Cookies, Friends, Valentine’s Day, Work and Internet!!

I guess it is no secret to everyone that I am too busy to blog and keep up with other blogs these days. I have been too darn busy ever since I started this new job, not that I am complaining because I like what I do, but I truly and utterly miss the blogosphere, and that’s why I keep coming back every now and then and I hope I will always find you there waiting for me … so please don’t give up on me just yet; there is still hope!!

Last week was a killer, with the conference and all those guests, for three days I came home around midnight and then had to be at work the next day at 8 in the morning; by the end of the week I was a wreck, but that did not stop me from sharing a lovely cookie party with my friends at Mommabeans house. That was one warm evening where we shared lots of fun, food and laughter.

The highlight of that evening was meeting teta bean, Madam Laila!
Such a warm nice lady who was extremely welcoming of all of us and said that she was a regular reader of our blogs; I had to take a picture to memorize this moment for years to come … thank you so much Madam for your kindness and follow-up to our blogs, please keep coming back!

Then we got some creativity out, but I was really too drained to do more than a couple and I learned that Jujubean enjoyed my duck and I say Sa7tein!!

Now, Valentine’s Day is around the corner and everything is already turning red … sometimes I see it as a silly occasion but other times I just feel jealous of all the love and lovers around and feel sad for being alone … eh! It is only one day in the year and it will eventually pass )

Work has been really hectic and I have been running around … looking at the bright side; everything went according to the plan during the conference, my boss is happy and most importantly; the guests had a wonderful time and they all enjoyed their few days in Amman.

Internet is evolving and everyday there is some new technology or software appearing here and there. I wonder how we used to live and do things some years back; how did we manage without all this technology around us. Can we afford to choose not to enslave ourselves to this technology? Can we turn our backs and say we can do without? I wish we could be professional enough to trust people with their own time instead of regulating their days for them; this is the 21st century after all!!

    How sweet of you Khalidah to post this photo. I did not expect that…

    I was also delighted to meet you all at mommybean’s and was glad to see how well you enjoy each other’s company.

    May you all have a wonderful Valentine and those of you who do not have one, hope you will meet your true valentine soon.
