House envy

With the way it is with the rental market at the moment I am just grateful that I do own my own house it’s only a three bedroom terrace but I love it..
In my area to rent a three bedroom house of Any description is about £1200 a month….

We live in a small 3 bed terraced house in London which we were very lucky to be able to buy because it was by no means cheap. My older sister also lives in London but in a large semi with a big garden and four beds. She was a headteacher and her husband a solicitor and they only have one son, so they are very well to do. But I don’t envy her at all, I love my little house and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else, my sister is a widow now and feels increasingly lonely and stressed in such a big house that she finds hard to maintain.
I would never want a bigger house at my age, especially now that I care for my DH, and keeping the place tidy and clean is much more doable.

I don't really understand that. I really love my home. It's not huge but too big for us unless family arrive.

But, it's our family home and that is what counts.

No, house envy of friends homes has never occurred to me. For much the same reason I never envied them their husbands or children.

I always preferred our home, (all of them, regardles of size) my husband, and our children.

Never. Just grateful we have a roof over our heads.
Feel so sorry for young people today that can’t get a leg up the property ladder.
