Dazzling

(7/7/25)

I barely slept last night. Something fell in the kitchen around 2 AM, and that was it. I tried my best to get back to sleep, but just couldn't. G woke up at her usual time (4 AM!) and came to see if I was OK. She made a cup of tea! :))

So the work part of the day began early with me seeing Amelia for a pedicure! I don't usually have them. She talked me into it. Then home with time to do more prep for the holiday. It was great to have a video call with my sisters. We chatted for over 90 minutes! Probably a record. And then I would have liked an afternoon nap, but there was too much to do, some of it outside.

We ventured out after the sun got of the car, taking the recycling with us. The first stop was Dubai Mall, where both my pictures are from. These spaces are within a minute of each other, but completely different, thanks to the lights. I love it! We made an attempt to dine in the newly found Spinneys, but the food looked so tired, so we ate at M&S.

The main reason for visiting this mall was for G to get a replacement Swatch, but the branch didn't have the style she wanted, so we raced over to Deira City Centre, which I have to say, was heaving. New Swatch secured, we then called in at Wafi to run a couple of errands. By this time, it was almost 10 PM, so I was more than glad to get home, but way too tired to do my blip.
