Can't believe that it is the last day of November. Soon another year will be done. It just reinforces the idea that we need to do what we can when we can. I am happy for Nucky to be able to get his dream house and a dog. I feel very blessed to have both but also know that NOTHING is forever. Abby and K get yourselves down here. Everyone's big regret is that they didn't do it sooner.

Great post, great advice. Thank you, fw. We got next to NOTHING done yesterday that we planned. Unfortunately had some problems/issues to deal with early in the day. Never fails whenever we go away something goes on with one of our properties or a family issue arises or whatever. Anyway, NOTHING too serious and today is another beautiful day in TV. We did get to LSL and did some walking and met a wonderful couple who again we spent way more time than expected talking to them. What a pleasure. Can you tell hubby and I are people persons? Lol

I thought we might be off to Fenney this morning, but our cousin just called to see what we're up to so who knows.......

Slow day yesterday on NOTHING. We have 194, 855 views as of 9:01 AM EST 11/30/2018. :coolsmiley:

Tony Lip's speech in the movie Green Book reminds me a lot of the talk of Nucky here on the NOTHING thread. If you see it look for some family members of the real Tony Lip in the movie. Really great movie!!!!

And I almost got up and yelled with delight at two points in the movie.:clap2::MOJE_whot:

What Happened To The Real Tony Lip? ‘Green Book’ Is Just One Slice Of His Amazing Life Story

Thanks, Tal. I NOTHING but love this because I can see at a quick glance instead of wasting time checking myself when I have so much else I want to do while in TV. Much appreciated!

This was brought up yesterday by the couple we ran into what a great movie this is. Being Italian, from what I hear, my husband should NOTHING but enjoy it. He's not one to generally go to a movie but this might be a good thought for a rainy day.

You know something, I have learned and am continuing to learn that things are way different down yonder than it was back home. The way to make money on NOTHING other than Real Estate in the North was to BUY at the best price and then you could be flexible at the time of the sale. Down here the negotiating part of buying is virtually non-existent unless in two years I've totally lost my touch. People barely want to talk about reducing their prices even when they are over the top with their price.

The other day I had two killer realtors in my home and asked questions about similar properties to mine that I already knew the answer to. They either gave me NOTHING but Half answers, misleading answers or outright downright lies. Just about NOTHING more than what I expected. They lowballed the price so they could pop a quick sale. I am on the other hand factual with my own investigation of what similar properties have sold for. I am laughing like hell on the inside while they are misleading me and my wife.

All the stars must be NOTHING but in alignment before we bust a move. How many times have we read on TOTV'S about I don't want to say old people so I'll say people in our age bracket being taken advantage of in one way or another? I was talking about selling my house and moving into a CYV and when we went out to look we were in ranches. I think I was perfectly clear but don't want to go unless it is what we want. We are very happy where we are and only want a CYV. If it can't be then so be it.

I have a feeling that one way or the other it will work out when the time is perfecto.

CYV, great shape or messed up really goodly where we save a bundle and I can make it my last rehab. I'm even going to get permits, how do you like that and the only other request would be NO, NO, NO, trees that I need a permit to take down. Value is the biggest thing. A project would be fine. Oh, TWO can's are a must. :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

I have to say Mrs. Fw this may be the NOTHING post of the YEAR. The clock is ticking. We don't postpone happiness. Regrets I have a few but WAY to FEW to mention. I would take the doggie over any house any day. I Love your post and the message is NOTHING but on the $Money$. :clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2:

And you want NOTHING but north of 466? Were these Villages realtors, I must say I am surprised.

It definitely has a lot of Italian Tri-State culture in it. Look for some of the Vallelonga family members in the movie. And not for NOTHING.

Well we are hoping that NOTHING but great news is what you get!

I, we wish NOTHING but positive result's for you Squidly. As a member of our Service Personale, you deserve NOTHING but the best. :pray:

On another note, I NOTHING wish all the Service Men & Women a Great Holiday Season!

Hope you are lucky with the result and not for NOTHING.

Been hither and yon lately, traveling commercial in those flying Petri dishes.

If you happened to see a crazy lady on a plane, neurotically cleaning her entire seat, seat belt, screen, tray, arm rest, etc. with antibacterial wipes — well, that was me.

And now — a miserable cold. Might as well have done nothing. (sigh)

Looks like I have some catching up to do with this thread.

Nucky, I love looking for houses and I love dogs. I plan to stay tuned.

(If I may stick my nose in the house thinking — I would like to say you might want to think about a small designer or ranch that backs up to a CYV wall. That way, you can get privacy behind and a double garage. I realize it is not the amount of privacy a CYV offers though.

The Gardenia (block and stucco) and the Camelia (vinyl) let in a lot of light — which I love to have in a house. Both models have side windows in the living room and some of the Gardenias have that lovely arch over the large kitchen window where the table and chairs can be.

The lanai is not huge, when the model backs to a wall. It is long and narrow. But sometimes there are telescoping doors that can make the lanai a part of your living area when you have a bigger crowd in.

Backing to a wall gives you a small yard which we happen to like — a lot. Also, the way the neighboring houses are set on the inside lots often can allow a surprising amount of side privacy.

These models also have a small front porch.

I have not looked lately, but there are usually some of these in the LSL section, throughout. Not sure about the north though, but probably.

I loved that wall the minute I saw it when I walked in the front door.

Just a thought — or two. — or three. :) )

Exactly how I feel about flying, don't enjoy it but need to do it.

As for CYV, for some of us NOTHING else will do. I would not trade mine for any designer or even premier house in The Villages. I love the privacy and the safe space for my dog.

I completely understand what you mean. There is nothing that can match the privacy of a CYV. They also make beautiful use of the generous interior space.

In fact, I originally thought that was what we would get. Seasonal birds like them a lot. CYVs can get pretty expensive sometimes. The market demand seems like it is always there for CYVs.

Those years ago, I was not even thinking about the possibility of a home backing up to a wall when I happened to see one so I thought I would just throw the thought in here, in case it might help somebody. :)

Hello, there Mrs. Sniffles. I'm sorry you're not feeling NOTHING but up to snuff. Traveling by airplane is a no go for me. I don't even let anyone drive me anywhere. I don't let anyone wag a finger in my face. I better stop there. :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Mrs. Boomerrookski you bring up some very good points. They are true and factual but the thing about me more than us is that I fly by the seat of my pant's as far as I will educate myself till I want to die and then strike like a Viper when the deal is good. I promise that the outcome here will be great. The only thing that can't be guaranteed is the neighbors. We have had Golden, no Platinum neighbors our whole life.

Just like the dog, when we see the correct one Forgetabouit!

I have a Doctor friend who is more of a Brother on TOTV'S who could fix you up in a minute and I have a Pharmacist Extrodinare palsey walsey who could advise better than I. I say Tylenol, Booze if possible and Sleep it out or just go to Dr. Vinny Boombatz! Feel Better.

Everybody in NOTHING is NOTHING but helpful. Your post shows you would fit in like the hand in most gloves. I wish I could be neighbors with all of Yous but I'm not that big, yet! Mrs. Boomer points well taken as is Mrs. FW's point.

I like the idea of our Monstrous size dog prowling the premises just after the moat.

NOTHING but happy to hear this now you can get down to NOTHING with the rest of us.

It was NOTHING but a valid point and it was good of you to share it.

The nothing regulars sure seem like they all would be wonderful neighbors.

(I like this thread because there is no drama. Nothing but kind and pleasant and fun interaction among "neighbors.")

I am NOTHING but happier than a Clam At High Tide. To the Pool. Yippee Yappy Yahooey!

Who knows...maybe we NOTHING but are your neighbors...

Whats NOTHING better than Roses on a Piano?

I don't know if I can bring myself to answer if someone else doesn't.

:boom::boom::boom:

:1rotfl::1rotfl: Tulips on an organ :1rotfl::1rotfl:
NOTHING

There are 2 NOTHINGS who are conspicuous missing...

I love it, you've got NOTHING but guts. Wicked Perfecto! I'm Dying laughing! :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

I have no idea what you are talking about. Tulips are NOTHING but beautiful flowers. :girlneener:

You are NOTHING but giving Mrs. BK a run for the money!

Give that lady Nothing but a cigar!

I couldn't run if my life depended on it. I am NOTHING but a turtle in molasses.

Oh but to run again! Just wait until I have nothing but that celebratory new hip cocktail party.

Hey Calamary - we are nothing but waiting for the heat! :welcome:

That was funny when you said you had your eye on one! Made me think maybe they are available at NOTHING but Amazon.

You gotta admit Mrs. FW did pretty good!!! :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

One of our pals had great results with his hip replacement. Playing Pickleball in 5 weeks from the operation day. Not bad.

She did nothing but GREAT!

I asked my doctor if I would be able to tap dance after the surgery. He said "Sure".

That's great since I don't know how to tap dance now!

I always NOTHING but thought that a certain feminine product made a person hang glide, horseback ride, and surf! :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Comes a point where it NOTHING but stops working.

Not for NOTHING but I would have asked for something better than tap dancing, like being able to get up off the floor without a crane.

I can NOTHING but identify with that my NOTHING sister. I am NOTHING but typed out for today. I had a blast pretty much stayed outta trouble and will see Yous tomorrow God willing. Goodnightski.:bigbow:

I'm looking at Nothing but the endgame. First you get off the floor without a crane, then you shuffle, then walk, walk faster, stop using the electric carts at Walmart and Pulix and then "jump" into your golfcart or car. The next level would be a dance or two at a Square -- maybe even learn a line dance, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc.,etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., until finally Tap Dancing!

See FW, I have a master plan and if I only get through a handful of etc's, I'll be a very happy camper.

The number one menu item my DH and I order at Giovanni's in Southern Trace - off of 466 is fried calamari. Not too many people talk about eating Squid and I don't ever remember anyone saying they were going "fishing for nothing but squid". So I put two and two together. (I'm the unlikely combination of Irish/Norwegian but I was once married to an Italian). It was a lucky guess. LOL
