A blog about what daily life was really like in the Middle East and the daily ramblings of an ex-pat mum. That's how I started the blog. We are now home, so I'm just going to continue with life here. I am a deeply committed Christian. I love to teach about and share my faith so you'll see some of that on the blog as well. Got a comment? Please feel to comment at the end of a post. May our Creator's peace be upon you.

Green turtle at Khor Fakkan

What a week! At least we got in a good weekend holiday. I'm 'back to the grindstone' full-time for the next couple of months. It's good to flex the mental muscle again. I just hope I'm doing some good in the process!

Things are going to remain busy. We are having a big bash for the youngest munchkin this weekend, the husband and I have been invited to a party for Diwali next week, and we're showing the husband's parents around this part of the world. Busy, busy, busy.

I'm really excited about the Diwali party. Part of Diwali is getting and wearing new clothes. My friend who's giving the party, met me a local fabric/dress place this evening. Two hours later, I've bought a gorgeous silk set, tried on and picked a 'pattern', and it's being made. I'm SO excited about owning and getting to wear a fancy Indian style outfit. Women from India sure know how to dress! Gorgeous! I have my outfit from the wedding we attended in Pune, India two years ago, but it was very non-traditional. The one I'm having made is a traditional pattern but very modern looking silk fabric. Here's a link on Diwali to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diwali

Peace.
