This is starting to sound like a suspense thriller. Really looking forward to the next episode.

I really love the little guy with his detonator box blowing up the “budget”

I’ll never forget when we bought our horse property in Colorado…..we brought in builder and designer and they gave us a price of $250K to redo the house. We too use a steel beam to bump out the house. The final bill for us was in excess of $600K. Yes, it’s only money.

I like the fact you are moving the pillar and if you get a poured concrete ceiling that steel beam will help.

How exciting for both of you. This is an exciting time for you….embrace it.
