A look back and a look forward

Happy New Year! A year of new beginnings? I hope not! I liked 2012, so I am hopeful it's just a continuation of what path we were on!
So where was I twelve months ago?
I spent the day on the phone to air Asia because they cancelled my flights to Europe! I was worried at the time that we had lost our money! All was ok and we went! Defiantly a first world problem, and we went to Europe with no money lost.......thank you AirAsia, KLM, and travel associates.

Where was I five years ago?
The year was 2008, and Miss 8 was three, mr teen was 8. We lived in our little house and had just put in our severey window on our deck. My Mum was alive and well. I did not know it at the time but life was pretty much perfect. Well at leat that's what my memory tells me.

Where was I ten years ago?
The year was 2003. I remember in January 2003, My Mr, Mr teen who was three and I went camping in Noosa. It was during this holiday that we decieded it was time to give Mr three a baby brother or sister, only to return home and to find out that my sister was pregnant. This was not upsetting but my mother telling me that I should not be consider getting pregnant as I would be destroying my sisters limelight. I was deverstated!!!!
Funnily enough a few months later I broke Mum's rules and fell pregnant! And I didn't steal my sisters precious limelight! and Mum really didn't care, she was delighted to have a granddaughter.

So much happiness and sadness in my past. But for every hurdle the is twice as many smiles
So where am I going?

Where do I see my self in one year?
In a year I see myself on our new deck organising what will be Miss ten's birthday party, hopefully Mr 14, will still be giving hugs and my Mr will be will be busy doing his Masters project. I too will have done at least one subject of my masters.

Where do I see myself in five years?
 2018 Our renovation completed.....phew.
Mr teen studying at university and Miss eight will be 13 going on 14 and in her chosen high school and happy.
Mr will be happy in his job and debts will be on their way out.
I will have finished my masters and defiantly working full time.

Where do I see myself in ten years?
2023
Mr teen will be 23 and completed Uni, he probably will still be at home, but busy living his life.
Miss eight will be 18, almost 19 and at Uni and happy.
We will have done our white Christmas somewhere in the world as a family a few years before.
Our debts will be paid.
We will still be happily married and working to pay for our travels (sorry guys)

I'm realistic I know there will be bumps but I am planning on withstanding the bumps. I'm planing on enjoying life.
