Hello there, my beautiful Ladies!  How are those emotions?  How's business?  I guess you would either be super excited or just trying to hide.  Oh well, do the best you can with what Allah has given you.  Few people have a life like yours.  I'm posting earlier than usual, to compensate for my Ramadan schedule.  I'm trying to remember when I posted last year, I think it was before sunset.  This first day has been an easy one, alhamdulillah.  Nice and cool.  So I slept in, by the time I finished  the morning chores it was almost time for voice training.  I figured since I slept in, I wouldn't need a nap.  Wrong!  I was struggling to keep awake.  I suppose I am good somewhat at putting people to sleep, but that includes me.  Right now I have dinner ready to go, I just need to cook the rice which I will time about half an hour before sunset.  We break fast at sunset, then I pray after drinking some water (other people usually eat first), then I stuff my dinner down as quickly as possible, then I head out to the mosque.  Hectic!

I suppose y'all are looking forward to hearing my singing some Patsy Cline.  I'm still working on it.  She bellows like a bull, though.  I don't know if I can be that aggressive.  I'm just a girl!

Qur'an 20190506

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful

81.  Those who were left behind rejoiced in their inaction behind the back of the messenger of Allah, they hated to strive and fight with their goods and their persons in the cause of Allah, they said, "Go not forth in the heat."  Say, "The fire of hell is fiercer in heat."  If they only could understand!

82.  Let them laugh a little, much will they weep: a recompense for that that they do.

83.  If then Allah brings you back to any one of them and they ask your permission to come out, say, "Never shall you come out with me, nor fight an enemy with me, for you preferred to sit inactive on the first occasion, then sit you with those who lag behind."

84.  Nor do you ever pray for any one of them that dies, nor stand at his grave, for they rejected Allah and God's messenger, and died in a state of perverse rebellion.

(The Repentance 9:81-84)

Note that it was the act of no action on the first occasion that caused them to die in a state of perverse rebellion.

Ramadan

Hi there, my precious Ladies!  How are you feeling?  How's business?  I want you to know that I love you and love you the same.  Marriage, and in our case Rock and Roll, is serious business so let's work together.  Ramadan starts on Monday, and I've been busy preparing.  Fasting during the month of Ramadan is a mandatory work for Muslims, so if you are not Muslim then don't bother fasting.  I still have to sing every day plus the usual chores, but I'm not going to bother with too much food preparation.  Everything is going to be quick and simple to eat and cook.  Homemade rice dishes will probably take the most time, so I'll just do that overnight while I do computer work.  There is extra worship to do, but I'm just going to do that at home to save time.  InshaAllah.

Ramadan is my favorite time of year.  So many strange things happen.  Hopefully not corpses floating in water without heads, hands and feet... actually that DID happen.  And Ramadan hasn't even started yet...  From Allah is our origin, and to Allah is our return.  Ya Allah, please make this a safe and wonderful Ramadan for us.

Please make a donation in the name of Allah of a minimum of one US dollar to a worthwhile charity

Hi Erin!  How's it going, Honey?  How's business?  I assume you are very busy.  Well, please take good care of yourself, eat properly and get plenty of rest.  You are my love, you are beautiful and I love you.  The computer decided for me what Patsy Cline song to sing besides "Walkin' After Midnight": "Your Cheatin' Heart".  That's a famous song, isn't it?  I'm only just beginning to get into country music.  I'm very busy nowadays.  Ramadan is on Monday, and I went to get supplies this morning after doing chores.  There is an unexpected influx of tourists right now.  I had to cut the grass this evening, then make "sambal tumis" plus my dinner, and I just took a shower and prayed the sunset prayer.  Then when I get back from the mosque inshaAllah, I have to work on my wardrobe.  At least it's a nice, cool day today which puts me in a good mood.  Alhamdulillah.

YouTube does has its uses

Hi Natty!  Wow, you look positively delicious in your Amazon lingerie.  They fit quite well I must say, but so does almost everything else on you.  You're bringing out the wolf in me!  🐺  What lovely arms and shoulders you have, my Darling.  Perfection.  Dead flowers seem quite morbid, though.  I guess that would be convenient.

I was watching YouTube last night, I watched a bunch of videos where angry parents destroyed their kids' electronics.  Yeah granted the kids weren't doing anything else, but that is the heartbeat of society nowadays, electronics that is.  It used to be that kids didn't do anything whatsoever when there were no electronics.  The current devices of media isn't worthless folks, even though you may not quite understand it.  Perhaps you can negotiate usage time per chore time, for example doing the dishes and taking out the trash daily gets you a GB of data each day.  Anything that's better than losing control of your temper in front of and towards your kids.  Yeah, I know anger is human nature.  I too have to struggle with that.

But I do learn a lot of stuff from YouTube.  For instance, green potatoes are poisonous.  I learned this watching YouTube while eating an alternative brand of potato crisps .  Then suddenly I felt sick and started to sweat profusely (more than usual), I got food poisoning!  Then it occurred to me why this particular brand of crisps is always on sale: it's made out of green potatoes.

Oh dear, this dress is really slutty.  I assure you, I am wearing panties.  So you all can just perceive it as a form of modified bikini.

Patsy Cline

Hi Erin!  How's it going, Honey?  How's business?  I hope America is appreciating how precious their Sports Princess is.  I love you!  What's for dinner?  I have a lot of tomatoes.  Tomatoes were going for super cheap yesterday at the supermarket.  So for the next few days it's going to be tomato everything.  When I was a kid, I didn't care so much for fresh tomatoes.  Now I can't get enough of them.  I'm thinking about singing a couple of Patsy Cline songs.  "Walkin' After Midnight" of course.  Do you have another song to suggest?

This is NOT Patsy Cline.

I like to collect plastic bags to reuse.  I have a drawer full of plastic bags, some of them might be years old.  I guess I'm overwhelmed with plastic bags right now.

It's the end of the world.  Agriculture is being abandoned in favor of Bitcoin, and nature is being choked by trash.  It does seem overwhelming.  The locals here haven't caught on to biodegradable bags yet, so there's still a lot of plastic out there.  Here we have people smuggling in trash, most likely because other people pay to get rid of it.  Sounds corrupt to me.  I try to generate as little trash as possible and with my new diet and budget, I seem to be doing that quite well.  Today was a good day.  This snapshot below shows 2 days of trash for me.
