Actually, you have it pretty darn good. No offense, but from the way your post reads, you sound a little spoiled and pouty.

If the house bothers you that much, remodel. Move around a couple of walls, paint or whatever.

Wink Champagne tastes on a beer bottle budget

I’m sorry but I can’t have Champagne tastes on a beer bottle budget, however I try to enjoy whatever good things come my way and do the best I can with what I’ve got. Life is happy and simple that way for me.

Be frustrated at the housing market? Yes.

Being frustrated at your husband about the situation? No.

I have just had a beer and I am not a drinker, so take my advice for what it's worth cause it might would be a little different on another day. Of course u have the right to complain... But here's the thing about "hight class problems" they could alter ur relationship with ur spouse ultimately. Ingratitude and discontentment are not benign emotions. They may take u in a direction u don't want to go in like paying ur own rent/mortgage and seeing some hot rocking young babe living satisfied w/ ur spouse's in ur old home. See the good and be happy. It is a choice good luck.

Anything I complain about pales in comparison to what others are facing.
Sure, I can sit here and feel sorry for myself all day.
I have food, clean water, a hot shower, a matress and a pillow. (i'm not even in prison)
Most importantly I have people who love me.

Sounds to me like you dont appreciate what you have, and dont look on the other side of the fence at the brown dead grass.

Life is whatever you want to make out of it. How you handle it is under your control. You and only you have the power to change...

Nitram and I share the same philosophy on this one.

Seems in these tough economic times for so many, I become a little ashamed to voice my high class problems. But I want to complain .. so here's mine:

I want to move to a different house! I live in a spacious, lovely home. But it is the house my husband had before we were married and I want something we choose together.

What's YOUR high class problem... c'mon, I know you have one!
Maybe you need husband 3?
