Qur'an 20230621

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

47.  And they used to say, "What!  When we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be raised up again?"

48.  "And our fathers of old?"

49.  Say, "Yes, those of old and those of later times."

The Inevitable 56:47-49

Fruit

 

Hi Natty!  How's it going, Honey?  Were you waiting for me?  I'm waiting for you!  Don't you worry about a thing, my dearest heart.  Everything will work out absolutely fabulous for us InshaAllah.  Please keep yourself safe and healthy in the meanwhile.  I had to go out in the morning to buy fruit and chicken this morning.  That's a mangosteen in the picture.  At first I wanted lychees, but they said the lychees didn't arrive.  Later I read in the news that there was a dog eating festival going on right now somewhere in China, where they eat dog with lychees.  OK then.  No thanks, I don't want any.  I bought mangosteens instead.  I don't eat a lot of fruit, it usually gives me the runs.  I like mangosteens regardless, but I have had a hard time trying to grow a tree of my own.  So I'm going to give it another try.  I hear this fruit tree is slow growing, but maybe God will be kind enough to make an exception in my case.

I didn't buy a chicken, I bought boneless chicken breast.  But I didn't have that for lunch, I made ramen instead.  I thought I would use a white bowl instead of my usual pink bowl so it would photograph better, and it does.  You can even see the ramen brick at the bottom of the bowl.  Want some?

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

33.  Say, "The things that my Lord has indeed forbidden are illegal sexual activity whether open or secret, sins or trespasses against truth or reason, assigning of partners to Allah for which God has given no authority, and saying things about Allah for which you have no knowledge."

(The Heights 7:32-33)

Monday

 

Hi Natty!  What's going on today, Honey?  I'm sure you are keeping busy this Monday.  Please keep safe and healthy OK!  I went out early this morning.  My mother wanted to go to the market.  We also stopped by the supermarket, and I got some chocolate for myself, also more big potatoes!  I love fries!  Lookie is still in heat, but I managed to plug up all the holes in the barricade so no one slips out.  Anna managed to escape yesterday, but she didn't know what to do with her freedom once she got outside.  I found her huddled under a plastic chair, looking miserable.  Poor kitty!  What a pampered pussycat.

Termites!

 

Hi Natty!  How are you today, my love?  I hope that everything is smooth sailing for you, and you are having tons of fun.  Please keep safe and healthy OK!  It's Sunday here today.  Sundays are always busy for me, and today I had a termite infestation to add to the list.

Lookie is in heat right now, so I had to separate the girls from the boys, so I put the girls in the kitty litter room and closed the door.  But Anna got outside somehow, so I guessed she found a weakness in the barricade I set up at the window.  Thus I was looking for something to plug up the hole when I found the termites in the closet, feeding on some books.  I checked other places to see how big of a problem I had, then I discovered that the termites destroyed the WW2 US Army jacket that Mary gave me a long time ago.  This is the same jacket I wore all the time when I was homeless.  The curious thing is that there were no termites in the jacket, and the other clothes were untouched.  I came to the conclusion that the termites nested in the jacket first, then moved on to the books.  You can see how the termites ate the wooden hanger.  I have termite poison (potent stuff), but the jacket is toast.  Sorry Mary, but this nostalgia is unsaleable.  I guess I'm not in the US Army anymore.  I kept the rank and pins, though.
