Oh Pat bless you, I am dredding the day that my daughters move out, my daughters 22 & 15 are my best friends and we do have our spats but, I secretly dread the day it happens. You will be best friends I promise you....Im sure it will get easier. Im sure you are proud of the fact that your daughter is now grown up and is able to look after herself, look forward to all the phone calls and the unexpected visits and the shopping trips and catching up.

Hi Patricia, I know how you feel. All 3 of my daughters had left home although the middle one has since moved back. I keep asking her when is she moving again. lol. It,s amazing how close you become once that 'breathing' space has been acheived though.

Aw, Patricia, I feel for you! You know though, children moving out so somewhere of their own is how it's meant to be and for some reason it's often precipitated by something of a disagreement. I'm sure that soon things will have settled and you will be on more of an even keel, both with yourself and your daughter. x

Today my daughter moved out into a flat on her own.. She has wanted to for a while now says she wants her own space, she is 22, we had a falling out and didn't speak for about 6 weeks. was a lot of tension here, but we have made up, I know it wasn't because of that..but she had got a husky that wasn't to good with it's toilet, so I think she felt it was the best thing to do. She left her with us while she moved it and has just gone..so am feeling down and tearful.. But I'm of over there tomorrow to help unpack.... Do you get used to them not being at home? cor bathroom will stay tidy and I won't have so many towels to wash...!!!! Pat
