New Home

that's right my friends. Drew and I are moving to Nicola street. Exactly one block from where we live now.
It wasn't a planned move. We are quite happy here in our little place. It happened because I was bored 2 days ago and surfing kijiji.com like always. and there it was..... a cheap 2 bedroom with hardwood and it was brand new. I e-mailed and told them we were interested (without Drew knowing) told them about all of our wonderful pets. After getting a response saying that they weren't interested in renting to anyone with pets.... Me being as adorable as I am..... persuaded him into meeting us and the dogs. The new land lords loved us and the dogs! We had to fight out a bunch of other people looking for the place. But we did it! we move in on the 25th of this month!
It was a very unexpected thing. But I think its for the best.
It has a huge back yard, which is ours!!! gas stove, hardwood, 1200ish square feet, high ceilings, a garage for storage, en suite laundry (front loading), and has 2 bedrooms! all for 1050 a month!
The place was made last October and is fully sound proofed. (yes I asked)
The kitchen is quite small, but with a portable dishwasher and a freezer we should be able to create more counter space.
Oooh get this.... there is like 10 windows!!!!!! the place we live now only has 2. The windows have screens and open all the way. No gates to go threw and only one door to enter.... Wow. I can't imagine what that will be like. right now I have to go threw 3 yard gates and then 3 doors to get into my place.
I"m thinking a BBQ will be in order mid September. We will be in the new place for a very long time.

  1. Sounds like a great place! Rent is definitely a lot cheaper where you are. When we rented an apartment last year it was almost 1800 a month for a 2 bedroom 2 bath. No laundry machines, no yard, just a small patio. Good luck in your new home!
