in.\u00a0 One day seems much like another.\u00a0 We got about five or six inches over the foot-and-a-half from the previous storm.\u00a0 Still waiting for the snowplow to make the rounds.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\"> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\">It\u2019s been not too bad.\u00a0 Hubby is home, keeping busy with some stuff.\u00a0 I am organizing our \u2013 yuk \u2013 tax paperwork.\u00a0 The kids are having space battles.\u00a0 Finally everyone pooped out.\u00a0 I\u2019m off to bed shortly.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\">I was supposed to start writing for Examiner.com, but all my wonderful ideas are on the shelf til I can get out of my neighborhood and visit some folks.\u00a0 Charity groups, Muslim stores, chaplains\u2026 all on my list and all inaccessible.\u00a0 Yeah, I could do it all over the phone, but I need pictures as well, so I have to just try to be patient.\u00a0 Meanwhile, I sit here with fourteen different story ideas bouncing around in my head.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\"> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\">Didn\u2019t enter Second Life at all today.\u00a0 I try not to be on the computer too much when my husband is home.\u00a0 It strikes me as kinda dismissive to say \u201cNice to have you here honey, will you excuse me for the next four hours?\u201d\u00a0 I didn\u2019t do too much work today.\u00a0 Haven\u2019t been sleeping well so I vegged out in between tours of duty in the kitchen feeding the ever-hungry brood.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\">I may schedule a radio show for tomorrow, depends on how I feel in the AM.\u00a0 I for sure need to write, go to Islamicanswers and see some questions.\u00a0 SubhanAllah, people are so much in need of help.\u00a0 I think why I feel the radio show is important is that I\u2019m praying I can catch some people BEFORE they screw their lives up too badly.\u00a0 InshAllah of those who listen, some will heed my advice.\u00a0 Ya Rabb!<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\"> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\">Time to go pray ishaa\u2019, ask Allah to help those who are in need, thank Allah for the safe delivery of a friend\u2019s baby, and then go to bed.\u00a0 I think I\u2019ll be asleep about five minutes after my head hits the pillow, inshAllah.\u00a0 Would like to think I\u2019ll stay awake after fajr but that rarely happens, especially since there is no school tomorrow so I don\u2019t have to set the second alarm.\u00a0 Today was nice because I let the others wake up before me and just lay in the bed an extra twenty minutes.\u00a0 That probably won\u2019t happen two days in a row.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\"><span
