I’m becoming a bit inconsistent with my blogging lately I know…lots of things have been happening….unfortunately not the ones I wanted to happen, but thats qadr..and you can’t argue with it….
Sickness is making it’s way through the house again with the strange virus we had a few months back…one of the few pitfalls of having a large family is the fact that once illness hits it just keeps going round and round and round….and it begins to seem like it’s never going to shift…
Fortunately while sickness dwells within us, the builder have decided to grace us with their long awaited presence and have removed all but the toilet from the bathroom (including the toilet cistern!!) and they apparently wont be back in place till Friday! But hey! I have the eco loo I wanted and it’ll definately cut down water consumption for the week masha’allah…
what else??? hijrah..we dont talk about!!
cars!! we dont talk about!!!!
Mechanics..we have evil thoughts about……
the strange thing is..all this living out of boxes and cases is doing strange things to me…it’s making me crave domesticity…..I mean I’m dreaming decorating and new furniture…..and having a proper…..structure!!!!
it’s all very scarey….not sure I like it!!!!
that came to mind this morning….
*the fact that I’m feeling stifled by “stuff”…all I want to do is grab enough to keep me going and run away..I’m hugely irritated by the fact that “stuff” belonging to us has become so important that it warrents it’s own trip overseas to get settled before I can….this is WRONG!!!!
*that I think I’m slowing down internally…I seem to be folding in on myself and sinking in to my own thoughts…I’ve become very quiet..this is not like me….I think I may be depressed…or perhaps just a bit miffed by the fact that I’m STILL stuck somewhere I don’t want to be…
*I think I want to try and write again..and spend some time taking pictures that will make my heart sing….
We’re on a health kick…those of us that can be bothered that is….
so what better way to start the day than a fruit smoothie…
here’s what went in the blender…
4 bananas
2 cups of mixed berries
a BIG tub of live brimming with friendly bac..bio yogurt
and a generous swipe of honey….
several cups of that and a probio capsule (thats an extra 4 billion friendly bacs!!) and I feel….happy….
not entirely well…..but happy
I’ve got a friendly bac party going on in my gut!!!!!
