My fairy lifemother...

Hello Sweet Pea!

One of the ideas that was presented to me on my Christmas Yankee Candle giveaway was to do a post on:

'Your thoughts personally about what your future plans are? E.g. a future fairy wish post! If your future fairy could grant you 3 wishes what would they be? Career? Marriage? Family? Visiting / moving to a new place?'

This was given to me by Carley from Talons and Posies, who's blog seems to have done a disappearing act and I'm gutted! I really hope it's a glitch because she's one of my favourite bloggers, and she's absolutely gorgeous! 

I thought this idea was fabulous, and so original. I love that she's gone to so much effort to think of something, so how could I not do it??

Wish 1 - Moving to a new place

I want to move over to the States ideally. I wan't the life with the beautiful old colonial house; think Bree from Desperate Housewives. I love the lifestyle over there, and I want to be somewhere where the sun shines on a much more regular basis! 

Wish 2 - 'Marriage'

It's no secret that I don't want to get married, you can see my views on that in this post. (I may however be tempted to marry if it involved Rachel Weiss. And Alex, I know you're reading this, so don't be coming home giving me grief. Two words; Penelope Cruz!) 

In all seriousness though, I do very much want to have a civil partnership. Although my relationship is not 'traditional', I myself am. As far as things go, I think you'll all have made the assumption that I'm the woman in our relationship, you're not going to catch Alex out in a dress on a Friday night at any point soon. I do have a very stereotypical female role in our house, and Alex is very much the male figure. We really are just like any other couple, and I would love to make our relationship official. We've been together over 2 years, have a beautiful home together and I can honestly say I can't imagine ever being with anyone else. 

Wish 3 - Career

Within the next year I will have won the Euromillions and will live in the lap of luxury for the rest of my life.

Or not.

It's always been expected that I'll go into Law as a career, since I mentioned when I was 14 that I might want to be a lawyer, the whole family latched on to it. If I'm honest, the idea fills me with both dread and despair. In my ideal world, I would love to have my own business. I thrive on common sense and I'm very streetwise, while education is incredibly important to me, I don't believe that you have to have a degree to be successful in life. One of the reasons why I love my blog so much, is that it's my own shot at something that I've grown myself. I hope in vain, that my blog might save me from my fate of a desk job.

------------------

And that, would be my ideal life! Hopefully, I might even manage to achieve all 3 rather than just 1 and 2. But that's something I'm working on. I have to say though, I love my life as it is now. I'm very fortunate and it's not something that I ever forget. 'Life passes you by while you're busy making grand plans' so I'm going to make sure I make the most of every single day, then even if I don't get these wishes, I'll have no regrets.

Have a wonderful day everyone,

Lea
