Quotes

July 27, 2011

and I don't mean these kind " ".

Alok and I have been getting quotes of various projects in the attempt get help on the house with the goal of living in our house at some point in our lives. We have had a lot of quotes in the last year, ranging from awesome to the ridiculous. Yesterday, we got a quote for some yard work. It actually wasn't ridiculous, but was way too much given our current financial situation. Sorry neighbors, the yard will be as is for awhile.

In the yard quote, we forgot to ask them to plant one of these:



This is what would be needed to fund the most RIDICULOUS quote that we have yet to receive on this house. And for those of you who follow this blog, we had a roof bid of 40K and a painting bid (outside of the house) for 45K. This one tops them all....

Drywall bid......

Take a guess in your head.....

$47,000!! Yes, I know it's a lot of work and we have a ginormous house, but seriously!!!

Anyone want to help with drywall in about 2 months when we get to it (or given my significant ability to underestimate time... 4 months?). We can buy a lot of pizza and beer for that amount....
