I'm familiar with that feeling Brant. Whining is my forte this week!

I'm in the same boat. My back/neck is screwed up and my car's broken and I am experiencing my first instance of scope creep at the house on one of the projects. Gonna be a very long and very expensive summer getting that place in shape.

I'm annoyed at our retarded IT group. They did a remote forced uninstall of a program I don't even have (how hard is it to check the registry for install keys ), and part of that uninstall was a reboot with no warning. Focking great strategy, retards.

I'm doubly annoyed because the reboot caused me to loose my last read post markers for about 300 threads.

I'm wondering what "scope creep' is?

I'm telling dave that scope creep is a term for when a project either expands or shifts focus to something slightly different. For example, when you have a project to replace the kitchen faucet and end up replacing the plumbing and sink under it as well, that is scope creep.
