We built and moved to our own home 16 years ago. Something we together planned and created from the scratch on an empty lot. Ten years after the yard finally started looking nice - then we swapped houses with spouse's parents. We got a bigger house, but it was built 30 years ago, so I planned we could renovate and rearrange the garden, and it would be fine.
The swapping was something my husband wanted, because we took over the little farm his parents owned and he rather wanted us living in the same yard where the farming buildings are.
However the renovations are still on-going, after 6 years. Delayed due to hubby having too much to do, daughter being born, money... My enthusiasm for decorating has died, it has taken so long and I'm getting regrets over some choices we've made.
Besides the in-laws made some changes on the house and lot, which I wouldn't have done, so this makes me also unhappy.
This "goal" to own the land never really was mine, I've just been following the path my husband was destined to take since childhood - I merely accepted the thought - so this probably doesn't quite reply to the topic.
