A vivid portrait of feelings at a point in time - it only gets better from there.

I feel like I am going to have these same emotions when we make the transition. Not an easy phase, despite the excitement of your new journey. Maybe I can borrow Mallow when I have to have my cry. Hugs.

💕💕 It’s so hard when the people were (and still are) so lovely.

This made me reflect on the two experiences I had when I started 2 jobs last year. I work in education so there were a lot of people I has to meet and remember the names of (students and parents/families). There were other challenges at first but things I've gotten better now that I'm 5 months into my new job

Hope you can find some exciting things to do in your new space and community!
