I have worked all (and I do mean all) weekend on the plans for my sister's <insert long string of expletives here> house. I still have problems with the back stairwell and the <insert string of expletives> pub she wants in the basement. The entire upstairs plan no longer works because of the ways that she's changed the main floor... and I'm no where near through... and I'm so sick of this house that I cannot speak coherently about it because it tends inspire cursing and/or a desire to do violence.
And did I mention that I'm no where near through?
Or that every time she sees the plan that she changes it and I'm already having trouble making the structure work? And every time she changes something, she has no idea of the 40 other things that change causes in other things? And that she's irritated because I won't show her the plans in progress any more (can't imagine why [/sarcasm])?
How about the fact that I once told her that I could finish this <insert expletives> plan by "the beginning of March" and she's taken that as an iron-clad guarentee that I'll finish by March first (hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
The truly discouraging thing is that the more I work on it, the more convinced that I am that it's going to blow the budget sky-high and they won't build the thing... and I will have sacrificed months of my life doing something that has driven me absolutely batty for no reason whatsoever.
Upping my frustration level, this weekend was the fact that I was stuck inside drawing -- all day and all night -- while the weather is freaking unbelievably gorgeous. Crystal clear blue skies, warm, and spring-like with the daffodils in full bloom and a lovely breeze--the kind of weather that begs for picnics and just sitting in the sun... and I'm stuck inside drawing this <insert string of expletives> house.
Grr. Argh.
