We had our second meeting with our architect today and things went really well. We've now got three drawings that he is going to spec out so we can get bids from a few contractors. Then we'll really know how much money we're talkin' bout with this addition / remodel. Lance and I arm-wrestled over which plans to move forward with, but finally agreed on 3:
1. The most-expensive plan which will give us a bigger master bedroom and bigger 2nd bedroom by expanding the entire east all of the house and moving the current bathroom.
2. a mid-size option that expands our bedroom and expands part of the east side of the house.
3. a low-grade option that basically just tags on an extra bath to our bedroom.
I'm pretty sure I can coerce Lance into my special option with takes # 2 but pumps it up by expanding the entire east side of the house without moving the bathroom. it'll probably take me cooking lots of dinners and baking (which i do NOT do), but after i burn enough batches of cookies, i think i'll probably be off the hook.
Hopefully we'll have the bids and final drawings by early fall so we can start the actual construction. Speaking of, we'll most likely have to find a temporary home for Prancer. Any takers?? (Why do I only hear crickets chirping out there?)
