The one thing I wont do anymore, is large project drywall finishing. I can do it but I am slow and a perfectionist, so I find its better for me to pay a pro to do it in a third the time, while I go do what I do to pay for it in a quarter the time.

It kinda set the tone of the marriage. It was pretty much over before it began. But the house turned out fucking great!

My DW and I are in the early planning phase for building our retirement all steel barndominium. One thing that I will not compromise on is a commercial-grade, rear-exit toilet, with an electronic Sloan-type valve to flush it. No way am I ever going to wait for a residential toilet tank to re-fill! Bombs away woosh, wait 5 seconds, ready to fire again. I want the mother-of-all toilets that even puts Al Bundy's mighty Ferguson to shame.....

Shortly after we bought our house 15 years ago, I changed out the toilet with an American Standard Champion. You know, the toilet that claimed to be able to flush down 3 dozen golf balls in a 1.6 gallon woosh:
In 14 years, I can count on one hand how many times I had to take a plunger to "flush-a-saurus" for a clog. Our well water finally ate the bolts that hold the tank to the bowl out last year. Rather than replace the stainless bolts for another 10+ years of lifetime, my DW thought that it would be a good idea to replace it with a one-piece toilet with no metal parts and pushbutton flush. Enter the poo Jacuzzi from hell. TL;DR is that Jacuzzi should stay out of the toilet business! European styling (but not European plumbing) means that an American plunger doesn't seal against the drain. I have no idea what the trap diameter is, but the thing needs plunging at least 75% of the time and would seriously choke on a grape if I tried to flush one. I had to buy a wonky, snake-looking plunger to, as Ed Norton sang in "Song of the Sewer" keep things moving along. Long story short, if I'm building from scratch, it will include the mother-of-all commercial toilets! I have similar plans for the guest bathroom in our garage. I always said that if I was building a "trophy" garage that it would include an indoor handicapped porta-potty as the guest bathroom. Can you imagine the grossness of telling a visitor that they have to use a porta-potty and not a bathroom in the house? When they open the door expecting a plastic seat and smell, they find a real toilet, lights, and marble fixtures.....

1. doesn't finish in anywhere near a timely fashion 2. stalls or drags out enough to annoy my wife enough to allow for dedicated time to finish 3. gets done in the wee hours of the morning 4. is already wifey approved so time is not an issue 5. is completed in a timely manner, possibly at the expense of a happy wife
