New Year’s Eve 2016
At last the year is coming to a close. It has been an interesting one to say the least. I have been enjoying some of the Facebook videos about how 2016 has really been a dark year for the world and many people. It is nice to know that it was not just us who…

Domestication
In general it is no secret that I am not a fan of cooking. When I was about 12 I determined that I would find a man who would cook for me. Post college I found friends who cooked for me and managed to convince most that I could not cook at all. When I…

Dark to Light
Getting myself out of the house and remembering where I live is my first step to getting myself away from the threat of the dark state that wants to settle back in to my psyche disturbing my way of life. Yesterday morning or maybe during the day I read this article on Facebook about the…

Work?!
The past two days have been full with Apple Training. Yesterday was in Ras Al Khaimah. Actually, thanks to the training, we were able to celebrate our anniversary with a hotel stay and congratulatory cake. 😀 The training went well and despite the venue being in RAK, which is not as developed or well known…

It has been a year already since we went to sign the papers and say “I do”! ❤️ Time has flown by and even though it has been a year full of change and challenges, I can say that we are as much in love as we ever have been. 😍😍 This was my…
