I know where our water main shutoff is which was handy because putting in a new washer was difficult without it.
When we were looking to buy houses a couple of years ago, the places we were looking at all ran about $350,000. So, when I saw this link to a 5 bedroom 4 bath house for significantly less than that [link] I sort of wanted to cry.
I'll join you in the crying, sincerely. Just some of those period details like the ends of the bannisters brings a tear.
Shit, when I've looked in places I wanted to live for just me, they were $350K. But the key is the places I want to live.
Yeah, small town Minnesota would be a stretch, though it's near La Crosse which has the best and least expensive health care in the U.S. It's weird, because I might not mind so much living in Minnesota at this point in my life.
Except for the lack of having a job thing. And the winter thing. And the all of Grace's specialists are here thing.
The winter thing might get me, even if I'm more used to it than you are presently. Every year I get older, the better Tucson looks to me.
On my way back from the movies this afternoon I passed a cardboard sign by the roadside that said "House for cheap, [street address], cash only." I'm sure it's completely legit and aboveboard.
and now y'all got me looking at houses
