UNCONDITIONAL - Part 2

Okay. 

So I think I'm in shock right now. 

Maybe a little bit in denial too, perhaps?

My heart is racing. 

It actually happened. 

We went unconditional

For real


It's kind of a relief, actually. 

To no longer be fighting. Working and saving and hoping, hoping, hoping it's enough this time. 

Unconditional

I just feel a bit.... 

I don't have the words. 


After everything I've been through to get to this point, I'd thought I'd be more excited. 

But it's more like a calm has swept through me. 

Earlier at 2pm when we read John's email - I was beyond excited. So excited. Screaming out the window and cheeeehoooo-ing out the window. I was on a huge happy buzz. 

I'd told Bonny earlier that day that I had only given myself 48 hours of positivity because I didn't want to get too emotionally attached for it to fall through like last time. 

This time I approached the entire situation very rationally. Without emotion. 

I didn't want to get hurt again. 

But now - without all that emotion - I'm just - calm. Content? Reservedly happy. 

And now - we have to pack. Because in just over ten days, we move to the new house. 

Packing. 

Oh! 

Like last time. 

But this time I know it's for real. 

This time I won't have to unpack in this house. 

I'll be unpacking in my new home. 

My first home. 

That I bought. 

That I've put a deposit on. Like tonight. Thanks to the lawyers doing the mahi in the background ♥️


So many thoughts! 

Calm. Relaxed. Processing.

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. Flashy, as Crystel puts it.  She wants to live in a flashy house.  I get it.  We've both been through some crazy trauma and deserve good things.  But inside me is also this niggling thought that makes me think I don't deserve to. 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...
