Tapped out

So tonight I am in the shower and the missess states the neighbors redid their master bath.

i knew where this was headed so i went into a rant of how i have done enough. the kitchen, the floors, baseboards, doors, the half bath, the kids rooms, the pool and the back yard. then i laid down the law (in my mind which means nothing), no more house remodel until i get my next watch.

who will blink first???

- I totally agree with you and your rant. The neighbors should not have re-done the master bath.

I would come back and tell her lets figure it out. Tell her watch you want and how much is it. What does she want done in the bath and how much is it. See if you can do both and the time frames to accomplish it.

Same here. We redid the walk-in closet in our master bedroom about a year ago and every time I walk in there I just marvel at how nice it is now.
