A new life...

Thank you to everyone who commented on my post last week.  It certainly has given me food for thought!!

I have been learning Spanish for over a year now and am now on my second year, although I am finding it very tiring working full time and being 7 months pregnant also!  It is keeping my brain ticking over and I am amazed at what I already understand and can converse with confidence (most of the time!) until people start speaking English!

We are definitely going to rent first, we won't just straight in with a mortgage in case it isn't for us and things don't work out, I think that is the most sensible option so far.  It looks like it will be another 6 months from now so i can have my daughter and get my head around that before upheaving us all to more stress and chaos!!  A huge pull for me is that my mum will be going first so i can learn from her mistakes (if any!) and take advise from her!  We are looking at a franchise option at the moment which seems like the best option but we do have a lot of research to do and need to find the right option for us.

I am definitely feeling more positive now and what ever decision we do make is for the children first and foremost, then for ourselves.  My main concern is work and I am willing to try my hand and new things and do something compleley different.  

Thank you for all your kind words of advice, it is a great comfort to know that so many compassionate people are there already and are making Spain there home!
