Here I am, a couple of weeks past our deadline for project 6, and I'm only really at the beginning! So much has been happening in the past couple of months.. we've moved back to the UK for the winter, which is a huge change from being so nomadic and free, to suddenly have a house again and housemates and all the other things that come from being a bit more stable. I brought back some things from Nepal to sell over christmas and I've been working really hard getting markets, transport and childcare organised. As of yesterday we now have some wheels, so hopefully next weekend will be the first market stall. This is all part of my project 3 planning. Working out a route to a sustainable financial future is very much what is happening in my every day and so much thought and planning is going into it. But as for writing anything up into a design, well I have just been so consumed thinking about it all and living into my thinking that I haven't done any design writing on here! Now I am realising that it all goes together though, so it should be merging together over the next few days and weeks. I'm still right at the beginning of implementing, so I'm having the opportunity to try out different designs/plans to see what will work for me. I'm getting a good idea of how it feels to work in a less linear way so far with this project. I've had several conversations the past few months about how life designs rarely work themselves through the standard pattern of observations, boundaries, resources etc etc.. in a set order. So far here I have been taking some observations and testing them out, and giving myself some time to allow some of the questions that came up at the beginning to sink in and observe the changes in my thinking that has created. It feels much more circular in method, so far. Just got to get on with it now.
