It's been...one week since...
Well actually it's been a little longer, but what can I do.
This little more than a week has been rough that's for sure. I got the rude awakening on Sunday morning that my time away from Egypt had only amounted to one week and a two days. Nine days...that's it. However it had already felt like a lifetime away from Essam. I really tried to convince myself this whole situation gets easier but it doesn't. And its not like I can throw a fit, or pull some strings and he'll just come here. So I have to be patient...patient...patient...and have faith.
Today I have to finish stuff for our application since I got his forms earlier this week and Kare is gone now. I'm hoping to send it out asap tomorrow after work finishes. Tomorrow I start at 6:30 am. I know I'll be doing stock etc before we open...but isn't 6:30 am a little cruel for a Vicky's employee? Oh well...at least I'll make it to the post office before they close.
Kare came and visited over the last couple days. It was really nice to see her and we had a great time remembering all the crazy times through Syracuse. There were so many moments that I had totally forgotten! Like writing letters and getting them printed in the DO since stupid ORL took our lounge away, the many fire drills, the psycho neighbors...there were so many things I had totally forgotten all about and it was so great remembering them and cracking up. We had some great times!
Last night we saw Ocean's Twelve which was really good. Super clever which is what I love most about those movies. And we also rented Elf since kare insisted that I had to see that movie. Will Farrel in an elf suit and yellow tights was absolutely halarious. It was a good suggestion.
I'm slowly recovering from the sinus infection and stomach bug I've had. However I'm still not one hundred percent which of course is quite annoying to me. I always want to be better by day two of the sickness. Of course again...patience is a good virtue.
I have been really worried about my mom and dad. They've been mega stressed lately and usually that doesn't phase them much. Especially my dad. But he's just been grumpy and angry every night this week and so has my mom. It doesn't make for a pleasant environment and when I try and reason with them and get them to relax or try and help out they just freak out. They are freaking out about everything. I suppose there is not much I can do except pray that things get better for them. But when they get like this they just start ranting about everything like if Essam calls about how expensive the bill is and blah blah blah and just freak out. I seriously just need Essam to get here so we can move to DC insha allah and begin our life together. I hope God gives me a little help so that occurs sooner than later. I've been doing my best to be patient and I've definitely had to go through some challenging times. I'd like to see some benefits from all that work.
