Qur'an 20180911

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

78.  And there are among them illiterates, who know not the Book but desires, and they do nothing but conjecture.

79.  Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands and then say, "This is from Allah," to traffic with it for a miserable price.  Woe to them for what their hands do write, and for the gain they make thereby.

80.  And they say, "The Fire shall not touch us but for a few numbered days."  Say, "Have you taken a promise with Allah, for God never breaks the Promise of Allah?  Or is it that you say of Allah what you do not know?"

(The Heifer 1:78-80)

Black Monday

Hi Natty honey!  Sorry I'm running late today.  I got started on my dinner late, and it was fish, so it was messy.  Fish and rice.  Fish is so messy to eat.  You have to cook it until the flesh comes off the bones, which pretty much means the whole fish falls apart.  Unless you're eating it raw, then you can just fillet it and life becomes so much simpler.  But today I stuffed and fried it in a closed pan, which effectively steams the fish at the same time.  But so messy.  How are you today, my love?  Busy?  If so, then please make sure you relax and rest adequately, and eat properly.  Don't forget to pray!  I called today Black Monday, but it's not really a gloomy day.  I was just referring to outfit I wore for voice training, since Sunday was supposed to be black, but I forgot.  Sunday was also the King's birthday, and tomorrow is the first day of the Islamic calendar (Awal Muharram), both being public holidays, but since the King's birthday was Sunday, the holiday was Monday, which made it a 4 day weekend for most folks.  I have to work everyday, so I didn't know that.  I went downtown to do some shopping, but most of the stores were closed.  It also means that the tourists are back in town, and I didn't know that either.  Good thing I've been extra reclusive, and haven't left the house in 3 days.  I try to keep out of sight when it's tourist season.

Today's outfit has to be one of my favorites.  It's so simple.  It's so ME.
