Saw a few more houses today

The first house we saw was in memremcook, nice location, elevated enough not to worry about flooding, but oh my, how the floors are crooked, they all have their own slope facing diferent direction. can't hold it against them that the bed was in the dining room right off the living room, there come an age when steps are not an option, even when all the bedroom are up there. i suppose it's still better then the one with the dead mouse in it, yeah. pretty interresting houses we've been seeing. no wonder i started considering building new again.

the second house we saw today was so nice, i think it was the nicest we saw so far overall. maybe not the nicest house in absolute. but in very good condition with enough room, and some out building that are not treatening to fall like most other one we saw. the barn was actualy very nice and sturdy too. and had some inabitant so Owen had the chance to make is first encounter of the bovine kind. he also had a chance to see a real piano for the first time. make me regret selling mine. he seemed to like it.

the third one was nice too, mostly but had a muddy basement and altho we thought it had 200 acres of wood land, it was only near the house that there was wood, behind that, it was all cut. and the house burn 12 cords of wood, wich a lot. and on the way to this house, i found out that we had forgotten the diaper bag at home :

how can we forget such a thing? with a toddler and a 8 months old? oddly enough, she kept fairly dry and didn't want to eat either. all it seem she made a big fuss about is that she was too warmly bundled. the whole weat rolls i bought at the big stop irving was a good investment though. kept our stomack from grumbling and Owen in a good mood the whole trip.

Now if we can only find a happy medium between afordability and our dreams. that will be great. or maybe we just need to win the lottery :p unless i can get in a good business oportunity that i could do at home, that would be sweet.

Chantal, house hunting continue
