Have you ever done some renovations that ended up taking "a bit" longer than expected?

Did you have to change course in some renovation/construction/major project?

Let's chat.

Got into a partnership to build a house and started in 1998...in 2001 it was mostly "complete". Until the partner decided to keep adding things. I couldn't sell my share out, so had to stay in the partnership until 2018!! Even at that, he wasn't done. BUT - I will say, I learned a whole lot about building, landscaping, and hardscapes in those 20 years. I still love doing the manual labor. You get so much satisfaction in seeing how well you've done with your own imagination, tools, and hard work.

(and while you surely put in a lot of time, I can understand your husband needs stuff to do while you're teaching the rest of us scripting, Scrapbooking and PaintShop Pro intricacies.)

GREAT idea making your own...even if it is 20 years later!!!
