Saturday

[Henia 11]

Hello all.

Well Friday ended badly. I was leaving and some numbskull thought it was ok to hit my car right in front of me, nearly gassing me away aaaaaaand *tried* to drive off. O snaps Madame Henia was not having it. I throw my purse at their window trying to get them to stop. I should threw a rock. Cursing (astagfurullah) as mad as I was... the situation let's just say got sticky and the police were no help either. I am so pissed. Nice car blemished now.

I am starting to get sick too.

Well 2 threads closed, not sure why... but I am not even going there. I think I donnot really want to know.

Still did not buy a %*(&@ printer. Went to Best Buy, and hahaha seriously there are NOT the best buy. I found a nice printer that was a 3-n-1 copy scan and print for $50, saw it for $40 at Wal-mart...but ^(*^% you have to buy the USB cable and ink, so it comes out to be $90... ye right...no deal there. Going to Big Lots and all the $1 in my area to *try* a USB cable. I saw them several times at the $1 store...(stupid me never thought to buy one)... for sure I am NOT going to pay $40 for a ^%)(*^ cable.

And of course I ran off time and did not get my passport style photos (Doooh!) Snaps, I really need to send that visa app...I am really going OUT of time now.

But on a happier note: I bought my daughter a (cheapy) Mp3 player and some software to get her ready for 3rd grade (yea!)...

And for the person who asked about DHL: I have used DHL in the past and paid about 90$ for thin letter sized envelope to be delivered to Algerie. Arrived without any complications. Alos have used UPS, paid about $40 for the same sized letter and had no problems with delivery either!

OK, now I am going to bed.

Henia, sorry to hear about the accident that just stinks!!!! I hope you can get your insurance to cover the damages though.

I actually went out tonite for the first time in ages, months even. A friend invited me to a Devils game (hockey - NJ team) and then we had dinner. I just got home, just in time to get comfy and give my sweetie his wake up call for work.

Tomorrow I'm going to hang with my Jordanian girlfriend and her family, she's gonna teach me to make a couple dishes. That's one of the projects I assigned to myself is to pick up a few new recipes. I've been one to eat out 4-6 nights a week, which is expensive and not healthy. I want to get in the habit of cooking more often at home.

I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend (prez day on monday). Enjoy!!!

Oh, that's not good! But it could have been worse maybe? I always try to see the bright side, even as i I am yelling some serious curse words at someone Or maybe I'll try to see the bright side in a week or so anyway

*hugs* for Henia.

Saturday is beginning with a nervous breakdown, waiting for Ahmed to get here. Ive been cleaning the house for four hours to keep busy, but I havent heard from him yet. I checked Lufthansa's website and his flight to and from Germany have come and gone, but he hasnt called. Im just hoping he was hurrying to the gate and made his flight, but didnt have time to call. Its amazing, however, all the ridiculous incidents the female brain can think of LOL.

Psst, my irrational fear is my Dh will get lost in O'Hare and have to live there forever, eating fries out of the trashcan by McDonald's in terminal 5 and not be able to call me, and grow old and die and be burried in one of the planters. I KNOW this will never happen but I keep thinking about it LOLOL!

Exactly! My brain is one big tangled ball, rolling around seeing how many crazy messes it can start. I told him that its more important to make his flight than stop to call me, but Im still a worrywart. And unfortunately, the airline isnt allowed to tell me if he's on the flight. Poo. He's arriving in Ohare in about 8 hours, but Im not too worried about him getting lost. I went through there a week ago on my way home from Morocco so I was able to give him good instructions. Ohare was pretty nice to me too.

That's right! We have a "sweetie watch" tonight!

Its comforting to be able to come here and know there are others watching our progress and ready to lend an ear(eye) when Im stressed. I appreciate it Im gonna try to hit the sack now, Its almost 230. Incha allah I will see my sweetie in a little over 12 hours.

[Nasturtium 500]

Woo! I hope he gets through Ohare easily! I keep making a mental map every time I go there

Thanks Green Eyed Girl and Gabi... I really needed that.

Wow Julianna always wanted an orchid but just not sure if I could handle taking care of one...is it hard?

Alots of prayers for Gabi's SO to arrive safely.... Start the clock countdown plz......

Unfortunately, time moves much slower than this when you're waiting for your love.

Just depends on your conditions and which orchid., The easiest are phals or anything in that alliance, they require similar care to African violets.
