Reflecting on Success

I received so many beautiful supportive comments after my last post --

And just wanted to share my latest korero: 

Thanks everyone ♥️ it took a lot of time and processing to think that last post through and I hear you guys ♥️ Thank you for your awhi and belief in me ♥️ 

It has been a long time coming, that's for sure. 

It's kind of like the anti-climactic feeling when I got to the top of the Eiffel Tower. That "Is this it?" feeling. Because I'd achieved a long time dream. 

After so many years of struggling to break the cycle - to be able to sit here, in my lounge, look around and change things to create more flow... To sit in each spot in the lounge and then also think about how multi-use this space is but also not crammed with stuff or cluttered - is seriously freeing. 

Although... The garage is a whole other situation 😂🤦‍♀️ my gallery/workshop/writing zone is still a work in progress. Still lots of books and boxes and things to go through and chuck. Now that we're here - I don't want to bring anything into the house that we don't totally love.

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...
