Sunday is the beginning of the work week in the Middle East. I spent the day at the office, nothing of real significance. The usual conference calls with the proposal team. Sunday is quiet because the US is not working. Actually with the 8 hour difference in time the Middle East works two days before they hear from the US. Not that folks aren’t available, but if you want to have a meeting access is limited until late on Monday. Something to get used to and keep in mind as we move forward with the assignment.
Another dinner at the Souq Waqif, another grill, but this time I sampled the hammour. Hammour is a white fish common to the area. You can find it on every menu. It was nice to get out of the hotel for dinner.
The day has had its drama. My step father has had cancer for the last 18 months. It seems he is in his final moments. He is home with home hospice care, but he is having anxiety attacks and apparently has tried to get out of bed several times, but in his weak state needs help to stand. Unfortunately, I wasn’t there to support the family.
