It's understandable, you are leaving half your life behind. Most of us are taking at least 75% of our lives with us. My heart goes out to you as it is a really difficult decision.

Whatever you decide and whatever you do, life will be good!

I agree with the others that you should talk to Dave as it is important that you have his support to help you.

I think dropping your dog off with his new family the other day has hit you harder than you expected and you are feeling very emotional which has made you start to question what you are doing.

For what it is worth i think that you should remember that you are making this decision for you and Dave. Yes your family are hugely important to you - but remember you are still going to have them in your life whatever you decide.

Things must be so difficult for you at the moment - sending loads of (((hugs)))

Somme- hope you are feeling better this morning. Remember, if you aren't happy over there you can always come back.

Still feeling sick this morning, stomach churning, now it looks like we've sold the house everything seems real rather than the distant dream it has been for ages.
OH at work again today and I have to go to his parents to set up their new laptop and wireless network so I will be the one to break the news about the house. Not looking forward to it, MIL had tears in her eyes when we showed her our visa labels.

Somme bless you hope you have managed to have a sleep. You have to remember the reasons you chose to do it in the first place but only you and Dave can decide.

Hugs and kisses to you

Morning Amanda,

What a shame you didn't have a good night. Never mind, I'm sure there will be more good nights to come when you're not so stressed!

Good luck with your packing. That's the bit I'm not looking forward to. Trying to get rid of stuff beforehand, but not really succeeeding.

Sorry, we're off to Adelaide, so we won't see you in Perth. I'm sure Daunted is off to Perth though.

Good luck with the move.

HI Amanda
We are going to Perth 26th November. It has been a long journey and it ia as though you are getting rid of everything in your life whether good or bad. I think everyone feels very raw when going through this. Hope all goes well for you with MIL, mine kept breaking down and laying the big guilt trip on me Why not stay just get a smaller house, have a baby, get a business here etc. It is hard for them to get their heads around why you want to leave.


Somme

Really feeling for you at the moment, as usual lots of good advice on here. Just wanted to say thinking of you

Hope the house sales and viewings pick up for all of you still waiting.

Nicky

Afternoon all,

Well, a mountain of washing and ironing has been done - with only quick peeps at the WPHS thread. LOL.

OH and DD are concientiously trashing the house which I spent all yesterday tidying and cleaning. grr. I wish it would sell and then I could stop this cleaning lark - I don't have time for it. LOL.

Had to laugh at your post Dan, that's exactly how I feel.

Hope to see you in Adelaide sometime then Amanda!! I guess it'll just be you and me on the thread for a while as we are planning to stay in rented if we sell too. Although I want to be there by Dec 08 AT THE VERY LATEST! Are you listening the God of house sales and visas???
