Shake Shack

The kids and I are still on a quest to find the BEST burger in Kuwait...

We decided to try Shake Shack again...

This time, I will tell you that the burgers were better than last time. I do enjoy the crinkly fries:)

This was YUMMMMY! It is like cake and ice cream all mixed together, you know... The way you do it at birthday parties! At least I do!

 As you can see... It is more expensive then the Smash Burger... We will have to go to Fat Burger again... as I do not recall the price...

17.500 KD equals....62.12 USD!!! Oh Me, Oh My!

Brazilian student auctions virginity-Sad

Most of my night... I am watching/listening to the News.

Sometimes I hear things that TRULY sadden me... Like the story below.



Can you imagine?  This is a special moment for any woman... A moment that she will remember for the rest of her life.
At times a lot of us forget how lucky we really are.  I couldn't imagine being in her situation.

I am not sure what this lady's plight was, however, she is now FAMOUS and her virginity went for 780,000!!!

Blog Loving!

Blogging!


I have found that Blogging has become my favorite past time... If I am not blogging something, then I am reading someone elses blog!

I LOVE IT! Just take the key to my heart you WONDERFUL people!

I am attracted to SMART people! I do not even know who they are, but I am intrigued by them! It is AMAZING!

Since I have been in Kuwait, I have hardly made any friends...
That is strange to me... But something that I am used to. I have been contracting for a long time and I have moved around A LOT so I generally do not get too attached to anyone. I am almost sure that is NOT healthy! I have abandonment issues! LOL.

When I am on the bus to go to work I hear, "Hey Amber", "Hi Amber"...
When I am at the grocery store... In Fahaheel... Malls... Eating Dinner... ETC same thing. A lot of people KNOW who I am... Yet- I do not have friends.

Have I closed myself of as a defense mechanism?


To start the year off right... I have decided to STAY AWAY from any OFFICE DRAMA... And make some friends that do NOT work in my office!

Happy New Year!!! 2013

Happy New Year 2013!!!

Remember the lessons learned and strive not to make the same mistakes in 2013!

Forget the negativity! Move forward with a smile and the hope that this year everything will work out!

I have been working on myself all of 2012 and I think that so far, so good!

The biggest lesson that I have learned is...

-I cannot control everything in my life.-

That was a hard pill to swallow!

I cannot control other people or their actions.

It is a New Year! Another beginning! Make this year great!

Even small steps are progression!!! Poco a poco!!!

I am still working on my resolution list! 

New Years Nails!

It is almost 2013!

Here is a fun and festive look! Did I mention EASY to do?

Paint the tips... Underline with glitter... Put on the top coat, Whaaaaa Laaaaa! Beautiful!
Also- In the event that you need a quick TOUCH UP!... Apply glitter OVER the purple:

Early Bird, get a table!

We have tried to eat at Early Bird for the last 3 Fridays... I decided since I couldn't sleep, to wake up the kids and the nanny... Let's start the day! Because I love you:)

We FINALLY got a table at Early Bird. Yummy Yummy!!!

 This is us at 0500!  That means 5 AM!

They are giving me so much sugar!

 Banana Bread French Toast! LOVE IT!

 Mary Ann and her Waffle!

 My breakfast. It was an omlet.

 Domiyana had the Monte Cristo

Dj had the Breakfast Club Sandwich

I was doing Medical in Jabriya and met a lady at who worked at the Early Bird there... Strangest thing, she was from the same county as me in FLORIDA! She was a bit younger then me though... I have seen her 3 or 4 times after that, but I am not sure if she remembers me... So I have never talked to her to find out how she got here and whatnot... I will work on being more social:)

Here is the info for The Early Bird

The food was very good!

The Sultan Center was open also! It was great! I finished all of my chores with NO traffic! No crowds! Yes, It is true, the early bird gets the worm!

Friday Family Fun! Desert Style

After running errands... I was on Twitter asking, "What should I do with the kiddies?" The ever so wonderful and sweet American Girl gave me a wonderful suggestion! And directions to a spot where I ccould take the kiddies!

 Me and the kids... This is my hair without any heat... You will probably NEVER see this again! LOL

 This man is brave! Mimi is learning how to drive!

 Let me put your hair up!

 She is so cute huh!?

 Going to where the 4 wheeler area. It was so pretty there... BEWARE of PotHoles!

 Going to get lunch...

Here are the kids knocked out! A sign of a job well done!

I think that we will go out there again soon.

On the way there were so many people selling fireworks and kites! I will get some next time and spend the day out there... Where is the bathroom though? I didn't see one of those... Hmmm
