Still nothing- no glowing neon sign, no accepted contract, no house singing to me "this is it!"
Not for lack of looking.
We saw one very interesting property waay out in the 'country' which for here means about 20 minutes from 'town' and about 45 minutes from Oceanside. It had a pool in the middle of the U shaped house(ranch-ish house) and the 4th bedroom was not attatched to the rest of the house except through the courtyard the pool was in.
And it was in the fire path of 2007- literally was in the fire- the house is still standing but the fire was there (I'm still kinda amazed how many houses were standing after that fire went though)
Larry liked it. I'm unsure. Ok. I didn't like it enough to move there. I wasn't thrilled that the 4th bedroom is virtually unusable excpet as a office/guest house and the pool in the middle of the house and being so far from 'town' (ya know I'm used to living NEAR stuff now- it's rather convenient and should fedex be unwilling to pick up our packages from there if we're still the ones shipping our stuff- I'd have to drive to town just to drop them off several days a week)
Saw a rental last night.
And while it was in a area I thought I wanted to live in and had 4 bedrooms, it was in rough condition.
And if we're not buying it and renting it.. the carpets were just ewwwww. I don't care how much money we're saving in rent- we.are.not renting something with gross carpets. The gross carpet here is the #1 reason we're moving.
So.. I have an APB out with EVERYONE I've come in contact with here- from my old growth group to my brand-new women of faith bible study, put a 'wanted' ad on craigslist.. and now we're waiting.
