Catch Up | We're Moving...Again!

So... back in the Friends days... Monica is moving in with Chandler and has a moment when it all becomes very real and she starts stressing about having to live with a boy!

Rewind to a year ago and this was my reality.

Myself and my boyfriend had decided we would move in together which is obviously an extremely exciting step in anyone's relationship.

Exciting... yet stressful, difficult, challenging are some of the other words I would use to describe the situation.

Having both never lived solely with a significant other it was super scary too.

Even the beginning of the process... when you're starting to look at where you're going to live makes for very interesting discussions. I thought this was meant to be easy?!

Then you finally find somewhere you both love and have to wait... "patiently" to find out if you get accepted. 

Next, the packing begins and you both find a whole host of shit that you think you will easily be able to hide so you can keep it... this doesn't work!

We eventually moved in to a lovely 2 bedroom place on the outskirts of our hometown, with a gorgeous kitchen that had a stable door (my favourite room of the house).

It was lovely, and we made it our own little home. This is when we also found out about Logan and Wade and brought them home to complete our little family. 

Unfortunately, when I got ill, before my surgery, I had a lot of time off of work and we needed to find somewhere cheaper. 

Luckily, my uncles house came up for rent around about our 6 month mark - our luck was in!

We moved in to another 2 bedroom house in our hometown, with a cute garden and a massive kitchen with skylights. 

As much as we love this house and have again made it our own, we have come to realise we aren't getting any younger. 

We both want to eventually buy our own house and to do that we need to save save save!

Jack's parents have been super kind in allowing us to move back in with them, which we will be doing at the end of March. 

We have all the same emotions coming back as we did in the beginning of this journey, as it's a completely new step for us. 

Although it seems we are moving backwards, we know it's for the long term gratification. (although we may need to keep reminding ourselves of this)

I'm excited about our new adventure, and hopefully by the end of 2019 I will be showing you around our own house that we have brought ourselves!

Have any of you gone through this process with your other halves?

How did you find it?

Much Love,
