Holy shit! I bought a house

[history_gurl]

So, um, yeah, I know I haven't posted in forever. Long story short ... work, work and more work. But I've started a new(ish) job. Same field, human hours. I even have supper with my kids every day! This is a good thing, as they threatened to divorce me.

Seeing as work would no longer be providing me with the amount of stress I've become accustomed to ... I bought a house. It's 91 years old, and it's adorable. Five bedrooms, two bathrooms, garage, partially finished basement. And we love it. We move in April 30.

Here's a picture of the outside. Oh, about the snow? We've actually had about three times that much snow this year, but it keeps melting between storms. Thank god!




Wow, I can't believe I bought a house. Mostly because it means I have to start packing again. Argh!

PS - Five bedrooms means lots of room for visitors. Hint Hint aithine

Yes to the garage. It will even have room for the horse related stuff we seem to be accumulating.

Hmmm, Campbell seems to be the cheapest too. Good that you've had a good experience with them.

As for boxes, I'm just gonna start grabbing them from the liquor store and Tim Horton's to start. Might buy some from the movers too. We take possession April 30, so we've got a bit of time yet. (Yeah, right, it'll fly by, I know). But don't ditch those boxes just yet. :D

Don't worry, I'll hold onto whatever small-sized boxes suitable for book packing that I can find.

April 30 isn't too bad. The weather should be half-way decently warm by then, for instance! Having moved once in January, I don't recommend it.
