Congratulation! Hoping to do the same within the next year. We love Dunedin, we purchased our house in 2015.

Saw them when I was on a LSV in July. They are fabulous. Hopefully the mortgage will go through on my home in NY and I’ll be seeing the Beatlemaniacs again, soon.

2BNTV Where is the "Nuts and Bolts" article / posts you refer to? I did a search and nothing came up. Just bought in Sabal Chase and appreciate you pointing us newbies to the information. Thanks.

Decisions. Most people have doubts after they make a decision. Should I have? Could I have? It drives many around me nuts. I do not have that problem. I research as much as I can and then make my decision based on what I know, knew or???????????
No matter what decision I make, I AM ALWAYS RIGHT. Based on where I was, what I knew at the time this is what I decided to do.

Perfection many demand it. I see it differently. Perfection does not exist.

The old expression is the glass half full or half empty. For me it is far more than half full. Most things that are not perfect so there is some empty space in the glass. Can I change them and is it worth the cost to change them?

If someone wants to become a frog, they have to kiss a Prince or move to France.
