Looking 4 Motivation

In an effort to get motivated to write in this blog on a regular basis I'm gonna try something I haven't done in the two years that I've been writing this blog. I want to know what you would like me to write about. I know, I know. If you've been reading my blog then you will know that I really don't give a rat's "you-know-what" about what people want to read...it's my experience and I'm sticking to it. LOL. And, I know this puts me at risk for getting trolls and creeps. Gawd I hate people who hide behind a computer screen. It's cowardice at it's worst. To paint a clear picture I would have to say that less than about 2% are trolls and creeps so I've decided to put it out there. Is there something you'd like to know about my life in Saudi Arabia? Do you want my opinion on an aspect of life in the Kingdom? How is expat life in Saudi Arabia? What would you like to have me write about? You let me know.

You can pose your questions on the comments for this post or you can email me at: blackchickinsaudi@yahoo.com

Do you have any thoughts about the schools for expat kids? Just curious- I know people who have taught and people who went to Saudi schools and had impressions of the expat schools, but never hear about it from the other side. I know you don't have kids there, but if you have seen/heard anything, I would be curious! :)

I guess the other thing I would be curious to hear about is for you to look at specific things and your impression when you first came to KSA (1-6 months) and now. ie, food, shopping, malls, weather, driving, maids/etc, water, desert, women/men relationships, etc.

Thanks! :)

Give me a chance to read your blog and if I still have unanswered questions, I will pose them.

@Aritul...Give you a chance? Who's taken away your chance? This is for people who have read my blog and for people who have questions. If you didn't have a question there was no reason for you to respond. Especially with that smart ass comment.

I would like to see more photos of life in the kingdom and/or the compound. Also, I'd like to hear about celebrating American/western holidays while you're there. Thanksgiving is coming up and would love to hear your thoughts and feelings. Do you miss your family, turkey, pumpkin pie ect.

@Janice...Good idea. I think I'll tap into that one since it is timely with Thanksgiving just around the corner. I have to be careful when taking pictures around here because there are a lot of places in which you can not take pictures and it makes some people kinda antsy. However, I did go to Shaybah this past weekend and got some great desert shots, which I will be sharing online within the next day or two.
