BELIEVE IT OR NOT
The person who wrote the famous song, "Keep the Home Fires Burning" burnt to death when their home caught fire.
In 1970, television newswoman Chris Hubbock announced, "In keeping with Channel 40's policy of always bringing you the latest in gore and guts in living color, you're about to see another first - an attempted suicide". Then she pulled out a gun and fatally shot herself in the head.
Eric II, King of Denmark, died in 1104. He was known as Eric the Memorable. No one remembers why.
Napoleon killed over a thousand people with a cough. In 1799 he was deciding whether to release 1,200 Turkish prisoners of war when he coughed and said, "Ma sacre toux!" (my darned cough) which sounded to officers like "Massacrez tout!" (Kill them all!). So they did.
Mummies were so plentiful when first discovered that they were ground up and sold as fertilizer and put into medicines
Residents of death row in Texas are forbidden to smoke. Guess they're afraid they'd get cancer and die. Perhaps some can enlighten me as to why?

DO we REALLY need MAIDS?
The reason for me needing one is just to follow up...cleaning, help in cooking, things like that. BUT I will never leave my twins left alone with her. NO WAY. For some people they do, that's is their business. I am NOT against them in anyway shape or form only for the children's sake.
Maids in Saudi Arabia are House - guests, according to some links that I have been reading lately.
It's really sad to see these 'lazy' people not getting up to get things really just piss me off. I have many stories relating to those 'lazy' people.
About a week ago, during my daughter's party, the family came. ALL of them. Of course, they have maids, but nobody came with them. So, my maid HAD to do everything, including me, follow my twins, give tea, and all that great stuff.
Its really frustrating if you ask me.
Our mom's did everything, what ? SOME mom now needs someone to get a glass a water when its actual there by her?
Maids are needed for help if the MOM has small children, yes, I understand.
I dont believe for the old people, what about their relatives, what? they cant take care of him or her?
Moms with teenage daughters doesnt need maids. So, I am in the middle I think.
So, do we really need maids? In my WHOLE opinion? No...maybe some of you disagree or agree that's up to you.

Those 2 Riyal Stores, 5 Riyals, 10 Riyals........
After a few months, the 2 riyal days were gone. lol
But I still look and see what they have...
Some of the material for clothes are not that great here, you have to break an arm and leg just to buy.
The material back home is good.....

MEETING THE FAMILY
The very first day was after I landed in Manama, Bahrain. "WOW, I thought...at the time, they are welcoming me....
I spend 3 months in Bahrain. I was waiting for the visa to enter Saudi Arabia. BUT.......I had to GO back home. I was like? WHAT? why? it was a hard decision to do. Leaving my husband for a month or so.
Its funny when you left, they missed you but when you came back, they wanted you to leave again. That's what happened to me when I went back in 1999. I missed my husband when I went back. I did it again in 2003, the last time I went home to see my mom and brother.....that's
As years went by, lesser and lesser, seeing the "family" They were HAPPY to see me but now they can care less about us, meaning ME, because I am a outsider, and they dont want that. So, I gave my husband a choice, its either, I leave taking my daughter at the time, OR we divorced. It was getting to the point, they were talking bad about ME at the time. and I know they are still, so they
like it or not, I am here to stay....lol
The ONLY person who really accepted me was his father. Sadly, he past away.

I know I have more I want to add, but FEEL free to add your experiences and such. LETS have a laugh, or cry even, believe me I have been there!

Welcome to the LAND of SAND
We gather what we can to take with us on the plane. My mother was with us, my brother drove us. "So, this is it sis?" I said, "what are you talking about?" ..."You know." I couldnt say another word because he pinched a nerve, I cried.
The plane ride was somewhat, unique because it was the Total Eclipse on a Friday and 13. hmmm, I was kinda afraid, of turbulence and crap, but we made it through after about 24 hours I think...lol, many hours forward....so dont blame me for jet legged!.
The food was horrible, the people were smoking...?wait, isnt there NO SMOKING signs on the plane?
RUSH, RUSH, RUSH.....running to get off the plane and waiting for hours to get on the next....That was the most workout I received...lol
We stopped over in a Middle Eastern country. Amman, Jordan. We stayed there for 8 hours? Now, what to do for 8 hours? Can't sleep, too busy watching people trying to steal your suitcases. Not, hungry, had the terrible food on the plane. But all in all, we survived...lol. So, we managed to get on the plane, heading for Manama, Bahrain. It was ok, I slept through, until we landed.
Then the 'fun' begins:
