    It needs not saying but, you just can't win. I started all the work on my house 2 years ago and have given up. I haven't touched a paint roller, floor tile, or spackle in so long that I have no idea when I will even have the time, energy, or care to get started again. I have a place to rest my head when I sleep so for now, I am happy enough as it is.

    Me too but Wifey said she is tired of showering in a half finished bath (2+ years) so I scrapped what was done and started over (not my brightest moment)

    Well, I have been there, and done ALL that. We owned a house for 2 years back East, and it was the hardest 2 years of my life, hands down.

    This time around however, we bought NEW house. So, I am hoping that we won't have any serious issues for at least 5 years....

    And out here, there is almost NO yard work!

    All that said, I spent the last 3 days tearing out all the carpet, tile and vinyl flooring to make way for the wood and nicer tile that is getting installed this week.

    I bought my garage 10 years ago. Upgraded the lighting, new doors, etc. Still looks like crap. But it makes a great "crib" for my VX. Oh, yeah, it came with a house attached. Go figure!
