Yeah the title sucks but so what. I'm tired and it's the best I could come up with....My boys at LSU are at it again, beating Bama in basketball and Michigan State in Baseball. Looking good over in Baton Rouge! Need to take the girls over there for a football game this year if possible. Gonna try to get over to Gainesville for the LSU/Florida baseball game at the end of March if possible.
Headed to Tampa this weekend to look at a dog thru the lab rescue people. That's right we made it thru the interview unscathed!! Tried to get in on a puppy (pretty thing, at least on the website), but we're second in line. Going to go check out another, small yellow lab mix that's really good with kids. Wish me luck.
I don't think anyone is actually reading this blog, but regardless, have you seen the housing market deterioration here in SW Florida??? Holy Crap Batman!! If the value of your house isn't down at least 25% from the highs back in late 2005 and much of 2006, you must have a beautiful home on the water because EVERYTHING else is down. Even the waterfront homes are down, just not as much. Just by way of example, there are 3,700 properties for sale in the Bonita/Estero area and they are currently selling just over 100/month. I really almost wish we'd kept renting until the last couple of months because there have been some pretty nice houses put up for sale recently.
Our business is slowing considerably, but we still feel good about 2008. 2009 scares the shit out of me at the moment though. Between the housing slowdown, the credit markets and property tax cuts we are faced with a very tough environment.
Peace
