I hear your frustration loud and clear, Jenny! My dh is the same, he can do anything - from digging a foundation, doing electrical and plumbing to laying down exquisite diagonal tile in a foyer. But since he's in construction all day, that's the last thing on his mind when he gets home. He's such a sweetheart though that I've learned to live with it. And I've figured out his time schedule; when he says "I think I'll do such & such", I can plan on that such & such to take three years almost to the day.

I don't have a doll room and have mixed feelings about it. For me, I'm so active in real life, I would probably never go in a doll room. I like the way my dolls fit into my life. They come to me, I don't go to them. So sometimes they're by my computer, sometimes in the dining room or living room.
They don't all stay together either because of space restrictions so they live kinda "vignette lifestyles" by posing in little scenarious around the house. The dolls seem more real to me when they enter my world rather than me entering theirs. I don't know if that made sense. But perhaps you can think of an alternate way to enjoy your dolls instead of waiting for their room to be built.
Hmmm, that gives me an idea. What would your husband think if the dolls decided to take matters into their own hands? You wouldn't say a word to your dh but he would come home one day and see the girls in the corner seriously looking over some plans and paint chips. Then a couple days later he would come home and see the dolls rummaging around in his work shop. The day he saw the dolls with saws and hammers might let him know how anxious they are to get their own space? [img]wink.gif[/img]
