Sort of caught up with LJ after skip 650! I need to trim some communities and some friends that aren't really friends off of the friends list. If I should know something important please let me know in person - I may have missed it.
VT was really very nice, I'm too tired and have to get working so I can't post a full review here. Notable experiences included spending time with a great group of women (its been a while), Nyla's cooking (as usual), and being in the hot tub late at night while the soft snow was falling. Pics are here: http://www.diabolis.net/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=198
I got my Arwen dress finally (backordered since December). I need to try it on and see how it looks and fits. It's really pretty and pretty accurate (from what I remember from ROTK). Here it is: http://66.0.193.113/cgi-bin/www11650.storefront (click LOTR link on main page and then look at the Arwen Coronation Gown).
We got the other market analysis report from the other realtor - it wasn't too helpful overall. She took a bunch of houses, some totally not like ours at all (some 2-families, some sold "as is") and averaged the prices together to get a price for ours. She also didn't fill out the sheet commenting on the particular aspects on our house (i.e. what was good, what was bad). She did note some properties that sold 1 block over from us that weren't on Ken's report in late 2003 that sold for much lower than he's valuing ours at and were on the market for a while - its something we should probably discuss with him.
I think we're just going to see what happens with the market in March. Things should pick up (so Ken says) and prices should climb a bit (so Ken says). It will all get figured out in time.
Which brings me to the quote of the day:
