Pina Colada,

I wish that I was at the beach drinking Pina colada. Well, being a Baha’i we don’t consume alcohol. I love pina colada with no alcohol; and there are certain things in life that they are just made to go together and after you taste it once then you are in trouble because you know exactly how it should be. The combination of that and beach are just what I need. Especially with my present situation; I am sitting between boxes at 2 am in the morning. I know, I know I just finished bragging few blogs ago how well settled we are. I even took out my nice china and had all the pictures on the wall. But we are moving again. The boxes are nothing in comparison to the smell of the mildew in the bed room. I guess a water pipe is leaking in side the wall and slowly the wall in one of the bed room started to bubble and now is nice mildew is combining with the heat, ohm, don’t even try to imagine it is too painful. But I will not dwell on the unpleasant things in life ;). What is so cool is on the other hand I think we are so lucky as the awesome and I mean awesome place became available at the same time we are looking into moving that we will be moving to. It has an amazing few of the beach. And had a patio which we can move the rabbits to. Ohh, I got to tell you about this. You remember the dwarf rabbits that we bought. And the guys we bought them from promised that they are dwarf and they don’t grow. Well, guess what? I think they are the largest rabbits I have seen in my life and they don’t seem to stop growing. Poor things, they can hardily fit in the cage we have for them. Yasmeen and Nadia are good in feeding them (maybe too good) and talking them for a walk and they are really the cutest and codleast pits that I have seen.

More of on the bright side of life. The kids are done with their exams and they are so happy. Today me and another mother took about 10 kids to watch pirate of the Caribbean. It was funny and they had great time. This was the first move we watched on the big screen. They really enjoyed it.

My in-law will be starting their pilgrimage tomorrow it has been so amazing having them at this time. I was feeling bad about not doing a lot of fun things with exams and the move and my work but they been a great help and I am very thankful that they are visiting.

Well, my eyes are closing by themselves and I don’t have a clue anymore what I am writing which could be dangerous; kind of like talking in your sleep and you don’t remember in the morning what you have said. So, I better go get some sleep.

Have a wonderful day.

Midnight Update

It is midnight and I was working again. I guess that is a good sign, that I actually use work to relax, that means I really like what I am doing. I am still working part time and spending the evening studying with the kids or that is the main thing we do.

We are in our final exam week two more weeks and the girls will finish with this school year. I can’t believe that we are actually going to make it. I know don’t count your chicken before they hatch or something like that, so I will wait to write about it in two weeks.

This week Grandma Suzi and Grandpa Bart are visiting. They are still getting adjusted to the new time. With the exam week it is hard but we are managing to keep a balance between studying and enjoying some family time. Yesterday we went to Bahji since the kids were off I had the chance to take them and spend few hours there. I will update you with few pictures and promises a good email with better English (notice I did not say good English just better) that I will write before midnight after the kids finish their exams. Goodnight for now..
