DO we REALLY need MAIDS?

Why do we need maids? There are about 1,000,000 maids in Saudi Arabia ALONE.... Now, come on people. What we can't get up and get a glass of water? I hear many stories of maids on how they are treated. It is really sad, horrible, and disgusting.

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.

School is COMING!

In a way, I am so happy that kids are going back to school. These teenagers are something else now, I remember when I was a teenager, going to the mall with my friends hanging out, catching a movie, window shopping and much more. BUT now, times have changed ALOT! what happened people?! lol Dont forget to buy those notebooks, pens, pencils and all of that hoopla. Get ready for that LAST minute shopper. So, teenagers few more weeks or days left and BTC...

Why cant school be all year round? I remember going back in last week in August!

Maybe, I'll be able to post more often? Who knows...lol

Those 2 Riyal Stores, 5 Riyals, 10 Riyals........

When I first came to Saudi Arabia, my husband introduced me to the 'cheap'' store...lol I had a phase almost every single day. They had alot of good stuff there. WOW, we have these houses...and I remember the TITANTIC days....LOL WOW....but I saved alot of money. If I like something I went and I bought it.

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

LONG AWAITED .....LOL HERE IT IS BY 'BITS AND PIECES'...LOL


The very first day was after I landed in Manama, Bahrain. "WOW, I thought...at the time, they are welcoming me.... "thank you, THANK YOU, " they said to me. I'm thinking what the hell for? They handed me a baby to kiss....I was like OKAY...Like I said Bits and Pieces. We all drove off looking for a hotel to stay in. It took forever...lol ANYWAYS, my first day in another country and I was some what scared, happy, excited, depressed. I didnt know what to expect from the 'family'. The next day, we all talked. Well, not me, I just listened and said. "WHAT did they say, say this." It was funny....lol

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.
