Did we really just buy a house?

Yes, I think we really did!  

Went to see the property on Friday morning, we loved it, and had a contract signed by morning tea.  So, for the next couple of weeks I'm going to be on tender hooks, waiting for the day I can pick up the key and move away from my noisy neighbours from hell!

We're now waiting for the pest and building inspections to be completed (fingers crossed), then we have a couple of weeks for the contract to go through, but if all goes to plan I'll soon be posting pics - here and on IG - from my new house!  I can't begin to tell you how excited I am about this.

At odd times of the day - and night - it pops into my head and I begin mentally placing furniture, what plants go where, how the garden might one day look.  I can also begin to plan for some places to take my book-ish photographs in as well.  {hint: there is a huge expanse of small plants growing on farmland behind my block so I expect some amazing sunset inspired pics}

I still feel like it's not real.  I just can't believe it's happening.  Again, so excited.  Really looking forward to giving notice to my landlord and escaping the rental rat-race for my own little ¼ acre piece of paradise!

So until this is all sorted out, I don't think I'll have much time to sit down and read, or blog.  Will be spending hours just sorting through and boxing up my 3 large (and 3 smaller) bookcases for the move as well as organizing all the other thousand and one details that also need to be attended to when one moves.

It's really happening!  Somebody, just pinch me! 🏡

Until next time,
