My sil and her dh just finished building thier "dream home" we finally saw it, and it is amazing. We bought a townhouse a few months ago, and did full renos and it looks really good...or so I thought until I saw hers. It's huge, heated floors, all the furniture is new, she got rid of all thier other furniture. She even paid someone to come in and organize thier closets. I can't even begin to describe the kitchen...how much $$$ does her husband make??? She only works 2 days a week, and has a nanny come in a few times a week to watch the kids, and cook and clean. aarrggghhhh, I hate being green with envy! What did dh & I do wrong! lol, my dh keeps saying to me "at least we have our health," and my personal fav is "we did our house ourselves, with love" gag!!! I know he's right, but I really need to win the lottery!

He is so right about having health. My friend sounded exactly like you when talking about her only sister. Then a year after sis got her dream house, her daughter (6 yrs old- the look of health) was dx'ed with a rare cancer. That dream house is lovely, but she'd give it all up if she could get a magical pill to cure her little girl.
There will always be people that have more... and people that have LESS. Remember that and pray that you don't get to that point of ever truly understanding what I mean.
