Am I crazy?

I have a lot of other posts planned - Tabby's new desire for playtime in the middle of the night, reviews of my bugaboo and my babyhawk carrier, how to make your own broths for homemade soups if you don't already, more about cloth diapering, all kinds of stuff.

But I really only have one thing on my mind right now.  You see, a couple weeks ago I got it into my head that what we need to do is sell our current house and buy one with a suite we can rent out.  Why not let someone else build equity for us too, right?

So, we got our favourite Victoria realtor (Hi Bobby!) to set up one of those great listing things for us so we could get a sense of what our place might be worth, and what might be available in the price range we're looking at.  And we did some drive bys, went to a couple open houses... and then the other day one came up that I think is perfect.  PERFECT.

Now, we haven't even met with our mortgage person yet so very likely this house won't still be available by the time we're ready to think about buying, but it definitely motivated me to start seriously looking at what this place needs to get it listing-ready.

Because having a highly active 10 month old and getting ready to go back to work isn't enough on my plate, right?
