Starting the Virtual House Hunting Again!

 

The Joys of House Hunting

 

I stopped looking at houses on mls.ca for a while which has now changed to realtor.ca.  Firstly I must say how much they have improved the site, a big thumbs up from me.

 

Most of the houses I have seen and like unfortunatley don't come with garages.  These people must have cars surley.  I don't know if I am being stupid but I thought that if we left the car outside it would freeze over and not start in the morning.

 

I know that you can plug your cars in over there to keep them warm over night but just how many people do that I wonder.  Is there really any need?  Are the cars more hardy in Canada? 

 

The other option is to have a garage built, I was just looking at some websites but of course there are no price lists which is fustrating to say the least.

 

The houses that I have been looking at come with parking pads which are round the back and they are all in an area I like, when we went to Edmonton our realtor took us round and I fell in love with a house but it got sold.  I was a little upset about that I must say.

 

Please let the perfect house come on the market for us I'm begging....... please.

 

Strange Dreams...

Last night I had one of the worst nights sleeps since getting over my cold the other week.  I must have woken up about four time in the night.

 

I was having really strange dreams one of the things I remember is the dogs tails dropping off, what in gods name does that mean.  I might google it in a minute as it was quite disturbing.

 

Neil said he woke me up at one point and asked me if I was alright but I couldn't remember him doing that, apparently I was talking in my sleep!  He couldn't make out what I was saying though.

 

Then a few minutes later I started laughing and I couldn't stop.  I did wake up at this point, probally startled Neil but I have now idea what it was I was laughing at as I just can't remember that part of my dream.

 

How very odd, I'm going to search to see what my dream means, poor Harvey.

Block Heater

I have to admit to not even knowing my first car had a block heater. I found it this summer and since handing it back last week I had no chance to use it. The car started fine for the last three winters without it.

I don't know if my new car has one either, I better look I suppose :~D

Cars in Canada

If you plan to move to Edmonton there is a strong possibility your car will have a factory installed block heater but many, probably most houses in Edmonton have a garage and you should be seeking such. You should make contact with an Edmonton realtor and provide him/her with your residence requirements and they will seek out requisite properties for you.
