Off to The Races!!!
Bismillah,
Well, I tried not to do it. I said I wouldn’t. I was content with just being a vouyuer if you will (is that how you spell it?). But the idea pulled and tugged at me until I gave in. Here I am. Standing at the gates (wondering how and why I am here). I am officially BLOGGING!!! Woo Hoo…. So now what?
A little about me I guess. I am a mother of 6, married (been meaning to get that “I married a lug nut” t-shirt made) and muslim, not in that order. My life is really not that interesting (which is probably why I’m blogging). But we have our moments.
I am (excuse me while I puke) american. I converted to islam when I was 21. Definetely the best choice I ever made. I have traveled to many different places and still not reached the place I’d like to be. I have a teenaged daughter, 4 sons and a little princess who thinks she’s 35. All names will be changed in this blog to protect the innocent, prevent lawsuits and basically not embarrass my husband who would probably kill me if anyone knew who we really are.
Stay tuned, maybe someone out there will benefit from my meager efforts…

Salaam Alaykum my dear sister i have been reading your blog through out the day. Alhamdulillah you have made me laugh, cry and also you helped me realize some very important albeit very person things.
“He who relieves a hardship of this Dunya (this earthly life)
for a believer, Allah will relieve a hardship of the Day of
Resurrection for him…. Sahih Bukhari. Jazakillahu Khayr maybe one day I can return the favor Beithnillahu ta’ala

As salamu alaikum.
I began as a lurker of blogs myself and know have a screen name to comment lol. Back before I was married & had a television I was on Oprah everyone has a story to tell if you give them the opportunity to speak. I look forward to getting “caught up”.
