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.

To work or not to work...that is the question! And Yellowbar Angel


Today's snap is of a yellowbar angel fish. This photo doesn't do it's colors justice. The bar is normally a vivid yellow, but my camera just can't capture it.

Well, I've been offered a full-time slot doing 'support' work that follows one of my life's career paths. The pay is horrid, but the work would be painfully rewarding. How much stress would it add to the family life? How much stress would it add to my life? Is this the direction I am supposed to be going in? I don't know.

I actually had several people today who knew about the position approach me (they hadn't spoken with each other) and tell me, "Hey, there's a job you'd be just perfect for!" I mean, wow. What a total compliment is that? When a job, be it with horrid pay, is handed to you on a silver platter, do you go for it? Hmmmmm....

That bit aside, the weather here is currently 90F, windy, with widespread dust. Yuck. It looks like a raging thunderstorm is brewing, but it's massive amounts of dust. At least the flat feels cozy.

Well, Munchkin #1 needs this computer for his homework (his doesn't have the programs he needs), and I need to head for the kitchen to cook dinner. Tonight's menu: mushroom kebabs, beef kebab, and 3 varieties of chicken kebabs, hummus, whole grain wurzel bread, fresh veg, and fresh fruit. Thank goodness for comfort food!

Peace.
