Allen we did not recieve our wristbans
very very sad here in South Jersey.
Busy looking at Modular Homes, my neighbor got one and I'm very impressed.
Very exciting watching them lift it over the telephone wires with a crane. My DD just got an estimate on a 1824 sqft house complete with basement and a lot of extras $188K Now all they have to do is find some land. A lot cheaper than trying to buy a home on the market, and new is always better than used (lived in). Since we are excited to baby sit we're thinking of buying one next to them, but I think a little smaller. I really had no idea what a basement cost, I thought $7500 that was a fantasy the quote is for $26,425 quite a difference, it's funny how prices go way up when you haven't looked in years. Pretty scary for young people just starting out. We certainly don't want a mortage at our age. Don't want to hit the retirement fund, want every penny there, the market has been doing grrrrreattttt. As Tony would say. Since October it's been scary how very very well we've done Hope it keeps up for another year. We all know what goes up must come down. I don't want to live through another down turn, so I'll watch closely and get out, not be greedy.
Sorry to hear you had to cancel your cruise Liz. Hopefully all will go well with your family. Know what it's like to have things go off kilter.
