Ramadaan Lessons

Whew!

It's been forever since I posted anything on here. I decided to take a mini break from blogs in general during Ramadaan and with some exceptions I was able to stick to that goal.

Insha'Allah everyone had a good Ramadaan. Mine was both interesting and informative. I found that I really like going to Taraweh prayers and having Iftar at the masjid. Doing so gave me time to get in some Quran reading and listening to lectures. Fasting wasn't too bad, as long as I got in a couple of cups of coffee at breakfast. Remembering to take ALL my meds at breakfast will insure my fast is not broken. Don't eat too much for Iftar, lol. Afterwork naps are good and help ya make it through the evening. Immune supressant drugs + fasting ='s Getting Really Sick.

All in all, it was good. I was again reminded that I'm not superwoman, and it's better to not take too much on (thanks, CE!). It's good to baby your immune system when you are fasting, and not start a new round of heavy duty meds during Ramadaan. It's good to take a second and think about your reply, rather than spit out the sarcastism. Losing your temper will cost you three things: embarassment, self castigation, and a day of fasting.
