We Are Moving And I Am Very Stressed Out!

Please Share!

We Are Moving And I Am Very Stressed Out! So, we are moving from Washington state to Idaho tomorrow. I am so stressed out because I have a ton of stuff to still pack up, blog posts to do and family to take care of. GAH. The stress is weighing down on all of us. Plus, moving is expensive! My poor hubby has a whole yard and shop to pack up while I do the house. Crazy how much stuff we have accumulated :/ I can’t believe all the moving boxes and bags I have in my home right now!

We Are Moving And I Am Very Stressed Out!

We Are Moving And I Am Very Stressed Out!

My hubby is out right now, grabbing the second moving truck (we are driving two of the largest ones and will still have to come back a few times for more stuff, sigh…) and I will be pulling a trailer with my truck. I have never pulled a trailer before let alone for 11 hours, so, there is that. Wish me luck! Wish us luck :/

We Are Moving And I Am Very Stressed Out!

After we move this house, I will also have to come back and scrub it down, vacuum it, and patch up a few things. We lived here for about 6 years, so lots of stuff to do and move!

I just wanted to let you all know what I was up to, in case go missing in action. I will be missing for a few days. Just know I am busy busy busy but will be back soon ๐Ÿ™‚

We Are Moving And I Am Very Stressed Out!

During this move, my hubby had numerous things happen. The road trip to our new home is no walk in the park! So far he has had THREE tires blow out from his trailer and he totaled our truck ๐Ÿ™ I am so thankful he is alright and he got the help he needed.

We Are Moving And I Am Very Stressed Out!

Thank heavens my hubby knew what to do after he had an accident. If you do not know what to do after an accident, please check out the ‘After An Accident Tips. They are very helpful and could save a life!

    Yes, I moved from Japan to NY.

    I am fortunate to not to have had to move far away. I still live close to where I grew up.

  5. Sherry Conrad says

    I have moved many, many times, as far away as from Alaska to Florida with 4 kids by myself. I personally LOVE moving. <3 A fresh start, new places to explore and friends to make.

  6. Sand says

    Yes, after college I moved away. But it didn’t work out.

  7. Leah Shumack says

    March 28, 2016 at 6:53 pm

    Not really. Moved away for college which was about 30 minutes away and then back home and then into my own home 10 minutes away and been here ever since!

  8. Buddy Garrett says

    March 28, 2016 at 4:11 pm

    Ues we moved 454 miles. It isn’t fun.

    No I have never moved far away although some days I would love to.

  10. Julie says

    March 28, 2016 at 4:08 pm

    I have, and it was a huge hassle. It is a good time to get rid of unnecessary stuff though.

  11. elizabeth miller says

    March 28, 2016 at 4:01 pm

    the last move we made was local but we did it with 3 kids. I said then never again until they are out of the house. But, growing up, my parents were Dupont and we moved all over, all the time. My son is military and does the same. They just went completely across country last year/

  12. Melissa Williams says

    Farthest I have moved is 9 hours away!

  13. Rosey says

    March 28, 2016 at 9:26 am

    Good luck. It’ll be over before you know it. ๐Ÿ™‚ I recently moved from Michigan to Florida.

  14. Courtney R. says

    March 28, 2016 at 7:29 am

    I’ve only moved a town away, but seems like every time we move it is a diaster. Once we discovered mold, twice we needed to get a larger living space, so I agree, moving is so stressful!

  15. Shannon says

    March 27, 2016 at 10:08 pm

    I have never moved further than 30 miles away from my house.

  16. Diana C says

    March 27, 2016 at 5:59 pm

    We moved from the Kansas City area to Austin, TX then back under two years

  17. Docia Vagnerini says

    March 27, 2016 at 7:53 am

    The furthest away I have moved so far has been about 4 hours apart but in the very near future I will be moving about 15 to 16 hours away ๐Ÿ™‚

  18. Jenny Scheldberg says

    March 26, 2016 at 5:21 pm

    I’ve only moved within my state but moving DOES suck. It’s so stressful.

  19. Carolyn Daley says

    March 25, 2016 at 10:12 pm

    No, I never had to move very far. I was 3 1/2 hours away from home when I went to UCF.

  20. Shannon G says

    I actually moved far away from California to…Idaho! as a kid. It was a culture shock for me at the time – a small town that closed down on Sundays and had no real traffic light was a big change from “two miles to Disneyland” – but now that I’m older, I often wish we could move back. It’s a great place to raise kids, the Twin Falls area has AWESOME fishing in the Snake River (plus fish hatcheries to tour), and there are many beautiful places to visit (I like the Sawtooth Mountains.) Take a deep breath and enjoy your new home!

    Thanks for the giveaway and good luck to everyone!

  21. Tina W says

    March 24, 2016 at 4:04 pm

    I’ve only moved within the state of California, but my last move was 600 miles and involved a long drive with 2 cats in crates. No fun!

  22. Jessica K. says

    March 24, 2016 at 12:27 pm

    Yes I have moved far twice! The first time from Rhode Island to Texas, the second time from Texas to Minnesota. And I’m not done….hoping to move back home one day soon!

  23. Leela says

    March 24, 2016 at 9:51 am

    Yes, a few times. Almost two years ago we moved many states away and had to do it in a very short amount of time because my husband was starting a new job. Stressfull didn’t even begin to describe it!

  24. Paol Trenny says

    March 24, 2016 at 9:24 am

    Yes, we have. We moved fro our native country to the USA 41 years ago and we moved alot since then.

  25. ella says

    March 23, 2016 at 7:25 pm

    I’ve moved around and it’s always stressful!

  26. Paul says

    March 23, 2016 at 5:00 pm

    I’ve only moved a couple of hours away.

  27. Denise B. says

    March 23, 2016 at 2:06 pm

    Yes, we have moved before; and I realized that we always moved a lot of stuff we didn’t really need and could have moved less stuff.

  28. Carrie says

    March 22, 2016 at 7:04 pm

    I went away for college, other than that I have pretty much lived in a 5 mile radius my whole life

  29. Cynthia Mercado says

    March 22, 2016 at 3:29 pm

  30. Christina Sparks says

    March 22, 2016 at 8:19 am

    Yes, I moved over 3000 miles away from where I used to live

  31. shannon fowler says

    March 21, 2016 at 8:15 pm

    I actually moved to alaska for a year long internship. it took a lot of planning because companies don’t always travel there. i wanted to use a pod and they wouldn’t go that far. then moving back would have been too long of a drive so we had to ship my car on a boat and then get it driven to me across the country.

  32. Ashley Taylor says

    March 21, 2016 at 7:58 pm

    I have moved from Vermont to Virginia…however the more difficult move was Central VA to Northern VA…only 3 hours…but I only had about 4 weeks to pack everything for our family to move and I was 6 months pregnant!

  33. suzchsh says

    March 21, 2016 at 6:58 pm

    Moved from Michigan to Maine

  34. Kenya F says

    March 21, 2016 at 5:55 pm

    No, I never moved far away but I am considering to move to Europe if and when the right opportunity comes along. ๐Ÿ™‚

  35. hollyogorman says

  37. Melanie says

    March 21, 2016 at 4:10 pm

    Our longest move was from PA to GA! It was a pain with 2 dogs, 1 cat, 2 4month olds, and an almost 3 yr old. I wouldn’t want to do it again.

  38. Dagmar M says

    March 21, 2016 at 3:14 pm

    Nope! Only about 15 minutes away

  39. Stacie H says

    March 21, 2016 at 12:55 pm

  40. Pamela Kim James says

    March 21, 2016 at 11:41 am

    LOL I thought I would be awesome at moving since we moved constantly growing up (dad was in army). Seemed like every year ๐Ÿ™‚ But when my husband, 2 girls & I finally got moved into our newly bought house I realized I knew nothing! Said I’d never do that again and haven’t lol. In the same house for 30yrs!

  41. latanya says

    March 21, 2016 at 12:20 pm

  42. Lasonda says

    March 21, 2016 at 7:57 am

    Yes, I grew up in Ohio and moved to Texas for a few years. It was pretty far away, but was one of the best decisions I ever made.

  49. Janine a says

    March 21, 2016 at 6:28 am

    i have moved about 5 times, the closets is five mins down the road, the furthest is from ontario to Guatemala so that was a big move

  50. Emily Benzing says

    March 21, 2016 at 5:33 am

    Good Luck with your move! But I have moved within the same state 4 times within the last 4 years.. so stressful, I know exactly how you feel! They weren’t that far, but it was still a haul!

  51. Ruth McIver says

    March 21, 2016 at 3:47 am

    I have never moved “far” away before but within the same state. I was happier and a lot younger then; I would dread it now though!

  52. rajee pandi says

    March 20, 2016 at 11:35 am

    I know how you are so frustrated working both blogs and moving stuffs. I took a break in my blog that really help. I had your experience before I felt like crying now everything is so much better

  53. Jill says

    March 18, 2016 at 12:55 pm

    March 16, 2016 at 2:40 am

    I’ve moved from ME to RI and then back again, and it’s not something I’d want to repeat now, too much stuff! lol.

  55. Michelle Richardson says

    March 14, 2016 at 7:29 pm

    Moving is never easy! Chin up it will be over before you know it!

  56. Kayte CookWatts says

    March 14, 2016 at 3:08 pm

    We used to move all the time when I was a kid, the biggest one was Iowa to Oregon, but as an adult, I’ve stayed put!

  57. Nicole Vosburgh says

    March 14, 2016 at 10:12 am

  58. Trisha says

    March 13, 2016 at 1:31 pm

    I have moved 16x’s and lived in 5 different states. I would move again if I had the opportunity. Happy moving!

  59. Beth Rees says

    March 12, 2016 at 7:35 pm

    No, we have only moved a few hours before. Don’t think I would have the guts

  60. Michele says

    March 12, 2016 at 4:48 pm

    I moved across the country for my first job!

  61. Maryann D. says

    March 9, 2016 at 2:58 pm

    When I was 14 my parents moved from NY to Florida. That was a big move for us. We eventually moved back to NY when I was 18. Good luck with your move, it is not easy for sure.

  62. Mia says

    March 9, 2016 at 12:37 pm

    Yes I have made many long distance moves. Not fun.

  63. carol says

    March 9, 2016 at 11:11 am

    me and my husband moved from New York to Las Vegas when he retired. I hated that move.

  64. Julie Lundstrom says

    March 9, 2016 at 10:41 am

    I have never moved far away but I don’t enjoy moving. It always stresses me out. Hope your move goes smooth.

  65. Cynthia C says

    March 9, 2016 at 10:18 am

    I have never moved long distance, but my son did.

  66. tat2gurlzrock says

    March 9, 2016 at 9:46 am

    Yes..a few times.It is no fun! Last long distance move I did was from Florida to SC. Best of luck Kim!

  67. Jodi Wresh says

    March 9, 2016 at 9:40 am

    Not do much long distance move, but have moved a total of 12 times throughout my life. Yes it can be very stressful even with a small move.

  68. Marcie W. says

    March 9, 2016 at 7:50 am

    I have moved quite a few times throughout my life but never actually left Las Vegas. I was born and raised here and I am still here after 33 years. I love my city!

  69. Margaret Smith says

    March 9, 2016 at 5:03 am

    I’ve moved around my state, but never too far. We are hoping to move in a year or two, out of state though.

  70. Sandy Cain says

    March 8, 2016 at 4:41 pm

    Yes, I moved from NYC to Las Vegas, and lived there for 12 MISERABLE years. So glad to be back home in NY! Vegas is a very unfriendly, drug-ridden city. I used to think it ran on gambling, but it doesn’t – it runs on drugs.

  71. Michelle C says

    March 8, 2016 at 4:38 pm

    When I was a kid, my family and I moved from the east coast to the west coast. As an adult, the furtherest I’ve moved has been a couple of hours.
