Oh summer

And the attack of the swimsuits!  If it were a blessing, I would be so much more pleased.  But you are so beautiful, what can I say?  I spent the morning doing housecleaning.  It is Sunday after all, and I always clean my mother's bedroom every Sunday.  It looks like you are having a blissful time enjoying the sun.  I long for the autumn breeze in the mountains.  Yesterday was a rather cool day though, alhamdulillah.  There was a cool breeze blowing into my bedroom while I was voice training, which culminated in a storm at 5 pm.  My room didn't cool down until the next morning though, but it's still cool right now.  Stuffy little room.  I have some bread baking in the oven.  Baking bread takes a longer time, but I'm not using up cooking gas.  I'll eat it with the beef has I made the other day.  A very humble menu today.

Oh Natty, you look beautiful!  There's always shit going on, how can you not see it?  It's better than being stoned and numb all the time- being alert gives you the edge.

But right now I feel sleepy.  Pina, do you like doing housework?  Maybe you can change my bedsheets.  I hope there's no grass growing underneath.

**yawn**  More rest!

Qur'an 20170827

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

3.  The unbelievers say, "Never to us will come the Hour."  Say, "No!  But most surely by my Lord, it will come upon you, by God who knows the unseen, from Whom is not hidden the least little atom in the heavens or on earth, nor is there anything less than that, or greater, but is in a Record Perspicuous."

4.  That God may reward those who believe and work deeds of righteousness: for such is Forgiveness, and a Sustenance most Generous.

5.  But those who strive against Our Signs, to frustrate them- for such will be a Penalty- a Punishment most humiliating.

6.  And those to whom Knowledge has come see that this sent down to you from your Lord- that is the Truth, and that it guides to the Path of the Exalted, Worthy of all praise.

Sheba 34:3-6
