Remember how last week I said that D and I were looking at houses again? Well we found one... and we are putting an offer on it tonight.
We spent the majority of the last week looking at homes. Thursday we met with a realtor to help us see inside the homes we've been interested in. Saturday we viewed 5 homes and on Sunday we drove by some more homes on our own. Monday (Family Day in Alberta) we viewed 2 more homes and found the one we're putting an offer on.
Seems a bit fast, even for me, but I think it's the right thing to do. It has everything we wanted in it (except that it's not a semi-bungalow but that wasn't really on the list... it was more my secret wish). It has a huge backyard which will be great for dogs, and it has an unfinished basement that we can develop into more living space. It also has a small room I can turn into an actual writing office, which is awesome. After looking for a couple months last year during peak times and almost a month this year, D and I have seen well over 30 properties. While it still needs some work, this is the best home we've seen.
Now that I've let you all know what's new in my world I will give you the pathetic word count for the week (remember, I was looking for a home):
Word Count (Feb 11th - Feb 18th)
Wednesday - 760 words on Ice Debt
Hope you all have a fantastic writing day. I will keep you posted as things develop.
Cheers,
Tina

Good luck with the house offer!
Is it on the south side?
No, it's actually on the North Side. The South Side is more expensive and unfortunately we can't afford to buy there.
But this house is near the LRT so it's quick to get downtown.
Thanks for the luck. I'll need it.
