One month down, many more to go

IMG_8901

It’s been one month since B deployed.  One month down, many more to go..! I can’t say that the time has passed quickly, it did feel like some of the weeks just dragged on and on.  It also didn’t help when I was always a day ahead of the world.  I would keep waking up thinking it was Thursday when it was only Wednesday, or Friday when it was on Thursday.

All in all though, the first month hasn’t been too bad.  I’ve been busy on the weekends with my last minute weekend trip to KL (if you missed it you can read it here and here) and Ana’s birthday celebrations.  Plus my parents also came down on Thursday for a few days, so I’ve definitely not been sitting at home feeling sorry for myself!

My only complaint is that his internet is down.  He did say that the internet would be limited this deployment and well, definitely seems like it.  He’s at least sent me a quick email to let me know the internet is down – ie no Facebook (we chat via FB messenger), so I know that he’s not just ignoring me!! But still, it sucks.  I guess I’ll have to wait for him to call me to be able to talk to him.

The second month I think will drag by, with me in the hospital and bed ridden.  Hopefully I won’t be bedridden for too long, but work is still up in the air.  I’m not sure I’ll be able to physically sit in a chair for 10 hours a day.  And definitely no working out! So let’s see how the second month goes, will have to binge watch Netflix…! Any must-see shows should I need to check out?

Always looking for the next adventure; the next thrill. One day she will find home, most likely where she started off. But even then that's a convoluted answer!

Hi, I’m Julie

Hi, I’m Julie

Welcome to Jewels Wandering! I'm a serial expatter. Wait, is that even a word? I have been moving from one country to another since I was born, having most recently moved back to New York City from Singapore. We all have a story to tell and mine has definitely been an unconventional one. Let's be friends!

Peace out, 2021! 

It wasn’t the greatest year, but it also wasn’t the worst. But I’m glad for this year and it was the year I needed to get back into my own skin and rise! 

Tell me what the best part of 2021 was for you! 

Happy New Years! May 2022 bring you all the love, success and good health! 🤍✨🤍✨

It’s Christmas week! What is everyone up to? I’ll be staying put in NYC with some very low key celebrations. In all honesty, I haven’t really gotten into the festive spirit this year. Do you go all out for the holidays?

Happy December from Key West! It’s been a minute but as the darkness envelopes us earlier in the day, it’s easy to feel out of sync. I must admit, it’s thrown me off and I’m ready to sleep come 7pm but it’s dinner time! So if you’re in Key West, I’d tell you to go have dinner at Blue Heaven which is just off Duval Street. You’ll love it! And if you don’t, then next dinner on me 😉

Manatees and turquoise colored houses, oh my! Love the cheerful colored houses in Key West, it’s a stark contrast from the brick and glass that is NYC! Key West was so fun to walk around and get lost in, my head was like on a swivel trying to catch every detail. Take me back! Have you been?

Welcome to my home. Thought I’d give you a sneak peek! Just kidding, it’s an art gallery/home goods store in Key West that I fell in love with! Unfortunately it was closed at that time and it’s appointment only in the summer. Can you see yourself lounging here? If you’re in Key West, go check them out and report back! ☺️ Where’s your favorite store/gallery?
