Another friend of mine is in the counter-offer stage with his project in Merced. 

A project to be done in six-eight weeks is now a dirt lot almost eight months later.

I was a project lead on residential remodels but recently moved to a job in commercial construction to free up some mental bandwidth to be used for my own endeavors.
