Ooooo what a fun man you have there, and so talented. Between a brother that supplies stem-cells and a dh that mends, what more could a girl wish for? Except hair that is, har har (more har) he he. Hope to see the new you artwork soon. God bless you tonight and every night.

What are you doing up past midnight, ya sitt? Did you sneak out for a little partying?! Good to see you get over that dreaded block.. Sorry, can't get the video to work. I'll come back. In the meantime, I will imagine Wissam sewing sequins on your nightgown :) Nighty night, sweetheart!

Welll, I'm a little behind the curve so i'm going to try and merge two posts in one:
a - I am so so happy that your buddha is blessing your strepsils, your success phone card, and a Quality Street sweet that has been sitting there from when i was still there!! ma32ool!!! It looks like it has been pushed around during those amazing Fadi & Wiss joint effort tidying up sessions! Tell KHAYYATA to remove all that junk so nothing gets between you and the energy! :)

b - Halloul, zakkarteeni (for all you learn-arabic-quick hopefuls that is, you reminded me) b teta imm adeeb (of our paternal grandma) Allah yerhama (God rest her soul). She used to put her pills in the palm of her hand every morning and tell me shoofi shoofi (look look), indicating that there were way too many there and she felt oh so sweetly sorry for herself :) -- i can almost see rabab smiling there! Fiyon el 3afieh te'ibreeni! (Sante would suffice here i think, lol). Maybe my next post will be a glossary of terms for all our friends across the pond.

c - Mazen, you are spot on with the mantras. do we need to say them over and over or is saying the mantra once enough to make it reverberate throughout the universe? And i love your story about the girl who wrote the book.

One must never forget to offer thanks to God, buddha, or any other energy form of goodness they feel closer to at the time, when they have been lucky enough to have been selected to have their hardship reduced. When pay-back is due, there is no bigger thank you than un-directed pay-back. Yaani you do good in absolute.

Way to go Louli XX

Is there no end to this superman's talents? Shou haida, shou haida! He actually looks like he knows what he's doing. Yay, Wissam - you're the best, 3waynet notwithstanding (yep, we heard that last bit).

Remember me? the procrastinator, slower-than-a-snail worker? sorry - i got felled by a 24hour bug of some sort. My brain was going bzzzt, bzzzt every time I turned my head. I'm still getting new contributions, so no deadline for posting, but anything after today will not be entered for voting. Today being Wednesday the 12th.

Hope your day is better than ever and tomorrow will be even better. Love ya

Oh, and Cyba? thanks for the translation - between you and Hala, you'll be putting me out of business. Come to think of it, I think I won't thank you then, hehe...

What a wonderful family you have, my dear Hala - you guys are pretty amazing one and all.

Habibi Abou'l Wiss! You are the bestist man! I can't wait for those papers to get done! Bidna nikhlas ba'a! And Hala, no dragging your feet when the papers come or I will drag you by the ear all the way here!

Love you both VERY much!
