It's been a week!

What a glorious weekend we're having!  Sunshine, temperatures in the low twenties and the snow is virtually all gone.  I think that Spring has finally arrived for good.  The three of us are enjoying a relaxing weekend.  After the week that we had, we felt that we both deserved some down time so we did nothing except go to the gym, a little bit of cooking and a walk with Cooper today.

This past week brought our fourth trip to Burlington, in as many weeks, in the pursuit of trying to find the perfect home.  No luck once again.  We continued to play the bidding war game but we didn't win.  Needless to say that anyone playing that game needs nerves of steel and insanely deep pockets. We're not cut out for this. On Thursday, we faced the reality that the only way to win is to spend more than we want to....and we are not prepared to do that.  So, we decided to think outside the box...and that we did.

This coming week, we will be going to Montreal and explore the real estate market in the West Island area.  I know, a huge decision but one that we have thought about seriously.  More on this in my next blog.

I guess it's safe to say that not much else is going on in our lives....we never anticipated that house hunting would turn out that way.  Perhaps things happen for a reason.

That's it for my news this week.  We will spend the rest of the day on the deck, pondering life in general and thinking about what this week might bring.

I hope your weather is as nice as ours and that you are enjoying it to the fullest.  I leave you with just a couple of photos...don't have much time for photography these days. I wish you all a great week!
