After patiently, (well not really), waiting almost two weeks to hear back from the Village Manager and City Council, I got this email late yesterday:
Chris
I have now had some advice from the city council which I have looked over, it appears the same advice given when the window was installed at number 42. However, as your window is larger and two studs will be removed, they commented on the lintel size to spread the weight and also the requirement for a sill to be installed with sealing to the newly exposed brick work (on the sides).
As you are having a registered builder complete the task, the colour and aluminium profile matches the existing windows there will be no issue on our part.
You should therefore have this in by year end.
WHOOP WHOOP! I have WRITTEN permission to get my new window. I am beyond thrilled to bits. It is going to make such a positive difference to my work space... both in summer, and winter.
I have already asked Steve to order the window, and he will project manage the whole process.
It is so neat having a registered builder/Operations Manager in the family.
What an excellent way to end the week. It's been such a good week too.
Today I am going to walk up the hill, pick up my car, then go down to the craft group until mid afternoon.
I am going to make something... not sure what yet. But you can be sure I'll be productive. And happy.
ONWARD...
It is now 2.30 pm. I went down to the Craft room at 9.30 and sewed. I had company the entire time which was lovely.
I'm home. I'm taking a break. I will pack things up for tomorrow's market a bit later on.
Stew and I are going to our favourite Indian Restaurant for dinner... I'm really looking forward to it. I just hope I can do justice to the meal. I can always bring some home in a 'doggy bag' if not.
I should sleep well tonight, with a full tummy.
We still have a damn cold, blustery wind, I hope like hell it's not this cold and windy tomorrow.
Lots of wind is even worse than rain at a market.
Right, that's me for the day, I'm dog tired and won't be too late into bed tonight.
Catch ya tomorrow.
Fantastic news for you

Just a comment and a question on your previous post.
ReplyDeleteYour higher glp dose may be altering your alcohol tolerance. So you might want to be aware of that especially as you increase your dosage.
And I was wondering what they do at your doctor’s appointment? Do they check your blood levels , weigh you in, or just ask you how you are feeling?
Just curious why they make you go in.
Good luck with your new window! Christine in Kansas
I don't have much 'tolerance' to alcohol at the best of times! Two glasses of wine has always been about my limit. At the Doctors appointment they ask for your weight. They check my blood pressure (always good nowdays) and generally just suss out how the drug is affecting you. I've only had a couple of mornings feeling a bit nauseous since going up to 1 mg, and that was the day after the injection. So I expect I will feel a bit 'off' tomorrow morning as well. You have to go in to get the higher dose, and to have your blood pressure taken. Once I'm on the highest dose, if things go well I probably won't need to go in so often.
DeleteCan you do Teddy bear placemats 😊
ReplyDeleteI will look around for Teddy Bear fabric for you.
DeleteOoohh ... those kiwi placemats are super cute! Can you please let me know the price ... I might have to buy a couple for my friend's upcoming birthday 😀
ReplyDeleteThey are $10 each, plus postage.
DeleteCan I please have two? Will email you for payment details.
DeleteMaggie Melb Au. I love the borders on both of those places mats, the plain colours highlight the pattern on them.
