Well, I am going to meet a contractor today so I can show him what needs to be done. The flooring guy already told me how much it will cost. Then I started pricing black knobs for the cabinets.......quite a bit when you start multiplying them buy dozens......my husband was cussing at the thought of these spoiled 20 and 30 somethings. We are from a generation where if you lower the price, someone will snag it and do their own touches. Apparently this younger generation wants it all. I look at my cousin and he is around 32......he wants it all. He and his wife want to move into a home that is all fixed up. That AND very affordable. Plus they have bad credit. So they are delusional enough to think they can have it all. The decorator says that is indicative of that generation. She said they will walk into your home and see the brass and walk out......totally discount the home because it doesn't look new. But it is 12 years old and priced much lower than new so they could go in and fix it up and get a much larger home than a new one AND have all they want.....but they are lazy and don't want to do any work. So I am a baby boomer and I work. I work my butt off and am not afraid to work. I resent these young people. I resent my cousin who has never returned one phone call to me. I call, they don't answer AND don't return calls. My cousin is in the ministry and I told my aunt that if you are in the ministry then you need to be available to people. So (of course) my aunt made every excuse for him. NO. Auntie. Stop making excuses for yourself AND your family. I call a spade a spade.
So can you tell I am PMSing?? Yes, I am. And sorry if any of you fall in the 20 to 30 something demographic......maybe I am over generalizing but that is how the designer categorized this age group.
