We will actually do it this time?

Well, I have studied our costs and have some more data.

The expected cost is roughly $45k and our budget was $3ok.

The three other times that we killed the kitchen project was when the magic spreadsheet was way over $30k (see post "Prologue and History").


I posted earlier about the scope creep, and I can claim approx $13k from items that were not in our original plan or things that we upgraded.

We have three options
- Do it at the full cost and realize that we want those items for personal satisfaction that we will be living here for a while (we think)
- Do it at the reduced cost and reduced satisfaction. Still an upgrade but not our first choice on some items.
- Kill it again and probably never do it!

We are leaning toward doing it, but there will be more to follow.
