Good Morning! It looks like it's going to be another beautiful summer day!

Here's today's Question Of The Day.


Where do you live? In a house, condo, apartment, mobile home, other? Are you buying it, or renting it? How long have you lived there?


I guess I should have said Questions of the day!


I live in a small house that I'm buying (still have a couple of years before it's paid off.) I've lived here since 1990.

I live in an apartment. I've been here since 2003, so it's going on 6 years. I don't pay any rent since my family owns the building, but they're trying to sell it, so I may have to start soon.
After I graduate next year, I'll probably be moving out and buying a house, assuming I can get hired on where I'm doing my grad assistant work right now. I like the apartment I'm living in, but the commute is just too far to have to do every day.

I live in a 6/7 bedroom house, 2 bath and 3 garages. It's 6/7 bedrooms because there is a big rumpus room, which could be used as a bedroom but at the moment it's a laundry room.

I live with Mum, Kieran (my boyfriend), two boarders, my step sister and her boyfriend and of course 5 cats and 1 dog. The cats of course have their own bedroom too.

We rent and pay $300USD a week for our house in a really nice area. We have lived here since Jan 2006.

I live in the converted attic (into a loft) of a Victorian Style Home that must be at least 100 years old. I have only lived here for 4 years, moving from a much larger apartment back in 05. I decided to downsize at that time and literally got rid of 3/4 of my junk. I rent of course at a what I think is a very reasonable price. I have a large roof deck, and a wonderful view of the river, and also Georgian Bay. The only downside is stairs.

We bought our house 3 years ago. It's a 1 1/2 storey wartime home, so not huge, but more than big enough for 2 people and 2 cats.

I live in a 550 square foot apartment with my boyfriend and 2 cats...its cramped with the bf, but its top floor with a great view and in downtown Edmonton. Ive been there since Sept. 2006 when I moved to Alberta. Bf joined me March 2007....I dont think I will move until I leave Alberta when I finish my PhD....and then with student loans etc., it will be a long time before I can buy my own house. I love the 2 shown above!

I live in a 2 BR 14x70 mobile home/trailer. I own it, or rather I am buying it, and I have lived here since Oct 2000. I am the crazy cat lady in the trailer park with a million cats

I live in a condo/apartment. It's just me and Chester, I pay the mortgage he keeps the mice away. I've been here since May 2005 he came in June 2005.

It's not my first choice but In my decline I needed to move to a place that is accessible. I'm on the third floor and there is an elevator and an underground garage.

We live in a side-by-side duplex, which we have rented for the past 19 years. It's not perfect, but it suits our needs.

Well, DH, the bank and I own a house. We are not living together for now, so I rent a bedroom with a private bath in a house. I have access to all the house, too. I love this place!

Here is my room:

Wow to those who have posted pics of their cribs - stunning!


You'd crack up at my orange house if you saw pics. The good thing about it is the space though - it's HUGE!
