Everything's going OK with me. I am not getting a lot done this week, and school starts back in less than a month.
Don't get started on that . . . Carpe Diem!
It hurts a lot to go to the gas station. These big gas bills are bummin' me out. Then, all the sudden, prices drop 15 cents or so, because the stock market went up. Well. How about that? Speculators are messing with the whole dang economy. And all these people who got mortgages with NO money down, and an ARM (how stupid was that???) Guess what, you're not going to have your parents' house and car and vacation home and . . . etc. right out of college!!
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, my husband and I were offered an ARM -- so we could get "more" house. The realtor said, "You will probably get a 5% raise every year, so nothing to worry about." Well, we didn't bite. We got a good ol' 30 year, fixed rate, FHA. And then the bottom fell out of the oil market (80's). And we could still pay our FIXED RATE mortgage, because he didn't get a raise for 7 years!!
Nuff said.
