It's been a while but this is what's going on today!!!!!

Well it has been a while since I have posted anything to the blog.  The last few months have been hectic.  I enjoyed my time home and have made it back to the Kingdom!!!!!  I apologize for not getting to viisit with everyone while I was home but the days start running together and just so many personal issues to handle as well as the SAINTS and Mardi Gras.  As much as I wanted to be in Saudi for the Saudi Gras celebration it didn't work out but I was there as a blowup doll!!!!  There are lots of pictures on face book and I will try forwarding some to the blog very soon.  I definitely have jet lag but trying not to give in and take a nap today.

 

The return trip wasn't bad at all just a little eventful.  I had lots of treasures packed and did organize my liquids so of course Mike was stressed with me disorganized self.  When we got to London I had to juggle the liquids into a ziplock baggy and then the best was our final airport destination one of my bags came out tagged with stickers and a tie wrap.  Well we had to go through customs inspection.  They asked if we had radios packed and Mike of course was asking me if I had any radios to which I was like NO... I only have my IPod in my carry on.  Mam are you sure there are no radios.... to which again I said no we don't have any radios.  So my suitcase was opened and inspected to find 3 sets of CARS walkie talkies.  I didn't know that was considered contraban.  Whatever, it was a little humor I told Mike because even the man laughed.  So we got out the airport and sat traffic for no apparent reason on the causeway from Bahrain to Saudi.

 

Then we get to our villa and it was decorated very nicely by my wonderful friends, inside and out, plus lots of goodies.  So we started turning on a/c to which our downstairs unit was out, tried logging on to internet to which it was disconnected because renewal was last week and our trip home was delayed, then my Saudi cell phone out of service because if you don't use for so long they disconnect and one more thing our refrigerator/freezer was out.   I have 3 ice chest of food and a few grocery bags of food in my friends deep freezer since 6:00am this morning.  So it has been eventful the last several hours.  As soon as everything is somewhat normal I will post some pictures. 

 

I did have a very nice lunch with the girls today and saw my little friends too.  So I am getting into the swing of things.  Be in touch soon.

 

XOXOXOXO
