setting my expectations right

From the start when we found out that we will be relocating to Kuwait. The first thing that I exclaimed was.... "But got WAR worrrr..." hmmm...that does not make me sound too good, isn't it? Anyways, after getting over the "war" bit, with a bit of frustrated explanation from hubby... I tried to brace myself for what's coming by googling about Life in Kuwait. Surprisingly, compared to Life in Abu Dhabi, or Life in Dubai, or Life in Oman, there's not much written/posted that could help a lot.

And of course, when I tell people where we will be relocated, there were mixed comments. Some even got excited about the interesting life that I would lead, and the travelling that I can do! But mind you... I have a toddler and a baby...how much travelling or going out can I do! Hubby prepared me well...I will most likely have to stay at home most of the time! And he made sure he found a nice apartment for us, so that I would not be too miserable staying at home. Unlike our last relocation to Turkmenistan, and Edinburgh!!!!

So, I have set my expectations right. Not much excitement in life. Not much socialising. Staying home most of the time, and trying not to turn too yellow and sallow as a housewife.... Wish me luck!!!!!
