So. thats it - my oldest son has moved out today, with me as the removals person. It’s [redacted] hard, but as i said to him, its one chapter of your life closed, and another one starting. He did bung me £40 and said get a big butt KFC meal for me, the missus and his brother and a few beers for myself. That drive home without him was weird though

It’s hard. Both of mine left long ago but the secret is keep in touch but never interfere (unless it’s something life-threatening). Both had to leave suddenly for different reasons but we’re closer now I think, many years later, than we ever were; eg I have a check-ups for a chronic illness every few months and they both take the day off work and come from opposite ends of the country to be at the appointment.
It’s a different relationship, one of equals rather than parent and children.

anyway: i dont have kids so i cant relate to ala and sinny experiences but when i left home (28yo - italian standard is normal) my dad was so upset that in wrath broke a door with a fist (and i was the 4th to leave!).

When I moved to Turin from the province (like, half an hour from Turin) my mother looked me in the eyes, hugged me and told me “life is yours from now on” like if we would’ve never seen each other again. I laughed and told her I was literally just 30 minutes away, but I guess it’s hard for a parent. I do visit them often though!

i was movin 2 floors below :D. But its true after 2 months they moved out to the other side of milan…

I moved in the house behind my parent’s one… at 37 (I have lived alone in the past though).

Training is pretty boring.

You can’t afford a house here even if you’ve worked a full time job since 18.
The prices of everything are just ridiculous. I think most people rent but even that is more expensive. I’ll probably inherit this falling-to-pieces house, sell it and live in a teeny tiny apartment (which is fine) and pray I go deaf so I don’t have to deal with all the neighbouring noises.

Maybe in 20 years it will be better again.

My son only 31 years old , wants to move out soon , I do not accept this ! The terror of what if he can not be safe , if he will get the illness he is too far for me take care of him , I don’t do nothing no more without him if he wants to leave me this makes me want to die , it feel empty without him . I accept his wife , even though she is the Heathen , and gives to me the best gift of GrandSom , so now I accept . But she wants to leave too , and this makes me think the life says to me I am done with the pail , but

To young in this Internet , do not leave your parent too soon , they will be the HeartBreak ! Good children who move close back their parents , OK you are good , I live my mother since I am 0 years old and do not abandon her even now . It is best if the child remains with the parent as long as possible , for health . The cemetary closeby so you can visit your sister every holiday

Good joke ^^

I saw a game on steam called Empire of the Undergrowth, something about managing an ant colony or some such. Anyway, it made me think of you @Souldefiler

I bet after all that training

@Punyelf-draenor

I bet after all that training

Yes, I’m glad it’s over, nothing really difficult or anything, but sitting all day on an uncomfortable chair listening to boring stuff I don’t even really need for my daily work is kind of tiring. And 45 minutes of driving afterwards didn’t help either.

[Sinaaki-argent-dawn]

Early bedtime tonight then?

[Murley-argent-dawn]

@Sinaaki-argent-dawn

Early bedtime tonight then?

I might have a nap later but I usually never go to bed much earlier than I’m used to, because it never works. I’m used to go to bed around midnight and fall asleep almost instantly, but when I go earlier than that, I can’t sleep until midnight anyway, so it defeats the whole point (and I get nervous because I can’t sleep right away like I’m used to).

Tomorrow I’ll work from home, so I can wake up around 7:30-8 and it’s fine.
Who cares if I start working in my pyjamas, no one will know anyway.

You just described school.

@Fullsocks-pyrewood-village

Yeah but when you go to school you are like 30 years younger than I am right now.

[Punyelf-draenor (Punyelf)]

I envy people who can nap!

I can’t

Either I can’t fall asleep in a timely fashion and whatever alarm I have set goes off before sleep comes OR I sleep for like 8 hours.

[Murley-argent-dawn]

@Punyelf-draenor

I chose the wrong word, it’s not really a nap, because when I fall asleep during the day it’s always a bad idea. I wake up even more tired and zombie-like than before, so I just lay in bed for a bit listening to relaxing sounds.

[Fullsocks-pyrewood-village]

So it’s not really a nap, it’s a trap.

I’ll see myself out.
