Going back must have felt really great, except for the fact that you had to leave again. That quote is amazing. And I love what you wrote about it echoing inside you. Such a beautiful and poignant image. I hope that your new home feels more and more homey every single day. And always remember, all your internet friends are always here, just a keystroke away.

Pretty much everyone's a mover... and pretty much all of you put my measley 350 miles to shame....<br /><br />Mad Mummy - you're so right, and I'm sure that the ease with which the girls have settled in is part of what's making the whole transition so comparatively easy.<br /><br />Livi - sorry, wasn't meant to be sad as such, but it is a big change and I think I'm only just realising. <br /><br />Chic Mama - that's what my mum keeps saying: with the girls around I'll make friends before I know it. And in the meantime, I have you lot!<br /><br />Iota - as ever, wise words. Effort, here I come (even if, as PM says, it's exhausting!). Those future Scottish friends don't know what's coming...<br /><br />PM - I'm looking forward to that post. Seriously. Would be lovely to get someone else's take on the whole moving thing, even if yours is rather bigger than mine. <br /><br />Mwa - I know you do. In fact I've been thinking about your making friends posts a lot recently. How's it going? Any tips?<br /><br />Pants with Names - I couldn't get to sleep in the end because he kept sniggering... Your boys have a lot to answer for!<br /><br />That aside, thank you. I know it will get easier, and to be honest, it's not even that hard, but it means alot, coming from someone who's moved a really long way!Harriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975259590293860488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432382804917497650.post-10175497428028418282010-06-02T22:47:26.976+01:002010-06-02T22:47:26.976+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Harriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975259590293860488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432382804917497650.post-10012109028526679242010-06-01T21:52:44.364+01:002010-06-01T21:52:44.364+01:00It is always hard, it always takes time but in the...It is always hard, it always takes time but in the end it is always worth it. One day you'll wake up and realise that were you to go back to your old home, you'd be a stranger and you are more at home in your new home. But it is hard work there for a while.<br /><br />PS - glad Mr. Plan B enjoyed the poo jokes...Pants with Nameshttp://www.pantswithnames.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432382804917497650.post-65421657262824674802010-06-01T17:18:04.345+01:002010-06-01T17:18:04.345+01:00I know that feeling all too well.

And ...I totaly know what you're writing about. And the putting down roots, and making friends, whilst exciting and fun, can also be exhausting. Always having to smile. Always having to be 'on' in public. Always - oh, looks like I'm starting to write the post I can't put up on my own blog because some of my new neighbours might read it... (Let me know if you ever need a guest blogger, won't you?!). Anyway, it will get better, I promise.Potty Mummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04751869800592294891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432382804917497650.post-57327554532011137332010-06-01T05:11:55.619+01:002010-06-01T05:11:55.619+01:00It will take a while.

Believe me you will feel 'at home' and part of the community...it takes time and the fact that you have such little ones will make it so much easier. Fingers crossed it is a quick transition.
