  • Very weird week.

    Father in law passed at the beginning of the month and his funeral was this week. It’s been a terrible couple of months after we also lost our dog (my user-namesake) back in April.

    On the flip side, we collected our new Iggy puppy, Devon, last Friday and he has been a gem. We even took him to the funeral.

    On balance it was good, I’m still just a bit worried about my husband. I think he is okay but how do you know?

  • Don’t forget that if you renounce they publish your name on a list of people who have renounced citizenship.

    Absolutely ridiculous that we are even required to file, only the US and Eritrea run a system like this.

    Add onto that the US requires forms even for people resident and working in the US (rather than the tax system of most developed nations where a majority of taxpayers have their taxes deducted from their wages and everything is calculated by that country’s tax authority), and you’ve got yourself a double shitshow.

    Sure it might not be the most difficult thing to do but damn it is stupid.
