1. Dishwasher is here!
2. We have been doing some painting around the house. Will post pics soon. (By the way, is there an easy way to get pics from digital camera to computer to blog without having to fiddle with sizes and formats and other computer rubbish. I have no computer skilz.)
3. The garden. Oh the garden. We really need to get stuck into it because it’s looking a bit on the gross disgusting side. The weather has been a bit awful past three days (yes yes, the summer we NEEDED to have - who needs summer? I ask you - who needs to swelter in 40 degree heat with nary a movement in the air and stifling heady humidity? WHO? HUH? HUH?).
4. What is it with tradespeople/gardening people. Do they not want our business?? Hello. We are here. We need you to fix things and take trees out of the yard and fix holes in walls and roof tiles and maybe we might need new blinds and floorboards (yes, the floorboards are only a fantasy right now but one day inshaAllah. One day.) So, how about CALLING US BACK SO WE CAN ORGANISE QUOTES? Surely you would like some money? And we are MADE of money. Call us.

I upload picks to flickr and then just post them to blog, but that way you can only use one image per post. Can you come and renovate my house when you have done yours?!!
summer. yeah, we don’t need no summer here in the desert either.

Saha, it’s all too hard. Husband says that the camera only makes the pictures in sizes too big and then he has to resize so it fits nicely in the blog page. I don’t know. Too much techno mumbo jumbo.
Mona, it’s crazy, isn’t it? You’re back from your holiday? How is it/was it
Umarah, we’ve used it a couple of times and the dishes come out really clean! Who would have thought?
Congrats on getting the dishwasher.
it wasn’t so bad. i loved spending time with the diva daughter, who refused to take to anyone. hee hee.

ahhhhhhhh you have a dishwasher! am madly jealous (in a mashaAllah, mashaAllah, teeth-gritting, eye-narrowing kinda way). Can I come and live with you now, please? For realz?? Okay, you guessed it- I just want to live with your dishwasher.
congrats on all the home-reno! how’s the water feature coming along? or, OMG, is the dishwasher the water feature?! that would all be very jamie-durie-bringing-the-outdoors-indoors-avant-garde. nice.
