The Good News and the Bad News

The Bad:
I just heard from our architect that the sequence number for our building permit is #1040. The responsible person for processing the building permits is currently working on #960. (Remember that this is the same guy who was on vacation for a few weeks and then just took a week off sick.)

The Good:
Our architect convinced the responsible person to take a look at our application (which has been quickly reviewed once already) next week (when he finishes with the one he is on now). Possibly we may also receive a partial permit so that at least we can start building the cellar. Our architect thinks that when permit approver sees how well organized and correctly completed our applicaiton is that he might just grant us the permit anyway. Everyone keep your fingers crossed for us!!

In other news: The woman who rented us her garage has moved into an old folks home and I have to take everything out of the garage by the end of December. How annoying. Luckily I only have a few bicycles and a full set of tires in there.
