We got the demolition permit today, construction permit is tomorrow morning, and tomorrow afternoon, they are going to start pouring piers. We were not meant to close on the loan today. First we went to the bank. This is not where you go, you go to the title company. Then, when we were less than halfway through the paperwork, Ace shows up hugging a big box of Cheese Nips (orange hat and shirt to match) and notices that our bank put the wrong amount on the loan. Lame. And too late to fix it today. Better luck tomorrow. Ace stopped by this morning to pick up the last of the permitting paperwork. He needed a pic of what was to be demolished, and we didn’t have a pic of the carport and storage readily available, so he ran over and took one. So I took the paper over to the bank today. I dropped it off with the sweet lady at the front desk. She’s sweet, but I have issues about this kind of stuff. I want it to be like in a movie where she jumps up and runs it to the proper person immediately, while the entire foyer full of people breaks into a song-and-dance number focused on the song-and-dance routine of remodeling a house and the bureaucratic paper process that naturally accompanies. Maybe there is even someone dressed up as “the paper,” kind of like Bill up on Capital Hill in the old Schoolhouse Rock cartoon. Ugh. This is exactly as addictive as I thought it would be. My headache says, “Go to bed,” but I just keep measuring stuff. |
