Biding my time . . .

[DaisyDuke]

Many of us are on Piggington for various different reasons. Mine is to continue to stay educated on the housing market so I spend my hard earned dollars on my next home carefully.

My husband and I read all the information we can set our eyes to. Besides Piggington, we read Patrick, Dollarcollapse, Implode (which we not only read but send money to). We have determined we are addicts!

At 1:00 AM after returning from a week-long camping vacation a couple of seeks ago, my husband and I started up our computers to get up-to-date on housing/economy. Our 21 year old son found the two of us sitting together using our respective computers and announced that we needed professional help.

Taking heed, we began a collection of plants (in pots) and intently taking care of them, inspecting them, moving them around for proper light, etc. just to break us away from our addiction.

Some of you watch ugly homes, how many garages, short sales, etc. for sport. I am wondering if any of you have had to take up a specific hobby or sport just to pull yourself away from information about housing and the economy in order to retain some sanity.

Please share if you care . . .

I just traded my new hobby for television. I have watched about three hours of T.V. in the past two months. The hour or so a day that I devote to my self education replaced two to three hours of television, so actually I have had more free time and my brain seems to be working better since I unplugged from the matrix.

Hawk, love the new vid, it’s probably your best that I’ve seen because it moves quick and combines a few different elements, well done. That guy in the end from San Simeon, I love San Simeon and Cambria, was that 145 for a house or just a lot., I would have never thought prices would ever fall there, even forbes said a year ago that it was one of the places that is immune to the fall in prices, guess they were wrong. It’s one of the most beautiful places on the planet and it takes a decade (literally) to get a building permit because of the water/sewer/envronmental protection issues. When you see the ads for lots, it’s place in line for a water/sewer permit is always listed and the price is based on the spot in line, not the location or size, it’s amazing.

Ha-ha. Daisy you are spot on. I am now addicted to these darn bubble blogs too. I tell myself the age old alcoholic line that I will be able to quit whenever I want, after I finally buy a house anyway. 🙂

Lately, for distraction, I like to go to open houses on Sundays and tease the realtors. It’s great when they ask me things like, “so do you plan to buy in the next few weeks?” and I reply, “Oh no, I plan to buy next year, or in 2009.” Usually I just get stunned silence.

Ok, it’s almost 1PM…

Time to go make the rounds in the 1-4PM open houses.

OCRenter updated San Diego inventory numbers last night. It seems that we are at new record highs following a steep increase in the last 1 1/2 weeks.

All sellers keep calm now. There is no need to rush to exits….
