Oh boy! Spring time has come and housing woes

Wow am I just bad with this. Ok I sooo promise for the few that read I will me better about posting.

So in the past 2 months the Blue Heaven that has been our world has really gotten busy. I'll focus on the bigger of the boys- N. we are slowly conning him into lets not play hockey because I can not afford it! So we went for soccer-- now my father loved it, my hubby lives for it and I loathe it with every fiber of my being. Needless to say N loves soccer. He cannot wait for outdoor season in August and I have a feeling I will be a soccer mom ( driving an SUV!) Before he can get his kicks on the field we have baseball season. Now I was not some star athlete however my now 6 year old can hit. Not just hit a ball I mean knock out clear the field hits. If he would only stop diving for balls like a mad man, rolling in the dirt and focus I swear this kid would be brought up to play with 8-9 year olds.

The positives- I'm making neighborhood friends... Down side. They don't actually live in my neighborhood. See in my little town of 4000 where literally everyone knows each other there are the townies on the west side of the main street and the newbies on the east side. We have some friends on the west side but on my side -east-there are 3 subdivisions. We will call them P, H and N. P is small, larger more expensive all brick homes-- we have a few friends there. N is mine.. 30 homes, some kids, but 4 blocks of land with no homes since 170 should have been built here but everything crashed.

Then there is H. H Has been around since 2000 and has great homes. We liked 4 of them but they were over 300k when we were looking and could only get 1-2 of them on the lots that were open so we opted not to buy there. But EVERYONE lives there. Literally. I feel like they are the popular kids and I'm on the not as good 2nd class place looking in. One step behind the popular kids. Getting the latest fad 5 months later. They are only 4 blocks away but they are 90% built and have blocks of kids playing, neighbors getting together etc..

Oh how I wish I lived there..... Maybe one day.
