I am not sure if this should go in DIY or relationships!
So my husband has told me not to talk about this anymore but I feel we are making a HUGE mistake and need to vent.
The background
We are in Japan and just bought a second hand house. House not retain their value only land here, so any money spent on the house won?t be recouped.
The kitchen and bathroom need replacing. My husband wants mid range bathroom , heated flooring for the kitchen and living room .
I said let?s live in it and see what needs doing and do it up gradually. This has turned into let?s do the bathroom, flooring and leave the kitchen( until an un specified time). The kitchen is old and it will be taken out and put back in for the flooring to go in! I would like flooring but am happy to wait.
The problem is the bathroom is in the wrong place and the kitchen is way too dark. It has one slit window that is below my eye height! So every where I look is wall and darkness. It has two skylight windows.
The lay out at the moment is North wall and east so it goes. North kitchen along , Bathroom, toilet and living room . Running across the East wall. The living room has a South facing window. The rest are all internal walls.
I think is should be bathroom, toilet kitchen/living combined.
To put in the new bathroom we have to break one wall anyway. I know moving the waste and gas isn?t going to be cheap but we are installing gas as well.
BUT I ask him to get a quote for swapping the rooms round and he said that the reform company haven?t got back to him. We complete on the 20th of feb and they will start installing the bathroom after that.
I really want to talk about it and he is stone walling me WHAT DO I DO???
