Heartbreak

I know what you might be thinking but no it's not me and my husband. My granddaughter is once again worried and upset that I am leaving to go home again. She started crying this afternoon and I still have 1.5 days before I leave. She has a special place in my heart as does her brother. She wants me... Sign in to see full entry.

Trip to the middle east part 16

Today we are exhausted from running around all this week. We just relax until the afternoon. I pack the suitcase that I am leaving here in Egypt. He packs his suitcase. He takes both of them back to his family flat while I watch tv. I made the mistake of taking my allergy medicine around 8pm and... Sign in to see full entry.

Trip to the middle east part 16

Today is the big day! We are up early and ready to go. We ask if there is a post office nearby where we are staying. It's too far away. We catch a cab. He is not sure exactly where the building is so he asks for directions. He gets lost and turned around. Finally someone tells him the right way to... Sign in to see full entry.

The Ambassador

I read someone's blog and it reminds me of a landmark concert hall we had here in St. Louis. It was the Ambassador. The acoustics were fantastic. The seats were comfortable and well spaced. It didn't hold as many people as Kiel Auditorium or The Checkerdome but then again those venues had horrible... Sign in to see full entry.

Trip to the middle east part 15

I hear my number announced. I go in to talk with the guy at the appropriate glassed window. Not feeling the love from my country on this one. Anybody in the area waiting for someone can hear the conversation. I tell him I need a notarized statement for my marital status and religion. He gives me a... Sign in to see full entry.

Free Tickets to the Ballet

The performance is called Precedence. We arrive early. We find our seats. Wow! The military has the front row. The kids of course... Sign in to see full entry.
