Paleo Cake = YUMMY!
This weekend was a friend’s birthday party in Al Ain. I wanted to do something nice other than just show up and crash at her house. So, I offered to bake a birthday cake as it has been a while since I have done some baking. Since she is also doing a Paleo way of…

Wha…What?! Up at 5:50AM on the Weekend?!
Yep, so like I said, once I do something a couple of times, my body figures out the habit expectation. This morning, I awoke at 5:48am and without hesitation I was out of bed and eager to get my writing on. That’s not to say I won’t be back in bed soon, but it is…

Habits Forming!
Yes, I am celebrating after three straight days of waking up early to write! The writing production itself is not quite happening yet, but I have successfully submitted a number of proposals for possible writing jobs in hopes of making some mulah in writing!

Blah….
My head got distracted doing online shopping even though I have no intention of buying anything. I had plans to do some work for school and then write, but I feel the TV drawing me in. I may just go get a cup of ice cream and call it a night. 😛

Am I Anxious or Just Tired?
I am thinking I am just tired more than anything else from the past week, but it also feels a bit as if I am kind of wound up, which is the anxious part. I am feeling this need to go somewhere or to just release some tension. Maybe something simple like a massage would…

Time Hijacked!
The last week has been completely consumed by a surprise invitation to continue the process to become a qualified Apple Professional Developer. So, back in February I went to a two-day training session for this, but at the time it was not exactly clear what we were training for. I cannot even recall how I…

Changing Habits is Hard to Do…
Man, I am so tired right now, but it is my own fault. I decided that I need to follow the advice of many a great writer by trying to have a regular time in the day to write. Since the mornings are generally my best times, I decided to get up at 5am every…

Second Real Visitor!
So, I’ve lived in the UAE for nearly 5 years now and have only had visitors in the first six months I moved here, who were my mom and aunt. Despite offering to pay for plane tickets to a few people, no one else has ever made the time or effort to come see me……
