Many things changed yesterday. Little mini-adventures to tell you the truth.
It all started with Shakir getting sick overnight. He threw up. He felt nauseated. His body ached. But, being the incredible wife that I am, I didn’t even notice. Sad, isn’t it? Thankfully, he’s much better today after having popped quite a few pills throughout the day yesterday.
Then, checking the mail, I noticed that I recieved my new (and improved) driver’s License. For those of you have seen my previous license, you know how nasty I looked in it. I looked like a gangster child pulled right out of the heart of Scarlem. But, I’m happy to say, this one turned out to be alright. Granted, my scarf looks like a pile of puke (no seriously) and that the lighting is a little odd but it’s not too shabby.
Next, something else that’s so very special came in the post. The wedding reception invitation samples from Bangladesh! It was so great to see them. They’re absolutely gorgeous. And to think we were going to settle for a bland, western styled, beige one with silver writing. These were so much more breathtaking. I was sold!
After all this excitement, I had to get ready for a job interview I had for 3pm. I got prepped and Shakir fired those ‘tough’ questions at me, left, right and centre. I breathed in. I breathed out. I was a little shaky but I went in there with everythingI had hoping to just get some practice at interviews if nothing else.
I came out with more than a practice interview. Instead, I came out with a job offer. Praise be to God! The timings, the pay, the environment are incredible and although I don’t have anything in writing just yet, I know this is where I want to be this summer. God Willing.
After the interview and the thrill of finally getting a job, Shakir decided to give me a gift. He got my nose pierced. =)
Later that evening, I found out that my Scarborough family got a NEW CAR! Fun. Fun.
So now, after a long day of overly exciting things at home, I’m a little scared. When so many good things come at you all together, it often means that rough times are on the way. I need to be able to deal with whatever is thrown at me now and just remember to Thank You God for all that I recieved so far.
Oh Lord, Grant us patience.
pEACe,
Fuzzy
