Sad to be moving

I feel stupid feeling this way, but I suppose what I am going through is just a phase. So bear with me....

Dh got a job on Tuesday and we have to move to Bristol or thereabouts. He starts work in a fortnight and, as the company are renting a house for us, I thought I might as well just up sticks and go with him then, rather than wait. I want to move to Bristol and I don't really have any friends where I am now, so why am I crying at the thought of leaving it all behind? We haven't told the children yet but will have to do so tonight and I am dreading their reaction. They didn't want to move when it was a possibility last year and I know they will feel the same now. I can understand their sadness at leaving behind friends, after school groups, a familiar school, etc and I know they will soon replace all that, but why do I feel so sad too? I have very little going for me here and I was sad last year when we didn't move, so I feel really contrary crying now that we are going to. I have never been good with change I suppose.

How was the move ? I realise this was 10 years ago- but I am planning similar move. Were your tears for nothing? We're you happier once you had made them move? Love to know x
