House Hunting

A few weeks ago we contacted a realator and started looking for a house. The apartment was good for me when I was single, but getting married and moving in all of her belonging is putting a strain on our storage space. (She was at her parents' last week and found six (6!) boxes of book, and another couple bags of books. She weeded out about a third of them, but we still need to make room, somewhere, for all the rest.)

Our lease ends in a month, but I really don't think we'll find a place before then. We've looked at a few places, but none of them are quite right. One looked like a good deal, but it would take a lot of work (just minor things, but it adds up). I'm not much of a handy-man-fixer-upper-do-it-yourself-kinda-guy. It was a two-storey house with a full basement and a good-sized attic, and a nice yard, in a nice neighborhood not far from where we are now. I'd rather keep looking and see if we can find something a little newer.
