A fresh start

Wow, I did not realise how long it had been since the first post.

Nearly five years ago I expressed a wish about relocating...and nearly five years later not only am I in the same country, but I am in the same home.

Well that will be changing at least as tonight we signed the lease to a bigger home.

Yesterday though I said to my partner that we have spent too much time wasting about thinking about doing something, but actually doing nothing about it.

I said to him that we need to set a time limit of five years and look to actually do something in that. It will either be a move up to the far north of Scotland or moving abroad.

Others have managed it, so I do not see why we cannot manage it.

Though I think I will really have to pester him as he is a worst procrastinator than what I am.

So for now what I am planning on doing is while I am in the process of moving house:

• Both of us are going to make a list of the countries that we would like to live on and get one that we can both agree on (as much as I would like to live in France, my partner really does not seem interested at all) He would like to live in Australia and he has family that might be able to help us out, but I am not sure about that either.
• On the list we are to point out the pros and cons about moving there. 
• Look at eachothers list and work out where we both want to move to.
• Create a moving fund and starts saving money (moving will be expensive)

I think that if we can make the joint decisiojn about where we will move to then it will make it easier to make a target and actually make a move toward it. Up till now I have just been thinking about the idea, rather than actually doing something about it.

Here is to a fresh start

Europe

Recently I have had thoughts about moving to France.

I have realised that moving to Canada is too difficult at the moment.

Somewhere in Europe is more attainable for us.

However talking with my partner tonight he mentioned that he would like to move to Bavaria.

I like the sound of that a lot.

Now I just need to work out how we can actually make this a reality.

The 29th

This date only comes around once every four years.

I wonder where I will be when the next 29th February comes around.

Plans for 2012

Happy New Year

I will make some plans for what I should be doing. I am not sure I will be able to do anything until my partner has finished college.

However, I can be prepared for when he does.

I need to make out a list of all the things that I need to find out about (finding a home, moving stuff, changing schools, changing Sky, telephone etc.)

Bye 2011

Another year gone

Happy Christmas

Happy Christmas.

Happy Winter Solstice

Happy Winters Solstice

So where am I at with my relocation.

Answer, Oops nowhere different to where I was before.

However in my defense, there is not a lot I can do at the moment as until my partner finishes college anything could happen.

We could plan on moving to a place, my partner then could be offered a job somewhere different so the plans would have to change.
