        Well, My contractor said. . "oops!" so they will fix it. Good. I am so tired of losing sleep over this. My wife / my client said to me last night

        "I am not just excited to move into this house because you designed it. I am not just excited to spend our first holiday season in the new house. I am just excited to have this done because I am sick of worrying about this and that and every little detail. It's exhausting."

        Hear. Hear.

                                        Thanks guys. You ain't just a woofin' there. The finish guy on the job is very very good. He's also very very expensive. We've been beating people up pretty good on their prices because of the economy and their need for work, etc etc, but as I have said before. I have 1 chance to do this right and there is very little I am willing to compromise on as far as design and craftsmanship. . seeing as this is a CRAFTSMAN Style home.

                                        So. . .it will be beautiful, wonderful. I'll live in 3 days and then have to put it up for sale cuz I can't afford to live in it.

                                            Hmm..what about that arch near the entrance ..it looks a bit ugly(?!ยฟ),couldn't the radius be smaller? . (imho)

                                            Other than that..looks pretty nice..vegetation needed ๐Ÿ˜„ .
