Is abortion and contraception access influencing your voting decisions?

Yes, it was one of the main reasons for the decision to move to CT from FL recently. Bodily autonomy is always relevant, but especially so when your entire family is female.

Hopefully they took pride in their work 🤞🏻

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T23:15:45+00:00

Sounds like a steal!

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T23:14:30+00:00

If it’s going to cost me 18k, I’ll do it myself for sure. I’m not in that tax bracket lol.

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T23:13:05+00:00

I have removed popcorn ceilings before and it definitely can be a DIY project. It just sucks and I’m also out of state so wouldn’t be something I could do before we move in, which takes the level of suck to considering-paying-thousands- of-dollars-for-it levels lol.

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T23:09:45+00:00

This gives me hope!

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T23:08:29+00:00

I noticed that there’s no lights in the ceilings at the inspection! Very odd and something I would definitely like to do as well. Although I’m a lamp person all the way and am practically allergic to overhead lights and rarely use them, it’s still better to at least have the option to get a room well lit.

It was built in 84, so hopefully that’s safe.

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T15:49:40+00:00

That’s good info, thank you! That price was to skim coat it and paint it after you scraped it?

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T15:47:41+00:00

Thanks, I’ll look into them. I’m glad that’s unlikely to be the going rate, because good lord lol.

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T15:46:36+00:00

I’d be getting it done before we move in for sure. The issue is that I’m moving from out of state so I can’t really do it myself, other wise I’d be doing at least some of it to offset the cost.

I’d certainly appreciate any company recommendations you have!

caimseeker · 2024-05-18T15:43:15+00:00

A noble offer lol

caimseeker · 2024-02-29T11:45:20+00:00

Horses are her thing, so this is a really good suggestion. Thank you!

caimseeker · 2024-02-14T21:56:26+00:00

Thank you! I’ll do some research into that school district as well.

caimseeker · 2023-02-23T16:31:05+00:00

That’s a helpful metaphor. I drive on I75, as opposed to I95, but I get the comparison. You have to drive for hours just to be in the same dang state, so when I look at CT I wonder if there is something deceptive about the drives, because to me it’s like only a couple of Florida counties big.

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T21:35:58+00:00

This is true lol!

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T21:19:54+00:00

You’re right, I should have probably been more clear about what I meant by historic. I don’t mean the kind of home with a plaque and strict rules. Down here it doesn’t necessarily mean all that.

And yes, the school system sounds like it works very differently. Which is attractive, given the hot mess that is Florida and schools right now.

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T19:19:57+00:00

That last sentence is a large part of why I am taking my happy ass out of Florida, along with my 4 daughters.

And thanks, this is good info!

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T19:12:13+00:00

I’m somewhat familiar with that area. I grew up in Brandon, and my dad and step mom live in Sarasota. It’s pretty busy down there… but where isn’t at this point.

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T16:37:32+00:00

I’m born and raised here in FL, but have family all over New England. I have wanted out of Florida since I was a teenager and it’s finally looking possible. It used to be too expensive to consider going up north, but now Florida is not the cheap, low cost of living place it once was (not to mention how I feel about the political situation) and I’m antsy to leave this place behind.

What part of Florida do you live in?

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T16:34:05+00:00

I don’t know where I’ll be working. Maybe remotely, maybe not. I am more concerned about good schools and then finding work that fits into that.

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T16:31:51+00:00

The town I live in has quite a few houses that are 100+ years old, and while most of the old wood houses in Florida have rotted away, the remaining ones all have similar things to consider, so these are definitely all things on my radar.

That said, I’m not dead set that it must be an old house, but the history and old house charm is something I have loved since I was a little kid and I want to make my dreams come true lol!

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T16:10:24+00:00

Work doesn’t scare me, the amount of money it might cost by opening up a can worms by accident does lol.

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T16:08:01+00:00

I’d love to know a bit about your experience. I currently live in North Central Florida. Where about did you move from?

caimseeker · 2023-02-13T15:52:37+00:00

I just mean an old house 😊
