> I will acknowledge that owning a house is sometimes like having an extra part time job. I'm forever fixing little things or gardening or changing things about the house. I consider this to be a new hobby, but if you consider it work then that's something else to consider.

This is good to know and confirms what I've noticed about homeowners. I hate maintaining stuff, whether it's my car or my furniture or whatever, and I only do it if the time/money tradeoff is worth it. Some homeowners seem delighted by it though, crafting their own castle and the like. Do you have time for other hobbies that are "big" with these tasks?
