My very first lesson learned.

There is a big difference in perception when buying the house and actually owning your house. This is not a bad thing just that a lot of the plans we made had to be adjusted and not a single project I wanted to do will work as expected. When we were in the process of buying the house we didn't measure much or take notice of every detail. I was also guilty of making most of my plans from inaccurate memories of our house. So all projects are canceled until a proper plan is made.
