New House


This is my new house! Both sides have agreed to the conditions so now it is just a matter of satisfying them. They had finished the basement but the electrical panel was in the washroom, which is not acceptable according to electrical code. So, they have agreed to re-do the bathroom so that the panel is no longer in the room. I couldn't be happier since that is the only issue we had with the place. I love this house! I don't know how many viewings we've done in the last 3 months but it was a lot and this house just stood out to me right away. It has some quirks, but they are all quirks I am fine with (except the panel not being code compliant!).

We now have one week to get the inspection done and our insurance and financing finalized. It seems so fast! Of course, work is crazy busy lately AND I have physio to go to three mornings next week. Ah, life.

Yipeee!

Quick post because I am behind in "important" (to me) updates.

My cast is off. Yep, good and gone! I went in for a follow up and new x-rays. The doctor says he could no longer see the fracture. It seems very fast healing to me but I'm not going to argue! I am starting physiotherapy tomorrow to repair the sprain. I am hoping I can make my lesson next week :) I will, of course, follow the advice of the therapist because it is better to work for long-term gain. I can't help but hope though. It feels like forever since I was on a horse...I go hug & sniff the last saddle pad I used once in awhile. It's sad, really. Soon.

I am about to make an offer on my first house purchase!!!! I am so excited and also terrified. But it is perfect and the yard is huge and it is not-quite-too-late to move my vegetables to a proper garden. My tummy is all twisty-turny. It's good though. Soon!
