Alright friends, I thought this was going to be 3 parts buuuttt I have no idea how many it will be now 😂so buckle up buttercups! Also, Huge points if you get the taylor swift reference 😊
You are allowed to grieve for everything you have lost. You did the best thing you could have for Kelly...giving him a voice and a long hug. None of us likes change and the bigger the change the more we resist it. Change is good. It allows you to grow as a person and pushes you to do things you wouldn't do. It will take time but you will be happy. One step at a time!
I walked out the door with my 2 babies 23 years ago. It is hard, but good things are ahead. You and your son are doing beautifully. Moving is hard no matter what-physically exhausting, new things and people and places, nothing is familiar or routine. Lots of grace for everyone. ❤❤❤
I left a long term relationship and a lovely home to move into an apt. My sons were older (13 and 16) and we gave them the option to stay in the home with their father or move with me (same small town. They could ride their bikes). They stayed in their home. I thought I'd die, but I had to keep a brave face so they would know that their decision was OK. and that I wasn't going far. Alone, I shed ALOT of tears, and came so close to going back, but it was over. It's just not easy, but we all made it through, one bumpy day at a time. So hang in there, and cry when you need to. ❤
Moving is absolutely the worst....give yourself lots of grace! I also did it as a single mom and cried the entire time. 🙏
I was just reflecting yesterday when I got gas, my car was on ----- miles left, how nice it was when I was married and my ex would gas up my car on Sunday. How that would never happen again and how hard it is to be responsible for everything. Life in general is more peaceful now, moving eventually will be easier because I have less stuff, I'm okay. I'm good. All the feelings 💜💛
Moving can bring you to your knees physically and emotionally. It is perhaps one of the most grueling/exhausting things we do in life.
We feel like we might break but somehow we find it in ourselves to keep moving forward.
I love how you acknowledge and validate all the feelings that bubble up during life changes. You do it in such a healthy way.
I wish all children could have the loving and caring emotional support you give your son.
You're doing so well, Libby.
You really are!
Give yourself lots of credit.
I know you are tired.
I cry easier when I'm worn out.
Tomorrow is a new day and good things are on the horizon.
Everything you said 💯
Ive started over many times. Two marriages, three kids. Then retired. Alone. Adjusting. Peace. ... Surprise! My 44 year old handicapped son moved in, lost his apartment. Not going well, but im faking it on the outside.🥴
You've been through so much! That is so tough, but I know you'll get through this too. ❤️
@@SimplyLibbyt You are so sweet! 💖
Lots of strength your way Patricia 🙏 pls don't be scared to ask for help from your community and the people around you 💚
Don’t fake it, it will only take you longer to heal that way! We’re at our strongest when we are at our most vulnerable, only liars walk around acting like everything is perfect. Pray, trust God and don’t be afraid to show your tears because God is especially close to the brokenhearted. 🙏🏻♥️
I was 35 years old, had not lived at home since I was 18, when our family home (after the divorce of my parents) was sold. I cried for 2 days!! It is perfectly okay to shed some tears. You have been under a lot of stress. Moving isn't easy . You have other things weighing on you as well. I would go sit in my car for a few minutes and have a good cry. Tears are like rain, they cleanse the soil. Don't ever apologize for your feelings or crying . We all cry. Remind yourself that you are doing great job! Be proud of what your accomplishing!!
Been there done that. My experience after divorce is that everything will get better it just takes time. I went from not driving to getting a car, getting a job, getting a better job, meeting someone new. Were there bumps in the road, of course, but that's what makes you stronger. I just lost my partner of 44 years, and then my best friend of 50+ years, and eight years ago my only sister. I lost my mom when I was in my early 20s and all the emotional support she could have given me. Just take everything one step at a time, take a deep breath, it will all get better.
Moving is SO HARD no matter the circumstances. Be extra gentle with yourself. Sending you lots of love and a big hug. I truly believe that great things are coming your way soon! 😊❤
It is so hard! I think it's like childbirth- we forget the trauma until we are in it again 😂
Thank you so much ❤️
@@SimplyLibbyt Yeah I think you're right! I just helped two of my kids move into an apartment last week. Shop, organize, declutter, pack, move, clean, unpack, shop some more.... such a long list of to dos. Then you get settled in and hope you don't have to move again for a very long time!
Just live in the moment…if you can journal this experience and read it a year from now, you will be amazed and proud of yourself!!💕
Libby, I feel for you. I'm so sorry you're going through a rough time right now. Maybe you could get a notebook and log the things you'd like to do to the apartment to make it feel more like home. And do it with your son. Have time where the two of you talk about what would make the bedroom feel nice, or even the bathroom. make an Amazon list and one by one get the small things that add up and make a home feel like home. I'm in a position where my last kiddo is moving out on just over a week and I'm struggling with it. So I've been focusing on what I'd like to have in my place now that I don't have to worry about what someone else thinks or wants. It helps to feel like you have a bit of control and also something to look forward to. Either way take good care of yourself, Libby. We're all out here rooting for you.
This is a beautiful idea! 😍 I'll give it a try. Thank you ❤️
I had to move almost every year between 1990 and 2000. Then again after divorce with kids. All by myself sometimes. Then the kids grew up and I got married and moved across the country last year. I drove a uhaul 1300 miles!! I had a lot of crap and OMG, just junk and random stuff. You're doing great, mamma!
ALSO, we have the poop emoji pillow still.
Oh my gosh that is so much moving!! I do not envy you 😮 congratulations on your marriage! ❤️
@@SimplyLibbyt Your strength and caring for your pet and child are apparent. Take care of yourself and things will get better one day!
Wow, that's a lot of moving, how do you find the strenght?
@@emiliaescobar7652 I no longer do that! I was in my 20s and 30s then.
dont think of al the negitives , moving always hard , but on the plus side got nice little place not to big so less to clean ,its safe and warm and allowed your dog , little lad met great friends soon and he be ok ,think of it has a freash start just you and your lad new adventures and got each other , stay strong
Sweet Libby 💚 I'm so proud of you ! You are your son's home xxx you've outgrown the old you & your old life doesn't fit anymore. The hard part is done 👏 so proud of each and every step forward you took for yourself !
I hope you are decluttering as you unpack and keeping things you USE and/or absolutely love 💕
I think it's great you can walk away from a relationship on good terms. That's so healthy and very rare. Kudos to you guys !
I replayed the ghost clip 700 times 👻 🧐😲 ahhhhhh !
I’ve been through the same type of a thing. God helped me and my son has grown up to be a wonderful young adult. Look ahead and cry when you need to, but love! I’m so proud of you! It will pass and soon not hurt as much! Stay busy with things the two of you enjoy!
its ok to grieve and feel all the feels, its healthy and normal its a lot. moving is a lot. breaking up is a whole lot. its ok.
Nothing was more relatable than your sad Tarzan scream 😂😂😂 Also, the fact mattresses don't have straps/loops on them to make moving easier is MALARKEY! I'm proud of you girl❤
I’m so sorry you are going through this. I admire your vulnerability in sharing this journey. I wish you peace and happiness in your new venture ❤
Even moving to a new job is stressful. But a break up and move. Thats huge! Take care of yourself and get rest too! You will get through this crazy time and one day be so proud of all you accomplished! A loving cozy home for you and your son. And doggie. 🐶 ❤
I’m sorry you are going through this. It’s a lot and it’s hard. You should grieve and give yourself time and treats. I pray things will be better soon for you , your son, and the pets. 💜 🙏🏻
I know what your going thru after 12 yrs of marriage he left me. We didn't have any kids together & I was so devastated but now i am happily engaged. But I've come a long way in the last 4yrs & i wouldn't have it any other way. You got this, just pray & cast all your worries to God.
Huge hugs!!! Change is hard
Just found your channel yesterday
I have two adult children from two marriages one of them is physically disabled and the other has mental illness. I raised them all on my own with no support both physical and financial.
They are both college educated and thriving for the most part now.
If I can do it ( no one special here just determined )you can too!
Bless you and Kelly. I think and pray for you both everyday. Children are resilient and Kelly will be okay. The Lord will keep him close.
Moving is major. Be kind to yourself.💖
It's sooo major. That's an amazing way to put it. Thank you ❤️
Hi Libby, I'm a new sub and obviously don't have the bigger picture yet. I just wanted to tell you, you're an incredible mum. Always putting your little one first and considering what challenges and differences they will have to cope with. You've got this. Moving is one of the most stressful things in life, but it will get easier with time I hope. I'm a single mum. We moved from a 1 bed apartment to a 2 bed house which is tiny but also kind of perfect. My son has autism but he's only 4 (nearly 5) so he struggled a lot with change, new school, new place etc. We still see his dad but he was never around much anyhow. I was feeling like a single parent even when we were together. You've got this. Please be kind to yourself. Keep a notebook of things to change, add etc in your new place so you can slowly start to make it your own. Huge hugs xx You are an incredible mum and a strong independent woman. Hugs & best wishes from UK England 🇬🇧
My son has adhd and I'm amazed at how well you've done during this process. I also bought two kids up on my own . You can do this Libby ! Big hugs from the UK xx
Stay strong. You'll get through this one step and one day at a time.
Breaking up is tough, and moving away from the familiar and safe is even harder.
Sending you hugs and blessings from a very cold South Africa.❤😊❤
Your doing so well, things will get better, you are your own destiny
You got this! You are stronger than you think. One day at time, one hour at a time whatever it takes.
Change is always hard at first. You & Kelly will get thru this and come out stronger. Everything happens for a reason, even if u don’t know what it is yet. Stay strong! Prayers to both of you ❤️
My friend advised me to allow myself to feel uncomfortable emotions with all the intensity they demand - not to deny grief and hurt and not to hurry myself along the process. But also keep in mind that ahead there are open doors inviting you into possible wonderfulness - all my love to you and yours 🤗
Hope you and Kelly find happiness in your new home 🏡🫶🏼☀️
I’m praying for you and your family sending you a big hug
I know you dont know me but I'd like to offer you some advice. Never second guess yourself. Sometimes, even if its hard, relationships need to end. Sometimes two people are better off as friends and not romantic. Also, I see unhealed hurt and trauma in your expressions and demeanor. So heal your heart. Forgive your past and love yourself. You are strong and powerful for realizing you need to change. Break ups hurt and are hard. They aren't called easy-ups. Continue your path to growth so you can be the best version of yourself for your baby boy. Also, kids are resilient. Change is hard on anyone but usually kids adjust well. Any you are doing a fantastic job making sure he knows his feelings are valid and that he can discuss any and all issues with you. Give yourself a pat on the back for that. You got this. Thrive my dear. There is absolutely nothing you cant achieve.
Kids are strong and you are being a terrific mom for him. Things will get better. Much love to the both of you from Chile. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
hi, libby
i feel you’re pain as tears. going through a divorce now. dv as moving through the changes with 5 kiddos. prayers. stay strong. stay beautiful. stay kind.
Change is a scary thing, but it can also be an exciting thing. Everything will work out ❤😊 You guys hang in there!
You are an amazing inspiration, a lovely person and a perfect Mum. I have only watched a few vids so far but man l can relate to your feelings and thoughts. Keep doing what your doing, you will feel free of hurt soon. xx
You're doing great Libby, and you're as brave as your son.
I love your video’s. You are so raw and authentic. You definitely keep it real!!🧡
You are stronger than you know ! Each day is the fiest day of the rest of your life ❤
The "sad Tarzan scream", combined with the star fish flop, is the universal cheer for moving 😩 totally sucks, but you are so inspiring! 💕
Take your time on this. You are a Wonder Woman. ❤️❤️❤️
Coming from some one who is terrified of change and the unknown ( my heart races just at the thought of change ) .... The change is always worth it in the end! You will be ok, your son will absolutely be ok. Stay strong and stay focused! Kids are very resilient and smarter than we realize. You are so brave for this❤
You're going to look back and be very proud of yourself , and now you're in charge of your happiness. I divorced when my son was 10
he always tells me I made the right decision, I kept his and my health and happiness a priority. Im just retired and sometimes I cant
believe I made it . Life is too short not to be happy, all the best to you .
You got this trust me you are stronger than you know God is with you.
You will be happy 💙💙💙 Moving is hard and you didn't just move, you separated living from a partner. You're doing so well and it WILL get better!
Treat yourself. You're doing great!
I appreciate you! ❤️
@@SimplyLibbyt I appreciate you too!! 😸
Big hugs. Go easy on yourself. You are going thru a lot. Do whatever you need to do to just get to the next thing and then the next time. You are doing great! ❤❤❤❤❤
I don’t know how I came upon your videos. But gosh, I feel so lead to tell you that you are in this valley TEMPORARILY and soon you’ll be on top of the mountain top. Don’t feel defeated…you will overcome. God loves you and didn’t bring you this fair to leave you stranded. I’m praying for you and Kelly. You are loved and I believe you have purpose. Trust Him…Lean on Him! 🙏🏼
Sending you love and hugs from Melbourne Australia. You’re strong , you’re brave and it’s hard but life will get easier for you both ❤
Girl you are also doing an amazing job! Change is hard for us all! And 6 months from now you will look back and say look I did it!! This too shall pass! You got this mama!
I am with you. I had to go through this change almost nine years ago. I had my elderly mother and my two kids. I wished I had done it sooner than I did. I wanted to leave my ex back in 2010 but decided to make it work. Fast forward to 2016 and that is when I decided to leave. Now I am happy with my new life and my husband.
It's okay to be sad
Just think this will pass in due time
You need to talk to someone that can put you at ease
I'm moving tomorrow and have always been with family. Finally my 3 yr old and I got an apt and we are starting a new chapter for us ❤ it's scary! Change always is hard, I have been single this whole time and it's not worth putting the kids thru it. Your doing the right thing girl 😊 it will!! You and the kids and dog got this ❤❤
One of the skills you have from your adhd is that you have the ability to think outside of the box ❤❤
Praying for you ❤. Ive been there done that. It does get better.
Libby I can relate with you. I have one child and been in a marriage for many years. The last five years of my marriage has been rocky and turbulent. I'm mentally and physically exhausted. By the end of this year or next year I too will be a single parent living alone with my child. Until then I'm faking a happy smile when I'm at work but I'm really not feeling that way.
Being alone is an adjustment for you Libby without a partner. But hang in there and everything will be okay. I'm hanging in there. That's all I can do for now.
God bless you at this time in your life. He has you wrapped in His arms. 🙏❤️
You are not alone! I’m walking this very path right by your side. I have three kiddos ❤ slowly, but nothing we can’t handle 💪🏼
Please take care of yourself and give yourself grace. You are doing great! 😊❤🤗🦋
Wishing you the most fantastic future!
I know it is hard, but as they said, when one door closes another opens. You have to see change as a new life, new experience and the chance you needed to move into a better situation. See it as an adventure. It takes time to adjust so allow it. Focus on making the new place your home. One day you will look back and see this was the best decision you made for yourself. Hugs!
You are an amazing mom you deserve to be 100% happy. best wishes it will get better 😊
I have been desperately chasing happiness as well for a few years, but for now I have settled for being content with what I have, what I can do with the energy I currently have. I think - I hope - that this will be the basis for happiness later on. Maybe that can tide you over for a bit as well. Settling for a bit until you have processed this huge change you are so bravely tackling.
Also, I am not a parent, but please do not only be proud of your son for managing the change so well, be proud of yourself as well; you taught him how to weather the storms.
Thank you for sharing your struggles - I hope to see you doing better soon! All the best from tiny Switzerland
I too hate change and it is inevitable . I truly believe that our life path destiny is already made for us when we are born to follow and grown. Keep thinking positive thoughts and stay healthy.
I Will Pray For You 🙏🙏🙏
Sending love to you all and I promise it will all be worth it in the end you are a strong woman❤❤❤❤❤
Hello from Australia.
Wishing all the best for your move.
Change IS scary! However....you WILL be O.K. Hang in there. Just remember...one day at a time!!!
You have needed to have a good cry. Keeping it all in can be good till you settle. We all do the huge cry after all you have been through give yourself a huge hug and a he'll of a lot of love. You got this honey. I can see what strength you have. Even when you don't feel it it's their. Your doing so good you deserve to let it out. ❤❤❤❤
Me and boyfriend finally moved from a nice apartment that was 50 steps to get up one trip ...4th floor and no elevator!!!😢 i totally feel you girl
You need to be strong and have faith and hope for good things to come into your life and your son's life. When you're feeling down and hurting, your son sees that, so you need to have positive things in your life. Don't bring yourself down because then you'll bring your son down too, and that's not good for him.
There is nothing in your comment that she doesn’t already know. Expressing her feelings in a video helps her process them so she CAN be there for her son. Single moms don’t need to be told how to be, or how to feel, or guilt tripped about what is or isn’t good for their kids. She needs to be strong?.. SHE IS STRONG.
Can someone tell me why they do not put some kind of handle on mattresses? All furniture should have to be constructed with moving in mind. lol.
Aww I hope everything goes well, moving is very stressful. Stay strong once you both have settled in you will feel so much better ❤❤❤❤
Libby you are a hero you have pushed through all your emotions and feelings and still supported your son and dogs you will find the strength to be happy just give it time xx🇬🇧❤️😁
When i moved, i took my bed apart the day before, and slept on the mattress and box spring on the floor. Everything was boxed, all we had to do was shower and get moving. My super power is a touch of OCD 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You are strong. You are loved. You are beautiful. God is with you and your son❤❤
Everything is going to be okay.
I wish I could give you a big hug. You may not feel like it now but I promise you will heal. ❤️🩹
You are so brave , I’m definitely a fan now. Keep pushing forward, this situation will be okay
You need time take it and grow put the work into your new home
Sending you so many hugs and love. Change is hard and scary but I'm hoping it all works out for you x
Send you a lot of love and best luck 💓
Good morning
I was watching your video on you moving, I got to see your new place, it's very nice.
It's good to be with your family.
You went thru hell with that man.
You had enough and I'm glad you put your foot down and didn't go and visit him. He decided to blank himself. It's for the best.
Hi I’m new to your channel and just wanted to tell you that you are an awesome mom and change is hard and having to move is hard!! It will take some time but you and your son will be okay just take it day by day and second by second!! I look forward to following you on your life’s journey and keep your head up high!!
I totally understand about the depression,stress and ADHD cause I have the same thing and I have to manage a house and it's very stressful and nobody really understand
Thanks!
Thank you! ❤️❤️
Love and hugs 💗
I love moving it gives me a chance to unload junk but I have a big family that helps so it's not stressful plus I've never had to do a "sad" move either.
Love your night shirt/top.❤❤❤
❤..Day by Day Sweetness...❤
❤️ day by day
Blessings happiness and joy is what i wish you find in your new home
I just also wanted to send you a great big hug and thank you for being you a very precious lady XXX
Onwards and upwards it will be good for you . 😘
Just take it one day at a time, I too am in the middle of moving and starting over with my two girls. At first the thought of it was a bit scary but I’m in a much better place mentally and physically. Also you have family help to move, I actually don’t have any help besides my son. You’re stronger than you think, as days go by you will see that things will be ok. Stay strong
❤❤❤❤ Allow this time of grief. Then move on to new things. Big hugs Dear
Hi libby sorry for you all my prayers are with you 🙏👨👩👧
U got this Libby
I've moved many times in my life,I did learn to do one room at a time,it made it mush easier 🙃 😊,move all the larger furniture first and set it up in the new place,it leaves just cleaning up,and separating everything else❤.😊.just a tip.
