The Random Musings of a Jersey Girl & Her Family Finding their Way Around The World
I haven’t updated this site in a while. Life’s been busy. Found a new job. Going on 4 weeks now that I’ve been working there. Kids are back to school. Time goes by quickly when you’re busy so it’s been hard to get to the blog. Anyway I wanted to take a quick minute to […]
I came across this article on my Facebook newsfeed: I normally try to steer clear of opinion pieces of Americans because I don’t want to be exposed to more negativity. But I clicked on this one. I’m thankful that I did. While it saddens me that it happens at all, I’m also happy to know that I’m […]

I’ve encountered more people talking politics here than I ever had while living in the […]

When you first look at me, especially in Australia, you know I’m not quite Caucasian, there’s something else. Tanned olive skin, dark hair, dark eyes, and a slight accent more than just American. […]
A few months ago I had discovered that I had been non-compliant with my American taxes while living in Australia. Yes, even though I do not live nor work in America nor do I get any revenue from America, I still have to do my American taxes. EVERY. YEAR. I was behind on my taxes […]
