[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] None of it is criticism. You seem to have started all this by renovating and talking about future projects, so people are going to ask, merely to be polite. We gut-renovated the ground floor of our very old and ramshackle house, but didn't touch the upper floor. We told people we were done. No one has ever commented since. Also, you seem OBSESSED with the state of your home, and I'm prepared to bet all this originates with your attitude. [/quote] A polite way to make conversation would be to say, "Wow, the new windows look great! Any other projects on the horizon?" That's more polite and well-meaning than "When are you going to get around to changing this carpet?" or "When will you change the paint color in the dining room?" Come on, people. We all know the difference. [/quote]
