There has been so much good news bouncing around this forum lately. It's pretty cool.

August is settling in here with gusto. It's like a sauna outside. Hot and foggy. It's hard to breathe. Yuck. Feel like I need another shower already.

Mohammed is finally starting to relax and accept that he's going to be coming. (I can hear him saying "enshaa Allah if I get the visa") He says that after everything until its become just one big long word that makes me laugh. I haven't seen him his usually bouncing self in months. Alhamdulellah.

I am so not into work mode today. I'm terribly sleepy. At least there will be more then 2 of us on phones today. Yesterday was nuts.

How's your day going?

I'm still laying in bed, surfing the net, thinking abt getting up to start my day - but it's so comfy here!!! 2 pooches at my feet, still a little dark in here, hmmmm could almost go back to sleep. Have a busy but short day at work, then home to do some garage sale work and take a load to my friends house. Then spend a few hours there pricing g-sale stuff for Saturday .

I'm in a poopy mood today. I don't wanna go to work, I wanna go back to bed and pull the covers over my head and cry. Hormones



I WANT GOOD NEWS!!!!!

I am at work.. and man is it humid in here!! Power house needs to crank up the air here!!! I am counting down the days till my husband is here...

ive become addicted to reconstructing old clothing. Found this hiddious old blazer old my mothers and bam bam, three days with me and my trusty Singer It has transformed to a cute short jacket with prarie sleeves.

There are days that life just sucks...I would love to pack my bags, take Jamal and just go and be back on the road traveling...I know that it is so unrealistic but God would I love to do that....
Dorothy
P.S. Sorry to mess up the good mood..............

It's just in the air today. Just was informed I'm on 10 hour work days until after next week. I'm already exhausted so this should be a gas. At least the extra $$$ will pay for my dress and I don't have to contend with rush hour traffic. (blah) lol

Awwwww cheer up ya bett! You'll get your good news soon inshallah..I can feel it!

Hi everyone. Amy and Jean, you guys deserve good news too. Inshaallah you will be posting your happy news soon.

I am still in disbelieve. Eleven days and Hachemi will be here. He is going to pick up his tickets tomorrow in Algiers. When he comes on the 12th he has to fly to Casa the day before from Algiers, so he can catch the early flight to JFK the next day. He told me that ROM will pay for his hotel room. I thought that was cool. Ok Morocco girls that know about Casa, Hachemi wants to see some things while he is there. Do you have any suggestions? I am so afraid for him to be in an unknown place by himself, but he says he will be fine. Today I need to mow the grass. So I better get going before it gets to hot. Hope everyone has a good day.

Meriem

AWWWW....that's what Khallid calls me when I'm being silly!

HI Meriem.

Casa is really easy to get around in and there is a train that goes directly from the airport to one of the main stations in Casa, Casa Voyagers. Casa really isnt a dream local but for a day he could certainly have a good time. He can visit the Mosque Hassan II - it should be seen, its beautiful...to the left of it he can give a hollar to my old neighborhood Dar Lubila (best hammam in my opionion is there..if he is looking for a refresher before his next leg of the journey, "Hamman Tarek" ). Lets see. . . There is the Square of Mohammad V which is basically the city center with gov. buildings and fountains...its quite pretty. The port is cool..good fancy resturants. The medina is fair. Im sure it will all be interesting for him. its a walkable city there are great great great people watching places. My favorite is called "Valencia Ice" its this coffee/ ice cream cafe right in the center of the most ridiculously unsafe intersection with shops everywhere..its on Mohammad V road and in the heart of another cool area called "Maarif" which is this amazingly great neighborhood that has all different shops and good familar food at easy prices. . lots of excited young girls shopping and young men checking out the scene, its so fun to go get a coffee and just watch everyone.
i would have to say Maarif is my favorite place in Casablanca. I could go and get knitting needles and goats cheese in neighboring shops.

Im psyched for him...a fun day in Casa.
good luck!

Jackie

Soon insha'Allah Amy!!!

Two more days to go insha'Allah - i'm excited and nervous, and I may be totally silly and stupid but I'm having all these worries/nightmares about him missing his flight or running into other unanticipated problems, and me waiting at a gate on thursday only to find him NOT coming through the gates

wow all this wonderful news flying around......

I can so relate to this and Moh doesn't even have his visa yet. Ain't we silly gals to go borrowing trouble??? lol

Happy Tuesday

Jean and Amerylu you two are next I have a good feeling for you.

Sarah- That sounds pretty cool I had been thinking about renovating some of my older clothes... let me know how the dress turns out.

Well I hope everyone is feeling less poopey and take care!

Sarah

I am feeling more poopy. I need to hit myself a few times with a wet sponge. Blah.

Who's the idiot who named this threat "Tuesday Tinglies" anyway? (Oh yeah... it was me. Well, there you go.)

*gnawing on her desk and glaring at anyone walking by*

Maybe you just need a trip to the restroom hahaha.

Esalaam, Hello, Salut



This Tuesday seems to be roasting me...way too hot here...Feel like I am in Algeria already ....

O man, still didnt pick up my ticket or get the papers together for the visa... and I will be out of town for the next week or so... O man, no time no time...



Hope everyone else is doing well here... and all Mabrouks to all the SO that are arriving and all the visa approvals.



Peace and Blessings

Thanks Henia, have a nice day!

Sarah

I'm going home.....still in a poopy, poopy mood! Poor Khallid, all I can do is cry when I talk to him. Uh oh...does this mean rock bottom????

*hits Jean a few times with a wet sponge and runs away*

it's always darkest before the dawn

I'm feeling super duper tingly now!!!!! NOA2 has a way about it..... OMG, do I really have to keep working now? I just want to run around the block screaming my head off!!!
Noura

*drips and glares*





Amy, hang in there. I'm feeling ya. Believe me. Fill that mailbox with tears... I'll be there later.

hehehe, you said poopy

HEY that's MY line!!!

I just might do that! LOL! I'm going to sleep now, I'm a bum!



Watch out Laura....your mailbox is next! LOL!

I have been trying to order a frigging pizza online for 30 minutes now. If their stupid website was any heavier I would starve to death!!!!

Ok... after 45 @#(&*-ing minutes of wrestling with the stupid website, I got my pizza ordered. I am dying for pizza. I swear. If I don't get pizza tonight, I will die. End of story. So I'm watching with rapt anticipation (fingers and toes all clenched) waiting for that "your order has been completed" screen to pop up (after a ridiculously long time to load) and it says............

"Thank you for your order. Your pizza will be delivered in approximately 60 minutes."

*faints from low blood sugar, high blood pressure, and pure frustration*

Today has now officially sucked.

Jean,

You crack me up...

Thanks for the laughter... My day hasn't been good at all.

I don't know how much of this I can take...

Sorry...

I will survive

OK.. I have officially lost it...

Amy I have a feeling you will hear good news soon
