It's nice to see more and more women up there in the world. Condoleezza Rice is really something, but for Al-Joharah, who is Muslim from a Muslim country gets up, even if it isn't as high up, it shows the world is changing........click to learn what next.

Getting sick from the rain

Posted on November 20, 2008November 21, 2008 by Mamapumpkin

I chose to tempt fate yesterday. I don't know why I do what I do sometimes. It is a known fact tried and tested many a time, that whenever I get caught in the rain, even if it is the slightest drizzle, I.......click to learn what next.

Asking for favours

Posted on November 19, 2008November 19, 2008 by Mamapumpkin

I called for a family meeting

Posted on November 18, 2008 by Mamapumpkin

Yes, I did, and guess what? Almost everyone was on defense mode. Who's calling this meeting? Who's part of the family? Why are we having a meeting? What have I done wrong? I'd realised exactly then, that I should have reworded it and.......click to learn what next.

Posted on November 18, 2008 by Mamapumpkin
