Got the door painted, and managed to get two more items off the list!! via Make It So! The Never Ending (Builder’s) To Do List
Could you believe it has already been a year since we moved to the custom home delay prone project from hell? The yard is still not done, with pending landscaping due to fair weather. The builder pretty much ghosted after the holidays so we are on our own. W is still distraught about the front […]
