lemons vs lemonade

I could be pissed - I've worked really hard to up my income, pay down my debt, and increase my savings, and it's still not enough for an abode upgrade, especially in MD. My pre-approval loan amount is laughable. No way would I be able to afford a decent place in a safe neighborhood on that amount. Hell, given what my condo appraised for, I wouldn't even be able to afford to buy where I live now! I'd have to downgrade further!

I could be pissed, but I'm not (I think it's hilarious, actually). The currently cruel world did not count on the fact that I Have Plans for my condo, and a redecorating schedule has already been worked out and can be afforded without too much loss in savings, and will cheer me up also. So there.
