Please forgive me... My mom has got lumbago, my dad is on a flu and they went to a BD party today, so i was alone with the kids - have got a flu myself... so only one chapter today... SORRY
If people wanted to send stuff to us, I would mostly be into baby things… Flasks, bibs and clothes. Surely we would find some cheaper ones in Libya. Life costs there were cheaper than in Europe. We also had Nestlé products in Libya. The lady fm the chemists in Germany said that Nestlé products were very good. Whatever we would do – we would swing it somehow. Salah was against putting the kid in a “normal” bed. If I had known that one, we would have had a cradle on the attic of grand-ma’s house. Yet that was too late now. He wanted to place such a bed into the house. The house was crammed, I wanted to know where he would put that cradle…
Finally we received a good address of a chemist who was also selling baby clothing and other stuff. In Libya you find baby clothing and all the stuff you need as a mom at the chemist’s. We would go there…

We had received a mail fm Betty Bossi (that is a Swiss editor abt recipes, which is very famous, there). They had donuts with black chocolate filling. WOW, awesome. I printed the recipe for Salah and the bakery shop. Yet the black chocolate bowls we were unable to find and, besides the Libyans preferred milk chocolate.

Instead of Carnival there was Kindergarten in Libya. Two countries – Libya and Saudi Arabia had a personal verbal fight… Even so Saudi Arabia had helped Libya a lot to get back to normal life – with no embargo anymore, Ghadaffi was upset. The Muslim countries had met then - i.e. all of them. Ghadaffi accused the Saudis to be pimps because America was actually ruling them. And with that – they had the best possibility to attack the Iraq when based in Saudi Arabia. The ruler fm Saudi Arabia only replied: who brought you to power? And btw: where are you fm really? And, in addition to that: if your back up was not there – would you not be dead then? Well truth hurts. The funny thing was, all were sitting in the same boat… i.e. all were hypothetically seen prostitutes anyway – hired by the same power: MONEY & GREED.
Salah and Nurheddin were laughing like kids when it had been on TV. I do not like politics (and fleas) anyway so I did not say anything. It is better to pretend to be blond… i.e. I prefer to seem stupid. Ummi behaved the same way, she also thought it to be very childish.
That was showing their level of what exactly? Stupidity? Those two were really stupid to be upset of each other. Such a primitive way to say things like that and LIVE on TV! Imagine! The end of the song was that the Libyans were demonstrating in front of the Saudi Embassy and (of course they were paid to demonstrate, as usual) and then they kicked out the ambassador of Saudi Arabia – then they wanted to put fire on it. They asked their ambassador back to Libya. My opinion is ONLY that someone should have smashed their heads together; i.e. Ghadaffis and the Saudi leader! Maybe then their brains would have worked properly again… or would have been damaged forever - sorry, no big… I was very surprised, because normally nobody shows things like that on TV – it is always censored, i.e. you see them all happily living after with boring and cheesy faces... I loved it that the Saudi told Ghadaffi really who he was! Nobody ever dared to do that. All were afraid of that man(?). Actually I think it would have been time to "lower down" certain humans so the country would have had some peace… yet some are really tough (to kill)… Yet to see it fm the other side: he was a poor thing, he did not trust anyone anymore not even himself! He must hate himself mostly. The result of that mistrust was that he had to change his quarter every two hours in order not to be killed… What a GREAT LIFE! Right?
