Since it's Friday, let's play the 'ask me a question' game again. And if you ask me a question, I'll ask you one in return -- if you want :) Any topic, but don't expect answers on anything too TMI or personal.
I've never been to Oregon, but that sounds like a fantastic day - interesting beach, cozy indoors, book, WINE.. Very nice indeed.
Ok, me in 10 years. Right. First off, I hope to be living in New Zealand, preferably in the Marlborough Sounds region but more likely Christchurch or Blenheim, where hubby's family is mostly located.
As for what I'd be doing.. by the time we get to NZ we should have enough cash to buy a decent house outright, or a larger place with a relatively small mortgage (exchange rates are wonderful and my family's company is currently up for sale - unbelievably, I get 10%). This should mean that neither of us has to work full time and can therefore spend more time with the kids that don't exist yet. I don't think I could be a housewife though, much as I like pottering around, so am hoping to buy or start very a small business - exactly what changes on a regular basis, but this week's idea is tours (walking, cycling, motorcycling, minibus..) of wherever we end up. NZ is the size of Great Britain with only 4 million people.. plenty of countryside, and most of it's gorgeous :)
