So its here tomorrow.... this year is different. Usually I go up to my mums Christmas eve and stay for as few a day as possible, then back to work.. although the past 2 years I have also been going to the 'Reviving the Islamic Spirit' convention which lasts over 3 days masha'allah.. I will miss that this year, I have been following Organica's blog who is at the week long (I think) retreat before the convention masha'allah. Im hoping she passes on salams and hugs to a friend of mine, would be cool to think of them together :)
This year Im not working (obviously) so I have been at the family house for quite awhile now since coming back up North last tuesday. I will be here for the christmas holidays without a car although I have booked a car to rent from next Monday so insha'allah Im going to pop over to west Yorkshire to visit a few friends (you know who you are!)
I pray everyone has a quiet few days off and gets to spend time with family if they do celebrate christmas..
Aww, I miss RIS tooo!!! altho i only went to the last one... but it was so much fun, i really wish i could go back again this year!
ReplyDeleteThere's absolutely no chance of snow in my area so i've left all my winter clothing behind in Canada, maybe in a few years I'll return to the slopes agaain Insha'allah!
