Well, I do need to get to 1000 so I can do another point dump giveaway.
Had a great day.

Excellent. 

Yes the covid is keeping us in on weekends saving well over 1k a month and it's making us examine ourselves as we confront out own gluttony. Like a mirror of guilt.…….but once the covid's gone we'll be back to normal, Thank God!

That is a lovely amount to save. I had a demanding job before I had surgeries, so our habit is not to go out all that much. We're fine. I'm refreshing my sourdough starter and decided to try to make granola. We were running an errand yesterday and saw a guy on a corner selling strawberries. They turned out to be SO good.

@KSM32  Really good real estate values in Texas.  But be prepared to pay real estate taxes based on the appraisal value which can seem high. But we don’t have a state income tax. All state and local money is raised by sales and property taxes.  We don’t usually have big market swings here.

Try to find something that isn’t in a MUD district or an HOA but if you can’t make sure you understand that is just another tax and they only go up, not down.  The only good thing about an HOA is that your next door neighbor can’t open up an auto body shop in his garage. We don’t have zoning here - HOAs do place deed restrictions on a parcel. Some are draconian dictating what colors you can paint and what your landscaping has to look like. 

But with your OCD master skills you will probably he the perennial yard of the month guy.

Hmm  thank you for that! Most of the places we looked at and liked were almost entirely brick Wide open flooring concept on main floors and many other things that caught out eye/s. The other town we looked at was Pflugerville. What exactly is a Pflugerville?

And even though the places were great I was gasping at the condition of the "lawns" oh well

@KSM32 you do have to remember the prices are in real dollars, not that monopoly money you hosers are used to throwing around.

@KSM32 You should find Texans to be a very welcoming bunch.  Ft Worth isn’t as friendly and down home as it used to be but it’s better than Dallas. 

Good news is you won’t have to build a sauna.  All you have to do is walk outside.

We have 4 seasons down here.

Almost summer, summer, still summer and hunting.

...I found out tonight that five years ago Ian stole my 22 oz framing hammer. Ian has since died so I'm willing to bet I'll not see my hammer again.
