Well it's 12:51 CST and I get to start the Monday thread. I have been cooking for the last 5 hours and feel like I have not accomplished a darn thing! I really wanted to make tomorrow awesome for Youssef but I only got 3 kinds of cookies made and Msemmen tonight. I think tomorrow I will make Bghir and some oatmeal, fresh fruit and his favorite yogurt/milk/fruit drink for breakfast. Lunch I'm not positive about yet but probably a tagine of some sort and for dinner I want to make a big meal - with like 3-4 appetizers, a tagine or couscous and something else but I'm not sure what yet. I want to invite my mom and step-dad over for dinner to celebrate Eid with us, even though they are really not into the whole "my daughter is a Muslim" thing, I think it might help for them to celebrate with us.

We went shopping and get Youssef a few new things to wear tomorrow (Old Navy had a sale lol), and got our son some new toys for Eid. (He just got a bunch of new clothes). He got a play food set (Youssef thinks it's weird 'cus he's a boy but he LOVES to play cook) and some airplanes to go with his massive play car collection. I got a new shirt for work too.

I am supposed to start a new job tomorrow but the hiring manager didn't call me Friday afternoon like he said he would, or this weekend so I'm not really sure if I should just show up at the place tomorrow morning (I don't even know what time!) or if I should just wait and see. I'd like to stay home so that I can cook tomorrow but if I have to go I will obviously. I'm really happy to have gotten this job - the pay is so much better, plus it's a desk job which my body is really starting to need. I was diagnosed with anemia last week so being on my feet for 8 hours was really sucking the life out of me. Anyway this went way long! I hope everyone has a great day tomorrow and a Happy Eid if you're celebrating!!

Happy Eid everyone.

I called in sick today because I'm still getting sick. :( I'm never eating at Au Bon Pain again. To think I was worried about eating in Cairo when eating at the north shore mall in Peabody, MA is just as bad. lol.

Hope everyone has a good one. I'm going back to bed as soon as I drop the kiddos off to school.

Happy Monday! Eid Mabrouk!

I had a long weekend spent all of Saturday in the house waiting for the plumber to fix my shower. A part of the wall fell, so it took him a few extra hours. He was there for a grand total of 12 hours! I did a lot of baking too! I baked cookies and bananna bread. Yesterday, I got my husband to take me to Linvilla Orchards and get pumpkins and some fresh produce. Tonight I will make vegetable soupa. My husband went to prayer this morning, and I had to go to work, so I am a little bummed. Oh well! Life is still good. I am so exhausted. I need another day or two of sleep. Well I hope everyone has a great day!

Eid Mabrouk!

Only 7 days and 16 hours until I was born 22 years ago!

Well I guess I am not going to have my whole birthday off anymore. I am going to be leaving early today and leaving early on my birthday. I am just not feeling well at all. I feel like I am going to pass out. I am light-headed and feel nauscious. I am hoping it is just from the migraine I had yesterday. I am feeling so sick. Oh well. I hope everyone has a good day. I am going to be heading home soon. Take care.

I'm home but it's not much better. Anyone know of a link that I can watch Eid prayers from? I've found a couple but you have to be a paid subscriber to watch. Maybe that will get me more in the spirit.

Seems there is a really a bug going around. I start my "official" full time employment on the 6th and will have 120 days probation where I can't miss a single day. Since I've already worked here 120 days without missing one they're giving me next Monday off. I'm delighted.

Last night before I went to sleep I prayed to know in my dreams when Moh would finally get his visa. I've done this a million times with no "answer". I was absolutely shocked when a calendar suddenly popped into my dreams with a date circled on it. It will be interesting to see if it holds true or if its just my subconscious playing games with me.
