Bismillah...

 Where Am I...WHY?

Hello and salam everyone, inshaAllah all is well with you and yours. I have not updated Rainbow's blog in what feels like forever, and I want to sincerely apologize to those readers who followed along the Book of the Week, or Bucket-list etc. I have also failed to reply to emails and visit blogs, but I know you will forgive me, inshaAllah. I don't know how long I will not be here (if you know what I mean), so please bear with me.

Just checking in to say that I am not really around much right now because to be honest, my family is in crisis. I know we all face "stuff", so I don't mean to stand, or sit here (lol), whining about the blah blah blahs of life. I know you get it. I figure, the truth behind the lives of bloggers is not always worth telling everywhere and anywhere, but to be as real as I can be, I am putting it out there that I need to make home right before I even think of breathing a word about "normalcy" and whatever...

As I write this I am not not in a dark mood or anything, alhamdullelah. I am just putting myself out there a bit, and saying, "hey, we're here, but we need some time to work on us...". Honestly, subhanAllah, a lot has been going very well for us, and I think the bad things are just little hiccups that are sent to prepare us for the future...inshaAllah.

So when one door closes, I try to find another to knock on or, or KICK down, lol. OR, I go around to the backdoor...climb through a window...I can even be like Spiderman and climb up buildings, or leap over skycrapers like Superman...who knows.

I am thankful and grateful for those of you who checked in on me....May Allah bless you all.

Care for some Candor?

    Wa Alai Kom salam sis,
    How are you? I am trying to catch up on everything. Husband is away for a week...first time being away, and having a semi normal internet connection in months, so trying to blog everyday, en sha Allah. Something for you to look forward to after your break.

    It is good to take a time out now and then....you know I have taken many. Sometimes we need to refocus and re shuffel our lives.
    So true '' the bad things are just little hiccups that are sent to prepare us for the future...inshaAllah.''

    En sha Allah everything will be smoothed out.
    Look forward to when you reconnect en sha Allah
    Love and Salams K xxxx
