Okay so for a long time Fern has had this dream of moving down under (emigrating to Australia) She's found a job that is loosely related to her previous pre self employed days in Art Therapy. In Sydney, New South Wales she's also seen a house on the internet she quite likes. The only problem is I'm rather comfortable here in the UK I'm close to my parents and family members, the kids are happy where they are, not to mention the fact of the matter being i'd have to sell the business and house - both of which are very close to my heart.
Fern says she wants to do something like this before we loose the chance. But if I'm honest I'm not ready to leave everything we have over here. I can see the financial and lifestyle benefits of a move to Australia but we would have to give up everything and there's not much chance I could find a job in something I would want to do.
I'm just not sure if its really the best thing to do. Or atleast according to my sensible head, if I'm honest my heart does say give it a try and see where life takes you. But I have a bad habit of listening to the Mr Sensible side of my head. I'm the last person who wants to hold Fern back from her dreams but I'm aware that this doesn't just affect me or her but everyone we know.
