I Might Not Be On Here For A Little While...

I have been here in Virginia since the age of 8! Ironically when I was 8 I didn't want to leave Pennsylvania!I never want to leave . I will travel but Virginia is home. Enough about me, I'm sooooo happy for you. It is normal to be nervous but you will have Hubby and All of you will make friends. Southerners are very friendly. Tell Hubby Mazel Tov! Finally to see something good happen to good people. Ok. I will just think no news is good news! Now the fun part Packing!Take care.

Any move for a family is always worrysome. There is a lot of uncertainty that goes with it. But it's great that there are already some guarantees on the place that you are moving too. I'm sure that if it's for the betterment of the family, it would be all worth it. Goodluck to you and your family!

It is great to know that your husband found a job as they can be hard to find right now. Also, I would love to move out of state. I have only done it once, but I would love to again. I didn't want to come back when we did, but had too. I wish you the best and I bet you will love it in Alabama.

I am happy for you. That is a very good opportunity for your whole family.Better job with better privileges and I believe higher pay. But you are nervous! Well, I do understand why you are nervous. Moving out to another place can really bring some anxiety to anyone. Of course it is a new place and you don't really know exactly how you can cope. Nevertheless, just expect for the best and surely you will be fine. I've never really experienced moving out to another place. I have experienced transferring to a new home but not really out of the town where I was born. I don't think I would like to move out from my native town. I have grown so accustomed to this place and besides my whole clan is living here so I would prefer living here for the rest of my life till God calls me to leave for my eternal home.

I have never moved out of state. Always been in Minnesota. But congratulations to your husband on the new job. Luckily you won't be alone in the transition - as your hubby and kids will be with you throughout the entire time. I would imagine it's scary at first to move out of your comfort zone, to live in a totally new place, but I would imagine that given time you will adjust to it (and hopefully love it!) Good luck to ya!

Congratulations are in order!! The family will be back together again soon..Yeh, I know the jitters. I had them back in 1987 when Liz and I moved to Atlanta from 'home' in Cincinnati but I got over them as 'home' drifted further south..You'll be fine..Enjoy!

Happy to know that you will be joining your husband in his new place. I am sure you'll be pretty busy settling down in your new home and hope you can overcome your anxiety and nervousness. It is normal to have mixed feelings when uprooting yourself to a new environment but you'll soon get over it and feel at home in your adopted state. When I move to a new district some years ago it took me a while to adopt myself to the new environment and make new friends.

And there you were, all worried about not being able to manage it a little while ago! The combined positive thoughts of MyLot have obviously reconfigured the universe (or at least Alabama) and created what you needed. It's magic! I'm always nervous when I move, though I've done it so much that national moves don't bother me so much any more. I was very nervous when I moved to France (from the UK) though, with the language difference and everything. My fears are always the same ones: learning to find my way around, whether the neighbours will be insufferable, how the medical stuff will be (for the person I care for), whether the landlord will be a nutcase or not. The usual. Just remember to pack your undies. Everything else is easy if you've got comfortable underwear.

I am so happy to hear about this. Thanks God he was able to find something that will make life a little better. Something about new beginnings that get me excited and I am excited for you. Fear of the unknown is always at the back of our minds when embarking on this type of journey. But have faith in who you are. You know you can handle just about anything that comes. Just kick the dust off your shoes and move on up girl. My prayers and best wishes go with you. Hot dang, Alabama! lol Hope to hear from you soon. A whole new chapter of discussions here.

good luck to you and to your family. mylotters will surely miss you but we know that you will be back when everything is settled down. I haven't experience moving far but i know what you feel. Being excited for the new beginnings and at the same time being nervous about the new environment, new neighbors. so i hope everything will go well. keep us posted. take care.

i've never moved out of state as such, as we don't have states here, but i have moved to a town away from my town that was an hour and a halfs drive away. it doesn't seem like much but northern ireland is a small place so to actually move that distance is a big thing. thats so strange because i just left a comment under your other discussion saying could you not move to be with him lol! i have magic powers! i wish you all the best though, and take care, just incase i forget to say it before the moving date!

Awww Congrats LovingMyBabies.. Im going to be moving too soon, just has to be all confirmed.. Im petrified (*in a good way though*)..so may things to organize, things to buy..just more excitement I think in my case atm.. Its a new adventure, me and my new arrival (",) Good Luck to you and I wish you all the happiness..
