My Facebook friends

When I first heard about Facebook, it was early 2007. And I became a member just by curiosity, then after few weeks I decided to make a group called " I like to be a Mom but I'm so tired" and at the beginning it was so successful and I met wonderful moms. Then one of the mothers introduced me to a group  called " for married couples only" this group was made to talk about all problems facing married people together and understanding each others point of view, and this was the beginning of a new kind of life and friendship for me. I met there a group of women with whom I made a very strong bond of friendship which developed through time. We decided to go further on our friendship so we created a private group just for us we were 13 women, all type of women, different ages, personalities, background...etc.  Through years the group became smaller and smaller so we decided again to just chat on threads, we are 7 now:), but 7 of most wonderful ladies I ever met. We chat about everything, our daily routine, art, movies, our kids, our husbands, politics, cooking, and problems. We stood by each others through many difficult times in our lives, we listen, talk, brainstorm  sll together till we find a solution and consolidate each others, it's like a group therapy. And it is really effective. Although if you knew each one of us separately you'll find it so difficult to understand how we are all friends together? But this diversity is what making our friendship stronger. Because each one has her point of strength and weakness, so we complete each other, to a better  person.
I cherish their friendship so much,they've been with me through hard times, never failed me,never let me down. Sometimes I think that God sent us to each others to go through the tough times we all faced and not to let one of us fall. Their friendship is the really mining of support and love, it's a selflessness relationship, no one needs something from the other, no one have previous knowledge of the other, no one have common friend with the other, it's was God and our honesty that brought and  maintained us together.
God bless them and their families, and God bless our true friendship. May we be friends forever. Love you.

The supermarket

Going to the supermarket became an impossible to me. I only have two options, either I call the super market or tell my husband to go. I call the supermarket when I need many things cause my husband doesn't like to go around the alleys  looking for the items I want. I only ask him when I need bread or cheese :). When I ask my dear Husband to buy 3/4 packs of bread and a pack of cheese, things that will only cost £ 20 max, he comes back with 5/6 bags minimum full of all kinds of juices, biscuits, chocolates, ...etc all unnecessary items. And then complains that he paid  more than £ 200 for those things!!!! And when I buy a bar of chocolate he makes a big scene! First I thought that only my husband acting like that, then I discovered that all men are like babies in supermarkets, they are all attracted by chocolates and biscuits and all the offers there even if they don't need these stuffs. I used to be angry but realizing that this is in their genes made me more peaceful and now I  learned to get the things out of the bags calmly without any questions, saying thank you for the bread and cheese with a big Smile on my face :).
