We are 6 months into our new life now.
Happy anniversary to us!
6 months ago we drove away from our life, no jobs, and no idea of what would be ahead of us other than good feelings that it would all work out.
Settling in was intimidating. Recreating our businesses was nerve wracking at times (ahhh names . . . they cause me so much worry!) But trusting the island, and ourselves was the biggest hurdle.
Can we do it? We still aren’t sure.
Does it feel like home yet? Well . . . it’s getting there.
Hubby is “off island” again next week, finishing some work on the sunshine coast. He said to me yesterday, after spending the day sourcing and creating projects on the island… “it felt right” . It felt good, and possible. It felt like it might work.
I think we are starting to become part of the community, starting to make some light ripples, letting people know we are here.
We have been hiding under a rock for 6 months and I think it might be time to see some sunlight.
Time to stop hiding. Time to commit.
