Thirteen Things about Janet: Places I've Lived


1. Brighton, MA: Lived there for the 1st three years.
2. Billerica, MA: from 3-17 and then back and forth over the years.
3. Woburn, MA: 3 days when I was 14 (I ran away)
4. Lowell, MA: Moved in with my high school boyfriend when I was 17; also lived here with Sue, then Michael, by myself & with 2 separate weirdo roommates over the years.
5. Nashua, NH: With Sue. Man we had some fun!
6. Aurora, CO: With Blake, my first ex-husband, for 6 months while he was in tech school for the Air Force.
7. Bedford, MA: With Blake, til we separated and I moved to Lowell by myself & ultimately moved in with Michael.
8. Chelmsford, MA: With the second ex-husband, Lou, aka SFSSDMF, for a bit before we moved to Bedford, MA.
9. Tachikawa, Japan: Lived in a placed called American Village with Lou for 9 months til we moved on base.
10. Fussa, Japan: Lived here 3 years, at Yokota Air Base. I loved it here, Japan. Such a beautiful and interesting place!
11. Newport News, VA: Moved in with Michael's sister, Lynn & her son Jason, when Lou got orders to Patrick AFB in FL; without him being stationed at Yokota, that meant I couldn't live in base housing in Japan and while the general I worked for said he'd sponsor me for a year, the off-base house was so wicked expensive, I just couldn't afford it.
12. Yorktown, VA: Wanted some privacy and a room of my own, so moved here and stay for about a year.
13. Somerville, MA: Got homesick and moved back to MA. Stayed in Somerville for a year, then moved back to my parents' house, where I remain til this day :-)

Wow, you've lived a lot of different places. I don't think I've lived that many differnet places.

Wow, you really got around!!!

Posted by Laura at June 29, 2006 9:07 AM


I can't believe all the places you've lived! I only lived in three different cities in the same state! Wow, Japan I bet was just amazing! I've heard wonderful things about it there!

I feel so sheltered...I've never lived outside of Ohio. And I've only lived in two different cities even though I have moved 7 times.

We moved around a lot when I was kid, but I've pretty much lived in same place for ages. I'm ready to move someplace new.

You've had a lot of adventures it seems - wicked cool!

Posted by Megan at June 29, 2006 9:57 AM


You and me, we've definately been around the block!

Posted by Maribeth at June 29, 2006 9:58 AM


See, I learned something about you today. I didn't know you lived in Japan. How cool is that!

Posted by carmen at June 29, 2006 10:03 AM


Wow, you've lived a few places! I was born in Germany, grew up in Nebraska, went to college in Oklahoma and now live in Kansas City. Much smaller and less exciting list.

Virginia is the closest you've been to where I live here in Charleston. I did alot of moving around too(since 15) and ended up back where I was born.

I didn't realize you'd lived in Colorado. :)

Posted by Lisa at June 29, 2006 1:36 PM


Sounds fun...I've lived in the same area all my life. Maybe one day I will get to travel around...

Posted by fivetimemom at June 29, 2006 2:03 PM


would love to go to Japan some day. It's on my travel list!

This is a great idea! We learn a lot and you get a good review. I might try it sometime...wonder if I've lived in 13 different places. I bet I have. I actually mentioned one in my 13 today. A trailor outside of Houston with cockroaches!

Posted by colleen at June 29, 2006 5:43 PM


No idea you lived in Woburn either! I tried running away too but didn't have much luck ;)

Posted by Lauren at June 29, 2006 7:28 PM

You almost have me beat for moving so much.

Thanks for visiting my TT. Lilacs don't grow in FL...but are one of my very favorites. I mentioned at the bottom that they grew in Michigan where I grew up.

Hey, thanks for the comments on my blog, I'm glad you clicked on me, too! That's pretty neat having lived in Japan, I've not lived anywhere outside the US, although I was born in Alaska and some people seem to forget it's up there. I live in VA now, looks like you've passed by this way before. You must, must go out and get the final QAF. I'm watching the 3rd & 4th episodes tonight. Netflix rocks.

Posted by Susan at June 29, 2006 11:08 PM


I have lived in four different countries, but I haven't had 13 homes...

Posted by mar at June 30, 2006 10:35 AM


Wow you've been all over. My mom lived in PA, NJ and MD as I was growing up and then a few years back she lived in MA for a year as she was contracting at a job there. Beautiful part of the country.

Posted by Christine at June 30, 2006 12:22 PM


Wow, Japan had to be neat. I've lived in Iowa, Colorado, New Mexico & Texas. Mostly Texas.......... yeeehaw!

Posted by PixiePincessMom at June 30, 2006 3:46 PM


Wow! I have only ever lived in one place. :)
