Moving is no fun!!!

Emotions are running hot. So is the temperature. The kids are bored. I'm running out of time to get way too many things done. These last few days have been a bit stressful. Its time like these that I imagine homeschooling being a total nightmare. Sometimes, I need my kids to go away. That is not much of a reality in our Southern California life. The village I long for is pretty non-existent here. I have learned to accept it. It is what it is. Don't get me wrong there is a handful of wonderful people in our lives. I know I can turn to anyone of them if need be. However, it seems most have good intentions but lack in available time. Myself included. Life here is fast. It's busy. The reality is if a relationship matters to you, you will make time for it.  It almost feels like we have already moved. To some people we are already gone. We have slipped from our spot on their to-do list. We are leaving soon, it may be easier to let the distance begin to grow now. I understand. In a way, I feel the same way. Our life in San Diego can be very lonely. I am reminded as to another reason why we are moving. In the big picture, I believe it is what's best for my family. In the here and now....it's sad, overwhelming and NO FUN!
