I’ve broken the challenge – the day got away from me!! 🙂 Our trip to Bowral went well, we saw some lovely houses, but it didn’t feel right. I’m trying to work out exactly to put into words everything that is boggling my brain.
Becasue we own our own business (it is 2 years stong) we have to think about it first and then us. Basically if we went to Bowral it would make the business suffer becasue Jusin needs to be one-on-one with clients, there is no IT industry in the town (a lot of retirerees and rick folk!!) and if we had no money we wouldn’t be able to live! The house prices were equivalent to that in Canberra so again it seemed silly to buy there for what we would get here anyway.
I was bitterly disappointed mainly becasue I want to move out of this place so bad, and I saw Bowral as the answer. Oh well. As much as it didn’t work out, it did make a few things clearer to us, and that is that we need a plan to aim towards to make sure that we are moving in the direction that we want to be going in. So that we can make the business thrive and run itself and leave us the time to enjoy ourselves. So today we started to look for houses in Canberra. We took a drive around to see what suburbs we like and the ones we don’t, and we’ll just keep going from there!!
Bsuy week nest week with concerts and parties and family events. Out tonight to a BBQ with friends – hmmm should I start the week with a hangover??? Probably not a great idea!
Hope you lovely lassies all had a great weekend – and any blokes who happen to be reading this!!

Good Luck with all the decisions Fran 🙂
Hope you had a great night last night.

It’s hard to blog on weekends I find – out of routine or something. Anyway I am secretly relieved B didn’t work out – though I am disappointed for you and understand your need for a change. Glad you had a merry time last night!!! Catch you soon. x
Sorry to read that Bowral didn’t work out Fran – I know how you had hoped that it might be the answer.
I am sorry to as Bowral is a bit closer to us! 😉
But it sounds like you are on the right path now – working out what is right for you and Justin and having a plan to work to.
xoxo
Hey Franny just reading your blog seems I’m just catching up with your news we must talk when you get here. Bowral might not have worked out but Fremantle is always a good option….
Hi Fran – have you considered sunny Queensland? Toowoomba is a very good educational centre – with lots of public and private schools for your beautiful girls! You would be nice and close to the coast (beach!)… and also close to Brisbane. Not to mention your fabulous cousins and Aunt… I bet there are lots of people who need IT services in this growing ‘city’ too…!
Promise me you will consider it!!!
Merry Christmas
