We just moved from NH to MO. From my home to DH home. Right now were staying with his parents so we can save some money and hopefully buy soon.
Weve only been here a week but i am soooo homesick. I dont have a car right now and i dont know anyone or anything here. I just spend my days crying.
LO is also dealing with adjustment. She went from sleeping.630pm to 7am to now waking up twice in the middle of the night and up for the day at 5
Financially i will need to work, which freaks me out too because i left a job i loved and im afraid no other job is going to be what i want. Im feeling guilty that DH is working andnim home all day
Dont get me wrong im not sitting on my ass by any means. LO is extremely challenging right now and im also trying to get orgnaized as well as clean the disaster of a house we moved into.
Anyone ever dealt with anything similar and maybe have any advice? Thanks for taking the time to read. My friends back home are tired of my moaning and groaning im sure.

DH has family around but they all work all day.
Its just overwhelming because were staying with his parents right now and the house is a complete disaster...so im trying to work through that as well. Made orogress today to get the kitchen functioning while LO napped.
Today is a good day!!!
Getting outdoors was going to be my advice, but I see you've done that! Have you tried meeting some of your neighbors? If you're lucky, you might find a few you enjoy spending time with.
When I find myself sad or overwhelmed, I find a couple of things help.
Keeping a journal helps. I will write down a few psotive things every day. Either how blessed I am, or something that made me happy that day. You can even keep a sheet on the fridge that you see every day.
Scheduling anything helps me. Even if it's small, knowing I have something to do or look forward to helps. I personally LOVE organizing, so I'll schedule a task for each day. I look forward to it, and even plan for it all week.
Good luck to you girl. Hopefully this place in time feels more like home with all the memories you are going to make!
Journaling is an excellent idea!! Im super excited to go pick up a fun new journal to start!
My inlaws have really been amazing and working to make me feel comfortable. My SIL has taken tome to drive me around and point out things i might enjoy.
She is really money savvy as shes a SAHM with 5 kids...so im looking forward to learning some of her tricks.
Heres to this new adventure
Yes i found the dunkin!!!! Theres 1! Only 1... far reach from new england where there 1 maybe more on every single corner.
But when im a little homesick i get myself dunks
Ive been feeling much better lately. In the process of getting my nursing license changed then hopefully when im working i wont feel like such a lump.
I dont regret the move, but i wont like id rather be "home". Its hard to have no friends. But im trying to venture out a little bit. Im not very outgoing so its a little tough.
