Almost 6 months to finish.... and holy hell it's too hot for this shit and it isn't even summer full on yet. Nice in the shade tho.
I built almost the same exact deck back in late 1980s. Sold the house two years after. The buyers raved about the deck on the walk through. A year after they moved in they removed all my fruit trees from the back yard ripped out the deck and painted the place pink. I felt like strangling them. They fucked that house up good.
One reason why I never drive by my first house I bought in 1986 and sold in 2001..
I drove by that same house recently heard it had switched hands again. The new owners have it looking sharp again but ya that can be frustrating to see all your blood sweat and tears treated that way.
What can you say you are not there anymore., where I live now is a struggle to keep the trees and vines from taking over.
I was separated for four years. My wife had control of the house while I was gone. I got it back in February and she had done much worse than those idiots back then I have spent every waking moment since February erasing her stupidity and started walking buyers through yesterday. It is finally better but I wonder what my blood pressure was for all of those months. Due to the divorce I had very little funds to repair and replace. I had to resurface just about everything. The labor involved was ridiculous. I went through more Dimond pads for natural stone and sand paper for wood and drywall than you can imagine. I just don't know what goes through angry people's minds. This was her house also. If this is a statement on who she is inside she is a very ugly person under her skin. Oh well couple weeks and this nightmare is over and on to bigger and better things. Look forward to seeing my boat dock up on the lake from my three seasons room up there. The best revenge is living well and that is what I plan to do!
I gave both my ex wives everything they wanted in the divorces. NOTHING is worth the stress of dealing with a petulant, angry woman. NOTHING.
It can all be replaced
I believe in death do you part. In the event of it not working out, you split 50/50 (unless one decides otherwise and they don't with the hassle).
That's the deal for better or worse as far as I am concerned.
First wife insisted we give 10% of my GROSS business income to the church and that we attend at least 3 days a week. NO GO
Second wife kept writing scripts for herself and spiraled down down down. Also a NO GO. I gave her ample chances to quit.
Life is too short to put up with bullahit everyday
