Moving into a new home can be a very exciting time in the lives of all of those involved.  Moving can also however be a time of sadness and or a feeling of displacement.   Both feelings of sadness and happiness are quite normal when it comes to moving.  Most folks likely don’t ever think they will feel sad when they move into a new home and are many times quite surprised by the feeling when it creeps up on them.  There are a few ideas listed below for you to help you make it through your feelings of sadness and blues during your next move.

1. Be sure to plan some road trips back home before you move away from your loved ones.  Planning ahead to spend quality time with those whom you are moving away from can give you the sense of comfort  that you might not otherwise have.
2. Many times when you move into a new home you think it is going to be so much better than your old house, especially if it is bigger and brand new. However, many times when you move from a small old cozy house into a large new house it can seem cold and sad.  Be sure to decorate your new home as quickly as possible once you move in.  Use your old decorations mixed with some new ones to keep those feelings of sadness at bay.
3. If you have just moved to a new area and you want to feel connected to those who live around you, do your best to get out and make friends with your neighbors as soon as you can. Perhaps they can show you the local hot spots so that you can connect with even more people.  The more connected you become the less likely you will suffer from the moving blues.
4. If you moved for your job, do your best to make friends with your new co-workers and let them know how you are feeling. You may find a few friends that are going through a similar situation as your own that you can connect with.
5. If you have left family and friends behind, take advantage of your smart phone and or computer and video chat on a regular basis so that you stay connected.

These are just a few ideas on how to keep the blues away  when moving.  Keep in mind that sadness can hit you whether you are moving far away or just the next town over.  Change is hard, but these tips should help to make your transition a bit easier.

Replacing your shower curtain is a quick, fairly inexpensive way to spruce up your bathroom.  You may not realize just how many different types there are until you begin looking but there are quite a few types to choose from.  Below is a list of a few different ones, along with the pros and cons of each.

1. The typical shower curtain  many people have in their homes is made of vinyl.  Vinyl is good because it is very easy to clean as well as inexpensive.  There are usually tons of variations to choose from at your local department store so you are sure to find one that shows your style.  Clean up for the vinyl shower curtain is easy because all you need to do is toss it in the washing machine, then air dry it.  The cons to having one is that are not quite as expensive looking as other kinds of curtains which can sometimes make your bathroom look a bit outdated as a result.  They don’t last as long as other types because they can easily rip throughout the wear of daily use.
2. Another one you may want to take a look at is the cotton blend. The pros of these are they tend to make your bathroom feel cozy.  They also come in a wide array of colors and patterns.  They also tend to last for a good many years.  The cons to this blend are that they need frequent laundering to keep from having a buildup of mold.  Also they can be a bit more costly.
3. Silk or satin may cost quite a bit more but these types of fabrics can go a long way toward making your bathroom look fancy. The only con to this type of fabric besides the price is that it is not water resistant and will require dry cleaning.
4. Hemp fabric is another option but typically this material doesn’t come in as many color choices as do all the others. It is however a very environmentally friendly choice.

Now that you have read of a few different choices you have concerning shower curtains you may be more able to make a wise decision on which one works best for you and your style.
