I am very sleepy 😴 tonight ...I am very sorry have to take an early break 


12:35 am Break


Sun 2nd Ziqad 1442H

34°C/ 30°C mostly cloudy (Google) 

6:12 am Good Morning ! 

Fall asleep after midnight even after skipping dinner and supper .

Woke just minutes before sunrise (5:42 am ) 

Prayed 🛐 

Made tea ☕

Awesome mausam 👍


So the weather has been just like that all week . It is very cloudy with cool breeze sometimes very windy ...and by drive time everything changes ....sun comes out and it starts Bar be quing the city . 




I tried to enjoy this unusual phenomenon so I stayed awake or tried to till noon . But that caused strain on eyes and head , made it very difficult to read , recite and watch TV or mobile . 

Then on Friday we had Javed Nihari ...in the brunch and after that I have no idea what happened ? 

I have been trying desperately to get up ...have skipped a few meals as well ...the breathing and bowels movement was normal but there was no mucus movement at all and vision blurred . But just now after the first cup of tea ☕ I had to get up and spit ...😵

And clear the throat , the visions is also improving ...I skipped the morning Quran recital . I should have skipped this Sunday Blog as well and should have gone out for a long walk ....in this awesome mausam .


And talking of walk ...one of my evening walk buddies passed away last Sunday while I was having so much fun staying home . Many cases of AEFI ( adverse effects following immunization ) post Vaccination deaths were reported from the neighborhood . 

It has been over a year since the mosque shut down in Covid-19 Corona Pandemic lockdown when I stopped going for the evening prayers 

Don't even remember when was the last time I saw her on the go or in the market outside the mosque . We never communicated . She was divorced and lived with parents and later with brothers and their families in the family home . She seemed very self indulgent and a loner for the past three four  decades . Rarely did she visited our home after moving from Lahore . Sibling rivalry or social distancing with younger sister's ( Momani Jaan , Allah Maghfirat farmaay in ko jannat ul firdos main ala maqaam ata farmaay Aameen 🤲) 

In-laws could be the very reason behind walking pass by our home without ringing the bell . 

Anyways , with three of my neighborhood Angels 👼 and familiar faces on the evening walk gone in a year  , I wonder how to translate it in any term 😕

Mr and Mrs Saeed are also not looking very good ...and the builders mafia are not making it any easier for them . Don't understand the panic ...the hammer drill 👷‍♂️ was understandable but why the guitar 🎸 in the picture ? 

What's love got to do with it ? 


رَبَّنـا وَلَكَ الحَمْـدُ  

 “Rabbanaa wa la kal hamd, 

(Our Lord, and to You be the praise)



8:16 am it is a very quiet and peaceful Sunday morning ...koel is singing on our neem trees which has grown to much and has been order to be cut down by you know who . We also have a white tape ball in our over grown green grass . This is before the monsoon urban flooding , imagine what our rain forest would be like after the rain . 

I must visit the family graveyard soon before the monsoon urban flooding because it becames un walkable as many wild herbs and shrubs grow up after the rain helping the grave snatchers who burn those greens when they dry and desecrate the sanctity in the name of cleaning and make millions . 


8:30 am okay the first room door opened ....cooking mafia probably fall asleep 😴 after early fajr . 

Its my dearest younger sister's youngest's birthday ....I am still in mourning and besides worried too because whenever she celebrates and eats an expensive cake  they have to rush her to the hospital . And these days All Karachi ☠️ , the most dangerous city in the world, Hospitals has a Corona first Routine . Most of the people I heard about died trying to get an admission . And if the Prime Minister's health card Scheme gets a go ...All blood sucking private schools will be converted into private jets 🏥...sorry state of the art well equipped with latest equipment and foreign qualified Hospitals 🏨and clinics 🤘


WahKhanWah ! 


8:51 am Break ! 


10:57 am We had a long Nuclear Power Shutdown ...no idea why .... can't be something I said because I don't get such a reactive response these days . The weather change at drive time ( 10:10 am ) did get delayed most probably due to the Nuclear Power Shutdown ....so in future I guess people using the solar power to charge their Electric cars ...will also cloud removers or cloud barrier . 


Is there any point in waiting .

🤔


Final destination update : 

Remember the ghetto neighbors dig trenches blocking the water tanker ...then they half heartedly fixed it ...then we dig the counter trench and fixed it ....But still with all the caution and care and concern and delay ...the Water tanker still fell in the gutter ...it was extra heavy with 3000 gallons of water that had to be emptied on the street because there was not enough pipes to bring it down to our underground . The mighty unholy tanker mafia did not have a crane or even a rope to pull the tanker back ...so they did what the monster truck would have done ....A rescue tanker risked itself and entered from the other side of the alley over the builders rubbles and pushed the tanker . Not sure how much damage was done to the tyres and axels etc . 


But the tanker mafia is in high spirits and don't mind damaging two more tankers . So after two days delay we had water for the weekend and specially today ...it's not only the Sunday but a birthday as well ....I haven't had water on this day for the past couple of years .....


Getting used to the post Covid-19 Corona Pandemic Culture is indeed difficult but I knew we will get there someday 👿



Okay it's midday I need a break because I have had the last plate of last sunday's mutton Pulao with leftover Nihari and few other additives ...for brunch a little while ago soon after the Nuclear Power was restored .


Also I need to know what the cooking mafia is up to for lunch and dinner . And if there are any Chaapa expected or intimated . 


The weather is at a twilight ...it could go either way..so we have icecream for heatwave , mangoes before the sunshine after the rain and shankbone meat for Nihari during the rain . Can't take risk of catching cold in this Covid-19 Corona Pandemic Culture . 


And there goes the cooking mafia ...I hear the sound of white chickpea for choley ...so rain or shine ...we are going to have the choley for tea ....or Anda choley for breakfast tomorrow . 



Do I still need to go out and check for updates 😁


12:20 pm Break ! 


1:26 pm Praiseth the Lord All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏 ,




After over three decades I used the manual lawn mower over the grass ...we haven't had this much grass since saein Zardari was ousted a decade ago ...how time flies here is just amazing ...


Anyways the white chickpeas are soaked in soda water and will be cooked soon ...while gram daal channa is cooked for lunch and ready to eat ....


Okay then it's time for the Zuhr prayer with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi


May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!



اللہ پاک میرے پیارے والدین ، ​​پاپا

 اور امی پر رحم فرمائے ، اور ان کو اللہ تعالی کی رحمت نصیب ہو ، اور ان کی روح کوجنت میں آرام نصیب ہو ۔  آمین!


1:36 pm Break ! 


3:20 pm yes we had lunch and the Sunday Facebook Meetup . Ok












And now the research ...


Difference between Choley and Channa : 


To understand the difference between the chholey چھولے

And Chana چنا

You first have to understand 

Legume ...پھلی


And Chickpea 


There are various types of legumes and there are various types of chickpeas . 


It is better to check the images and see which one or ones do you recognize . 


The best way to get the bottoms is to reverse the cycle of baisan which is used in making pakoras ...baisan or the gram flour which is very yellow in color will on reverse cycle turn into Chana 

چنا

While the hummus on reversal process will turn into chholey چھولے


Simple made easy 👌👍😉


4:19 pm Break ! 





This morning I learned about fake vaccine certificates so I searched on Google and look what found ....


Coronavirus

Fake Covid vaccine and test certificate market is growing, researchers say

A hidden pandemic market advertising fake vaccine and test certificates for as little as £25 has grown exponentially, with more than 1,200 vendors in the UK and worldwide, researchers have found.


After UK ministers announced the return of overseas holidays – with travellers required to show proof of negative tests, and vaccine passports on the horizon – the Guardian has also learned that anti-vaxxers and people arriving in Britain from poorer nations make up a significant number of those buying forged pandemic paraphernalia.



Okay the cooking mafia has warmed me that she is to resume cooking ...so I better leave the room before it gets hotter ...


The azan have started so I take a break for prayer 🛐 with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi


May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!



اللہ پاک میرے پیارے والدین ، ​​پاپا

 اور امی پر رحم فرمائے ، اور ان کو اللہ تعالی کی رحمت نصیب ہو ، اور ان کی روح کوجنت میں آرام نصیب ہو ۔  آمین!


5:32 pm Break !

Good Evening ! 












Some act without thinking ....how in the world could I consume so much legumes in just one day and especially on Sunday when I am desperately trying to keep calm and cool and not to sleep 😴 .and here she tries to feed too much carbs so I may have a food coma 🤪


It was a Budget week . 

And as expected we got a very silly budget . 

It is a deficit budget and the deficit is just too much . So unless the friendly monarchies of the world have agreed to return the stolen money and kill the absconders of law , the development projects worth billions of rupees and the Sindh grants and Karachi☠️ development fund seems like a joke with the democracy . Sindh especially should be told to reduce it's expenses or generate funds itself . Let them beg , steal or tax and face the wrath . 


Fall asleep 😴 


Door knock knock wakes me up . Foodpanda 🐼 brought fried Kabab and fried Paratha...




Falling asleep again 😴 


10:58 pm 


11:48 pm 


3:29 am first woke up at 1:30 am all sweating because of Nuclear Power Shutdown ... Nuclear Power returned at 2:00 am ..

Fall asleep 😴 again but woke up at 3:00 am to pray 🛐 Isha with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi 


May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!



اللہ پاک میرے پیارے والدین ، ​​پاپا

 اور امی پر رحم فرمائے ، اور ان کو اللہ تعالی کی رحمت نصیب ہو ، اور ان کی روح کوجنت میں آرام نصیب ہو ۔  آمین!

China

Gas pipe explosion kills 12 in central Chinese city, CCTV reports

Our ghetto neighbors slaughtered goat or goats yesterday evening and gave a bag of the meat to the heavily armed guard they probably believed my final destination update 😂.

Chote chote bachon walon ko no interest in our games 👹



So while I was sleeping  the God All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏 , sent down a new Shepard to keep the Arabs United ...

Born and raised in Haifa, the son of immigrants from the United States, Bennett served in the Sayeret Matkal and Maglan special forces units of the Israel Defense Forces, commanding many combat operations, and subsequently became a software entrepreneur. In 1999, he co-founded and co-owned the US company Cyota, operating in the anti-fraud space, focused on online banking fraud, e-commerce fraud, and phishing.[3] The company was sold in 2005 for $145 million. He has also served as CEO of Soluto, an Israeli cloud computing service, sold in 2013 for a reported $100–130 million.[4]

He entered politics in 2006, serving as Chief of Staff for Benjamin Netanyahu until 2008. In 2011, together with Ayelet Shaked, he co-founded the My Israel extra-parliamentary movement.[5] In 2012, Bennett was elected as the party leader of The Jewish Home. In the 2013 Knesset elections, the first contested by The Jewish Home under Bennett's leadership, the party won 12 seats out of 120.[6] He served under Prime Minister Netanyahu as Minister of Economy and Religious Services from 2013 to 2015 and as Minister of Education from 2015 to 2019. In December 2018, Bennett defected from The Jewish Home to form the New Right.[7]

On 2 June 2021, Bennett agreed to a rotation government with Yair Lapid, whereby Bennett would serve as Israel's prime minister until 2023, after which Lapid would assume the role until 2025.[8] Bennett was sworn in on 13 June 2021. He is the second prime minister of Israel (after Netanyahu) who was born after the establishment of the Israeli state.

So now the question is .....is Bibi Netanyahu out for good or is he taking a vacations 




Anyways , I guess my time is up I missed two most important events of the week the G7 Summit and the PSL6 come back ...as well as firdos Ashiq awan getting the attention of twitterville by slapping Qadir Mandokhel the newly elected MNA from Karachi ☠️ the most dangerous and unliveable city in the world . 

Ya Allah wazir at baldiat Sindh ki bhi kuch aisi hi beyzti kharab Kara dey Amen 🙏



5:14 am okay so first I had a bath and then I prayed 🛐 with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi


May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!



اللہ پاک میرے پیارے والدین ، ​​پاپا

 اور امی پر رحم فرمائے ، اور ان کو اللہ تعالی کی رحمت نصیب ہو ، اور ان کی روح کوجنت میں آرام نصیب ہو ۔  آمین!


As promised I have replaced the French translation of the prayer with Urdu translation . Nobody objected or commented about it so I guess the translation is okay . 


I did not watch any movies this week ...the television soaps are more than enough ...besides I was too sleepy with eyes and vision blurred so all the time I thought how to do the Khatam e Quran and I did it on Thursday ...and now I am at the fifth para of the third Quran for the blessings at my dearly departed Ammi ( May her soul rest in peace in jannah Amen 🙏) Anniversary fateha in two weeks ...after I finish the 3rd Khatam e Quran next week or this week ..I will start the first for Papa ( May his soul rest in peace in jannah Amen 🙏)  in four weeks according to  the lunar calender. 


Skipped this morning recite because I wanted to relax the eyes ...you won't believe this right now all my sleepiness is gone ....and the vision is much better . 


I am having the last cup of tea ☕ from the pot I made last night 

Also boiling the eggs to add to the haleem chholey mix plate for breakfast . 


6:12 am  okay the eggs were boiled ...new tea made ...had breakfast 

















Still no sign of sleep ..,

My hair's look different ....people on the other side of the wall are taking a second glance ....somebody even offered gown Wala Desi ghee ...no I did not die my hair ... actually I was using shampoo more than regular so the hairs were so grey ....yesterday for a photo shoot I applied vatika so they appear different ....I am sure they will be back to normal when I use the shampoo again  this afternoon . 


Okay then  it's time to go ...the song video I picked for the end today was reciprocated by YouTube suggestion

But it's been too long on mind so it's better that I stick with it ...we will have many other opportunities for the other song video unless Hania Amir comes up with a better video . 


Okay before I go I need to pray for my dear young cousin ...I usually don't do this for the living ...but actually his soul has already left for Seattle ...it's only his body that is trapped here in Jamshed town ....and I am sure the multiple visa must be expiring soon so it must be do or die Wala mamla ...

It's so good to know that at least in my nanika ( maternal )  

The sibling rivalry of the previous generation has lived on and is now Cousins race against time . 

So all the best to all the Easter bunnies . I have no favourites👽


PS : people who opposed US base will be on Fatf watch list  anyways ..no hard feelings 👻 and may eventually be rejected by immigration and state department 



Stay safe 


All the best 😍

God Bless America 🙏

Asi Majboori Teri Kyun Hai
Mujh Se Doori Teri Kyun Hai
Kuch Hai Tere Mere Dermiyaan
Phir Kyun Yeah Ho Gai Dooriyaan
Lafzooe Mein Simty Hain Hum Kia
Ansoow Piye Hum Ne Kuch Na Kaha
Itna Kuch Mein Ne Saha
Kase Yaar Manaava Mein
Kase Dil Behlavaan Mein
Bichra Yaar Bulaava Mein
Dholnaa…….
Kase Yaar Manaava Mein
Kase Dil Behlavaan Mein
Bichra Yaar Bulaava Mein
Ranjhna….Ranjhna….Ranjhna
Lakh Zamana Kahe
Dil Nhe Mane
Yaad Na Aye Tujhe Beete Zamane
Wakt Ne Kesa Kiya
Hum Pe Yaeh Sitam
Pyaar Kia Tha Mein Ne
Ho Ga Na Khatum
Door Hona Lazim Nhe
Kase Yaar Manaava Mein
Kase Dil Behlavaan Mein
Bichra Yaar Bulaava Mein
Dholnaa…….
Kase Yaar Manaava Mein
Kase Dil Behlavaan Mein
Bichra Yaar Bulaava Mein
Ranjhna….Ranjhna
Ranjhna….Ranjhna
