Here I am again; in remodeling hell.  It's the same old thing.  I would find a completely finished house, but it would be too much money or in the wrong neighborhood.  So, of course, I buy a house in the right area, but that needs work.  I embark on the process that I use to love.  People don't return your calls or don't show up and the schedule gets all out of whack.  Then I end up having to reschedule the few people who are with the program.  The house is a huge mess with all my furniture and boxes shoved in corners.  If even one fucking thing would actually be done I might be able to organize a few things.  As it is, I hate it so much that I flee to the apartment where I don't have to look at the dust, dirt and half done work.

Then there is the whole money issue....trying to save on the project and watching it slip through my fingertips.  I really, really need  to get back to painting.  This sucks!
