The place we&#8217;re in is fine, but it&#8217;s a little small, and we&#8217;re getting to that point in our lives where we&#8217;d like to live somewhere a little nicer. The roadblock has been that we ideally want to stay in the same area. When I say &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/?ie=UTF8&amp;ll=49.281314,-123.009603&amp;spn=0.006733,0.013304&amp;t=h&amp;z=16\" target=\"_blank\">the same area<\/a>&#8220;, what I mean is the two block by five block area surrounded by Albert on the north, Pender on the south, Willingdon on the east, and MacDonald on the west. We were hoping to find a new-ish townhome or duplex or something like that. This definitely limited our options, and I must say, I was starting to get discouraged. There were countless &#8220;brand new&#8221; condo units at SFU and near Brentwood, but those places aren&#8217;t Burnaby Heights.<\/p>\n<p>However, today, I found it. The place where I REALLY want us to live until we get our own place. I&#8217;m so excited!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"The Tramonto\" href=\"http:\/\/www.tramonto.ca\" target=\"_blank\">THE TRAMONTO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here is the craigslist ad:\u00c2\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/vancouver.en.craigslist.ca\/apa\/765760922.html\">http:\/\/vancouver.en.craigslist.ca\/apa\/765760922.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We have an appointment to meet with the landlady tomorrow evening. I&#8217;m SO excited!! I think the unit we&#8217;re looking at is floor plan F. It has a dishwasher, a wine fridge, a washer and dryer, and a deck where we can put a grill! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! The landlady sounds nice and seemed quite happy to hear that it would just be the two of us living in her apartment and not &#8220;four people&#8221; or &#8220;a couple with 3 children&#8221;. Did I mention that I&#8217;m excited?<\/p>\n<p>So, cross your fingers that she&#8217;ll like us and let us live there!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update by Greg:<\/strong> Kat&#8217;s looking at it tomorrow night while I&#8217;m teaching.\u00c2\u00a0 My instructions to her: &#8220;I don&#8217;t care if it smells like cheese, I want to live there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update by Kat: <\/strong>I saw it. I loved it. I put a deposit down!!!! \ud83d\ude42 We will be living at the Tramonto in August! \ud83d\ude00 Oh, and I was initially wrong. The unit is floor plan C, which means that it&#8217;s on the north side of the building, and therefore quite quiet. The deck also has gas plumbing for a grill. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So since I&#8217;ve been back, I&#8217;ve been looking for a new place for us to live.
