Even more interesting and surprising was the use of the name "Mr. Bechtel" for the stable master in the book. While I have no illusions that you took his name to use after we had communicated earlier about another book, please allow an old man the happy thought that perhaps you did. In all my years of reading this genre of books, the name has never been included. Needless to say, if it was by design or by accident, I was very pleased. I no longer need to seek "revenge" on you for the various other plot twists I have enjoyed while reading your books. Continued good luck and success. Mr. Bechtel, in person Dear Julia,

Surely you meant kitchen AND bathroom. Doing 2 rooms is very stressful. Try flipping a house with a budget of zero when the house is damaged and there are necessary to the stud repairs. Know anyone with $30,000 they want to give away? Then we can get this house done and on the market, finally. Kelly W. – A kitchen remodel in the bathroom? Surely you meant kitchen AND bathroom.

I went to visit a friend who started her six figure remodel by wanting a double oven in the kitchen. Since then, bathrooms, living areas, and outdoor stuff has been completely remodeled. Hair...very frizzy. Doesn't show so bad there, but trust me :-) Hahaa…thanks! I went to visit a friend who started her six figure remodel by wanting a double oven in the kitchen.

Long story, but it looks as if one bathroom will get a makeover before the kitchen. Yes I can see how distracting it can be, and I'm not on deadline. Good luck with everything.
