I Moved!!

Salam Sisters, I moved so i just got my Internet back on today. I am excited we got a bigger and better apartment (townhouse) and i will have a washer and dryer put in soon, no more going to the laundry (YAY). I got brand new carpet and Its just nice and relaxing!! The other place i lived i felt like i lived in the ghetto..lol!! Always cops and you could here gunshots sometimes and the neighbors were always fighting. It was miserable. Now maybe i can get back to my less stressful life and maybe back to my diet and walking and lose some weight. I had lost around 70# 3 years ago and i gained 25# back so that is depressing. I went to put on some of my summer stuff to wear around the house and it is all tight...uuggg...I felt so bad!! It makes you feel depressed and dissappointed and like a failure when you work so hard to lose weight and then gain some of it back and losing weight is a very hard thing to do!! Keeping it off is just as hard as losing it. I still have a long way to go!! I dont want to be really skinny just healthy and able to shop for cute clothes instead of settling for what fits me. But anyways i have to say that i am happier in my new apartment. So that will be a plus in mine and Aziz's life. So I will post later sisters when i have time. You all have a great day

Anonymous

I know I shouldnt let this anonymous person get to me, but I cannot believe the way people are in this world. One of my pet peaves is ignorant people. Who judge people and talk bad about people they dont even know!!!

I need your Dua's Please

Salam Sisters, Well if you read earlier posts you know i have relatives living with me. well all of them have left but one and he had nowhere to go at all because he has problems with alcohol and he has burnt all his bridges with everyone else. We wanted to give him a chance and try to help him to get his life back on track...so my husband Aziz found him a job as a mechanic with a moroccan guy that is his friend and he has been staying with us and doing really good...UNTIL...TODAY...Aziz sold his car so that he could buy a taxi which means we dropped our insurance on it but it needed some work so before we signed the title over we took it too my cousin at the shop he works at and gave him $100 to fix all the little stuff that it needed....So today i get a phone call from the police and they ask me " do you know so and so" I said "yes hes my cousin" They said "do you own a toyota camry" I said "yes" they said did it have damage to the passenger side and 2 flat tires last time you saw it" I said "no" well i had to go meet the police my cousin is so drunk he cant talk and has wrecked Aziz's car!! so needless to say we had to give the guy back his money so now no taxi and no car to sell and We dont know what is gonna happen for now.

I know Allah works in mysterious ways so i just have to say Hamdullah and know that there is a reason this all happened but Aziz is just beside himself, and I am hurt that because of my family my husband is hurting!! I am up now because i have such a headache and i cant sleep. So please keep us in your dua's and pray that Allah helps us to get everything worked out and that our life can get back on track. That is alot to happen in the 6 months that we have been married and i just feel sick from it.

Business Update

For the last few days me and my cousin have been painting the building and getting it ready..well we finished and now in the morning we are going to get the equipment and bring it up here and get everything set up and ready to go. I am ready to get started but i am nervous because now we have a big payment. But I know I have to trust in Allah (SWT) that everything is going to be ok. I think that we will do good insha allah!! Well its late and I need to sleep so i can get up early...may Allah bless you in all that you do...goodnight sisters.

CousCous Cafe

Salam Sisters, Tonight me and Aziz went to eat at the CousCous Cafe. I ate Chicken Tagine with couscous and water i also had milfay for dessert, yummy!! Aziz had a Kofta Sandwich and fries and a homemade yogurt and a coke. There were alot of our friends there and we had a good time. I have learned since i dont know the language to take things to keep me busy, a book, my computer, a notebook to write in or something because when we go there we are on Moroccan time and we stay there forever. But it makes Aziz happy because it reminds him of home, so i dont mind. Then we came home and Aziz went to work hes working the night shift tonight...uggg!!! I miss him...but we have to pay the bills! Beslama!!
