I am getting very sick of the routine:

Up at 7 a.m., take daughter to school at 7:45. Play with the boy, give him to mom at 10 a.m. Work on house until 1:30 p.m (currently finishing up a complete kitchen remodel); Get ready for work, arrive at work by 2:30 p.m. Work anywhere from 9 - 15 hours, come home, either crash and burn, or work on detail/cleanup from morning's work done - repeat daily, up to 6 days a week.

I bought the place from my parents, and admittedly got a sweet deal, but lord almighty, they weren't kidding when they said it needed some work. The bright side is, there's only two rooms left to go, then it's carpet throughout, and relax and enjoy until the wife decides she doesn't like it :rolleyes:

Just venting and getting that off my chest!

yeah, i know how you feel. I have been working on a garage/poolhouse the last month while also dealing with school and a ****load of homework. The last two weeks myschedule was 630 wake up, 7-15 go to school, arrive home at 3, work 3-6 out in the barn, eat dinner, 6-9 was usually spent on homework and projects, and then a guy would come over and help me put another 4 or so hours into the building. It was getting rediculous. Its lots better this week i dont have anymore homework.
