Bismillahi Rahmani Rahim<\/p>\n

Salaam Alaikum wa Rahmatullah \/ Hi<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a while since I\u2019ve posted. It\u2019s not like I haven\u2019t been writing\u2026 I post to my FaceBook page, I Tweet on Twitter, and I chat a lot on Second Life. But I\u2019ve been a bit in a daze lately. Sometimes my brain goes on vapor lock and I can\u2019t put my thoughts together in a coherent fashion. In such instances, the brief twitter entry is about as much as I can manage.<\/p>\n

Taking care of the kids, cooking, cleaning \u2013 or avoiding cleaning. Helping hubby with the expanding eBay, giving advice to new Muslims. All that takes mental energy and I\u2019ve been in a down cycle. InshAllah things are getting better now that the baby is a bit more independent, though as I write this she is standing at my knee screaming her little head off. <\/p>\n

Schedule: Nurse baby, put chicken in oven after hacking it into pieces, make rice, tidy up house, find time for Second Life. That\u2019s my afternoon. Also have to throw some laundry in, give kids a bath, and take Abdel Hamid to Qur\u2019an class. Gonna be a busy day<\/p>\n
