Eventually, you quit pointing fingers at the layout and start asking if you're the problem. Not because anything's disastrously broken. The bones are still standing. The ceiling's not leaking. On paper, everything works. But it also doesn't.

You keep twisting the same loose handle. You hop over that one tile that squeaks even though it's center stage. And the kitchen? A comedy of errors. You stand in it and think, *Who designed this triangle of chaos?* You don't even cook that much, but the placement is just wrong.

Most people don't update their place because they feel inspired. They do it because they've finally had enough.

That might sound harsh, but once a setup loses its use, it chips away at you. You patch it up — a lamp to hide the stain. But that doesn't change the truth: more info your home isn't yours anymore.

Some people rip everything out. Skip bins. Wall fragments for weeks. Others start small. A new tap here. A paint job there. It's not a matter of right or wrong. Just what you can handle.

Budgeting? Ha. That's a coin toss. You write a number down, feel realistic, and then something breaks. A pipe. A beam. A quote that forgot to mention VAT. You reconsider a skylight and cut something. (Not the dishwasher. Never the dishwasher.)

It's not about what the neighbour did. If dark green walls makes sense to you, then it makes sense. That's what matters.

Reality doesn't look like Pinterest. But the ones that match your pace? Those stick. You might have to spend more than you planned. Maybe more than a few. Depends on your patience.
