Holidays are stressful - unless you travel like me - without caring where or what gets done - other than something new :)

Lumber costs are crazy. I heard it is partly to do with fires in Canada a couple years ago - but not sure if that is true. Here, a friend estimated that if he had built his house now (he built through 2020), it would have cost him another 100K, just on wood. That is about 30% of the price!
