There’s a house for sale in our neighborhood that is very much like ours. The other house is siding, ours is brick, they have a full bath downstairs and we have a half. They have a paved driveway and we have gravel. Otherwise pretty close to the same house. The other house is 2 years older than ours. Because I need to know things, I looked up the house on the internet and lo! They are asking about 79K more than we paid for our house in December of 2004. If they get that price, I’ll be amazed but pleased.
We just looked at our 10 day forecast and what is up with the high 70s, low 80s? Dude, it is the middle of freaking October. Enough with the heat already.
I like the warm days, as long as the nights are cool like this. No A/C and no heater means lower electric bills. Plus, I still need to get our chimney cleaned. Perhaps the warm days makes calling the chimney sweep pass my mind?
We bought in 2001. 11 acres in the county, our taxes are lower than they were in the city. Now houses in our old city neighborhood are selling for 50K more than we paid for this house! When we re-financed last year, our house had doubled in value. It’s crazy, crazy up here.
It’s amazing how much houses are going for right now.
The weather sucks…it was so freaking humid yesterday, I was walking around at the mall in shorts, feeling like I should have had on jeans. Come on fall weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
