🌟🌙 Eid Mubarak from Melting Jordan 🙉🙈🙊 Eids always amaze me! 🍀 On the one hand, they are sweet because I get to see friends and relatives that I haven’t met for a while. Last night I met my little cousin who is seven years old for the first time since the beginning of March-2020 (The Pre-COVID-19- Lockdown Era). We are very close friends, so I enjoyed my time a LOT 😉 We measured our heights. She was a few CMs taller than last time “MashAllah”, but we have grown to believe that I’m getting shorter 🙄 Also, we checked each other’s dresses and her sense of fashion beat me! I have a lot to learn from her 😄 On the other hand, Eids arrive most of the times while accompanied with some unexpected things in my case 😁 Jordan is suffering a heatwave same as many countries in the region, so it’s seriously hot as if we are sitting in front of a fireplace. Yes, AC and fans are on! Three-four nights ago I believe I was bitten by an insect! I could feel the pain of being bitten “live” because I caught it in the act but I couldn’t see what was biting me! It seemed like an undercover insect 🕷 As a true Jordanian I told myself I’m too busy to go to the ER and I could fix this at home despite the fact that the bite itched like crazy. I applied all the tricks in my book, in mom’s book and about to apply the relatives’ and neighbours’ tricks 🙄 We all agree here that it’s the work of a whole village that counts! Yesterday it was the first day of Eid and part of my foot and leg had a red rash around the bite area. Of course the heat didn’t help. Today is the second day of Eid and I’m in the phase of using tea tree oil. Fingers crossed 🤓 Happy Eid straight from my heart and the heart of the Arab World to you all ☪️ 💚
