Trials and tribulations

Hmmmmm.

We should be into day three of excavation. Yes, yes. We should be.

There's just a little problem with obtaining permits. And finding that our current design doesn't meet current zoning regulations. (Of note, our lot as it was platted 80-some years ago also doesn't meet current zoning regulations. This is a bitter pill, I must say.) And trying to reach the architect who needs to make changes to the plans so we can meet the current zoning regulations and obtain the permits.

OMG. We haven't even started and we're behind schedule. I really thought we had escaped the ever-loving foot-dragging, now that Tom the Builder is running the show.
