room she didn’t like, authorities said.

Douglas County authorities say they can’t explain why Beverly Valentine, 54, broke into an empty home and started acting like it was her own.

During the 2½ weeks the owner, Beverly Mitchell, was on vacation in Greece, Valentine allegedly redecorated the ranch home, ripping up carpet and taking down the owner’s pictures and replacing them with her own.link (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6307190/)

What a weird thing to have happen. I wonder what kind of history they will find about Beverly Valentine. A physical identity thief. I just can't imagine what she was thinking. It will be interesting to learn the rest of the story.

That is so weird... And its not like she was trying to steal her identity, she changed the bills in HER NAME! I think this person needs a bit of help

[question fear]

Psychological counseling would be more in line here. There is probably some form of mental illness. :D

Did she buy a new Mac for the house?

How did the house look when she was done redecorating?

Those would be good questions to have answered. :D

But she does need some help I agree. I hope she gets it...
