Don't sugar-coat it like that. Tell me what you really think.
I have wrestled with the guys on the radius. . .In the interest in time, and cost . .. well it is what it is.

Ok..it s ugly;very bad chopped...
I would gladly fix that for you..for free.. just to make it look good.

thanks. I will consider bringing you over from Romania to do that.

.. actually i think u can do it yourself.. I suppose that round piece is a bent wood(right) u can put together some wood and mill it in the nearest wood milling machine u have, then cut the old covering wood..
Anyway..there are some guys around who would gladly advice u which is the best way
.Cheers!

I know I am boring the heck out of you all with this. . but I have to say. . .I am pretty giddy right now. We started the move-in this weekend. We had trick or treaters for Halloween. little kids saw a Punkin on the porch and That clinched it. I felt at home. I actually teared up. We are not sleeping there yet, the furniture still has to be moved in-- That happens Wednesday--but the house is done. My grown up kids slept there on Saturday night. They used the showers for the first time. We ate our first meal around the dining table as a family. Its all great. There are still little glitches to work out, still have to close the long-term mortgage. All that kind of stuff . . .but!
For all of the stress and worry. . . despite how nerve-racking the whole process has been. .. the payoff is pretty sweet. Thanks for letting me share the experience with you. . .my SU friends.

All that's left is the house warming party. Will there be mud wrestling?

Green jello.

Congratulations David, and thanks for sharing.
Cheers -
Any new pictures of the house now that you've moved in David? Did it feel like you were home for the holidays?

It was post-card perfect. My family--My wife and my kids--together for Christmas in the new house. It was really nice. We hadn't been all together for the holidays for about 4 years, so that made it all the better. The house really turned out nice and we are enjoying it immensely. We've been in it now for about 2 1/2 months and it's been wonderful. I will post a few picks of the finished product shortly.
Thanks for asking? how was your Christmas ?
