This is (hopefully, God willing) our new home. It is a half duplex on waddington. My father (Henry) made an appointment for Ian and me to see it on thursday. We loved it when we saw it, I especially loved it, the place felt like home instantly as I walked around it.
Funny story about this place and its previous owners. My aunt lived in THIS very house many years ago. The owner who is selling it now, I recognized when I saw her but I could not put a name to the face. Later as we were touring the house, I saw a cupboard with her kids names on it and I instantly remembered who she was. They are a quite well known family in the dentist office that I work in.
Anyways, so this house has a good size living room and kitchen, two bedrooms, one bathroom, a big rec-room downstairs, and a BIG laundry room that Ian wants to change into his new BIG shop. And the most wonderful part, a nice big, fenced yard for Dewie.
Another couple actually made an offer on this house on thursday and the owner called us to tell us about it. She said that she was holding them off until she heard from us because she really wanted us to have it! The awesome thing is, is that what Ian and dad and I were discussing what we were going to put down as an offer and it was higher than that other couple! ALRIGHT!!! So, what we really have to do now is figure out mortgage stuff (blah) and save, save, scrimp, and save for a down payment. Thank God for tax return. He he he.
We will have to see how things go. I really want this place. So please pray, pray, pray for us. I do not feel grown up enough for this. Oy vey.
