Two Years In

On 7th Jul 20207th Jul 2020 By lindseysgonemadIn Expat Stuff, Random MusingsLeave a comment

Leading up to our two year mark I couldn’t help but to reflect on what the month leading up to our move was like. I looked back and felt anxious for ourselves. It was a monumental undertaking, there was so much to do and that was just to get us on the plane to the …

Bye Lockdown, on to Phase 1

On 31st May 202031st May 2020 By lindseysgonemadIn Random MusingsLeave a comment

Well hello there Phase 1. We are officially allowed to hang out with people from one other household at a time outside (socially distanced of course). On Tuesday I’ll be hanging out with a friend for the first time in two and a half months. I’m looking forward to that. In looking at the numbers, …

Lockdown – Week… whatever

On 17th Apr 2020 By lindseysgonemadIn UncategorisedLeave a comment

Lockdown has just been extended for another three weeks and I think most of us know it will go on longer than that. I went to two grocery stores this morning. Tesco had more people than usual (it’s a pretty small store) and nobody there understood the concept of personal space, so I grabbed a …

Lockdown – Week Two

On 4th Apr 20204th Apr 2020 By lindseysgonemadIn Uncategorised3 Comments

I’m doing things a little differently for this post, possibly the next few posts. I didn’t do entries for each day, though I’m glad I didn’t since this post is quite long already. Below is just a collection of thoughts and experiences over this last week. I hope you, the reader, are staying safe. I …

Lockdown – Week One

On 28th Mar 202030th Mar 2020 By lindseysgonemadIn UncategorisedLeave a comment

We went into lockdown not quite a week ago. I had already resigned to staying in as much as possible so it doesn’t feel like too much has changed. People are allowed outside once a day for exercise and they can run any essential errands. They can also go to work if they’re not able …

Life… Strange Times

On 22nd Mar 202030th Mar 2020 By lindseysgonemadIn Uncategorised1 Comment

Man… this has been a hard post to get going. There’s no good reason for my slacking off here other than just being distracted. Every time I sit to write a post I lose steam after about a paragraph. I sit and reminisce about the days when one could simply walk into any store and …

Happy 2019!

On 7th Jan 2019 By lindseysgonemadIn Expat Stuff, Random MusingsLeave a comment

Happy 2019! Time keeps marching on and one day bleeds into the next, though I find the end of the year calls for pause and reflection on what the heck happened over the last year and contemplation regarding what one hopes the next year might bring. I’m not much of a goal setter, if I …

Long time, no see!

On 21st Dec 2018 By lindseysgonemadIn Expat Stuff, Random MusingsLeave a comment

Long time, no see! I’m slacking here, I know. We are quickly approaching our six-month mark in Scotland and I can honestly say we’re not quite where I though we’d be by this point; however, all in all things have been pretty alright, more on that later (likely in my New Year's post). Thanksgiving was …

4 Months in (ok, like 4.5 months in)

On 18th Nov 2018 By lindseysgonemadIn Expat StuffLeave a comment

I've dropped the ball a bit on posting weekly as I had intended. I’ve lacked some motivation lately, as I was sick for a little while and am now working on becoming a functioning human being again. I managed to catch the flu for the first time in… I don’t even remember when I last …

Three Months in

On 5th Oct 201825th Oct 2018 By lindseysgonemadIn Expat StuffLeave a comment

It’s hard to believe that we have been here three months. We have crammed a lot into those three months. If I think about it, it actually feels like we’ve been here longer. It’s been such a journey, it doesn’t seem possible that all of this stuff has occurred in the time frame of only …
