jetta SG Prices here are unbelieveable! San Diego is the 6th most expensive place to live in and the housing prices reflect that. I would love to remain in this neighbourhood but a typical house here costs $600K. Even 30 year old homes like the one I'm renting (2275sqf) costs $650K to buy. Only a 20 min commute to the base for hubby.) And don't talk about dumps. We've gone to see many homes and even dumps are expensive! *%#&$&%&%#)(&* My lease is up in Oct. Penalty to break? Would still have to pay the rent till then even if I've moved.
littlestream SG how come i am doing a monologue? hey, people..........i'm not practising to be a stand-up comic hor. please come back and yak ley. btw, one of these days, must get hubby to take me to montreal for the comedy club thingy. love to watch the comedy network and their acts.
jetta SG Yah Price is Right fan. Right after my Today show. That's been my "pattern" for years. RE: AI. This year we get to vote! *happy dance*
littlestream SG wah piang eh, how many book threads are there? seems you have a lot of time eh, bear? how can you read, watch docu, chat online, work, bowl, write review? i already feel i don't have enough time. or maybe i'm slow.
littlestream SG Wow!!! That's really high!!! Like that, looks like I am stuck in Toronto liao. We are ranked 50th for most expensive city. Vancouver, having the mildest winter in Canada is ranked 15th. Oh, over here if we break the lease, I think the peanlty is like 2 months rental. I think, I may be wrong but I know we can break lease. Actually, negotiable lah. But aren't you going to retire in Seattle? Your hubby's hometown. Fatum was mentioning Seattle. How do you like it? Wet also right? Have you ever consider Nevada?
jetta SG Seattle? Only as a last resort. After being overseas for so long and being stationed in places like Singapore, Hawaii and here, we are all used to the warmer climates. Yes things are cheaper in Seattle and we have family there but.... San Diego has a higher military presence than Seattle so jobs here are easier to find since Hubby is navy. If anything, we can build equity here and take it up to Seattle if things don't work out here. Decisions, decisions, decisions...
jetta SG We were living in Hawaii when the first AI came out. We tried to vote but couldn't get through so we gave up.
littlestream SG Hmm........understand. Good luck with your house hunt yah. Trust you will come up with something. But you sure got lotsa of energy. I'm not very good with moving. Not that I move a lot but I'm quite fragile.
breytonhartge SG sorry there have been power outages in my area.. has happened twice already... something wrong with the substation... so I dunno if I can get back on again... will call it a night. You all have a great weekend. Ciao!
littlestream SG hee hee......eh, if i am not married, i would have seriously become a singer leh. nite club singer lor. eh, fatum......really regret taking a day off leh. the sun is up and everything's looked cleared.
Fatum SG don't ... the weather is still extreme outside .... it's so cold even my inner windows are iced up and i can't open them ....
jetta SG Sorry! Have to go. Hubby just reminded me he has to service his car today. I have to follow in mine to pick him up. Sorry! Thanks for the company and the laughs. TTFN!
littlestream SG in the car? boh lang sing in the car eh lah. either in the shower or in the closet. HUBBY CANNOT SING AH? hubby and i both sing but *ahem* i am a better singer. actually i was to go for a singing competiton. an english one. he knows i can make it so make small excuses about me competing. since i know he doesn't feel comfortable, i respect his wishes and withdrew. he is the macho macho man type so didn't really say outright lah but i can tell lah. he knows me just like i know him. while i love to sing and singing makes me happy. however, seeing him or making him happy makes me happier. so yes, sacrifices, sacrifices, sacrifices.
