I know it was kind of a tease to just give you a thumbnail, but here’s the thing…I haven’t actually even seen it yet.
Take a minute to digest that little nugget.
Yes. I bought a house in the Toronto suburbs while holed up in my sick bed in Atlanta. I would have been on a plane the second we began the negotiation process, but since queasiness and I are not a good combination on a good day, I figured the last place I should probably be is on an airplane. But, here’s the thing. I told our agent exactly what I wanted.
A nice kitchen. (Bonus: Stainless steel appliances and dark wood.)
A backyard that isn’t postage-stamp sized (Bonus: If I can’t see into our back neighbors’ bedroom, it’s a WIN. We had very large, very uninhibited neighbors. It was not pretty.) It’s big! It overlooks the ravine and no naked people! I mean, granted there is a kind of scary shed that the husband says is for things like lawn mowers and other outdoor trinkets, but I have seen all the horror movies…I know that sheds are the thing of nightmares.
Lots of windows! Lots of open space! Molding! Pillars!
A finished basement.
I think she delivered, don’t you?
I am putting the husband on an airplane this morning to be there for the inspection. But, honestly, it’s really so he can take some more pictures for you all me.
