It doesnt matter. It will cost what it costs. We can hardly set a budget on lumber alone since that is a must have. So, I am not paying any attention to cost of lumber.

Meanwhile, we have still not paid our contractor a dime. He has a crew of men working for weeks now, plus a subcontractor who is digging out a foundation for new sunroom has done work.

One of these days I guess he will give us a bill. It is all very quaint. He must really trust us.
