    Eichler homes

    Went to see this house yesterday:http://www.redfin.com/CA/Orange/732-S-Woodland-St-92869/home/3421927 We weren't looking to buy when we went in, it was more to say hello to the Realtor (he helped us buy our Irvine house). I am in love :) Not very practical given the state/ stage of our life, and...

    He was being nice and polite  ??? and told BIL that detached condos below 2000SF are being listed close to a million, and gave him link to Redfin and IHB. I would have simply told him to bring another million to the table before thinking about Irvine..

    What's a snow ape? checked urbandictionary, not much a help.. Oh, things are different when you Indian.. that will one day make up a better comedy than Russell's whine about being hit by his dad when he was little, or his bargaining with Chinese vendors :) Didn't you see my signature? Know the...

    30 Day Fitness Challenge

    I try to go to the gym once a week, mainly for the machines. Cardio is usually with family- walk with husband, or bicycling with kids depending on their homework, sometimes a home video though I am not that motivated when I am alone, Wii Fit sometimes.. Eating- Yes! Rules are the easiest...

    401K Loan for Down payment

    Husband and I talked about just last night. But I am not looking into a loan against 401k. Still want to buy a property with the money in 401k as 401k investment.. never found people to help me that. Perhaps it's not very common.

    No, no benefit of doubt here :) In an age where you can type up anybody's address (or take a picture of their home) and find out home prices in the neighborhood, you don't call a relative and drop in a joke worthy price to buy something where they live and consider the land sacred. Oh yeah...

    Of course! That would be the nicest thing to say.. Dear BIL, we got people in OC that match your innocence/ ignorance frequency ;-)

    Sad news

    It's such a sad news. On Friday husband spotted a car full of teens with a bottle of whiskey in the back seater's hand- they were having just too much fun to drive responsibly. He did call Irvine police and let them know. Don't know what happened next. Scares me- kid will soon start having...

    So last night cousin's husband calls from Cupertino and says.. ..wait for it.... ....wait some more for it............ Can you look for a foreclosure in Irvine around 200k? I can pay 50% cash. All I need is a three bedroom SFR with two car garage... Yeah, resident...

    Whoa! He is amazing! There is a lady runner at the high school track.. six pack, with curves. I saw her sprint last evening, and my jaw just dropped.. how do these people get that energy? 28- you and Homer seem to be doing a good program. How did you develop the endurance? You are built that...

    If I hadn't met you multiple times, I would ask "Are you for real?" SoCal, that's a compliment!

    NSR- my husband can relate to your wheat thins addiction. He can finish the whole bag in 2/3 days! We stopped buying them from Costco- only way to stop eating :) Haven't heard about that guy, but when it comes to eating: Eat something fresh if you can. Eat something cooked fresh. Eat ingredients...

    BRCA Gene

    Finally got the thing done! Two years late. The doctor explained why I should have set up at appt at 35. All is well.. except for a fifteen minute scare where I had to wait for an u/s. Phew! Back to the Dr.'s office for a genetic testing.. weird, I was talking about Myraid genetics on FB a week...

    Irvine Growth Among Fastest

    That was my first thought. San Marino is pretty.. Arcadia looks old and ugly. But yes, if schools are his basic need, both have rocking public schools! What's wrong with private schools BTW?

    How low can we go? 30 yr fixed at 3.75% with no fees...

    LOL! I imagined you doing all those things with your appraiser -She will throw in an extra 100k ih the value ;-) Steroid Bubble is a good word- describes the condition perfectly. I sooo want to pick a fight with you.. so that we can make up with a "I am sorry" cake!!!

    The Positives

    1. Good schools- it's not just the API, there are others things too. I will share more someday when there is more time. Arcadia schools have great scores too.. but not the same! 2. Planned villages- easy on the eyes. 3. Wider streets, not as congested as Pasadena. 4. Employment opportunities...
