Kolyoum - Everyday Essentials - كل يوم للمرأة العملية  

Yes my mum and sis were here on a visit for ten days. I love this time of the year and always look forward for them to come. It's like breaking all the year routine, doing lots of things that I can't do alone, like shopping for example. They go out ALL day long and don't think of coming back for lunch or to rest. They don't want to waste a second without doing what they originally came for.
My mum loves Brands, so I either find her at Salhiya or Al Raya and this year she also visited 360 Mall. As for my sister, she is into her own style. She is younger than me and slimmer so she can wear whatever she wants and it suits her.
Now we nearly have all these brands in Egypt, but unfortunately a bit expensive. So, they have to view whatever is available there first before coming here, in order not to buy the models available there; to be unique.
I sometimes drop them off to whatever mall they want and just leave them for the full day and other times I stay with them for a while. My back problem is what makes me not stay longer with them.
We meet and have a bite or go to any coffee shop in the afternoon and I took them out for breakfast last Saturday before they left. Lucky me, I bought a Versace Bag when I was with them the last day.
Oh I will miss them for the coming six months until we meet again in summer ISA.

You wouldn't believe what happened with the cat! As you know that I called my husband and told him that he has to take care of that cat and I meant that he should get rid of her and take it back to his friend. He came back from work and nothing happened, I had to go to my workshop again in the evening and in the middle of it I received a call from my daughter telling me that they returned the cat back and she sounded like crying. Do you believe that I wasn't happy to hear that? Or putting it in another way, I wasn't happy to hear and feel the sadness in my daughter's voice, even though I really don't want the cat. I was depressed and left the workshop though it was getting more interesting, but I lost interest in everything all of a sudden. I was driving like crazy and thinking at the same time. I went home safely thank God and I talked with my children about what happened. In the beginning they said they were OK, but deep inside they were sad and couldn't say it, though it showed. I knew that now they were thinking that I am the selfish Mum who is doing what is best for her and not caring about their needs. So, we made a deal that I will bring them back the cat on two conditions which were of course they should take care of it and its cleanliness and the second condition that they would keep it in their room until they return back from school and ofcourse they agreed and I took them and went to get back our CAT.
