changes

So I recognise some changes. 

I'm a lot more risk averse. I don't just jump into getting excited at houses first. I look at the roof, I want to be thorough when it comes to the safety and security of the house. Thinking about a house carefully before putting an offer in. 

I'm waiting til I actually have the keys to the house before I start thinking about buying new furniture or where my current things might go. 

I'm struggling a little with the not dreaming about the house. 

I like what Kathryn said - that my forever house is out there, it's just hiding at the moment. 

That hope is still there. 

But so is this ticking clock for the bank pre-approval. 60 days from application date. It's already been 15 days. 

I'm starting to get nervous and feel like I have to move faster. 

I want to see the photos of the other houses Bonny has waiting to be listed. 

I have money in my accounts still - three days from payday! 

That in itself is a big change. And I'm focussed on making these changes permanent. Focussed on myself and my future. 

Yes, I have Crystel and Riley to consider - but also myself. ♥️ And I still have to find the right place that I know I can be happy in too.

Continuing to break the poverty mindset

Whuuuu.  I'm still processing the latest thought patterns.  We're going to an Open Home on Sunday. 52 Buchanan. Beautiful big house.

That thought is holding me back.  I find it hard to see myself in a fancy, flashy, new house.  I prefer to see myself in a villa.  Part of that could be conditioning while growing up. Maybe it's to do with my preconceived notions and ideas about wealth.  Maybe I still have more work to do.  At present - my list of house options:  52 Buchanan Street Ōpōtiki * 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms * newer house * Not much section * Pizza oven * Big garage * Big white gates * Open plan living and kitchen 32 Potts Ave * 2 bedrooms, 2 toilets, 1 shower over bath * Co...

Sandy NanoWriMo 2014

Update: Quite a bit longer now...  #NaNoWriMo2014 She woke up just like any other day, with her alarm playing on her phone and her arm sprawled across her face. Her face covered from the overwhelming light that drifted through the non-existent curtains and onto her bedroom walls. She had been clever enough a year ago to begin mapping out the sun's cycle as it passed her little apartment and knew without even looking at her phone that she had overslept. Sandy Jenkins was no ordinary person. But she felt overly ordinary every single day. The problem was, she hadn't quite figured out her purpose in life, nor had she found the suitable (insert worm mating phrase here).  Unfortunately, Sandy had a couple afflictions. The first was that she was stuck in a job that she didn't particularly like. She had a range of talents yet none of these had anything to do with her current 'career pathway' or so her parents continued to call it. They said it was a stepping stone to a much...
