We Have a (Rental) House!

September 12th, 2008 -- Posted in The Rental | 4 Comments »

Happy days! Nick and are about to move into a 3-bedroom house 2 blocks from the beach! We’ve rented our own place, and are now in the process of moving.

The new house has a big backyard with an old bird avery - just the thing to hopefully put a few chickens into in the near future…

So, we have a busy weekend ahead of us, using my parents’ 4WD and trailer to move all our stuff out of the share house and over to the new one - about a 45 minute drive. The new place is a little closer to where I work, and further out of the city. It’s in a nice, quiet suburb near the water, and we’re both looking forward to having our own place at last.

I’m so looking forward to building a home. I had my own home with my ex-partner for many years, so being in a share house again was difficult. Once you’re used to having control over all your space, it’s hard to give that up. The idea of having our own place is so exciting! I’ll have to post some photos once we’ve gotten ourselves organised :)
