The Best Laid Plans...

Waiting for our plans to be ready for submission to the Village's permit approval process seems more exhausting than waiting for our first son to be born (30 hours, but who's counting.) There are tree surveys and land surveys and topographical surveys and copies of plans and surveys that far exceed any multiple noun I can come up with (triplicate squared?) There is no blame to be placed or mis-placed here, just a process designed in the "hurry up and waste time" mode.
