Making a decision is the easy part. Having to live with the consequences of the decision is much harder.

That marrying the boy next door may have been easier. (I'll keep him though as he's quite lovely).
I HATE paper work.
I LOVE my family and friends.
There is more to life than a pretty place.
That what is a good idea one day can change the next.
That life is good so long as those I love are happy and well.
There is no perfect place, there is no perfect time.....
Life is good.

I have learned that after 3 attempts at Oz life...it's the UK we call home!!

I have learned that no matter how many friends you make, it's no substitute for family!!

I have learned that when my Daughter cried at leaving her Grandma when she was 4, she will never "just get over it"!!

I have learned that 3 attempts in Oz will zero your bank account

I have learned that time goes pretty slow when you are living in limbo land!

I have also learned that going to Ikea is a bad idea when you know you can't buy anything as we are selling everything to go back!! (went with a friend)

IKEA is ALWAYS a bad idea! I used to go for a pot plant or a set of cutlery and return with a bed, or a futon......it was never less than 3 figures!

Family and Friends are everything.

I would prefer to be irritated or annoyed by my family than not have them around at all. I left over 6 years ago. My son was 8 and my daughter 6 they have grown up without grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins...They can never get that time back.
