Growing Pains

Sunday 16 March 2014

The move is starting to catch up with me and for the past couple of weeks, I have been feeling a series of up and down emotions. One minute I feel settled and grounded, the next minute it’s all unfamiliar and foreign again. I’ve been grumpy, ecstatic and inconsolable all in one day. As I go through the motions and try to find some semblance of normality again, things are still a little erratic around here. On the plus side, living in the new city means my weekends often look a lot like this:

  1. Well so far your blog posts have been fabulous and I think that what you're going through is pretty normal. Keep your head up girlfriend! You're in a good place.

  2. Moving is always such a big transition. You will make it!

  3. Your weekends make me so jealous. And it takes some time to settle in so don't worry about not adjusting completely yet. I've lived here for a year and I'm still finding my way around

  5. I feel always so displaced after a move. The last time we moved was nearly 11 years ago (I am SO restless, you can't even imagine!), and I still have very distinct memories of how "off" I felt for so long. Not myself. Not "at home." Not connected to anything. It takes a lot longer than we think it will (which is both reassuring and a big bummer!).

  6. it'll get easier. I know that probably doesn't help you right now, but maybe knowing that other people have been and are going through the same things might.

  7. I am worried I'd be finding myself in that situation quite soon too but it is only natural. Don't worry, we'll get through it all.
