Apartment hunting...

This week is all about finding a place to live  We should be on international house hunters because we sure sound like the people on that show!  Initially we just started looking on the web for possible 2 bedroom/2 bathrooms with a nice patio and then setting up appointments to see them.  We would keep narrowing it down to the top two and go on.  Saturday we decided to set up a few apartments to look at, but also go to some open "inspections".   Inspections are 15 minutes long.  Period.  If you're interested you queue up and look with everyone else. So we show up to the first one too late to go in, but the agent drove us to his second showing. This was a new apartment the size of my living room and dining room....2 bedroom/2 bath mind you. So we walked back to the ferry to find the next one. We were not having a lot of luck, and believe me when I say that I'm not looking for anything big, I just want to be able to not touch all walls when standing in the middle of the room!  We decide to go to the sports bar in Bulimba to talk over our top 2 choices while watching the Orioles play. Sounded reasonable to us!  After the 7th inning we decide on the apartment we will rent which will allow us to move right in..we celebrate our decision with another beer!!  Dave is relieved... And we set up to go on Monday to sign the lease  Then we get an email today (Sunday) from the apartment complex we LOVE that had no openings, but now they will the middle of November ...oh bloody hell!  We are in the process to look at the apartment before Monday afternoon to see if it's really what we want and I have a feeling we might hit the sports bar again....lol.  I'll keep you posted....toodles!
