... when we last saw our intrepid explorers,

[jbailey]

they were hanging out in California. Being warm. (That's Angie's comment. I'm still wearing sandals. Although I saw a Montrealer shudder at me today. That was worth it. I think I'll keep wearing them all week, even if it causes me to lose my toes)

but.. BUT! that's not the exciting part!

This is: http://www.realtor.ca/PropertyResults.aspx?Mode=5&id=1487634

This evening we accepted the counter-offer on the place.

The timeline so far: arrived Saturday, looked at places 10:30 Sunday morning. Made offer 7pm. They made a counter-office at 8:30pm. We accepted the counter-office at 6:30pm today.

Next up: Review property agreement. Find someone to sign all the paperwork for us when we're out of town. Pray that CMHC aren't rat bastards. Inspection on Saturday at 1pm.

Oh, and none of this includes going to the house party on Saturday night, the last minute finding of a hotel as our friend's place had a pipe burst where we were going to stay. Finding out that another friend had a place to stay. Me forgetting my laptop at the hotel. We saw the midwife this morning. And I went to work today.

Sometimes I think that Aikido Rondori has nothing on my life. =)

We looked at a place on Boyer which would've been lovely for two or three of us. Four just wouldn't have worked in any way. Ah well. Two blocks from our old place is good enough. :)

It went to a search page before, now it works! Looks lovely. What's the sq ft?

[jbailey.livejournal.com]

1700sq ft on two floors

Hard to think the 3 or 4 years ago we were in a one room 550sq ft apartment :)
