Quote: Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. {Ralph Waldo Emerson}

Now this is a record breaker. I haven’t been away for this long!
Forgiveness, I know it’s there in your heart. I’ve been extremely busy with home, life, work and health. I will leave you with briefs of what I’ve done in the past few months with pictures from each stage.
September
I had four of my wisdom teeth extracted. It was very painful. I am just glad it’s over. I was swollen for at least two weeks- like I’ve been punched for hours. My cheeks were purple and yellowish. Eeew! But it was worth it.
I had braces before and the wisdom teeth were pushing and totally ruining the six months I spent in braces. Now I am rethinking them. Probably get them done soon. I am not very excited about having metal in my mouth again. I’ll end up doing what Kytheria did- get the invisible braces. I am not sure how they work yet but hoping it will solve my issue.

The beautiful Shangri La Muscat

October
Ramadhan was beautiful. Spent it with family and in the gym working out like crazy. I lost about 15 kilos then- of course with the help of the wisdom teeth extraction cuz I wasn’t able to chew. I was living on soup almost the whole holy month. After work, at about 2:30 pm I’d head for the gym for an hour of aerobics (whilst fasting- mind you). I will be home at about 4 just in time for cooking a meal. I love cooking. I love gourmet food. I can spend hours just making up a menu for a meal. I love shopping for food and spending hours in the kitchen chopping and cutting veggies.
The best part is watching everyone’s reaction when they have a bite or a sip. A feeling of unbelievable fulfillment.
Lammtara, I am very proud of you. I still have all the old 3eyayiz sketches. Um Saloom has gained weight since then. =)

I love it! totally ME
November
I love November. I turned 26 this month on the 18th. Yes people I am quite old- 26 =)
My hubby totally forgot about my birthday because he says it fell on a weekend! LOL
Anyways, he got me a beautiful gift and I am very thankful. I splurged on his expense.
A friend of mine- AM got me a HUGE birthday cake 2 x 1 mitres. Thank you!
Salamii, her hubby Ahmed and her sis Elreem along with their mom took me out for my favourite drink in the whole world- Chai Haleeb (Tea with Milk) and I got the most beautiful Abaya in Pink and my favourite perfume YSL’s Baby Doll. Joy.
Aso, Daloo3ah, Sunshine, Blossom and Perla celebrated it also in a different day with loads of pink gifts, jewelry and beauty vouchers to spas! They know me too well. Thank you guys I love you so much.
Thank you everyone- for your emails and your ecards. I am never excited about getting older- but I don’t mind celebrating for the mere purpose of celebration.
7amOod (my older bro) thank you and your wife for your beautiful gift.
A friend- the card is hilarious. I still haven’t dared open up the gift. It’s so neatly decorated. Don’t want to spoil it.


Yummy and personalized!


December
Hmm.. nothing really to report in December. Was swamped with work- typical everything needs to get done before Xmas cuz everyone is traveling and usually nothing really is completed by then. I realized that I haven’t taken an actual day off. I had my 45 days and I haven’t used any of em. I’ve always been out for sick leave only. So I took a day off and things turned upside down. I slept till 10 and by the time I woke up I already had 42 calls. So much for my day off. I had to head to the office- it just didn’t feel right.
By the end of the month, my lovely mother-in-law and beautiful sister-in-laws took me out for dinners at Emirates Palace spending some intimate times together. It was very warm and lovely just having time out and spending it with people you love.
A belated Eid Mubarak to you all and Happy New Year.
Wishing that all your dreams come true. If you are in pursue of a dream, then I hope you are getting closer and closer by the minute. If you are unhappy then I truly wish you find your happiness and joy. If you are not feeling well, then I hope you get better soon. If you are a bachelor/bachelorette then I hope you find your soulmate. If you are still in school then I wish you graduate with distinction. If you are a career person then all the best- upwards and onwards. If you have issues then I hope this year they are sorted out and all your problems are solved. Moms- Loads of hugs and kisses coming your way.
