Bloggin' From Saudi

Day 40 – Post 17

A chat with the ladies

“But dad........”

Lately, whining is all I hear out of my daughters Bethany and Patricia. They want to drive the family car but the problem in Saudi Arabia is that women aren't allowed. If a woman is caught driving she will be stoned. Simple fact of life around here. I don't see it as a huge deal but the whining has convinced me that I must address a more important issue - my remaining sane.

This blogger: I live in Boomer Village right off route 482. This is my blog... a source of relief that my therapist recommended. I'm 65, I don't belong here, I hate my abandoning family and I hate my life.

Cultural Differences????

“Nothing bad ever happened to anyone that ate a Ham sandwich, so eat it and stop your complaining”

That's what my mother told me growing up, but that sage advice isn't what occurred to me today.

Bloggin' From Saudi - Day 29 - Post 15-UGHHH HHHHH HHHH HHHHH HHHHHhh Joy won't stop harassing me about the incident last week with the handy man. She keeps saying it's indicative of greater problems of oppression and terror in Saudi Arabia and that we need to address it or move out. Problem is I love my job at AbdAbd Technologies, which I refuse to jeopardize simply because of this stupid event. It's not my fault she can't read a Saudi phonebook.
