OPERATION _____________
I need a military or sarcastic military name for our "big move" to our new rental house.

I am drawing up the map now from "Ghetto" (not really ghetto just in the city) to "Burb" (suburbs)

14. -
If we stay anywhere near budget we will have $##,###.## saved by the end of the year and THEN we can find a house.

Operation White Flight still holds the lead but I really like Operation Jeffersons as well as others.

16. You know you're a homeowner when...
...plunking down $3,000 for a new a/c and heating system can be rationalized by the fact that your utility bills will be so much lower, it'll pay for itself. :eyes:

Then the toilet breaks, then the garden needs new plants, and the fence needs repair...it goes on and on.

22. No kidding.
Last year, we were doing some renovations to our house rather than move...in the space of one month...the A/C went, the disposal went, the fridge in the garage died...(that was truly disgusting, I was taking care of my dad in the hospital and didn't notice until everything in the freezer was not only thawed but rotten), the A/C in my car died, the dryer went, the washer went. It was amazing. I had such amazing 'cash flow' there was a breeze. In and right out again.

17. Operation Watch Out Cantor, Here I Come.
Nice ring to it, I think.

And by the way, you get more bang for your buck in Chesterfield when it comes to buying.

21. Well, if and when you decide to move out this way,
I can hook you up with a great realtor. She is independent, so she is not tied to just one community.

23. Try this military name generator
maybe you can get some ideas from it

http://www.ubique.ch/codename/

Instead of moving to the suburbs you can say you're moving to "Pakistan"

And instead of moving you can say you're doing a "grounds strike operation"

You're move is now:

Operation Nomad Flight
