Morgana’s New Home (with her Money Honey)
Late last year my (personified) Money “Honey” told me he wanted me to start walking. I was having one of those, “Okay, Money, what would make you happy?” conversations. He responded, “I want you to take daily walks at 8 in the morning.” 8 am? I was falling asleep at 5 am! But when money tells you what to do, you do it… These walks became my favorite time of my day, typically lasting two and a half hours.
On one of these walks my Money Honey said he needed a bigger place. He was feeling claustrophobic and didn’t want to live in the apartment I’ve had for ten years. That’s when I started looking for a house to buy. I did the whole loan application thing, scoured the internet for houses in five cities (I had a little trouble choosing where I want to live)… and then on a daily walk I found it: my new home.
It’s HUGE! And beautiful. Romantic. Total Morgana-wish-fulfillment. High, beamed, dark wood ceilings; lots of windows (I’ve counted 19); lots of closets (I counted 8, maybe 9); two stories, a balcony; private garden; a kitchen with a gazillion built-ins (including a vintage ice box); more rooms and much more space. Here are some pics:
living room before move, with french doors to private garden
staircase to second floor
The guest "bed" room -- good luck fitting a bed there!

mystery kitchen built in

Woo hoo! That’s awesome, Morgana! Congratulations on your new home. The pictures are inspiring. You’ve taught me to listen to my Money Honey and, while we’re still rather fresh into the relationship, he never fails to tell me exactly what he needs. Yesterday I was chatting with him on an evening walk and I was wondering what to do to move my business forward. I didn’t like his response when he had nothing to say about moving forward and everything to say about first cleaning up the bits and pieces of financial hoo-haa that I have been putting off! I am listening and taking action!

Looks very lovely and very you, as far as I can tell. I just realized I need to start listening too, for the very same purpose… the walks I’m already taking.
Here’s to listening more closely…

Morgana, thanks for sharing your journey!
As they say: “A picture paints more than a thousand words.” These pictures took my breath away and the words from my mouth were “Wow!” “Aah!” “Oh!”
I’m inspired by your story! I can relate as I too live in an apartment and I know my money honey has been encouraging me to expand. We’re working on the expansion phase right now…
Blessings and more abundance in your new home!

Way to go Morgana! Interesting how your daily walk led to you finding the house… You just never know what following an intuitive pull or suggestion from you Money Honey will lead to…
Sue
P.S. Curious… does your Money Honey have his own ‘man den’ in your house?
June 26th, 2010 at 10:12 am
Very Nice!
nice ‘follow through’ with inspiration to walk each morning…
nice reward with finding your house…
nice hardwood floors in addition to the other lovely items you mentioned…
Congrats!
