I need to get on top of this. It’s been 3 days since we booked the tickets and I can’t seem to get out of this funk. I knew this move was going to be painful, but I thought the excitement of new things would balance out the sadness of going. So far, it hasn’t and all I can focus on is how much I don’t want to go. I wasn’t prepared for it to hit me this hard. I feel like crying all the time.
I know that how successful this move is for me is down to me. I know it’s my own attitude that makes the difference. I know I need to get on top of this and turn it around. I’m just finding that really difficult to do.
Robin Pascoe – Homeward Bound. Be sure to read it soon and don’t leave it too long after hitting the ground state-side. Every situation is as unique as each individual, but I think the message and tone of Robin’s book will help see you through this very normal and very understandable funk, and any funk you might experience once you’re “home”.
Sarah, thanks for that! Your comment came just as I was finishing an order at Amazon, so I quickly added that book. It looks good. Cheers for the suggestion! 🙂
