Ask Aviva: New in the hood jitters
Dear Aviva, I just moved to a new community. I know that all beginnings are difficult, but it’s taken more of a toll on me than I had expected. I feel overwhelmed with all my responsibilities of setting up a new home, making new friends, and getting to know the neighborhood. I feel that I have to live up to the expectations of the norm here, which include having a job, looking great, keeping a clean, modern home, and cooking superb Shabbat meals, all while maintaining a healthy relationship with my husband. But I don’t feel like Superwoman! How can I ease into my new community without feeling these pressures all at once?
