well first if it has not been discussed or if it has have a daily routine set in place and go over them with your slave.like for example is there thigns your slave will be doing aorund your house for example on a daily bais and show how you want things done and be consistant and patient as well.

my Lord and my Mistress(His wife) moved me to PA from Seattle almost 4 months ago.She would have preffered to wait until summer when She has Her break but through discussions They brought me here sooner.which has been a big help with the holidays being here.be it,it has distracted from time together.

but,through this,we have kept up with normal routines such as my cleaning and helping my Lord and my Mistres off to work on a regular basis.

be it got here arlier than we thought but it's working out and the main reasons for that is our open  commmunication and keeping up with normal routines with sometimes having to go to one or both of them with questions when rapid changes arise.

also,if it has or has not been set to do so,have time where if needed either of you can take some time to them self if needed from time to time.

because i can say right now one of the biggest thigns that i know will be difficult here is that my Lord is away with His work all week since He works out of state.Both Him and His wife have the holiday break this year.it will make up for some much needed time between my Lord and myself as His slave and i know we will likely hit some rough areas seeing as we don't have much time together normally.

another thing with the space issue,one of the things we found that helps is when i know i need space is that it's allright to ask,may not be granted but ususally is,and my Lord and Mistress let me come online and either work on posting or level my charcter on World of Warcraft(my venting source).
