Lift off!

We have permits!

Jesse went down to the Development Services office after a disconcerting phone call this morning (something about us needing to do changes and we had to resubmit everything...) and just called with the news!

Somehow he managed to fix everything! Well - he always does.

The only sad thing is that I don't have pictures of our plans to show you all because our internet it still not functioning at home (I'm taking a lunch break at work right now.) I can't wait to post them - Jesse and the plan guy did a fantastic job on them -- and they're BLUE - real blueprints!!!

Another thing that is a favorite of mine that I can't show you a picture of right now is our new toilet paper holder. Jesse special ordered it in a brushed nickel finish to match the rest of our bathroom. He installed it before I got home yesterday (it recesses into the wall) and looks amazing! I was getting a back-ache twisting around behind me every time I needed toilet paper and once again J swooped in and fixed everything.

I also realized that we didn't even notice that a month in the house had gone by (we closed on the 26th and our first night in the house was the 27th of March.) It's been quite the ride so far. In some ways it feels like so much longer than a month and in other ways it feels like we just got there.

Here's to one month down and a gajillion to go.
