Advent, Day 1

[wiseheart]

The official beginning of Advent brought us an unpleasant surprise: there was strong rain in the night, and the balcony is leaking again. *sigh* So we've paid an obscene amount of money for the insulation work and went through the whole bothersome process for only half a result. I am not happy.

Other than that, I've baked another three sorts of cookies - we're approaching the fancy kinds now, and I'm looking forward to the decoration.

You have to be adamant to get the balcony in order by the people who did the renovation! A refund won´t help you!

Unfortunately, it's leaking where the side window has been installed 26 or so years ago. I think it's likely that the stuff they fixed the window with has become porose in the years in-between due to the very hot sunshine we get every summer. Where the wall was leaking has been fixed, it seems... although I'm getting anxious about that, too.

Oh no, I'm so sorry about your balcony.

It is annoying, but there was a slight possibility that it might happen. It's probably the side window, and that wasn't what they were working on.

Oh no, I”m sorry to hear that your balcony is still leaking!

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we're not happy about it.

Oh man, the frelling balcony.

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

That about sums it up, yes.

Oh how annoying — and frustrating.

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

It is. Part of why we voted for the insulation was the hope that it would take care of the leakage...

Aaaargh! The balcony from hell.

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Yep. *sigh*

Oh sorry to hear about the balcony woes. Not a great time of year either.
