So the big move is over and done with. All my benefits have been cancelled. It's a nice feeling actually. Though I still feel a bit strange about the fact I'm now mostly living off my boyfriend's wages, given I make a pittance compared to him. Not that he's on a vast wage or anything. He's just earning a fair bit more. But I'm contributing to the household budget. I'm still financially independent, which is important to me after everything with The Ex. I'm feeling a lot better now. Still stressed, but to a much lesser degree. And all that's left to do is inform the odd person here and there. And a bit more unpacking. We're getting there though.
My daughter seems to have adjusted to the move very quickly. She had her bedroom sorted before long before my boyfriend or I had even managed to put our stuff into more organised piles. She hasn't done her holiday homework yet though. Despite my constant nagging. She has to design and make a model of a food making machine. She's done the design, but has yet to build the model. She'll get help with that of course. Joy.
