Changes.....Magic workers needed for Plan
Comments (31)Bevangel, I hope you had a wonderful weekend! The weather was beautiful in IL. We spent most of our time at the town pool! I'm refreshed and ready to tackle the plans again. They are planning on breaking ground on Thursday, but the forecast for this week isn't looking so good.....LOL The question of the day, every time we see someone we know.....'So when are you breaking ground?' LOL I like your changes so much better. I love the double door entry to the master and the sink and makeup counter outside the bathroom. Very clever. I printed the last drawing you did and added some revisions. It is almost there. Thanks for being so helpful. If the pantry needs to take a little space from the master bedroom, that would be fine. I really like the stairs where they are. We sort of designed our whole plan around having the open staircase in the big open room. It makes the basement not so closed off since we have 2 little girls. We will have a finished basement, also with a family room, playroom, bar, bedroom, bath, and storage, as well as the mechanical room. In order for our girls to use the space, we wanted to make it more connected to the main living area. I'm thinking we should put a door or allow for a door to be added when they are teenagers and want their privacy in the basement, but for now I like it all open. Thanks again! You are truly an ANGEL!!!!! Michelle Here is a link that might be useful:...See MoreWitch Hunt for Co-Worker...WWYD?
Comments (14)I guess I mind in the fact that her mistakes have never been addressed w/ her and when they've tried her in a different position it's always been prefaced in a 'Hey - would you be interested in_______position?'. Now I'm not one for hand holding by any means but I do believe that one should be given a chance to correct mistakes by knowing what they are. When either my direct boss or I have noted an ongoing issue w/ her we've taken the steps to alert her immediate supervisor which is our Office Manager ('The Big K') over all of the offices. What I get back is a list of questions (seriously a list) of how things work in our office. Worst manager that I've ever had anywhere but the big boss hides his head in the sand about it. Big K bleeds money out of the seams of this business and the big boss seems totally and blissfully unaware. Direct boss and I are convinced that we are in the midst of a secret buy out over the course of the next few yrs. These are some of the many reasons my direct boss wants to open her own practice and take me w/ her. This is the first time that I've ever worked in a small independantly owned place of business. What a difference!!!!!! Whew! Suero - LOL! I can't tell you how many times people across both the main office and ours have wondered about 'special friends'. There seem to be a few! Eeeewwwww....See MoreHelp with "worker's cottage" floorplan design
Comments (23)Well, I've been over to kitchens and got a bit of advice. A couple people are urging me to knock down the wall between the kitchen and DR and put in an island, but I suspect you Old House people would scream in agony over that one. :-) Based on their input and yours, I'm now thinking along these lines: -Keep the chimney. That'll avoid having to spend on a new furnace and water heater for now. They're perfectly functional, just not maximally efficient. -Surgically remove the sink cabinet but leave the others in that plane. Slide a range in there (assuming it's a 30" opening; didn't measure). Use that exercise to see if the boxes can be removed from the wall. They do have backs on them, so I'm not sure it's a lost cause. -Move the doorways to the center of the room (no one has yet given me a good reason not to other than it's a lot of work) -If we can cleanly remove them, take down the cabinets over the existing range spot and relocate to the window wall. -Buy new base cabinets for along the window wall -Build new wall cabinets to fill in the rest of the window wall, matching/mirroring the relocated ones. -Add shaker trim to the old doors and maybe drawers. I've found some reasonably priced unfinished RTA cabinets at kitchencabinetdepot.com. I'll carefully prep the existing and paint the whole shabang in some creamy white color. FWIW, I priced out all new cabinets at Lowe's and they came to about $9K, $1500 of which was trim. The same set of cabinets from KCD (no trim) is $3500. So theoretically, with some elbow grease and used appliances, I might be able to pull off the kitchen for $5K, even with all new cabinets. But I'm determined to meet the challenge and be as tightwad as possible on this, so I'm going to try for maximum re-use....See MoreExperience with Contractors and Workers Comp.
Comments (33)"Snooby you are not making sense. We are talking about contractors here." And It would require two submissions, because of maximum allowed verbiage, to back-quote where you have used the term"HO", in reference and associated with employees. So, should I assume that "HO" means contractor, instead of contractor, meaning contractor?...See Moresalonva
