Liar liar, your bum’s on fire

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

I can’t stand liars. First mistake! A co-worker of mine said she was traveling to x-country and their visas will take up to 2 weeks. Visa for x-country takes no more than 10 days. Her second mistake! Then as she was talking, she mentioned she won’t be taking her mobile phone with her and she’ll be leaving it on the charger at home so we can call and msg her!!! *lifting an eyebrow* at that! Third mistake. The next day she changed her destination from x-country to y-country and she said visa for y-country takes only 2 days. Visa to y-country takes 4 days. All the girls knew she was lying and something just didn’t add up, but why lie. Plus it would’ve been better if she had said she was just leaving to x-country and left out any details if she was unsure of them, just to make the lie more credible.

9 days off

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Last week I took some time off work. I didn’t do much, just spent it sleeping and tidying up. No plans for the summer. I’m thinking of going to Sahara resort but they’re fully booked in the weekends. I hope it doesn’t turn into one boring summer for us. I’m working on toilet training my son, he’s turning 3yrs in August. Yesterday I had him in briefs, not for the 1st time though. He didn’t want to wear his diapers by the time it was bedtime lol. I rushed him to the toilet every time he wanted to go. It was great! Today I’m getting him a potty and new underwear that he can choose himself. It’s gonna be fun! I need some contacts as well, if I forget to buy some I’ll have to use the same pair I’m wearing now. I opened the fridge yesterday and Teresa failed to tell me that we ran out of cucumbers. I wasn’t mad at her. It’s not the 1st time. So I have to buy some today. Can’t live without cucumbers! I need to fill my car with gas after work too. I’m trying to remember one more thing I needed from the co-op, can’t remember what it is. Maybe nothing. As for my son’s b-day, we’re thinking of doing a b-day party for him but I’m not sure where. His previous birthdays were celebrated at home. any suggestions?

After 3 sleepless nights

Monday, July 7th, 2008

Ever since we got the new mattress and we’ve had trouble sleeping. The day before yesterday was the worst for me. I had a backache and neck pain during sleep. And weird thing is once I got up the pain would magically go away. Both of us shared the same feeling. We had a 7 day trial (because we’re in Kuwait we don’t get the 30 days trial) but still we had more than enough time to return it back. Instead we went for the hard latex mattress, no spring. hope we went with the right choice this time.

KDD Pina Colada

Saturday, July 5th, 2008

I noticed that co-ops were selling KDD’s new pina colada drink. Husband loves pina colada. I bought two to try. Last night I tried it and I loved it. Husband says it had more milk than juice, I didn’t care, for me it was more than good. I hate KDD

I need a vacation badly

I want to take a week off but the weather doesn’t get any better, anyone got a clue if it will clear up by next two week? Ooh Mr. Sun, where art thou?

I strained my foot

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

I couldn’t go to the gym the past week because I was busy with Hassan. I went yesterday. I caught up with the stretching class, it was good. I liked it. A lot of stretching involved but no sweating, aham shay. I would attend this class again and again, it was fun. Next I got on the treadmill, walked for 15-20 min. Left the gym to pick up my dress (I’m invited to a wedding party, I wish I took some Arabic dance classes), tried it on and it was too long so they took it for another alteration. Today I have to go there again. Tomorrow’s the wedding, I barely have time. After that I had to go to the co-op, looked desperately for cucumbers, there was nothing left but a couple of weird looking cucumbers. The guy told me, you’re late! It was only 10pm! Anyways finished from there and went back home. As soon as I finished eating dinner I noticed my right foot hurt me and then I could scarcely walk on it. I think I strained, it’s my damn trainers! I massaged it with a muscle reliever, thought the pain will go away by tomorrow. It didn’t. I painfully walked on it to work

A new mattress

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

We’re sleeping like Kings & Queens tonight, at least I hope so. We got ourselves a new mattress. We went for the Aireloom mattress, medium to hard latex with springs. Wish us a peaceful night’s sleep
