My Sunday Photo Week 7 No more Sundays

My Sunday is your Monday and your Sunday is my Friday.

Confused? I am. The weekends here are Friday and Saturday, but with Friday being the religious day. The Middle East used to have their weekends Thursday and Friday but it meant they only had 3 business days per week with the rest of the world so Fridays being the religious day are quieter with shorter opening hours and Saturday is just a nightmare as that is the day, the world and their mother go shopping.

My Sunday photo therefore no longer sums up the week, it describes the week ahead.

We've been in our new home for nearly 3 weeks and our first visitors from the UK arrive tomorrow night. I AM SO EXCITED. Today was spent cleaning, food shopping and ironing. Pretty much the same as my sundays when the children were still at home and I had a job.

Hubby is really enjoying going to work on a sunday, it's the one day of the week he can reply to emails and catch up with planning with constant interruption from the rest of the business world.

    1. If I'm bored I'll iron or when the pile gets too high, otherwise its hung on a coat hanger to dry
