["I moved house recently, from an absolute dump. The new place isn't huge, but it's perfect for me.", "That's one of the most responsible things you can do. I'm sure your family is proud of you.", "Well, I live alone, but I'm certainly proud of myself for finally moving. Now I can focus on work."]
You're taking steps in the right direction I get a feeling you're doing alright for yourself out there.
I moved into a new house recently. And while it isn't a mansion, it fits my needs perfectly.
