We have a winner!
Feb. 23rd, 2015 03:42 pmWe asked to contracters to write a tender for placing two dormers on our house and replacing three window frames and the front door frame. Both entered and quoted a big difference in price. Since we really wanted the contracter to start before the summer, we discussed the pricing and the contracter who could start in time adjusted his tender. E is really good with reading and judging technical specifications in tenders, which saved us a lot of money (he came down 8.000 euro).
The good news is that in five or six weeks, the work will start.
The bad news: before five weeks are over, we need to clear the attic. The stuff needs to go somewhere, probably in my dance/craft room. I will probably not have my dance space while they are working and this bugs me big time. However, all for the greater good, right? I am financing the whole thing which is also a tad scary, as in we need to go to the notary to make it official. After all, we also went to the notary before getting married for prenupts.
In other news, the weather is getting warmer and I am looking forward to starting a vegetable and herb garden at the side of our house. I planted seeds in a tiny greenhouse in our windowsill and I am trying to come up with a planting plan. I want o finish my costuming projects in March and focus on the garden and performing in April-May-June.
