I'll daydream with you, Eaves. I check our local listings a couple times a week and dream. The time will be here soon enough, but I just can't seem to control the hunting in the meantime. I think you're 2nd home is much prettier, but I like that the 1st has more yard and trees. We'll probably lean more towards having some room outside and sacrifice room inside with the thoughts that that part could potentially be fixed. You can't generally add on to the yard. You do have a lovely home, however packed into it you may be. So it could be worse. Hmmm… I’ll daydream with you, Eaves. I check our local listings a couple times a week and dream.

I grew up, as the oldest of five, in a "C" house right up the street from the Cemestos Gardens. Two parents, five kids, cats, gerbils, white mice (to feed the snakes), and Augie (the world's greatest dog). I know the cozy feeling of which you speak. I also can't remember ever being unhappy there. Cozy is good. Sorry Eaves, don’t have any cool fantasys for ya, but I can empathize.

In my area $175,000 will get you about a quarter acre and 1,000 square feet. Oh, and it will need a new roof, electrical updates and lots and lots of improvements! Crazy how expensive houses around here are. Maybe we need to relocate? Check this out. In my area $175,000 will get you about a quarter acre and 1,000 square feet.

Not new construction, but many of the homes built in the 60s or 70s have decent-sized lots. With actual trees. Also skim through www.viewhomes.com.

The trouble lately has been old cozy is tending to cramped more often than not. Oh, I know it's all perspective. The grass is greener in the pictures of all those houses for sale. I know that. Knowing is one thing, though, and living is another. I like the free, Punk HP, I surely do.
