Tuesday in MENA

[Nasturtium 500]

Mine shaves his head, too. I think it's HOT! Plus we don't have to worry about finding a barber. I shave for him every two weeks or so.

Mine elected to shave his head and it looks awesome! It's about 1/2" now, and since it's so ioncredibly tightly curly, instead of poofing like a normal buzz cut, it just lays flat.

I am so with you!

abdou needs to get his hair cut too. i worry because there are no black barbers around here and i'm not sure how to find a ME/NA one. he's got very african coarse hair!

today we cleaned house. poor guy only has a few outfits to wear since jetblue lost his bag. laundry is done often here. lol

i can't believe people pay $600 for a studio! i seriously need to move away and buy a house somewhere cheap! are there any areas of boston that are nice yet still affordable?? i'm kind of considering that area...maybe. i miss the east coast badly!!!

Hey Dee, how's your husband doing with the vegetarian diet or are you cooking meat now for him? I know some of these guys would go nuts without meat in their diet.

I;ve agreed I can cook him seafood - fish/ shrimp..(of course with out the heads attached )

I did take him to a Halal rest. last week.. but he didnt like it.. nothing compares to Mom's cooking

That sounds like a good compromise.

Of course nothing is like Mom's home cooking but what can ya do? Does he like any "American" foods?

i guess.. he is eatting the food I give him.. which is a good sign.. cause he wont even eat the food his Sisters cook..

Well im glad i dont have to worry about a barber for Medo cus he has long hair. Just the way i like it on my man! Also i cooked for him most the time in Egypt and he cant WAIT to get here for my american cooking. He misses my gravey the most. And the crispy baked chicken. When i mention it to him he says "stop teaseing me" Other then that today im off of work and spending the day online with my baby

[Aymerlu 3]

We've been moving the last few days and I'm beat! DSL was SUPPOSED to be hooked up at the house yesterday......and it's still not connected. I swear the do-do's at Century Tel are going to make me mental. Now they say MAYBE by Thursday. I had to run to my parents house to check in on VJ! Now that's sad! Hope everyone is well and I hope to be back online shortly!

Jen how did he/you pay for his ticket? Some credit cards automatically cover you for lost luggage insurance. Might want to look into it. I always buy travel insurance when I go away. It is never more than $100 and covers like $1,000 in lost luggage...which is normally worth more than what is packed anyway. lol. Might want to see if you're covered and try to get reimbursed.

[Donna A 4]

well here it is...6:00 pm and i just woke up. so i slept all day and have no plans but to cook dinner and probably go back to bed tonight again.

i still am trying to figure out why the heck on the nights i work i have a hard time sleeping but on my days off i can sleep non stop.

Small silly thing that just put a huge smile on my face

My bridal shower is on Sept 2, and the invites went out last Thursday. I just too a peek at my registry and I can see which gifts have been purchased

Internet has definitely changed things. I remember going to register at the Bon Marche as a bride in the 80's...it was paper and pen all the way... No cheating.
