SubhanAllah.....Guess what??? You know that little insurance paper that caused me sooooooo much head and heartache???? Well I found the sucker and the date of expiration was 8-8-06. When did my hubby get the ticket??? 8-11-06. WOW!!!! I guess it wouldn't have made a difference whether the dumb paper was in the car or not. It might have even been worse if he had an expired insurance paper in the glove box.

Anyways Qadr Allah. I think it's sooooo funny (not really) when men get married to another woman they like to throw it in your face that "It's Qadr Allah, " but when it comes to something like getting a ticket they don't want to hear "It's Qadr Allah." Funny huh? Not really!!!

By the way today insha Allah a friend of mine who is in a polygamous marriage is coming over insha Allah and her friend who is also in a polygamous marriage is coming too. Guess what my task is for the evening??? It is to convince my friend's friend that she should allow her husband to take back his second wife before her iddah is over. I guess it is easier to give other people advice than to actually apply it to yourself. If I was in the same situation I wonder if I would be doing the same thing. I did do it once though, but I probably wouldn't do it again. Their story is different than mine though.

Anyways I better get to sleep. It is 4:16 a.m. here and I need to wake up for fajr in an hour insha Allah. My 2 year old busted her head on the computer desk and it opened her forehead and she was bleeding really bad.....Scared me to death....so I was watching her to make sure she was ok and holding her wound and when she slept I was not sleepy anymore, but now I am worn out. WHAT A DAY??!! Alhamdulillah 3alla kul hal!!!

I would have the hardest time advising someone about polygyny......I have this thing about where I cannot be placed in the worst situation and make the best example....thats a level of jihad that I haven't accomplished yet.......

wow, let us know what happens with the meeting with the sister. subhanAllah, you know, one of the things that really keps me in check regarding how i deal with my situation is that i know that i am setting an example for other sisters regarding polygyny. it's like, we should set a positive example in all matters of the deen, and this includes polygyny. so many of my sister-friends have told me time and again how much they are learning from me as i go through it all. we should all keep this in mind as we battle the various trials of this dunya. anyway...perhaps helping another sister in polygyny will give you some insight into your own situation. look forward to readind more insha'Allah.

Don't worry about that head wound. Those forehead cuts always bleed like mad and look worse than they are. Were you able to close it up with a tight bandaid or butterfly?

Take care sis,
PM

I feel the exact same way with you Safa on the advising others about polygny, can't make the best example of a bad situation. Perhaps why I tend to flutter away for so long?!!

Anyway, assalamu'alaikum Vena. I'm the blogger who blogs on other peoples' blogs but mine....hahaha. Nice to meet you sister!:)
