new england这里享受outdoor pool的时间其实极其有限，基本上也就是夏天那一两个月利用率高点。除非搞heated pool，那utility就高了去了。
indoor heated pool, 15k/yr for the whole house, of course that house we looked at was indeed quite large by my standard, the utility bill still scared me away. so it's only a dream. An outdoor screened in pool is not really that hard to maintain though. Whether it's worth the trouble in NE area is just personal preference, and kinda regional too. IN my region there 's only 1 public pool in several neighboring towns, and lot sizes tend to be large so that the space a pool takes is ignorable. So pools are indeed quite popular here....many very modest homes come with decent sized nice ig pools......
(listened) read several books by Barbara Ehrenreich lately, and desperately want someone to discuss with. She deeply sympathizes with the poor, the working class etc, and seems to blame everything on greed and promotes "conscience over gluttony" and what seems to me to communism. The recent book "this land is their (our, crossed out) land" talks about lots of recent issues like illegal immigrants, universal health care, unions, labor laws etc. Really need a better rounded education on this topic before I can tell how I feel about her approach. Any advice?

继续等高人。。。。another interesting thing about this book is like watching one of life's fallacies at work: make up one's mind, draw a conclusion, then look for evidence to support it. When something doesn't support this conclusion? hey, what the heck, I didn't see it, or it's a lie! [此贴子已经被作者于2010/2/23 11:34:59编辑过]
你用过么？是不是要先下载到itune，空空有没有什么可以推荐在youtube类似fine art of small talk? xiexie .
somehow my google pinyin disappeared... this happens roughly once a month, really furstrating..
read it later can be installed on any browser, you can download and enable that on your desktop/laptop. you can also download itunes app and that will make to the safari. however, if you are using ihuaren, tianya reader, wenxuecity etc, that does not work.
small talk never was a problem to me, so i dont really know where to read it.. what i do, i talk to people, sometimes i write down a few notes. such as the pet they have, their children's name, their hobbies etc. i just really enjoy those small personal topics.. and i did not do it for the small talk's sake, i think it is fun and warm to mention their dog's name, not just call it your dog.... i dont always do it, but i do sometimes. and when i do, it is not a trouble to me at all.
co-love it. but i saw this thing with my own eyes in 2 places - 1 in the furniture show room with god knows how tall ceilings and EXPANSIVE floor plan, it's undoubtedly wonderful. The other I saw in a very upscale but orthodox newer colonial with 9ft ceilings. Not so great. Guess the bottomline is, this thing calls for a lot of height and sqft.
我一点都不嫉妒，我讨厌大房子。
除非将来我能请一个司机，二个保姆，一个厨子，一个园丁，二个清洁工。
我就要大房子。
还要一个管家，不然光给他们分配工作就累死了
早上好
早上好~~~
还要一个管家，不然光给他们分配工作就累死了
有道理，看来我还是小户人家的想法，连基本的管家都忘了。。。。

其实我也是，我的理想是：有个独立的小屋子或者改造半个车库，做成studio，然后，房子够住就好。劳工问我，你要大点的房子，还是小点的，然后每个月多出几百块钱吃饭，我选小房子。

握手握手，我也是觉得房子够住就好。太大的房子一来打扫费事/费钱，二来家里人口没那么多填不满空荡荡的觉得不够温馨。

养游泳池要花好多钱吧
好像还行，我家邻居就有游泳池，我看花费也就是开春和入冬请人清一下，然后就是水电filter。不过不知道要是哪坏了请人修是不是很贵。
很豪宅啊，我羡慕~~~~~~~~~~~love screened in pool ，work大大减少，眼红眼红~~~~~~
是呀，没有落叶的问题，简直没有什么工作量了。可以多享受享受。
我是觉得可以建一个工作间是最重要的
你当然了，又是手工又是画画的。
我的理解就是要有完全属于自己的空间吧，我们家就是一间书房加一间办公室，各自占山为王，河水不犯井水。

可是房子真是越住越小呢，当然可能大家定义的大的标准不一样。

lie to me 很好看啊。。 所以还是我明智， 很早我就知道不要说谎， 除非能一个一个谎言的吧前面的盖住。 否则早晚要露馅儿。。。 反正我没那个智商。。
re, 主要是圆谎很累，太耗时间精力了，不值。
即使东北做在solarium里面的indoor inground pool也是有1堆能开开的窗户滴哇。。。。。。。sigh。。。。。。。

我最近上网上的头昏眼花，花了好多时间，昨天就给自己建了个文件夹，早上上45分钟，看到好的文章，就存起来，然后干正事，回头再到word里去看，你家jolin去daycare，抓紧时间把书读出来，等她上pre-k, or k ，下午很早就回来，你的时间就更少了。
jolin，你在么？昨天看到你做的煲仔饭，好诱人，建议你每天下午作饭前写写你家的小饭桌。

还有上次的那个酱八宝，我做了，很好吃，如果加上冬笋丁就更好吃了
真的留在婆媳，假的建议去天涯，争论会更猛烈些。
强烈建议kids pool。几个小孩一起带，越大，越好带，他们开心，你也能有更多的自己的时间。
how, 你介绍下经验吧。
看搜狐婆媳，有个难得说，小舅子白血病，专家说没治了，老婆岳父母要求治疗，倾家荡产都行。关键是岳父母没钱，然后他问怎么办，搜狐的一个回帖是：
真的留在婆媳，假的建议去天涯，争论会更猛烈些。
多半是假的。

原版是有冬笋丁的，没买到。

对了，我买的鲜笋过了水还是有点涩。是笋没买好还是出水时间不够长？

目前为止找不到那么多人。

你们走路上下班的，多远？穿啥鞋？
我也想搞，就是走过几次都到一半就脚疼
我上班单程0.8 mile, door-to-door 走了28分钟。
今天就穿厚底人字拖来的，皮鞋装包里。
我打算以后把上班常穿的两三双高跟鞋放办公室里，然后就球鞋人字拖换着穿。
单程5mile，算不算运动过度？
这个有点远，要不骑自行车呢？

没追这个楼主的其他帖子，光从这个后院来说，挺好挺干净，又很private，我很喜欢啊。回头看看她理财如何去。哪怕人家玩暧昧了也不能说一无是处嘛。
昨天看她的帖子了，一直追到20也左右。我也想看她说理财，尤其是flip house挣的钱怎么都让她给抵消了，老妖jj也问她了，可是她就开始打太极拳，还说要consulting费用。
且，如果要收钱的话就不要拿到论坛上来讲了，本来这里都是自愿给大家信息的。
修整房子的费用信息很有用，可是不喜欢她总是说她能拿到很低的价钱，别人吗，想要这个价就得让她飞去亲自还价了。至少你把你拿到的价钱告诉大家，好让大家有个比较，天底下就她一个会讲价钱的啦？
不说了，我太8了
