As if we didn't have enough to do.

So, our condo is still for sale all these months later (3 or 4) and our neighbor who has a unit EXACTLY like ours lowered their price leaving us in a quandary. Do we match their price? Do we argue that since we have a garage that ours is worth more and hope someone else sees the value of a non-wet car, or one that isn't frost covered on those cold mornings? Or, do we do nothing and wait until after the wedding.

Well, we dropped the price of our condo in order to keep the "product" competitive in our area. It may have been a crazy thing to do because we've had more folks walk through in the past 24 hours than come during an open house. EEK.

Jason and I did a dangerous activity to keep ourselves busy today. We went and looked at homes. On one hand, it is good to know what is in the market so if we have to move quickly to purchase a home we aren't starting from ground zero. On the other hand, it is easy to fall into strong like for homes that we can't put offers on.

It was a fun afternoon, capped off by a stop at Whole Foods and now he's in the kitchen where he belongs cooking up a chicken prosciutto dinner for his favorite girl. I'm going to head in there now to see if I can't "help".

Translation:

Help: To drink wine and look cute while someone else cooks. This activity may require periodic handing of items to the cook, and a wipe of a dish here and there.

I really think you've found a keeper there, TP.

In an unrelated query, does it make me look like a fool when I'm the only one who comments on a post? You need to round up some more talkative blog readers.
