It’s not all fun and games…
After my last post on the Coastbusters Sea Kayaking Symposium, Kathryn wrote saying that it sounded like I was “having a really stimulating time down in NZ what with the kayaking and the caving”. Sounds like I’ve been out on an adventure every weekend, but really it’s only been one caving trip and one kayaking trip in the six months we’ve been here.
My reality isn’t really much different from most other people - work five days a week, balancing work time, family time, chores, and occasional personal time. It just so happens that I’ve only written about the good stuff so far!
Why, I’ve enjoyed spending the last couple weekends before Easter looking into the joys of US taxes - New for this year: moving expenses, foreign income, college expenses, rental income! Then I get to do it all again for New Zealand taxes!
And to add to the joy, in just a two day period I managed to kill the car battery by leaving the lights on, scrape the car backing into the garage, and smash my foot along the pavement.
See? It’s not all fun and games…
