No we are taking her stuff down Wed/Thurs then coming home & she is going down by train next Saturday
I really struggle leaving her places - so dropping her at the station will be easier for both of us - my mum is convinced it's wrong, she won't cope and anyway the trains won't be running so wants to drive her down
But DD & I have been doing drop at station every weekend for the last year & it works for us
Wheat bag ..... forgot what it was called .... its like gold dust when ur aching and we have to get a sat nav as she can drive but trying to give as much practice as possible as a long journey ahead .
I felt the same when DD moved out ... but we ended up taking another carful of stuff with us when she went back after the Christmas break. Heaven only knows how we will get everything back when she finishes next summer
Her room mate is lovely & in the same year as a lad from school who has offered help if she gets stuck/has problems! Both of them have promised she will make friends
We pick her up in a bit to do a big shop & put up posters & practise the walk to the station & my baby is growing up!!
Glad all has gone well Kate - I'm sure your dd will be buzzing by this time next week and exhausted too! I tried to pm you last week but it wouldn't send??? Dd had first day at Laine yesterday completely loved it but completely overwhelmed too - the realisation of living her dream Ds is off to Uni on saturday I hope he starts packing soon........! Good luck for next week xxx
