Celebrate the Small Things: 6/21

 

 Happy happy June! 

I have stuuuuffff to celebrate!

1) A friend brought me suede sandals from Switzerland for my birthday (unavailable in Egypt), and they're like walking on clouds!  Ahhhh....

2) A small but annoying snafu of governmental red-tape worked itself out after 2 months.

3) A big snafu of 2-year-old red-tape has finally been fixed and some money is heading my way!

4) I started working on an outline for a new WIP yesterday, and it doesn't suck!

5) I'm still happy about my book contract and my agent!

All is right with the world!

(Ya better take a picture 'cause 

this doesn't happen to me often.)

This post is part of VikLit's blog hop, Celebrate the Small Things. To be part of this blog hop, all you have to do is follow the link and put your name on the Mr.Linky list, and then be sure to post every Friday about something you're grateful  for that week.  It can be about writing or family or school or general life.  This is the funnest and easiest blog hop ever!

Egyptian Facts and Info

I've added three pages of Egyptian info to this blog: Egyptian Wildlife, Egyptian Gods, and Egypt-Clip Art. I'm trying to add sections daily so that people who are interested in aspects of my life in Egypt can find some reference materials and pictures. I just added a section on cats, since they're everywhere over here, both feral and domesticated, and included this adorable kitten image.

Cute little guy, although he looks a bit surprised at being photographed. I've had two cats while in Egypt. Both were "Sharaz," a long-haired breed found here. One was black, and the other white with a blue eye and a green eye. Her name was "Sucre" which means sugar in Arabic. I miss them both.

Check back soon for more information, and have a great day!
