Not a lot to say today, sorry to those who are looking for entertainment. I do have one update for those who have been following.
Yesterday on our way into the city for grocery shopping, we stopped to get the mail and found a letter from the town office. In a very short, formal message it told us that we essentially lost our appeal on our deck permit 🙁 It does say, though, that one of the guys on the council will be contacting us to meet and discuss the details. The details likely being that we will be allowed to build our deck separate from our house and then would not require the piles. If I’m correct and this is the case, it means that they called our inspector, he confirmed his stipulations, and they don’t want to step on his toes. This is all just what I’m suspecting. I could be wrong, and I’ll be interested to see how the meeting goes with the guy from the town council. Frankly, at this point I just want it to be over! I don’t care how we have to build the stinkin’ thing, I just want to have the meeting so we can build the deck before Dekker’s birthday! And as soon as the deck is built, we want to build our picnic table. And a few chairs. So we have a deadline and a lot to accomplish before then! Grrr! What a hassle.
I’m going to end this anxty post with an adorable picture of my son, because it just makes it better. This is him saying “I don’t care about the deck mommy, I’ll turn one either way!”
