Buying our home

Our landlords have put our building up for sale. After much talk we made a bid, and got married.  Yeah, just like that.  Most common law has made marriage redundant, but in Ontario the laws for property are different, so we did it.  I texted my mom, " got married"  she texted back "if you are kidding I'll kill you, if you are serious I will kill you, then bring you back to kill you again".  Not sure how to reply to that.  Frankly with my mother never having been married I did not think it would be a big deal to her.  I mean, start to finish.... 25 minutes.

  4. You know, I can write a four page blog post about a single episode of Blues Clues. You cram marriage and house buying into a paragraph. I am new here...but I think there should be more! Analyze, man! Analyze! You're a blogger!

    1. He is that good that he can cram it all in one paragraph. Short and sweet! I wish I could be that concise sometimes. Congrats Jamie for all of it, and can I be friends with your mom? :)

    2. LMAO, That was analysed. Believe it or not it was how much thought went into it. In fact we probably would have done it the same day we decided to only C had to wait for his birth certificate that came two days later.
