Good Morning and a very happy Tuesday to everyone!

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Off to my internship and than class, scorpions, nasty, when I lived in my home with my ex-husband I found a little tiny baby scorpion in my daughter's bed, talk about freaking out. So I feel your pain, at least it isn't big cockroaches, to me I would rather deal with scorpions than roaches, but watch the wee ones. :blink:

Morning all. Just got back from a nice long weekend at my parents. Now it's back to my 2 jobs (work and Ayman). Ayman gets his shots on Friday. :crying: He still has the Thrush, it just won't go away. So I had the pedi call in the Nystatin this morning. He's not a happy camper. I guess I will be spending the whole night sterilizing all his nipples, pacis and toys.

Glad Noura is ok. Hoping she gets power back soon.

Sorry to hear about the scorpion Nawal. We just found a small one at my parents house yesterday. I hate those things.

Happy Ramadan to all!!!

Happy Tuesday MENA!

I actually had to work yesterday and fasting was painful (litterally :() but my boss let me go 2 hrs early and I was able to take a nap. Unfortunatly was so faint that I just laid on the couch the rest of the day watching the cealing and occasionally trying to catch up on reading for school. I was passed out after prayers and hubby says he couldn't wake me :blush:

Inshalla today will be better :) I go straight from work to school until 9pm tonight, so hopefully there will not be time to think about how thristy I am :thumbs: Got some dates and a bottle of water in my school bag and I'm hopeing to get home with enough time to make prayers and eat a little.

يَايُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءامَنُوا اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَوةِ اِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الصَّبِرِينَ

Kelly, I didn't have super long hair - but it was past my shoulders...well, I was getting what I like to call "hair lazy" and I couldn't take it anymore. I got a short cut and I haven't looked back since. It reminds me of what Katie Holmes has right now...I love it. I wash it at night when I shower and it dries by the time I wake up. In the AM, I just use some styling product and go. It rocks! :thumbs:

:wacko: OMG Poor Hazem!!!! Where was he when it bit him? I told you a billion times, come home, no scorpions here.. Just me and I only bite sometimes :devil:

:no: Roger on the no word to anyone in Egypt!!! (In particular certain BIG mouths ;) )

For sure she'll freak out - MENA Momma's and their "babies" :lol:

I'm at work and it sucks! Today I did the exact thing that I wanted to avoid.. Slept too late and didn't have time to eat.. Jumped up, washed, made up prayer thirty minutes late and ran out the door like a crazy person. Yesterday would have been a much better day to do that considering I didn't have to work so I'm in for a super long hard day. I came in, got everything done like super man (woman) and this way I can stare off into space like a looney for the rest of the day.

I hope that you all have a great day!!! :luv:

Yeah he's in big time pain. Who knew it can take up to one week 4 the pain to go away! Gross. It was a baby scorpion and they don't know when 2 stop stinging you! So he was stung 3 times on his thumb.

I'm off 2 try and sleep before work in about 3 hours. Yikes. Ramadan snd working early do not go together! :)

Ash if you read this don't tell anyone in Egypt about the scorpions. Lol. A particular big mouth will scare Momma! :wacko:

ash, I know what you mean, I hate days like that...the days where you barely have enuf time to brush your teeth and get dressed...then you spend the day feeling "incomplete"

staashi...the thing is, i had short hair my whole life..i was an athlete in high school and some of college so, short hair was soo easy..when i met sofyan, i just started growing it out, and dont get me wrong, I LOVE my long hair (when i do it) its just such a pain in the butt....Im afraid if i cut it i wont be happy and it took me 3 years to grow it this long

Nawal, your poor baby :cry: i hope he will be ok!!
