Decisions part 2

4 December 2014

Ok I have walked Patterson, and have been doing some research and well I still have no idea.  Stimpy knows something is going on - she has come out of hiding and is smooching all over me.
You know I think it would be easier if we were told we had to move to another country, we flew over for two weeks to have a look at the house, school and get a feel for the area, flew home and started to pack up the house and the pets.

While the city is only 1 hour away in a way it feels like the end of the Earth, I know it is going to sound weird but this house is where I bought my children home from the hospital and watched them go off to their first day of school I have grown very attached to this house.
I knew this move was coming, and I expected it last year and when it din't happen I pushed to the back of my mind and now that it has happened I am a complete wreck which is silly.  The kids well I have sold the move to them and that was the easy part it is my fears that I now have to get over, the voice in my head is saying put on your big girl knickers and grow up it is just a house and your home is wherever your family is.
My Step-Dad was a Policeman so it is not like I am not used to moving, as a child I lived in 6 different towns, so you had the new kid thing happening all of the time.  I just remember how much it sucked and I think that is my worst fear especially for my kids - you get all of this attention cause you are new and then they don't want to know after that.

Ok I have had my cry and now it is time to get my big girl knickers on, it is time to look it this academically ( the facts, without bias, without emotion and with logic and research).  I will be blogging everyday - except when we move and don't have internet, will even try to link it to my Youtube channel ( haven't uploaded a video before) to chronicle the process and the move.

So now as I wade through mountains of research I will be thinking of this new adventure our family is going to be taking and together well we can do anything ( even as I am saying this my inner Kylie is laughing at me and offering a big box of tissues!!)
