haggle

someone reminded me the other day that change often comes all at once. and it definitely seems we're in the middle of a change in seasons.

we put an offer in on a house yesterday and after some negotiation, the seller accepted our offer. so now we just need to complete our conditions and it's a done deal.

said house is up in kingscourt on hillcrest avenue. we're very happy. we really like that neighbourhood. it's a well-designed residential area still close to downtown, friends, amenities, bus routes, etc.

there's part of me that will miss this neighbourhood. but there's another part of me that's excited about being in a different place, and the opportunity expand my circle. i think it will be good for me to be further afield so my world doesn't grow too small or become navel gazing.

the house itself is lovely and i think it will suit us very well. it's more than double our current living space, which i suppose isn't saying much. it feels like our adult home for some reason. that's what comes to mind when i think of it.

moving day will be august 15!
