4/24/08 The Delay

Our city design review committee will recommend our remodeling plans to be approved! They want to notify our neighbors first, so we can submit for permits after May 12. Great!

....Wait a second...May 12?!

We first tried to submit April 7! This extra design review is costing us a full 5 weeks. Then, after we submit, it's another 4-6 weeks to get the permits. That brings us to mid-June -- just in time for our summer visit back East.

This is never, ever going to happen. It's all a big joke someone's playing on me. I'm never going to have a new kitchen.
