I was just driving back from town and wanted to take the "scenic" route. Unfortunately I also took the same route as the school bus dropping the kids off after school. The trip took a little longer but following and stopping behind that school bus gave me a chance to check out the houses I passed. Something that did strike me was the fact that at least 8 out of 10 homes did not have window coverings on their living room windows and it allowed me to look straight into to their homes. I saw lots of big screen TVs in those rooms. Either those people found some great tv deals or they are in hock up to their eyeballs. I think that the latter might be the case since the homes are in the lower middle class section of town.
Another strange thing that caught my eye was the fact that I passed some beautiful homes that were treated like dumps. Old cars sitting front with weeds growing around them. Some of those houses were really nice except that they were owned by people who are either hoarders or just plain messy. Why do people do that? Spend all that money buying a house only to thrash it? I guess I will never understand that.
