[quote=Anonymous]I have a 1100 foot house 3br and 2 baths with 3 kids. I would like a larger house about 10% of the time. I appreciate the lower property tax, mortgage, utility, and general upkeep bills. I was house poor before I met my DH and so when DH and I were house shopping I told the realtor "this is what we can spend" and didn't rely on the bank. It made a big difference to us to have the basement (another 1100 sq. feet) organized into the following- toy/play area room, tv area with two sofas, an office desk by the stairs, laundry space, storage space for, let's face it, seasonal crap, and, what wasn't apparent to me before we moved in, three floor to ceiling metal shelves used as a kitchen pantry (dry goods, paper plates, serving ware, crock pots, etc.) I drop crap off at the Salvation Army regularly. I tell my children when I throw out their drawings (after a week on the frig) we are recycling so they can make more art in the future. If you keep wanting something bigger, better, ore $ there is not end. I tell my kids there will always be people with more money than us, and always people with less money than us. We are "middle".[/quote]
