Over the years I have
moved house many times. The number of times I had moved house had
reached double digits by the time I hit my teenagers years and since
then I have moved quite a few times again.
When I was a child
moving house was quite an exciting time and as we thankfully always
stayed in the area I never had the upheaval of new schools or saying
goodbye to friends. Whilst my mum had the all the hassle of dealing
with the paperwork and hard work of moving house my sister and I just
had the excitement of settling in to a new house with new bedrooms
that we could decorate to our own taste and lots of boxes to play with once the unpacking had been done!
Since the first time I
left home and set up in a new house all by myself when I was 18
(unfortunately quite a few years now) I have had to deal with the
process of looking for a house, dealing with the paperwork and the
hard work of moving all my belongings from one house to another. Now
that I have experienced the responsibility of moving house a few
times I can relate to what my mum dealt with many times during my
childhood and can honestly say that moving house is a stressful
experience.
