Participant[quote=sdrealtor]Beautiful house. Its funny to me as I look at these old coastal properties and think they are all too big. All I dream about is finding the perfect little 3/2 beach cottage no bigger than 1400 sq ft to remodel to my heart’s delight.[/quote]
LOL – I thought in todays market 3000 sf is a starter home.UCGal

ParticipantIt’s a bit more expensive… but I LOVE my dyson.
Seriously… I never thought I would enjoy vacuuming or love a cleaning tool… but the dyson is seriously wonderful.Mine is old – got it in 2003 or so.. it’s been abused… it still sucks great.
Consumer reports says they’re too expensive… but I’ve never had a vacuum that worked this well – and held up this well.

Participant[quote=Doooh]But remember, teaching is such hard work that a 50yr old can hardly manage.
Comparing teaching to “hard work” and rought with liability is a joke when you look at the jobs in the private sector.[/quote]
I’m an engineer, not a teacher.
That said – done right, teaching is a lot harder.It’s not just mastery of subject matter. That’s the easy part. The teachers that I respect regularly put in 80+ hour weeks. And also are continuing to take courses, even though they’ve maxed their educational pay steps – to enhance their skill set.
Unfortunately, not all teachers fit that model. Some have not kept up with teaching techniques, computer literacy, etc. It’s not an age thing – it’s a complacency or striving for excellence thing. This is true in the private workforce also. Some folks excel – others coast…
