Hello, Siegfried

Siegfried our handsome blue British Shorthair cat.

Siegfried our handsome blue British Shorthair cat.

Abdulla and I both grew up in a house with cats, so when we moved in to our own place after getting married, we felt there was something missing – there was a cat-shaped hole in our hearts. We had been debating for a few months whether or not we should get a cat, or if we had the time with our long working hours, and just like that, we finally made the decision and adopted a cat in November! Read all about our experience adopting a cat, and questions you should ask shelter staff before you adopt, right after the jump.

  • One of my intentions for 2019 was to learn embroidery. 🧵 So, when I saw @salma.reads' Story of her finished hoop a week ago, it just felt like a sign to make my intention a reality. After watching numerous videos on YouTube, I finally marched to @barakat_kuwait to get my embroidery 'gear'. I'll be honest, I stood there for a good 30 minutes overwhelmed by the insane collection of thread and colours they have. How thick is the thread supposed to be? Where are the needles? Why are there what seems like 500 shades of each colour?!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I finally picked out my embroidery floss (check me out using embroidery "lingo!") and hoop, and sketched this design yesterday afternoon (which includes my initial in arabic س [pronounced 'seen' for my non-Arabic speaking friends]). I finished it this morning, and I'm quite pleased with how it turned out for someone who's never embroidered before!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's to more embroidery and hopefully looking back at my stitching and cringing at how far I've come since starting. 😅

  • Cairo, thank you for the last three days. I've seen family celebrate happiness together for the first time in over three years. I binged on amazing Egyptian food (shout out to whoever first created mombar, I love you), and I enjoyed your blue skies, cool winds, and all the inviting people I've come across. I'll be back soon, I promise.

  • Visiting my parents today, and my sister snapped this the second my mom said lunch would be an hour late. 😩 As demonstrated on my sweater, I need to constantly be fed.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Also, how cute is this weather-appropriate (and cruelty-free) fuzzy goodness that is my @ocho.shop sunnies chain? 🕶 And as @its.lailah says, "It's leopard, NOT tiger!"
  • The first time I was instructed to do this asana, I didn't exactly understand what on earth was happening. I kept thinking, "What do you mean you want me to twist the soles of my feet to face me? What. Do. You. Mean?!" Today, it's a moment that helps me ground my focus while I flow (and makes my [tired] ankles feel great!). So, basically, here's to not being a Judging Judy.

  • At the start of 2018, I set an intention to be more resilient and try to overcome my fears and anxieties. It was/is an uphill climb, but I'm stronger today than I was a year ago.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What really stood out to me last year, however, were the people in my life that stuck by while I battled with myself on a mental and emotional level - to them I say: I see you, and I love you. To those who couldn't: It isn't your fight, you aren't expected to understand, and your mental health matters too.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2019, my heart is open; let's do this! ✨

Now excuse me while I nestle myself into @yara.meraki's painting.
