Day 12
#onedailypositive #bright #FMSPHOTOADAY#go #snaphappybritmums #Project365 tough one today, it's been cloudy, windy and grey in Dubai today. I can't work miracles but I'm fairly nifty with a bottle of acid, although I had a major melt down trying to get my rubber gloves off.
One Bright clean bathroom, ready to Go when our visas materialise. Today's positive is taking things slowly is far more productive.
Day 13
#onedailypositive #luckynumber #FMSPHOTOADAY #landscape #snaphappybritmums#Project365 somewhere between Dubai and Oman in a visa flight this morning. We spent a total of 7 minutes in Oman having got off the plane on a bus walked through the terminal back on the bus and the same plane. On a positive note. Hubby has his work visa.

Day 15
#onedailypositive #old #FMSPHOTOADAY#walking #snaphappybritmums #Project365 old nail varnish, resting my feet after walking around Dubai Marina all morning. On a positive note I bought some lovely new shoes in the sales.
Day 16
#onedailypositive #nature #FMSPHOTOADAY #FamilyFun #snaphappybritmums #Project365 with my, not so little, boy (he's 20 next Friday) exploring the rock pools on the beach near our house in #Dubai. Quality time before he flies back to the UK on Thursday and joins the army
Day 17
#onedailypositive #Jump with #FMSPHOTOADAY #Hibernot with #SnapHappyBritmums #project365 #BurjKhalifa Hubby and middle son have gone to #AtTheTop this morning. I've already been up there and the views are breath taking. At £20 a go, I've opted to stay at the bottom. This photo is a quick snap with my iPhone, and I did have to jump off a wall after taking the snap when security pointed out the sign saying 'do not climb on the walls' but I'm now getting the chance to play with my new Nikon camera, without the 'experts' help.
#Hiberot is a difficult one for me to take part in, as are any themes related to seasons, as although I'm now in the Northern Hemisphere and it is winter, it's like a UK summer and we are making the most of being out and about before the weather gets too hot and we hibernate with the air conditioning on full blast.
They may be 20 but they are still your babies, that never changes. The rock pools look great - did you find much?
ReplyDeleteBathroom looks clean, OH needs to regrout ours its past its best.
the bathroom is beyond the re grouting stage, although i think i took most of it out when cleaning.
DeleteWhat a funny experience to get a visa sorted, it amazes me how differently things are done in different countries, I'd much rather hop on a plane than face the postal service here.
ReplyDeleteFabulous pictures
which country do you live in Clare? have you ever tried the South African postal service? its none existent
DeleteLove the shot of the clouds, so clear!!
ReplyDeletethe planes windows were filthy which didn't help
DeleteThe visa flight sounds like an interesting one but obviously has to be done - love the clouds! Looks like you know how to bag some bargains too. Am liking your positives - I need to think more like that :)
ReplyDeletesomedays a positive just happens to be there others i have to search for it, which is good as it forces me to be cheerful
DeleteGlad to hear that things are gradually coming together for you all. Look forward to reading about you settling in your new house!
ReplyDeletethanks Sarah, new oven is delivered today
DeleteGlad the visa is sorted, I've not been to Dubai for 20 years, I don't think I'd recognise it now! #365
ReplyDeleteits changed massively since i was here last january, now the new tram system is open
DeleteGlad the visa is sorted, I've not been to Dubai for 20 years, I don't think I'd recognise it now! #365
ReplyDeleteOh rock pools, we had snow today, lol. Looking at positives is important. Glad to hear that the visa's sorted.
ReplyDeletewell the sorted visa turned out to be a lie, we are still waiting for the residency to come through
DeleteA visa flight?! Sounds interesting. Good luck for your son starting in the army, I hope his training goes well x
ReplyDeleteson leaves Dubai today :-(
DeleteGosh, it wil all be worth it in the end! That building sure is very high and I've no doubt the views are amazing as you say! Whoops to the wall climbing! ;) #365
ReplyDeleteit is stunning up there
DeleteFlying home to join the army, a proud and sad time as you see him go?
ReplyDeletetaking him to the airport this afternoon
DeleteMoving and visas are so complicated aren't they? We were in Oman airport at Christmas via Bangkok, it's such a teeny airport but I did get some nice duty free! Dubai is a place I've always wanted to visit! Popped over from Project 365!
ReplyDeleteplanning a proper trip to Oman in November with some South African friends we've met up with here
DeleteA flight to get a visa how interesting....I'm sure it will be worth it in the end x
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping i don't have to make another visa flight as this residency visa of hubbies is now 2 weeks old and i still have mine to do when his eventually gets here
DeleteSounds like things are improving now...and lovely to get a chance outdoors with your son at the rock pools before he left.
ReplyDeleteits funny how kids stop wanting to be with their mum in public, then reach a certain age where they then consider it cool to play in rock pools again
Deletea very positive way of looking at things - despite the Visa complications!!
ReplyDeletelove the clouds
thank you for linking up to Project 365 x
I suffered badly with depression when we moved to South Africa so this project is really keeping me motivated
