@porven Same. I crave time completely alone with no one speaking to me or asking me for anything, yes, but not adult interaction -- LOL.

@mickaela I have an early riser, too. He's always up by 6am, no matter what time he goes to bed. He's usually up around 5-5:30am. Honestly? We have a "wake up time is 7am" rule. If he wakes up before that, he's watching TV. I'm not proud. But I need sleep to function. He's 4 1/2 years old now...

@rogger I relate to this SO MUCH. I absolutely wish we would have bought a larger "starter" home because, surprise! It's our forever home now. I thought we would start our family here, but then size up... We're in an average cost-of-living small city but there is a massive housing shortage...

@steve293000 You're totally right but (as someone "stuck" in a small house) I've shifted my thinking on this a bit. We're going to be here for life, so I'm not looking for a monetary return on my renovation/expansion investments. I'm looking for a long-term quality-of-living return!
