The real estate market and my private life imploded roughly at the same time! As I scrambled into survival mode, fearing change with every breath, Jeff hired another person to “share“ my job … along with the rest of America I am being recycled!

It looks like I pulled my hair out but I just decided to get rid of everything fake so the curls that were not mine had to go! My hair guru Chaz Dean has assured me my real hair will grow back stronger because of my decision. The hair I am missing wasn’t mine anyway … I now think the same about lots of things!

Jeff is “current economy” stressed and “Jeffrey-ing” all over the place! Lucky for me my personal Titanic moments put these seeing red anger outbursts into perspective, therefore Jeff pounding his steering wheel and directing an original (designed by Jeff Lewis) “NOT PREPARED!” in my direction is just a typical great day in my office neighborhood’!

Jenny:
You're a star now and half the show (he needs you to keep the show a success). Are you going to be flexing your new-found muscle this season?

Hi Jenny - your adorable!! You will have no problem out there 'on the market'. It's brutal (I know...) Did I read correctly that those aren't your curls? You wear them sooo well... Of course, you look good when straight. Im a curly girl and always check out the different ways you wear them. In the last few years where all hair is straight it's refreshing to see curls especially on someone so charming -- please tell me their real!!

Jenni - You look even more beautiful than the last two seasons. I think Jeff should be careful of his verbal abuse of you (especially since he hired that woman Rachel - who is useless to the TV audience). I worked for an Iranian man with the exact personality as Jeff. He brought a nephew into work with us and he was as lazy as a camnel - and uncle did not say anything. One day I forgot to do something (very minor) - the boss started berating me and I got up, took my handbag, and quit. He came to my house begging, etc. and I never went back. I am afraid you will do the same - so Jeff should learn to control his anger. I was so upset when I heard he hired someone for your job and you would be working three days a week. I was very upset that he would do this especially with your divorce, etc. Take care of yourself and you will find happiness.

I understand what you going thru with Jeff. I had a boss just like him. I worked for a company with two guys who were partners in love and business. They are both great people and I love them but working for them was like watching Flipped Out.
You seem to know how to work with Jeff without stressing out. At least you do not show it on the show.

Hang In there and you will find love again

Honey, you are a hottie! Don't worry so much about your next love, it's true what they say, it always comes when you are concentrating on other things in your life. You are by far not a desperate woman. Your pretty, cool, funny, sweet and smart. You will find love again.

Jenni!
I love Jeff but I adore you! Watching you feels like home :^)
(Jeff too, I'm just happy he's on the other side of the screen!)
I think the things I admire the most about you are how wonderfully present you are and how vulnerable you allow yourself to be. You are absolutely refreshing! Maybe this might end up as a "two wedding season" now that you're on the market??!!!
I wish you the best you little FOX!

Jenni,
You are charming, beautiful, witty, and a very patient woman. Every time I watch I'm thinking, Ok,,,, she's gonna tell Jeff exactly what she's thinking and put him in his place. You have once or twice and I just say,, yes,,,
Well, I watched the premier last week, and saw Jeff's self portrait. I guess I missed the scene, or it just appeared. Anyway, I'm looking for your portrait because I would love to put you on my wall.
Keep your head up, and by the way I eat a lot of salads too. So, that's how you stay looking so fine,,

We can't get enough of flipping out. You seem t be doing fine Jenni. A lot of people were praying for you. In all fairness we need a break from the Housewives series. New Jersey went to an all-time low. Nothing else is like this show and let's keep it that way.Love how you stand up to Jeff, but don't you want to smack his face sometime? We know he's obsessive but at times he's very cruel.This season we hope you date. You deserve it

Wishing you nothing but positives and maybe a millionaire!

I have always been curious as to what your salary is. For all you and all you take I would hope it is at least in the six digits!!

I don't know how you work with Jeff. I like him a lot but if he treated me like the way he treats your or either of the Chris's I would have to curse him out. Zoila can handle her business. She's tough. Don't date the salad guy. He's trying to remain in the closet. Yes, real 'men' eat salad. They don't invite you out for a salad. The salad is incidental to the meal. This is a huge red flag. Jeff has no boundaries and is still all in your business, but he means well and he's right about this. You will meet a cool real man. Don't go below age 30, much to immature and you just got rid of that.

Great to see you're still with Jeff. With everything you experienced during last season's filming I was worried you would find too many emotional ghosts in Jeff's office and seperate even more from him like when you refused to let Jeff know where you moved to.

Jennie, now you know anybody that you date will also have to have the Jeff Lewis approval if there is a possibility that it will develop into a meaningful relationship. Just don’t suggest that he also work with you.

I too have an X who lied and stole from me. That is the ultimate act of disrespect and one I could not forgive. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise when Jeff installed that camera. It may have saved you from further heartache on down the line. I think you are terrific and I especially enjoy the dynamics the cast has together. You understand and truly care for one another. I cannot imagine either of you without the other.

I’m looking forward to season 3 as you are an inspiration and guiding force. I would just give anything in order to be able to work with ya’ll.

Best of Luck

Jenni,

Love you and your boss! You are such a winning combination. Funny how he torments you and yet he calls it mentoring. Hope you find a wonderful person to date or even have more than a salad with. Your storyline was heartbreaking last season, but your showing all of us, that there is life after after all. Smile...always. You look vibrant and renewed. You'll be rewarded soon. I saw a Just The Tip clip and about died laughing. Some call it Just The Head...one girl said she had two kids by Just The Head...lol

Can't wait to see the craziness that is your job, life and show! Break a Leg!

Hey Jenny! I was so glad to see you on the show this season. It would not be the same without you! I'm not getting why Jeff needed someone to "share" your job, unless that's what you wanted or needed. Don't get me wrong, I adore Jeff, but when he lets you have it, I can hardly watch! Sometimes, I think he forgets how much his success is due to you. Successful people need to remember that without their staff they wouldn't be nearly as successful as they are. I'm sure you give your pint of blood everyday for Jeff Lewis' company! By the way, what are you auditioning for? I think your the bomb!!

Jenni-
You were in so much pain last season when you found out the truth about Chris, my heart was breaking for you. Although I am a guy I will never understand why some of us are such dogs that we can treat such a beautiful, warm, and giving woman like you so badly. Believe me, there are thousands of us out here who would treasure a very special and unique woman like you. You are a prize and I am confident that you will meet someone who will value you and treat you with the love and respect you so richly deserve. And bravo to you for not allowing Jeff to reopen old wounds and blame you for what happened. I think Jeff would benefit greatly from a good swift kick in the rear end once in a while and you, in your own way are just the person to give it to him! Although it is difficult for him to show his true feelings, it is obvious he cares for you as evidenced by his very sincere apology for his anger on last night's show. Jeff may not be easy to love but I suspect he is well worth it. He's damn lucky to have you in his life. Please keep in mind that there are so many of us who admire you and all that you bring to the show and to the people who are so fortunate to be able to call you a friend. I am sure that the years to come will bring you the enrichment and happiness you so richly deserve. You are also one of few truely "real" people on all "reality tv". God bless and you go girl!

You look great Jenni! Glad to see the show again. Good luck with Mr. Salad, but Jeff was right, 24 is too young for you. Guys that young are too immature. It will just be more of the same you had before. I hope you find someone wonderful!

Jenni,
You are adorable. You look great. I did not even notice the missing "hair" until you mentioned it in your blog. I think you will have lots of dates in the near future! I must say I was a little disappointed when Jeff said he hired someone to share your job. There is only one person that I want to see in your job and it's you!

Jenni, your show is my "secret" obsession!!! Jeff is so talented and OCD, just like my brother has always been. You are an actress and able to be whatever you need to be with humor! Glad this show is back, only reality show I like plus the decorating tips are the best.

Hi Jenni
I don't quite get the "shared" job approach. Did Jeff cut back your hours? I hope not because you have always been a talented, skilled and very patient employee. How anyone can work for Jeff for 8 years is beyond me. Kudos to you and Ryan.

Jenny - Girl you are not a cougar, they are botoxed, shiny women who are very scarey, you are the complete opposite of that - Starting over is never easy, but its new and exciting and your young and gorgeous! So goodbye past 10 years - hello next 10 - Enjoy, you deserve it, your a joy.

Jenny, you are a wonderful and caring individual am I sure. I love the show with you on there so don't ever leave us. Take lots of deep breaths when dealing with Jeff. He may have his moments but I am sure most of it is just dealing with the stress of the housing market right now. As my mother always taught me "kill'em with kindness", it will go a long way. I wish you luck in your love life and work.

You are so strong & terrific & full of life! I agree w/Jeff, being asked out for a salad is very suspect--by anyone! Who asks anyone out for a salad, romantic or not? Hmmm. Curious to see this guy. I hope you take him up on it & invite him to lunch chez Lewis.

You are truly a gorgeous person inside and out...and a saint for putting up with Jeff for 8 years! You will soon find yourself in midst of personal bliss because you so richly deserve it!

Jenni,

I think you are fabulous, you look great and I am trying to have a more rational attitude like you. I love how you handle everything that is thrown your way without breaking down every five minutes. You really do know how to deal with difficult personalites and life's curve balls. You and Jeff rock, so happy to see you back on the show!!!

You're free so enjoy the freedom ;-D

Good girl Jenni! You are an intelligent, independent female who, unfortunately, like so many of my friends elected to remain in an unhealthy relationship ttttooooo long. Ciao Chris Elwood...and good riddance!!!! Your viewers want only the BEST for you! And...you are Jeff's assistant, why?!?! lols
