    I could go back if OH went back as well (he's Canadian as well) but otherwise, no. I couldnt/wouldnt take the kids away from him-he is too much a part of their lives to only see 2 times a year. I am going to ask him if we can SERIOULSY consider going back-we often talk about it but I am going to say I want to, NOW.

    I hope you'll still come on here bun!!!!!!

    And when's the Canadian DFW bbq?

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Try to think back as to what brought you to England in the first place.

    I've been here 12 years
    Came over because OH wanted to live here !!! his parent s are British and he liked it-thought it'd be interesting for a change and stayed...

    Problem is, he loves his job and wouldnt necessarily get to do the same thing back in Canada. I dunno
