I try to be positive, but I am getting tired of my neighbor's. I am the only able guy in about a mile along my road. I have lived here for over 25 years. We were the youngest folks here when we moved in, and we still are. I do a lot of little repairs and assistance to my neighbor's. I've taken them to the doctor's, grocery shopping, and plowed driveways, shoveled out walks, I even plow out the road. Most seem thankful, but they don't offer to pay anything, I don't mind that so much as the fact that I only hear from them when they need help. And I am getting tired. We don't have kids, but all my neighbor's do. Their kids don't do much, if anything. I don't see anybody helping us when we get old, maybe family, but they are a hour or so away. A couple of my neighbor's have been trying to sell for years, but I don't see any young folks moving in. Mostly these folks want a 300K to 500K on a house and a few acres. I don't see those values being realistic. I am thinking we should bail out, I am thinking of a 5 year plan, we have a small biz and commercial property in town. Wind everything down and move on. We will get someplace with acreage ( think tractors!! ). Maybe I will fell better in the am. Btw, part of all this is the age thing. I am tired of hearing about the "good old days". As in the 50's? Sorry for the rant. I feel much better now!!!!
