Tamp Leave of Absence

I'm not saying good-bye. I am just needing to take a temp leave of absence. (effective starting Tues night) We are in the process of moving and the pc is getting packed.
I have allowed myself to take on way to much and need time to simplify my life. I'm just getting to old for a busy life. Also I need to get more rest and relax time and also work on my marriage. Between business and critters and other things I am on overload. To give you and idea, I have a car and a truck one 2 yrs old and one 1 yr old. Hubby has been out to sea most of the last 2 years. I have a total combined of over 80,000 MILESSSSSSS
Yes you read that right 80,000 and atleast 60,000 of that I did alone for business and family and such.   ::)   80,000 miles in 2 years. I am tired and things are taking a toll on me. I need to take better care of my health and I still have never had that surgery I needed 2 years ago and that is not good.................But this too will pass    ;)

Please keep me in your prayers as you all will be in my prayers, thoughts and heart. I'll return in a month or two, I won't let the 3 months so my membership in jannah will be fine  :)

Jannah.org has been a blessing to me and a wonderful source of learning, growing, socializing with good people and a place of comfort and acceptance and to all I sincerely thank you.  I know I am quite opinionated at times and if I have offended anyone in any way please forgive me.

I will be checking regular email once a week from a public pc as this one will be packed and in storage and   ;)  my mail will be forwarded. (project will be completed  ;)  )
May Allah keep each and everyone of you and your families safe and content and happy. Talk to you all in about 6 to 8 weeks.
(((((((((hugs to all the sisters)))))))))))))
Bro's take care.

Leave granted.

But next time you better be careful with those spellings.

Otherwise it'll be rejected.

No mercy!

Nomi,  is your new name a take off of the famous cartoon skunk?  And if it is a serious muslim symbol forgive my ignorance.  Hey,  take care Caraj and hope to talk to you soon.
Maybe I should announce my departure too!  Of course i would feel bad if no one replied or even looked at my post.  Or there was some huge massive celebration.   So now that i think about it i am stuck here.

the other day as i was drunk on tiredness and too much [] me and 7 started talking about how the message board was JUST like Sesame Street... I was like I should be Big Bird!!! and hmm let's see

mike - resident oscar the grouch... cynical yet lovable
cara - is maria... always trying to be optimistic and explain things to 'the kids' ;)
kathy - mr. hooper for sure.. the wise one
nomi  & brohanif - ernie and bert obviously!! and NO they're not
himy - is definitely the count... he comes in says says something penetrating then laughs his way out
se7en - i think she'd do great as grover, sincere yet a little... not all there :P
bhaloo - kermit who else!! reporting live from the latest controversial thread...
abuhamza - snuffleupagus -- always TRIES to be serious but can anyone take him seriously? ;)
deenb4dunya - elmooooooooooooooooooooo
maliha - miss muffet! and remember miss muffet's spider.. that would be mr. bean!!
eleanor - prarie dawn or maybe dawn should be?
jaihoon - luis.. the artistic type u know
barr - she has to be linda
sofia - zoe....always in the learning position but smarter than everyone else
siddiqui - cookie monster (no pun intended)
brkhalid -  barkley so nice ALL the time... does anything ever bother him
kashif - gordon!!

we should even sing the song together... 'can you tell me... can you tell me how to get to .. madina...www.jannah.org/board....' cept it doesn't sound as rhymey

i respect u guys too much to continue...i have more matches for more people but i should stop now before _everyone_ leaves  :)

Hey Jannah          l :) :)k
My thread got over the 2 post average    :P
You have me laughing so hard Jannah reading the above.
And I am still waiting for my butler in the mail     :P
Can you please overnight him UPS
I've been sick with the flu all week, my house is a mess    ::)

Officer Nomi thanks for approving my leave.
Ohhhhhh and I lied, the above millage was wrong the total combined
of both truck and car is 92,000   and most I did alone which just goes to prove not only can woman cook, but they can drive to  :P   :P   :P
(even if we can't spell)

I'm going to miss you all the next few weeks, Jannah.org
After business, caring for the critters and much more this
is the one place I can come to for sisterly joking and understanding, when hungry for intellectual and spiritual conversation and the occational good fight   ;D  

There are so many changes coming up in my life and I have much to share at a later date.

Kathy, if I could give you a big sisterly hug and the most sincere thank you, these next few weeks are going to be rough, but I'll repeat over and over again ......this too will pass .......and then I'll go like >>>>>     ::)  and think of you.   ;)

I'm going to miss you all and look soooooo forward to coming back to a place I consider (in some form) my home. After all it is our city isn't it    ;)

Was this just ironic or did you plan this one: www.pbskids.org/sesame/coloring/7.html  
(that’s grover by the way)

Well… here’s one for Big Bird too: www.pbskids.org/sesame/coloring/b.html
(there are butterflies on the homepage ;) )  

Azizah... I do hope your time away proves beneficial & rejuvenating... make lots & lots of supplication /submission /prayer... it helps so much... Insha' Allah. I agree about sister Kathy's words of wisdom (little does she know the impact)... Indeed, "this too shall pass"... Insha' Allah.

Thank-you so much for your assistance, support, & comforting words... But I know you're just an email or a few hour drive away if I should need more (I'm sure you'll be missed)... please take care of yourself for life is indeed very short ... See you soon... Insha' Allah.

Hey everyone I will be off with my daughter-in-law all day tomorrow.
I have no idea what that stinker has up her sleeve she called me this morning tell me to clear my calander for the day she is picking me up in the morning, something about an early mothers day.
I see jannah is shutting down the boards for maintenance Fri
and hubby will be home to help me with the packing so the pc will be packed this week-end.

Please everyone take care and I'll talk to you all in a few weeks.
All of you are special to me and I'll be thinking and praying for all of you.

Jannah and bhaloo I hope after the maintenance you take a short break for yourselves you two and the mods so much deserve it and you put so much of your time into this to make it all possible for us. Thank you.

So except for tonight and maybe tomorrow night I'm outta here for a while
Please, if I have offended or hurt anyone by my words and attitude, please forgive me. Tis not intentional. I am just so opinionated and I really do care.

Jazak Allahu Khairan
May God Grant you what is good
(hopefully I used that in a right manor but you get the heart meaning)   ;)
