New Casa

So I have been adjusting to a new life. I do not exaggerate, everything has changed. EVERYTHING. I plan my day on whatever is happening on said day. I have breakfast every morning with my darling Kiwi. :D I go to bible studies. I read a chapter before I go to bed. I walk to stores or ride a bike. I read. I drink tea like it's going out of style. I look for beauty in the everyday. I let munted (kiwi for messed up/stupid/wrong) things not get to me. I try to "Keep Calm and everything will be Easy As"

My "new" family has made every effort to make me feel at home and it is wonderful. I am so thankful (and happy) that we get along so well! We have lots of fun times talking about whatever at the dinner table and I am glad that is something that is shared by both our families. I spend less or maybe about the same time with my Kiwi as I did back home but this time our roles are reversed as he is working all the time and I am going at a slower interval. I miss him most of the day... :/

My pace of life has evolved from I-AM-SO-STRESSED I. JUST. DON'T. CARE. ANYMORE. To: I am a human being *Phew!* and I have to figure out how to plan my wedding/life for next year/eternity *but* I am not stressed. I have been staying at home and doing laundry and thinking to myself as I hang it out to dry in the clothes line (This is a normal thing in CH CH. Everyone does it. The clothesline thing.) "What do I want to do with my life? Why do I think so hard? *I really get lost in my thoughts* Oh look! An interesting bird that I have never seen before!?"  And back to "I am thinking to myself "I am going to be married next year.... I have lots to prepare for... my sweetie wants us to build a Tiny House and a giant garden (I actually approve) I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO BE SELF SUFFICIENT. Become Farmer Jane! Err Farmer Jaz!  (Sort of) I am the type of person that has to wholly invest myself into something and try to unravel how it works so I have been pouring over "DIY" books and looking up ideas on Pinterest. Yeah I actually have time for that! I would like to start a barista job if that would be possible but we will see. Then I start wondering how I am possibly going to make my mind up about which side of the planet we will inhabit? Which opens another brain VORTEX

 And so I have spent a month scheming and planning what my life will possibly be in the next few years.

Some things will never change :)


THESE ARE NECESSARY FOR SURVIVAL

 

An inquisitive mind.

 

People that love you.

 

Comfy beds for sleeping/dreaming. (Mrs. T made me that quilt! Awwww <3)

 

Toasty toes. And heart, that one is smart...

I am learning how to become a better helpmeet and also how to be more gentle with my INFP self. Never thought that would become a part of this journey. Also to be thankful for my family and friends also the new ones I make along the way :)
