Ah, renovations. In theory it sounds so good; you can make the house layout and finishes exactly the way you want it but is all of the pain actually worth it? I think so. It’s almost like childbirth. Painful while you’re going through it, but you forget all about the pain when you have a bouncing baby at the end of it. Well, all in all, when my house baby was finished, I almost forgot about all the pain. There were some lingering twinges and aches, but they all disappeared after I had my housewarming party with so much champagne.
