Ok, so my last post was about 2 things: Tina and Cody, and our househunting.
As far as the first goes, you've probably heard by now that Tina and Cody have decided to get a divorce. Cody has moved out back to his parent's in Strath for now, and will either take a job locally, or is looking into a restaurant gig of some sorts in eastern Canada.
Tina is moving into a house with a friend, who consequently just lost his place as well, so is buying a house where Tina is to be his tenant. Last I heard, she'll be teaching spanish classes in Brandon for another year at least, and then might look at moving to Vancouver.
They've already managed to find a buyer for their trailer, I'm not sure who is getting to keep the car they just bought.
Lisa graduates in a year, and has been looking at taking the Web Design program at the College here in Prince George. Rob and I have offered her a place to stay if that's what she chooses, and it works out especially well now.
The offer we put on a house yesterday has been accepted (after mucho bartering) and we go down to sign the final papers after Rob gets off work today. It's VERY exciting for several reasons: It's in an extremely high end, up-scale neighborhood, just being where it is increases its value. The price we got it for is a steal, when compared to how much it would be worth with some cosmetic repairs. It has absolutely everything we wanted in a home (fenced yard for binx, deck, finished basement, close to schools, etc) . Not to mention being walking distance to the college, and has a separate entrance to the basement, perfect for a young student, n'est pas?
I was very upset when someone beat us to the house on Kenworth St, when we called to put an offer on it, they had just accepted an offer. Well, we got this place for 1k cheaper, isn't 10 mins out of town, and is over 600 square feet larger.
