It's all very sudden and precipitated by Wax and her mom discovering this nearly-perfect house in an incredibly perfect location at a tantalizingly low price.
That would move our amorphous future plans of moving to Pargas (30 minutes away, not actually a suburb but a small archipelago town which has become increasingly popular as a... sleeper town, bedroom town, commuter town?... for Turku. MIL already lives there) precipitously very much closer. Tremendous-sized news, very exciting and a wee bit alarming, but above all very distracting. During that period of checking logistics to see if it can work out for a new residence one is extremely eager to move to it's always difficult to stop thinking about the possibilities, and it's kind of worse when the prospect is so close to ideal.
Last night instead of watching the first episode of Good Omens right away we looked for the episode of MTV3 Finland's renovation show Kotoisa where they redid the downstairs of another rintamamiestalo (post-WW2 soldier houses constructed in massive numbers with government support from publicly available plans, these are all over the country and are now somewhat sought-after charming small period houses and regarded as traditional, although in 1950 they were intended of course to be revolutionarily efficient and eco-friendly).
