New home
-
We are sitting at home (well, actually, mostly frantically packing) waiting for the lawyers to call and say the settlement is finished on our new home. It's the first time we've bought our own place (a townhouse), of course, we tell Mikey it's his :) This is really just a random rambling, but it's a pretty exciting event for us so I thought I'd share. It's a small place, but it's OURS :-D. What more could a family with a young toddler ask for? The only bad thing is it could apparently take up to 10 days to get connected over there. Surviving that will be quite a challenge, but distractions like taking Mikey to run about on the beach will probably get me through it :-D. I hope everyone has a good couple of weeks!

Congratulations, Megan! Hope the move goes smoothly for you.

Congrats, we just bought our first house a couple years ago. I hope you love your place at least as much as we love ours.

Congratulations Megan! Hope the shifting and the setting up of the new home will be hassle-free! Cheers Smitha

Congratulations Megan! I hope the move goes well. You do realise that once you live by the sea you'll never be able to move away from it again, don't you? ;)

There's probably a few folks in New Orleans and Malé that would disagree.

perhaps you will find a neighbor with an unsecured wireless access point to piggyback onto. ;) Steve

How much is he likely to grow in the next year?

In height quite a bit, although the weight slows down quite a lot - he's starting to look skinny (to my eyes :) ) already!

You moved to Glasgow?
Yes, I took possesion of my new home on Sept 5th. It is right in the city centre. I had to trade down in size, but my commute went from 1h45mins by train to 15mins on foot. I'm about 3 blocks from Central Station. View from my living room window[^] (Note I zoomed in on to the Skypark building - it isn't really that close)

It is. I'm lucky to be 6 storeys up. I did look at another flat that was on the 10th storey of one building. It was a nice building and they were in the process of regenerating the area, but until they completed the regeneration the street level was terrible. There was a strip club right across the street and it looked like the pub next door to it was approaching violent at 7 on a Wednesday evening. All that will be gone in 2 years, but until then I just didn't want the hassle. Even for a view directly down the river.
