Update

It's now April, it has been 4-5 months since I last updated my blog(s).

Let's see of all the changes that happened since then.

I went for Hajj in Dec 2007. Actually my husband and I won the trip to Hajj.

I remember recieving a phone call and a man on the phone telling me that I won a trip for Hajj. I asked him how he got my number, and he told me a sister gave it to him. I asked if this was a joke. He said it wasn't a joke and that it was real. That's when I told him to talk to my husband about it.

Anyways to make a long story short, we were able to go for Hajj as long as this production company for Saudi channel 2 would be able to film a documentary on Hajj called "Journey of a Life time". So we were able to do our Hajj, yet we still had to do some filming of Hajj rites and things. It was good. It was an amazing experience. Alhamdulillah.
So, it's about 20 episodes series and if you get satellite, depending on your local area check for a show called "Journey of a Life time" Saudi channel 2, production by Waseelah Production Company.

We also moved into a new home in Dec 2007.

Isa turned 6 in Dec 2007, Daliyah turned 2 in Jan 2008, and Ibrahim turned 10 in March 2008.

There's not much really going on, except the kids are getting older and bigger.

Daliyah wants to be potty trained so she insists that diapers are only for babies and she's a big girl. She also wants to do everything on her own without me helping her or even assisting her or even telling her how to do it. She's real stubborn, and has her own set mind frame on how to do things and insists she knows how to do it even at her little young age of hers.

I'm sure she'll learn to read soon too.

Well that's basically it, except for that I'm still getting my sinusitis / migraines daily, with my allergies and asthma acting up every so now and then, once or twice a day, sometimes every other day. It's a real hassle because everyone says it's within the "jordan air". Some have said to see a naturalist or homeopathic doctor about it, but, he's very expensive and people says it's worth it. I said, yes but even if it's worth it, what if you don't have it? What if it's so expensive that you can't afford that price and if it's on a continuous regular basis how would that fit into your budget?

Yes, these people that advise this can say this to me easily because they're either single or just newlywed so they don't have any kids, or the ones that do have kids have just one, not 3 like I do.

*Sigh*
It'll get better insha'Allah I hope and pray.

Past couple of days

I don't know if any of the people in my neighborhood heard this or not. But, late at night, last night. Crazy guys in their cars honking their horns up and down the streets past midnight.

I can understand if you're in a busy street and a noisy one. But, why a local neighborhood street? Why a quiet street? Why our street of all places to go and have your joyride in and celebrations?

If that wasn't bad enough Fireworks were going on and off all throughout the neighborhood. Some from very afar that you could still hear it from where you were, and some close by. Is election really that big of a deal here? Can't they do it like normal people and celebrate all that stuff in the morning, or perhaps at a decent hour?

Most of everyone in our neighborhood was asleep except I. I think I was the only one up, wait, Umm Z was up too and I think I heard a few sisters complaining that they couldn't sleep either.

And it rained all night long. It rained during the day early this morning drizzling and then pouring down hard.

As I went to pick up some bread from the bakery, the taxi driver refused to take me back such a short distance. I refused to get out of the taxi and get soaked. So as he sat and kept saying "La, la, la" kinda reminded me of the smurfs going on their march singing their la la la song.
I kept insisting, "Yes. It's only a short distance. Please."

Finally, he did. He earned a good 25 kirsh. He should be happy rather than grouchy.

Sheesh. I think I told another taxi driver that it was against the law for him to refusing to take me and I should report him. He took me to my destination grumbling under his breath some things in Arabic that I had no clue what he was saying because he was speaking too fast and I couldn't understand the jibberish.

So, Wednesdays are my days to be free. Get free time to myself. However, this day has to be the day for errands then I'll get my free time without the kids.

Next week I'll be moving into my new apartment. I can hardly wait. I'm already shipping things there so it doesn't have to be one BIG MOVE that day. It would be mighty stressful to be stacking boxes one after another, on top of each other and next to each other, side by side, all in a row. Just too much.

Not to mention, the kids might change their mind and open up the boxes or take a peek inside to see if they can live without it for a week.

I told my hubby that he should take the rest of my clothes and just leave behind 6 pairs of my clothes. I can adjust in these, and wash them. But, all the others could go. Same for the kids clothes, leave a bunch out.

I'm a bit ticked though that their winter clothing was all unpacked. That means I have to re-pack it again and it's going to take me a very long time to do that. So, I have to pack that up, pack up the kids books. My things, their clothes, my clothes, and kitchen things and bathroom things.

:( If only I could do one of those *PRESTO* and voila it's there already in the exact place that I want it to be.

But, that's impossible and one can only dream of such opportunities and chances like that.

Canadian Muslim Woman files Complaint Over Dress Code

I read this and was appalled. Is it really that much of a big deal that she did it 2" longer than the usual short mini skirt?

I would like to know if this is out of a safety precaution, or is it because for the sake of impressing the others with how GOOD you can look.

I know this sister didn't want to do it for the image of the people of looking GOOD in their eyes, in the sense of the way they wanted her to by wearing a short mini skirt. I don't think it's a big deal for her to wear a long skirt. If they had no problem with it in the beginning when she started, why start now?

Were they complaints against her because people felt she didn't follow the uniform rules of having pants or mini skirts? Is her service so unsatisfactory that she had to lose her job over this issue?

I hate it when certain places makes certain people lose their jobs because of the way they are dressed. Either they're dressed down, or they're dressed up it's all about image to them. One sister chose to wear the hijab to her work. She was working there for two years, she was having a great time. She finally decided to change herself and wear the head-scarf. Her employers, her boss and co-workers all knew she was a Muslim. They had no problem with it until she started wearing the head-scarf. Next thing she knew she was out of a job.

Of course, they really didn't say specifically it was because of her hijab. Their excuse was they had to lay off a few people and unfortunately she had to be the one to go. It's a mere coincidence that it just happened around the time she decided to wear it.

Then, there is another one in where she is a Muslim but, does not cover and was told in order to work here for us you would have to.

I think, it's no one's duty or rights to tell someone how they should be able to dress. If they want to dress modestly that's up to them. And remember, in the end everything is between them and Allah Alone. So, us making complaints isn't going to make the person change their mind. In fact, they'll be more determined just to spite you.

So , remember that next time when you come across someone like that.

Safety Re call backs

I'm asking everyone to check out this article.
http://parentcenter.babycenter.com/child-safety-recalls?scid=pcbulletin:20071119:0:0:0

It has some important things in there that could save your own life as well as your children's life or anyone else's life that may come in contact with those products.

I don't know what it is these days with so many contaminated products out there and so many call backs for these products. All they give is a pardon apology, yet it's only after hundreds of sick kids, and several kids death for them to take this seriously and stop selling it.

But, why not do a thorough examination of the products before deciding to skip that and take the risk and chance of selling it. Do they seriously think we're that dense that we simply do not care about the future of our lives and others?

I don't know. I remember this summer when my son Isa wanted the Curious George doll and the storybook, activity book that was included with it. It was a choice between that and a Tamagotchi and luckily he went with the Tamagootchi is what I would prefer to call it

But, why at the expense of our children? Now there is this crazy thing of bathrobes? What will they think of next? Piggy shoes? Tickle me Elmo or any singing Elmo will drive you mad?

Wait, that already happens with no safety callbacks on that. Hmm. Go figure, that's not important enough so we have to suffer the consequences.

What to Keep in the Medicine Chest

What to keep in the medicine chestReviewed by the BabyCenter Medical Advisory Board


With a young child around, it's important to have a well-stocked medicine cabinet or medicine bag (which can be stored out of reach and is portable) so you can quickly deal with the rashes, fevers, and other common ailments that children are prone to, as well as handle the ins and outs of daily care.


Here are our must-haves:

• Digital thermometer
• Children's non-aspirin liquid pain reliever (acetaminophen or ibuprofen)
• Topical calamine lotion or hydrocortisone cream (1/2 percent) for insect bites and rashes
• Rubbing alcohol to clean thermometers, tweezers, and scissors
• Petroleum jelly to lubricate rectal thermometer
• Antibacterial ointment for cuts and for scrapes
• Tweezers for taking out splinters and ticks
• A pair of sharp scissors
• A pair of safety scissors for clipping little nails
• Sunscreen
• Child-safe insect repellent
• Nasal aspirator bulb syringe for drawing mucus out of a stuffy nose (not the pointy-ended ear syringe)
• An assortment of adhesive bandage strips in various sizes and shapes.
• Gauze rolls (1/2 to 2 inches wide)• Gauze pads (2x2 and 4x4 inches)
• Adhesive tape
• Sterilized cotton balls
• Cotton-tipped swabs
• Mild liquid soap (antibacterial and deodorant soaps may be too strong for children's sensitive skin)
• Moisturizing cream
• A medicine dropper, oral syringe, or calibrated cup or spoon for administering medicines
• A package of tongue depressors to check sore throats
• A heating pad
• A hot-water bottle and ice pack
• A small flashlight to check ears, nose, throat, and eyes
• First-Aid manual. The American Red Cross's Standard First Aid & Personal Safety gives detailed advice for handling both minor and major emergencies.
• Rehydration fluid


FYI: If your child is allergic to bee stings, peanuts, or shellfish, or if he has some other type of life-threatening allergy, carry an epinephrine kit with you and keep another one in your first-aid kit.

I ask you how many of us have the above items in their medicine cabinet? Honestly, I think I use to have a bunch of this stuff above awhile back. But, I haven't had a chance to get them here in Jordan even though they are available. I guess we all have to start somewhere. And here is the list for us to stock up on just in case.

7 Medicines you shouldn't give your children

Review by the BabyCenter Medical Advisory Board

Children are much more likely than adults to have adverse drug reactions, so giving your child prescription or over-the-counter (OTC) medication is serious business. Here are some medicines you shouldn't give your preschooler:

Aspirin: Never give your child aspirin or any medication containing aspirin. Aspirin can make a child susceptible to Reye's syndrome — a rare but potentially fatal illness. Don't assume that the children's medicines found in drugstores will be aspirin-free. Aspirin is sometimes referred to as "salicylate" or "acetylsalicylic acid." Read labels carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist if you're not sure whether a product contains aspirin.


Over-the-counter cough and cold medicines: In October 2007 a U.S. Food and Drug Administration advisory committee voted to recommend that these medicines not be given to children under 6 years old. Little or no testing has been done to determine how effective they are in young children (although studies have shown them to be no better than a placebo in kids under age 2) and what dosages are safe. And an overdose can cause dangerous side effects. So if your preschooler is miserable with a cold, try other options, like a humidifier and plenty of liquids.

Anti-nausea medications: Don't give your child an anti-nausea medication (prescription or OTC) unless his doctor specifically recommends it. Most bouts of vomiting are pretty short-lived, and children usually handle them just fine without any medication. In addition, anti-nausea medications have risks and possible complications. (If your child is vomiting and begins to get dehydrated, contact his doctor for advice on what to do.)


Adult medications: Giving your child a smaller dose of medicine meant for an adult is dangerous. If the label doesn't indicate an appropriate dose for a child, don't give that medication to your preschooler.

Any medication prescribed for someone else or for another reason: Prescription drugs intended for other people (like a sibling) or to treat other illnesses may be ineffective or even dangerous when given to your child. Give him only medicine prescribed for him and his specific condition.


Anything expired: Toss out medicines, prescription and OTC alike, as soon as they expire. Also get rid of discolored or crumbly medicines — basically anything that doesn't look the way it did when you first bought it. After the use-by date, medications may no longer be effective and can even be harmful. Don't flush old drugs down the toilet, as they can contaminate ground water and end up in the drinking water supply. See what our expert says about how to safely dispose of expired medication.


Extra acetaminophen: Some medicines contain acetaminophen to help ease fever and pain, so be careful not to give your preschooler an additional separate dose of acetaminophen. If you're not sure what's in a particular medicine, don't give her acetaminophen or ibuprofen until you've first gotten the okay from your doctor or pharmacist.


A cautionary note: These two types of medications aren't 100 percent off-limits, but you should carefully consider whether and how to give them to your child:


Chewables:

Most preschoolers can handle chewable tablets, especially those that are fast-melting. But keep an eye on your child when you give him a chewable, especially if he isn't proficiently chewing solids yet. If you think chewables might be a choking hazard for your child, crush the tablet and put it in a spoonful of soft food, like yogurt or applesauce. (Of course, you need to make sure your child eats the entire spoonful in order to get the complete dose.)


Some herbal remedies:


Many herbal remedies are gentle and safe, but just because something is natural, or derived from a plant, doesn't mean that it's safe for your preschooler. Herbal products can cause allergic reactions, liver damage, and high blood pressure. In certain doses or when combined with the wrong medications, they can be fatal.


Check with your child's doctor or an alternative medicine practitioner before giving your child any herbal products. And always let the doctor know about herbal remedies your child's taking before she prescribes a medication.


I wanted to say I read this and I don't know how many of us will follow this important piece of news. Will we continue to give our children these medicines that we're advised to stay away from because this is what we used for ourselves and we were fine so should they? Or will we use the saying it's better to be safe than sorry.

Pizza Hut & Nothing But

So, I tried one of the Pizza Huts here. A couple of friends of mine and I went out for dinner here. We got into the restaurant and rather than us being seated at our seats, we were told to find our own seats anywhere we wanted. Since, there was no one really in the restaurant besides ourselves, and a few other guys seated at another table, we sat at a booth near a window overlooking below outside in the busy streets.

We settled in, and were given our menus only two menus for us three, however, one was in Arabic, and the other in English.

We took only a couple of minutes to decide what we wanted and waited for the waiter to show up to take our orders. He didn't show up. We had to flag him down. We decided on a special deal price for 4, 2 medium specialty pizzas, with 4 garlic bread, 4 drinks, and an order of salad.

We decided to go for cheese garlic bread, and the vegetarian and meat lovers specialty pizzas with the cheese bites at the ends as crusts.

Then, we saw an appetizer that said grilled shredded chicken in BBQ sauce rolled up in a tortilla bread, and with salsa as dip. These looked good, so we ordered that as well.

I asked for an Orange Fanta, whereas my two friends asked for Pepsi.
Several minutes later, they brought us our table mats, our forks, and knives. Then, we were given our salad plate to get our own salad.

We waited several other minutes, and our drinks were brought. They forgot my Orange Fanta. I was given a Pepsi instead. I told them, I didn't order a Pepsi. They shrugged their head like they forgot what I ordered and I told them again that I wanted an Orange Fanta. They nodded and went away.

My friends started taking sips of their Pepsi in a plastic glass. They were given straws and we were told that they ran out of ice so the drinks were not cold at all, but, very warm.
Several minutes passed again, and the garlic bread with cheese was brought. We ate that up and I was wondering where my drink was, and why it was taking them so long to get the drink.

Were they making it fresh? Were they out in the back squeezing oranges, adding the baking soda, sugar and adding the water? They sure were taking a very long time to bring my drink.
I asked again, and was told it was coming. They brought a can several minutes later and gave me a straw. Where was my plastic cup? Why didn't I get one? They didn't say as to why I was given just a measly can, where my friends were given plastic cups.

So, we waited, and waited and wondered where these chicken tortillas were. Finally, our pizzas came. Talk about small little things. This is what they call a medium pizza? We were thinking, we should have gone with one pizza with these cheese bites at the end, and using another with the normal pan crust.

As we ate our pizza slices, we kept pondering as to if they simply forgot our appetizer and whether or not, they would charge us for it. And if they did charge us for it, would we object and refuse to pay the bill? And would they simply force us to pay, even though we didn't get the order? What would their excuse be?

We waited, and waited as we listened to some 80's music playing. They played several songs by Celine Dion, Bryan Adams, Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, Mariah Carey, Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder, and a few dozen others while we were still waiting for the waiters.

We saw one and asked for our bill and to pack up the rest of our food in 3 separate boxes. We even divided how we wanted each of the slices onto our plates. He took the leftovers away and brought back all of the leftovers in ONE box.

We asked for a smaller take away one as we all had to go our own separate ways and we wanted to split them between the three of us. So, they took the box away again and came back several minutes later with 3 personal size boxes and the big box again for us to split it our own way.

*Whew* You think that would be over now? Nope, we were still waiting for our bill. We waited, and pondered if they were using the old method of counting it by hand. Nope, we saw them calculating everything onto the cash register and here he brought our bill.

So, he did charge us after all for the chicken tortillas even though we didn't get it. He insisted he did serve it to us, and we told him clearly we didn't get it, and we weren't going to pay for something that we didn't get and he should take it off.

He tried to smile and laugh about his mistake and try to tell us we should still pay for it anyways and he'll prepare the order for us which will take another several minutes probably another 30 minutes or so to prepare.

We declined and said no, take it off our bill, we have to go homes to our families please. So, after 15 minutes of waiting, they took it off our bill and we paid and wondered how much we should tip him?
50 cents? 75 cents? My friend opted to tip him only 75 cents I think, got up and gathered our things and headed back.

I would say this place needs improvement BIG time. They would need better customer service as what they clearly displayed was not accepted at all. So my review for that place out of a ten would be a 4. Yes, the food was alright, not that bad, but, still they need to improve it better if they want to reach a 10 or even for me to go pass 6.

Honestly, do you think we did the right thing in complaining about the food taking so long? And the right thing about refusing to pay for something we clearly did not order?

Email me your opinions, and comments and even if you have similar experiences such as this, share it if you can or wish, and we can sit back and relate and say: "When will they ever learn?"

The location of this Pizza Hut is in Amman, Jordan on University Street, right next to the Popeyes and all the other Fast Food restaurants.

Colors of My Walls & Carpets

Assalamu alaikum wr wb

I have not posted here in ages because I have been busy with the children, and living here in Amman, Jordan.

In less than two weeks, I'll be moving into a new apartment in where I will have to decide right this week, actually going in a day or two the colors for my walls and the colors for my carpets.

Now, I picked out a few colors here and there for both of them. However, my husband has other plans or other colors in mind. For example, he wanted a grey color for the walls and carpet telling me it looks sophiscated. I think gray just looks dull. I don't like gray carpets nor gray walls. No offense, to anyone that has that in their homes, but, to me gray just sounds *Blech*

A friend of mine even agreed that gray would look like a hospital or a mental institution, which I said perfect place for where my hubby would want to dwell in if he got to pick this color. But, this is our home, and since I'll be living in it more than he will because he'll be at work.

He practically lives at work too, so having it in his colors what for? It should be comfy to me since I'll be here most of the time with the children and myself. Yes, I'll be entertaining tons of sisters in the area and I think most of them would agree that my colors are nice too.

He should just give it a chance, I'm really not that bad with colors so I really don't know why he seems to think that way. Alhamdulillah, I do know I shouldn't really complain because there has been worse cases in where people don't really have a choice at all. It's my "final say" and that's it. At least, he's not necessarily saying, "It's my final say, my final decision, not your choice but, mine."

But, still I want to be able to pick my own colors since I'll be here for quite a few years.

So, I thought about my room with a nice medium-light lavender/lilac color. I'm sorry, but, I really love that color. For the longest time I have loved that color and I'm never sick of that color. I think that color on my walls would go nicely.

My hubby disagrees, especially if it's for "our room" he says. I said, "ok not our room than perhaps the ladies salon." He disagreed, I said "ok. How about the kitchen?" He disagreed again and said the kitchen and bathroom had tiles so you didn't need color in there. Am I suppose to pick the broom closet as a place for me to pick my own colors for the walls and carpet? So, this tiny little room where if I were to stretch, really stretch my arms out wide I could be touching both sides this is where I'm suppose to get to pick my own colors? That doesn't seem right or fair at all. So, my room or our room it is. :D

It's not like I picked a bad color, it's a nice flowery, scented color for the walls. It'll add a nice brightness to the room. I picked a nice pistachio light green for the carpet. I'll even pick an ivory black one if he disagrees as both go really nice with the lilac. But, I think he wanted me to go for the beige, a medium beige or a gold with that. I told him that those didn't go well at all.

I even went on this one site called http://www.shawfloors.com and here it showed me a range of carpet styles and colors and I could also do one of where it would show how it would look in the room, and you could pick colors of the walls to match it accordingly.

I think the color I picked for "our room" will look nice. It just needs a chance. It'll work and eventually in the end he'll see that I'm right. He should realize that by now after 10 years of marriage that I'm almost always right. Even all his friends will comment to him on something and he'll agree even though that was my opinion and he says it sounded better from his friend than from me. *rolls eyes*

As for the boys room, I decided on a light blue for the walls and a dark green for the carpet. Or even going with 2 walls of the light blue color and 2 walls of the light green color and a dark green carpet. My boys want to use the blue for the top of the walls going all the way around for the sky color, and use the bottom half including the carpet for the green for the grass. They want to hang little balls from the ceiling as their planets, and put some cotton on the walls for clouds and hang a sun picture and a moon picture. I told them their glow in the dark stickers could work really nice on the ceiling.

My hubby thinks these colors will just make the room look like a "fun clown house" and he wanted to go with a more entertaining look. I told him, these are the children's room, if you go with an entertaining look rather than a look that they're pleased with. They won't really look forward to being in their rooms or sleeping. They won't enjoy their time here, rather they'll look forward to returning back as quickly as possible because their opinions don't matter.

Besides, why should their room look entertaining anways? It's a kids room. Who are you going to entertain in there other than other children? Other children won't find the gray or beige colors as "fun" colors. Not to mention the mess they'd make and beige and gray you would definitely see it.

Now, there's my daughter's Daliyah's room and it'll also be used as a guest room for overnight guests to stay in. This room will be a light-medium pink walls color and a dark pink carpet. Again, he disagrees saying another color would be better. I think going with a medium dark color for the carpets, especially in the kids room is better, less messier than a light color.

I know, he looks at his friends places, the ones that have no children and say, "Check theirs out it's nice." But, remember because they have no children they go with colors that will go according to them. Sure, they can pick nice light colors and pick furniture that will go with them. But, glass tables, and dining tables and coffee tables with glass in them don't work well with children at all. It does not matter if you don't allow your children in certain rooms where these items are, accidents happen and it's better to be safe than sorry.

Now the ladies salon and men's salon have already been picked and we've pretty much AGREED on the colors of the walls and the carpets in there. That is pretty much surprising too. But, we're going according with what the carpets and our floor sofas are matching with.

I do want to add additional items to the house to make it more homely and more comfy to me. I have a picture in my mind as to how I want things to look, and where I want things to go and organize it. It's all in my head. I just have to take the steps into getting it done and insha'Allah hopefully it'll look as good as in my head as it is in real life.

If anyone has any suggestions or comments I would appreciate it. Please be kind though, the last time I really blogged. That is, when I really blogged I got a lot of unkind comments that made me feel that I really couldn't post much on my blog without people pointing fingers and giving me stern looks.

Yes, I have issues but people have issues, this is why we feel better when we vent and rant and especially writing down here it's all out and not bottled up inside causing more stress which is not healthy at all.

Alhamdulillah, I'll try to post as often as I can. I don't know if I'll be able to be as active as my other blogging friends. But, we'll see insha'Allah and only time will tell.

On a note to end this entry I'll leave it at, if any sisters in Amman want to help me with organizing, unpacking and watching the kids feel free to contact me. :) I'll be more than happy to accept your gracious offer. Now, I just need to figure out where I'm going to get 20-30 really big boxes for me to put my things into.

Someone suggested I should just put them into plastic bags and garbage bags and carry them back and forth. Ok, I know it's only a 5 min walk away and only a 1-2 min drive away. But, who has all that energy to go back and forth with heavy plastic bags? I rather get the mini truck to load all our things. But, I don't want to do it all in one day. I want to space it out within these two weeks and move the things that I'm not using right now there now. And, all the things that I'm using to get there eventually when I get there.

So, my kids aren't going to read all their books on their bookshelf right now. They'll read a few here and there, so to go with their favorite books and putting that aside and taking the rest to the new place would be better. Same for the children's toys and my things. Just putting them aside at the new place and then at the final end moving the rest of them will be less stressful.

With my sinusitis (severe headaches) and allergy, and asthma attacks these past 3 months I think I want to try to take it easy as much as possible. But, also move before the cold hits in.

:) JazakuAllahkhairun for reading. So all comments are appreciated.

April Updates

Hey.
Ok. Here's a quick update.
Isa turned 5 in December, Ibrahim turned 9 last month. Daliyah turned 1 in Jan, now she is 15 months old.

I am still living in Jordan. I will be staying here longer than intended. We like it here. It's a nice neighborhood and I'm keeping myself busy with things going on in the community as well as catering. My main people that order from me are students studying Arabic at an Institute called Qasid and a few others around that just don't feel like cooking and want some Indian food at a low price without taking a taxi and eating it in the comforts of their own home.

Ok. Well. I will try to post up a picture or two.
This is my rant and rave for today.
take Care

Almost here

I'm due in about 3 days, well right now it's Tuesday night Jan 3rd, and I'm due on Friday Jan 6th, 2006. The days are becoming closer and the time went by so fast. Just want to ask everyone to say a prayer for me that's all.
Take Care
