Progress

Well, I did get a good surprise today, as it turns out. The most recent draft of our house plan came back from the draftsman today, and it is the closest to what we actually want of any of the plans we have received so far. It still needs to be tweaked a bit, but we feel like we are moving in the right direction. We still have no idea when any actual building will take place, but this certainly has to be taken care of first--and has to be right--before we can move on. A couple of weeks ago, we felt like we were moving backward, so forward progress is definitely a good thing. Stay tuned in the coming months for the rest of the story.
