Started with cabinets for the wife snow balled into ripping down all mobile home panels rewired all the electrical outlets in the kitchen new light fixtures new drywall and insulation on the exterior wall. I feel like a bolt broke in the head when doing a simple thermostat housing this [BLEEP] sucks.

I feel your pain.  I have my brother plus others coming to town this weekend.  I happen to be off this week.  wife also happened to want to paint the house.  Guess what! I’ve got two days to paint the [BLEEP] house.  She was ready to pay 4700 to have it done a month or so ago. I thought that was ridiculous.   Now we have company coming.  I spent 570 at sherwin Williams today for paint alone!!   I also enlisted the help from a couple employees.  It’ll get done.  Comes out of my pocket though.  Idk how it goes from her wanting to pay someone to me doing it and also paying a couple employees to bail me out and help.  So I expect to be out close to a thousand.  And I [BLEEP] hate painting!!!With a [BLEEP] passion!  As long as the wife is happy?   Idk, between you and I, my patience are wearing thin with this chick.

I think my wife owes me money. I may just send her an invoice.
