had the same problem on mine too. Maybe we should tell todd?

Had the same problem on mine yesterday evening, thought I was just dragging my feet, but guess NOT!!

Thanks for letting me know. Todd is probably just working on the site. If it happens again, I'll send him a message. A lot of weird things have been happening. I just stopped since I had to go to bed! :-)

Anyway, I wanted to write that although I think of short sales and foreclosures as affecting only lower income families, look at the homes that are on the market. I thought that most of the houses were under $200,000 - but maybe those are just the ones I've seen. I was surprised to find so many in the million dollar price range. I suppose that if someone has a $700,000 house and loses his/her job, it would have the same effect after savings are gone. It might feel degrading, but if I were in that situation I would try renting out a room. I once had a stranger rent from me and it was a nightmare, but I didn't run a background check because I knew him (or thought I did) from work. I once rented a room from a couple when I first got to FL. That was a long time ago and I paid them $90 a week. I have neighbors who charged their own relatives $150. Anyway, that's just an idea.   Another $400-$500 a month might save someone from disaster.

Gee. The Fed today said that we might be heading toward a recession. Duh? Did you know the economy is in bad shape?   Wow..this is news to me.   I thought everyone was playing golf or taking cruises all the time, didn't you?

I didn't know that Justx. I thought everything was going just fine. What were you thinking? And what was the government thinking?

I could never see a connection between independant truckers going on strike on April 1st, and high fuel prices. It never crossed mymind....lol

Jxp, I went and pulled up a news article from Feb 29th quoting the Prez saying he didn't think we were headed into recession. The Fed must be mistaken ... or trying to make him look bad. ;-)

I just saw that too timetreat. They announced today. Well...what do ya know...lol
