Thanks Catherine, I'll check on that and see what I can come up with.

Doodle, thanks for your suggestion too, I'll check it out.

He did send me an email at 430 this morning saying he would talk with me later after work. There is a cafe but I don't know his work schedule exactly and I know he must be tired since he got up at 5 this morning and had no nap today!!! :P:lol:

I keep telling him that people don't nap here in the middle of the day! :D

And thanks Noura for the huggles. Hope you two had a nice time this morning!

Oh yeah, Doodle, sounds like you're having a nice day. Why ruin relaxing and recovering with housework??? It can wait til later! :D

Allah tries his chosen people through many hardships, but those who persevere through adversity, surrendering themselves before the will of Allah, shall be blessed with a superb reward.

-The Prophet Muhammad (SAW), as reported by Anas bin Malik

A time will come when the sky is torn apart; when the stars scatter, and the ocean drains away; and when the graves are tossed about, and laid open. At that time every man will be told what he has done, and what he has failed to do; and every woman will be told what she has done, and what she has failed to do.

-Qur'an, Al-Infitar, Surah 82:1-5

No kidding on the naps!! They're gonna have a BIG culture shock when they get here I tell ya!!! Unless the pollution there just makes them tired, in which case they'll be fine since you don't need a gas mask to live here.

Yeah I might just do one load of laundry since I'm out of underwear and call it a day. rofl. My oldest is into bribery lately so maybe I'll pay her to clean up the living room and kitchen. :devil:

There's something to be said for owning about 20+ pairs of undies. :D

I think the pollution probably does have alot to do with how tired they are. I know that my fiance didn't nap as much when he was living in Hurghada and wasn't as tired.

ok load of whites in the washer and the house is "de-cluttered". Haven't pledged the tables yet and don't know if I will. I'm amazed that I have all the windows open today. Feels good to air out the house when I'm sick. I'm envisioning all the germs going outside. :) Don't know what temp it is outside but feels like low 50's which is so freaky since it was in the 20's the last couple of days.

My heart goes out to all those in the midst of these freaky storms. (F)

it's dang hot here today - 77degrees!!! Cold front moving in by Tuesday and we'll be back into the 30s-40s... can you say sinus attack??? :blink: Our trip to the farmer's mkt was fun, then we walked around downtown for awhile and up on the levee. Strawberries are beautiful already, so we bought 1/2 flat and then got Cool Whip & shortcakes for later. We visited my aunt for awhile and now heading over to my parents for a bit. Have a good one everyone...

Doodle, don't overdo it... get some rest so you don't stay sick!

Oh yea, bought more mint today and as soon as we weed the raised flower bed, they're going in to take it over, inch'allah! Then we'll have abundant mint!!!!

Good morning all! I forgot last night that I had to work this morning. Good thing I had my alarm still set. It already started out as a good weekend. Last night I went to my new gym. It was kinda fun. I didn't bring my iPod so I had to listen to their music. Let me tell you, I will remember my iPod from now on. I love being at an all women's gym. There are a lot of muslimahs that work out their too. Anyway, day 1 of my new lifestyle. So far so good. I don't know what I am going to do for lunch, but I am thinking a salad sounds good.

My best friend is flying back into Philly tonight. But the bad thing is that her plane lands in the middle of the Eagles game! So I am hoping that I will be able to find the radio station that has the game on it. Well it will be nice having her here from the weekend again. She's going to come work out with me tomorrow morning. Oh yeah, and did I mention, she's moving here! Yay! It'll be Thelma and Louise together again! And this time she'll be living even closer than when we were in the dorms in college. She's going to be my downstairs neighbor! Anyway, I have a feeling that she will be going through the visa process in the next year or two also.

Anyway, I have to get going. I have a few things I want to look up about PCOS. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

HAPPY (early) BIRTHDAY HENIA!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GO EAGLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

610 WIP- on the am (i think), should have the game.

EDIT- Wait! Is she going with your downstairs neighbor? What!! THis is news!

Happy Saturday everyone. Well... when it becomes Saturday that is. :P

My fiance left for Alexandria just a bit ago and he won't be back til Monday evening. He got online for 5 minutes before he left so he could say goodbye. I cried after he logged off. :crying: I'm such a big baby. *sigh*

Today was the day I should have left for my trip to Egypt (before it was postponed). I checked ticket prices last night and if I don't go til the beginning of April, ticket prices go up to 1800 bucks!!! If we can get me there in February/March, tickets will still go for about 1100. Insha'Allah we'll get the tickets for Feb/March cos I don't think we can afford the 1800 and I'm gonna go crazy if I don't get to Egypt soon. :(:wacko:

And no three day weekend for me. My workplace is waaaay too cheap to give us Monday off. :P

Sorry the name of the website is ASAP Travel Services.

Best of luck

This is the link: ASAPTravelServices

From Dallas to Cairo, it had a range of prices from $819 to $853 . . . which would be great if it is really available . . . you have to call a number to book it. The airlines listed are British Airways, Alitalia, Austrian Airlines and Northwest . . . I'd probably check BA's website too . . . sometimes they offer good deals.

I like to fly Lufthansa and they don't seem to get down that far for tickets anymore, darn!!!
