We have had a pretty rough ride aswell and house isn't even started. Re: Who else is losing sleep over building their house??? 17Jul 29, 2009 5:25 pm My approach has been to buy the land, choose the plan, do the selections* then run away to london till the project is finished. That way I can lay awake thinking about other things. Like planning my next euro trip & the fact that the AUD$ is very strong right now meaning my £ is weaker * I admit i left my wife back in Aus to do the selections on her own, but she did a great job and is now in London with me Re: Who else is losing sleep over building their house??? 18Jul 29, 2009 7:17 pm Another natural insomniac who is finding it extra hard right now. But I've had added complications, so I guess it goes with the territory. I do have some sleeping tablets, but haven't used them yet, as it's usually too late by the time I realise I need them! I'll just stick with the heavy-duty painkillers for now.

I confess I've had dreams of house designs/plans. I have spent countless hours on this forum and am bordering on having an addiction. Now I am stressing over what our site costs will be, which we will know in 2 weeks. This will determine how much we have to spend on our wish list. It's the waiting that is killing us, or should I say just me. DP is not fazed at all....why do us women tend to make all of the decisions about this stuff......time for another wine.
