yummy hot chocolate. meeting the blogger gals...school vacation vent

Damn it people you are sick..so I am changing the hot chocolate picture..:p

Phew hubby is gone to his mom's house so my precious laptop is free!

So like Kinzi said last night we went to the Galler for a ladies night out....It was great getting together with Kinzi, Mamabean, and Salam....and of course I finally got to try the yummy hot chocolate everyone has been raving about. Yes it was yummy! But i had a little bit in my cup when the guy took the cup away! I wanted that last sip! Even if it was cold!

It was a nice break away from the kids...who are on top of me as type ...

Speaking of kids I am so looking forward to them going back to school! Ziad has been off for two weeks now!! Please someone shoot me! Who the heck gives kids 5 weeks off???!!!!! Bilal's vacation just started today....I have been looking for a program to send them to, you something for few hours a day, but the only thing I found is a two week thing that teacher English, no problem they will be out of the house and get to spend time with other kids, but it costs over 260 JD for two weeks! It is a bit too much! *crying*

Well the sucky thing is our kids will not be going back to school in Amman, since we leave on Feb 01! It will take a couple of weeks for us to be back to our house and the kids registered in schools in Milton not Saskatoon!

Let me a take a minute to vent! Hubby wants us to move back to Saskatoon! I do not want to! No offence to Saskatooners, but it is soooo freaking boring! I want to be back in my beautiful house and not in that crummy apartment in Saskatoon!

some blah blah , and blogger meeting

Five days down ....25 more to go...or maybe 24??

Now that I am used to fasting it is actually ok and maybe just maybe I will be able to lose some weight...I am not asking for much just five pounds to start me off and after Ramadan I will join a gym inshallah and lose those annoying 10lb once and for all...yes I know I have been talking about those 10lb since I started blogging...yes I have not lost them...stop shaking your head...I lost my will power , it is those stupid chocolate and mansafs and the no gym thing..Although I did go for a walk in the morning once since I came to Amman! But then Ramadan came! I can stop blaming Tim Horton’s on my lack of weight loss..Mmmm speaking of Timmy’s I can defiantly use a nice medium double double and a nice whole-wheat bagel with cream cheese! Ok ok...stop thinking of food; it is only 7:30 am...bas 3an jad I can definitely use a cup of coffee just about now!

The reason I came to blog this morning so I can tell you guys about meeting some bloggers last night. It is always fun to meet bloggers! This is another reason I like it here! There are few other people I would love to meet here.

So last night sweet Kinzi picked me up after the kids went to sleep...ok my curious Zozo got up to see who rang the bell. We sat and chit chatted until he fell asleep! May I say again how much I hate fire works!

We went to Salam’s house, which is gorgeous btw and looks like a picture in a magazine...good job Salam! We found mama bean already there, it is always nice to see mama bean she is a sweetie! A bit later Hayat came; she is super cute and funny! We talked, ate yummy cheesecake and chocolate cake...and had American coffee, which I have been missing! Note to self...buy a coffee maker...Thank you Salam, everything was delicious and it was fun meeting you all...

It was a fun night! I like blogger meetings! When we were leaving Kinzi, mama bean and I went into the elevator. We started complaining about how slow the elevator is! Five minutes (ok maybe less) later we realized that we forgot to press the button to go down...OOPS!

Mr. El3atal was waiting for mama bean downstairs so I got to put a face to the blog! He looks exactly like the picture on his blog...he did not know me since he does not read my blog, but I always read his so it was nice for me to put a face to the blog writer.
