  1. S and S that is a wonderful gift. :thumbs: Thumbs up to your Hubby :thumbs:

    Ahmed had a card under my cell phone when I got out of the shower so I thought ok that is my gift which was fine cuz we were going to Atlanta to see Tamara and Adam and go to the Arab Valentine's Party.

    But as we were getting in the car to go to Atlanta he says honey can you get my jacket from the trunk of your car and put in backseat in case I get cold. I said ok and when I opened the trunk there was a gift bag with my favorite candy (Turtles and dark chocolate) and a silver heart picture frame.

    Was sooooo sweet,

  2. Good Morning Mena and Happy Sunday!!

    Ahmed and I have a great time with Tamara and Adam last night at the Arab Valentine's day Party also. :thumbs:

    I have to agree with Tamara the music was a little on the old side...especially compared to what I have been exposed too. But the food was very delicious. Tamara and I both loved the Garlic Tahini......so if anyone knows how to make it we would love to know. :star:

    Hopefully we can get together again soon :)

    Hey MENA, hope everyone has a great day. I am still suprised over my husband's v-day gift and all the trouble he went through to get it. Not sure how many of you read what he did, I wrote it on one of the Valentines threads. He actually got the Author Jean Sasson to autograph a copy of one of her books I hadn't read yet, plus she sent another book and autographed it, and she sent autographed pictures, a nice card and book marks. Just when I was crying and amazed over that, my phone rings and my husband tells me to answer it. It was the Author calling to wish me a happy Valentines day!!! She talked to me for about 5 minutes. Her books are mostly biographies for women from the middle east. She has traveled all over there including Saudi, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, etc. If any of you like to read I really recommend her books. The most famous one is a Princess Trilogy she did where a Saudi Princess told her story of living and growing up in Saudi.

    Wow what a great Valentine's Present....very thoughtful and amazing. :thumbs: Thumbs up for your hubby!!!!! :thumbs:

  3. Maggie Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.

    All marriages take work and compromising but when you add the differences of cultures in there it gets a little more difficult sometimes.

    I can relate well with the taking things he said wrong and him taking things I said wrong. :blush: We have had plenty of those issues but my husband and I have always managed to get them worked out before it has gotten too bad out of hand.

    I am glad to hear it has made your relationship stronger instead of weaker :dance: Wishing you a happy and love filled second year. :star:

    Hope to hear more from you.

  4. Have a Terrific Tuesday everyone!!!!

    I am back at work today.....Brittany my daughter is feeling a little better today bit not much....however, she tired to go to school because she has a test....she texted me and said she is not feeling very well and not sure if she will make it through the day so keep your fingers crossed she makes it and feels better.

    We also got free lunch today at work so that was a plus. :dance:

    Nothing else going on here....so everyone have a blessed day!!! (F)

  5. Well the massage place is MassageEnvy.com first time goers pay only $39 for an hour! After that its only $65 for an hour and sooooooooo worth it! I try to go every 3 months but I really should go more! My mani/pedi salon is a different place than the Massage Envy office. But with the mani/pedi they do give an foot,leg, hand arm and neck massage. GOSH! I cant wait to go again!!!

    sounds great!!!! Sounds like a great deal!! :dance:

  6. Happy Monday! My day started off good, kids in a good mood and cooperating and a phone call from my husband saying that he's missing us like crazy.

    WOW S and S!!!

    PROPS TO YOUR HUBBY! :thumbs:

    So I got my son (who turns 16 tomorrow) and my husband both ready to get the permit.

    One is studying the other one is procrastinating...can you guess who?? :whistle:

    We have had the manual sitting here for 2 months now.

    Hubby hasnt even picked it up.....He speaks and understands excellent English, though I am not sure what is his delay but I know he definitely wants to get his permit.

    MENA Buddies....have a good day

    Had a blah weekend and quite frankly I am ready to rip someone's head off at any given moment :angry:

    Where we live there is no public buses so Ahmed did not drag around any about getting his permit or his License....LOL he was tired of sitting in the house pretty quick. However, getting him to study for his GED and take that is another story all together....he is dragging around about it. :bonk:

  7. Good Morning Everyone :energy:

    I am off work today....called in sick to stay home with my sick daughter. We ended up going to the after hours clinic yesterday afterall and he said he thought it was just a virus too. So I am forcing fluids and soup on her to keep her from dehydrating. But she hasn't had anymore nausea since yesterday. Her fever was just 100.9 today compared to yesterday's 101.9 so maybe it will come on down today and she can get back to college tomorrow.

    I am trying to do some Laundry and a few chores around here while she is sleeping and thought I would pop in and see how everyone is doing......Have a blessed Monday.

    Tasha I am glad you are having a good day with the kids :dance:

    Tamara we are going on vacation in March also but we are headed up your way and then on to North Carolina to visit my sister and her daughters both just had babies and I need to see the new additions to the family.

    Sara your baby is sooooo adorable and has a beautiful smile.

    Jess and Rajaa I to prefer to text to break the silence after a disagreement with my hubby. It just seems easier to say I am sorry in writing rather than outloud. :blush:

    Everyone have a blessed Monday and a wonderful week.

    Cheryl (F)

    Good Morning all! wishing everybody a great week!

    still no luck on finding me my escape, hopefully soon.

    Thanks Maureen Good Luck with your Escape Hunting

  8. All of this sounds exactly what was wrong with me back in the beginning of January. I woke up one morning with side, back pain then started throwing up and feeling terrible. I did go to the doc and he put me on some medicine to help with nauteousness and alot of fluids and off work and alot of rest.

    How long did it last? She has back pain too but can't afford to miss too much school. It is hard to make up days missed in college. I can call her doctor and get some zofran for nausea but she isn't throwing up alot so I do not think she needs it right now. I think it is a virus that needs rest and fluids.

  9. Cheryl, get her alot of fluids such as water, pedialyte, gatorade ect. No colored drinks.

    Maybe she has the flu? or is she throwing up too? If its the flu, maybe theraflu would help. The one that you make into like a tea. Hope she gets well soon. Theres alot of virus stuff going around.

    Thanks Tamara I have her plenty of fluids and and giving her medicine around the clock. She is vomiting some but not alot...just once yesterday morning and again this morning She just wanted 7 UP and chicken noodle soup yesterday......but she is worse today so I am going to pick her some Gatorade and more medicine in a little while. she is finally sleeping right now.

    I feel really bad for her because she has alot of homework to do for her college and she feels so bad right now.

    She is suppose to have her induction ceremony into the Honor Society for her college tomorrow but I do not think she will make it.

  10. oh my gosh!!! Where I go for a deluxe pedi/mani and a 10 minute neck massage is only $35! I absolutely am sold out on going there! :star:

    Wow that a good deal......If it wasn't a three hour drive I would go there :P It is $35 here in alot of places but the one I choose to go to is a bit fancier than the others and they provide free drinks (coffee, Soda, Juice or water) it also includes a nice leg massage with your pedicure and a hand massage with your manicure.

  11. Good Morning MENA and Happy Sat...been a bit since I have been here, just wanted to stop in to say hi and wish you all well!!!!! Hope everybody is having a great day!!! Melinda:)

    Melinda it is so nice to see you around....How are things going with you? Take care Sweetie. (F)
