OK, it gets worse - really.
On sixth thought, why not a second bathroom, in the garage, so folks won't have to tramp upstairs with dirty shoes (obviously, a concern voiced by my "significant other", aka "the boss"). On seventh thought, why not wood floors upstairs (red oak, 3/4" thick, 3 coats of varnish), and tiled bathrooms? On eighth thought, why not a washer/dryer in the garage in case someone spends the weekend? On nineth thought, how about a water filtration system in case someone objects to the slight "country" flavor of our 200 foot well water (might taint the ice cubes someone will add to their glass of scotch)? On tenth thought, why stick with the South Carolina coastal building codes (150 mph wind resistance, as in hurricanes), and instead use the more stringent North Carolina 200 mph coastal codes (every darn stud, roof truss and the like is strapped down; the concrete block walls have re-bar in every cranny, and all holes and air spaces are topped off with concrete; the foundation is 4' deep, 3' wide, on very firm/dry soil, and has enough rebar to alter compass readings in the area; metal roof instead of shingles). Yada yada yada.

Remember, "honey, I just want a dry place to put my tractor" - my original intention - to which my wife said "sure, but, honey, as long as we're at it, I've a few ideas" ----- you'd think that after 29 years of marriage, I would have seen this coming, but no -----
