Delay, delay, delay

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

Assalamu Alaikum...

Much has happened since my last post. There are some stuff that happened that I won't be mentioning on this post or blog. On the 10th of January 2010, Sunday I unintentionally took down the drapes in my bedroom.

I shopped at Yasser Mall for the first time on my own on the 11th of January 2010, Monday. I took a shower on the 12th of January. On the 13th of January 2010, Wednesday I had an outing for some spices specifically for my teeth.

On that day the dental appointment was delayed for a week. The secretary called me on my cellular and said to delay it for a week. I asked why and she said something like some person the dentist knew had died or something like that.

I changed the light bulb in the balcony on the 14th of January. My brother called through the land phone and talked with our mom on the 15th of January 2010, Friday.

I had an outing for some groceries on the 17th of January 2010, Sunday. I changed the gas canister for the gas heater in the living room on that day. I clipped my finger nails on that day. There was an electricity outage during that night.

It rained on the 18th of January. It rained on the 19th of January 2010, Tuesday. It rained on the 20th of January 2010, Wednesday. The dental appointment was delayed indefinitely on that day. I tried calling the office, but there was no answer.

I tried calling on that day. It seemed that no one was working there and that was probably why no one answered. Now my mom wants to have her next dental appointment some time late in March. I did some home maintenance on that day.

The home maintenance I did was basically clearing some white paint off some windows on some of the doors here in the home. I took out the garbage on the 21st of January 2010, Thursday. I got some sweet ka'ak for the first time on my own on that day.

My MP3 player refused to recharge here in the home on that day and I haven't been using it since that time because I simply can't. I had an outing for some bread on the 22nd of January. I changed the gas canister for the stove in the kitchen on that day.

I took a shampoo on the 23rd of January 2010, Saturday. I had an outing for some groceries on that day, and I visited a friend of mine on that day. It was on that day that I was an imam for the first time while I was visiting a friend of mine.

Being an imam is certainly different from being a follower in prayer. It was a nice and different feeling. As for yesterday, which was the 24th of January, the doorknob of my bedroom door from the outside broke. It started raining during that night.

It was last night when a cold front came in from Cyprus. It rained today, and it would continuously rain on and off today. I think I don't need to explain the title of this post. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...

January 2010 Departure

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

Assalamu Alaikum...

On the 1st of January 2010, Friday there was an electricity outage. I cleaned one side of the oven partially on that day, and I changed the gas canister for the gas heater on that day. I took a shower and shampoo on the 2nd of January.

I shaved some for the first time with a shaving device on that day. That day was the first anniversary for Al-Darb Diya. There was an electricity outage on the 3rd of January 2010, Sunday. I bought a new calendar for 2010 on that day.

I visited a friend of mine on that day. That day there was a family outing to Mecca Mall with me, my brother and my mom going there. It was the first time had been in Mecca Mall ever.

I prayed Qiyam Lail during the early morning for the first time in 2010 before the dawn prayer, on the 4th of January 2010. Two friends visited the home on that day. I got a new green blanket for my bed on that day.

My father called my brother on that day, because my father tried calling me but my cellular was in my bedroom and I was here in the living room, so I didn't hear it. On the 5th of January 2010, Tuesday I took out the garbage.

The garbage included an old blanket of mine. Since I had a new blanket, there was no need for the old one. I retrieved money from the bank on that day, and I took a shower and shampoo on that day. We had a family visit to some relatives on that day.

I clipped my finger nails and some of my toe nails on the 6th of January. The 7th of January 2010, Thursday was a long day for me, my brother and my mom. The three of us went on a family outing to my mom's dental appointment.

A new appointment was made for her and myself on that day. I dealt with getting a new Jordanian passport to a large degree on the 7th of January. Getting a new one isn't over yet. My brother and a friend helped me reach to the process I'm at now.

I visited a few friends of mine on that day, and I cleared up some books in the guest room. I observed some workers dealing with putting down a new carpet in the hallway on that day. I put up the new clotheslines and dealt with it on that day.

My mom changed the location of the land phone on that day. I took a shower and took out the garbage on the 8th of January. As for yesterday, which was the 9th of January 2010, Saturday, it was a long day.

I stayed awake throughout the night because it was early that morning my brother would be leaving Jordan back to the U.S. I played with my brother on the Playstation during the early morning before the dawn prayer yesterday.

My brother departed Jordan during the early morning of that day. I went with some friends who took him to the airport to see him off. Once we saw my brother off, my friends and I went back to my friends' family car.

The car key was inside, and we were locked outside the car. It took some effort but with help from some others we were able to eventually get into the car and leave the airport. As for today, the 10th of January 2010, Sunday, I took out the garbage.

I exchanged two empty gas canister with two full ones this morning. I had an outing to pay the telephone bill and later on afterward I retrieved some clothes for my mom from a tailor's shop.

This post is titled what it is because my brother went back to the U.S. during this month. As soon as I came back home yesterday from seeing my brother off in the airport, I slept for some time, and I eventually woke up close to the noon prayer.

It wasn't a comfortable sleep, but that was dealt with when I slept last night. I slept like a baby alhamdullah, getting the sleep I need during the right time. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...

I took out the garbage on that day. I trimmed my mustache and took a shampoo on the 26th of December. My brother brought a plumber over to the home on that day, and the plumber fixed the bathroom completely. It's a new bathroom now.

I fasted on that day because it was the 9th of Muharram. My brother was able to fix the light in the living room on that day, and since then we've been using it. It was the first anniversary of the recent Zionist aggression on Gaza on the 27th of December 2009, Sunday.

I visited my aunt on that day, and I helped her with some supplies. I also fasted on that day. Viva Palestina convoy announced and begun its hunger strike on that day. It started hunger strike because it was not being allowed in Egypt while being stuck in Aqaba, Jordan on the 27th of December.

That was the first time in quite some time that I took a shower in warm water. I visited a friend of mine on that day. I folded some of my clothes neatly in my bedroom on the 30th of December 2009, Wednesday. It rained on that day.

My bedroom was organized in its permanent way on that day. My brother helped me organize it the way it is now. The living room was also organized on that day. As for yesterday, which was the last day of the Year of Mystics 2009, I had an outing with my brother for some shopping.

This is the first entry for the Year of Owl 2010 insha' Allah. More entries would follow insha' Allah. There was an electricity outage this morning that started around 8:21 am and it returned around 8:51 am. The home is changing.

It's starting to look like a new home now. Jawhiz Ca Trani is the name I named for the home I'm living in now, and it has been, and still is being, renewed into a new home in a way. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...

December Arrival

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

Assalamu Alaikum...

Much has happened since my previous post and so I have much to say. The post would eventually explain its title. I retrieved money from the bank on the 2nd of December 2009, Wednesday.

I had an outing to the pharmacy and for some supplies on that day. I finished dealing with all the e-mails that were piled up on my feranin e-mail on that day. I changed the gas canister for the gas heater in the living room on that day.

The eldest son of the landlady had a wedding party on that day. I changed my name on Facebook on that day to "Ammaar 'Amarito' Al-Jallad". I changed my school's name in School Vandals from Greenglade Academy to Comets of Light.

I changed my city's name in Metropolis from Andalus to Shining Path. On the 3rd of December 2009, Thursday I took out the garbage and I had an outing with my mom. The chargers for my cellular broke on the 4th of December.

It was the next day, on the 5th of December 2009, Saturday that I got a new charger. I wasn't able to charge my cellular's battery for a night. I had an outing for some earphone and some empty DVDs, which I got some time before getting the charger.

On the 6th of December I prepared my bedroom for my brother's visit. I started burning my drive onto the empty DVDs I got a day earlier on that day. I signed up for Artician Creative Network on the 7th of December 2009, Monday.

I finished dealing with all the e-mails that were piled up on my green_religion e-mails on that day. It rained on that day. I took out the garbage on the 9th of December 2009, Wednesday. It rained on that day.

I clipped my finger nails and took a shampoo on that day. On the 10th of December 2009, I had an outing for some sandwiches. It was some time before midnight that day when my brother finally arrived home from the airport.

That day was a long day and it deserves to have a record of its own. I don't know if I'm going to write such a record or not. December Arrival is based on my brother arriving on that day. That's why I chose the title for this post.

On the 11th of December, I had an outing with my brother and my mom to Yasser Mall. That was the first time I was ever on the second floor in Yasser Mall. Some time after we came back my brother and I went to visit some friends nearby.

When we came back from that visit, I changed the gas canister for the stove in the kitchen. I took out the garbage on the 13th of December 2009, Sunday. I had an outing for some bread on that day. I installed and was able to use Yahoo! Messenger 9 for the first time on the computer here in the home on that day.

With encouragement from my brother I exchanged two gas canisters on the 14th of December. I talked with my dad through my cellular on that day. I started cleaning the refrigerator on the 17th of December 2009, Thursday.

I didn't finish the job, and I didn't do my best in it either. I had an outing with my brother and my mom for some stuff for my mom on that day. It rained during the night of that day. It rained on the 18th of December. There were three electricity outages on that day.

It was the first time my brother experienced the electric outages we have from time to time. The first outage was the longest while the remaining two were short. As for yesterday, I had an outing with my mom and my brother for some clothes for my mom.

Yesterday was the 19th of December 2009, Saturday. I let a younger brother of a friend of mine borrow my old digital camera later on yesterday. I changed the gas canister for the gas heater in the living room yesterday.

Today I took out the garbage. My brother and my dad got me some gifts through my brother, but I don't want to get into details about those here. Three days ago was the beginning of a new hijri year, with it being 1431 H now.

Take care, and assalamu alaikum...
