i got the quote for my spiffy new porch. it's about 25% above what i thought it would be (and what i can currently afford).

choices: 1. pay it anyways and figure out where to pull that kind of money out of my ass. 2. put it off till i can afford it (some time next year). 3. start negotiating and see if there's a way to drop the price (for instance, moving from trex to mahogany or douglas fir for much of teh wood part).

*sigh*

yeah. the delaying option is to have someone fix the stairs so they'll be usable thru the whole winter and be frugal and get the money and plan on doing the work after the spring thaw.
