    AIR TIMES:

    Comfortable Basement Suite
    Busy working mom Marie is exhausted. Not only has she just finished a grueling medical degree, but she also lived through a total home renovation with her husband, Alex, and their two kids, Megan and Lauren. Like all good renovations, they are never complete, and attempts to keep the renovation ball rolling by finishing the basement themselves just hasn't worked. They want to turn their basement into a suite for Marie's mother, Sandra — affectionately known as YaYa. YaYa lives in another city, but wants to visit her close-knit family often, so she doesn't miss out on her granddaughters' childhoods. Host Candice Olson gives the grandmother a space of her own that's comfy and cozy and doesn't make her feel like she is being banished to the basement.
