Change is Afoot!

2024 started with some bangs, and I don’t just mean fireworks. The most notable bang for me so far is Katt Williams broke the internet with his tell-all interview on Club Shay Shay (and possibly some people’s careers). Yoh!!!!! That thing got me snapping my fingers all day (because with two boys under 5, it…

New Year, Same Me

Happy New Year! It’s 2024, I am still here and moving with life as it goes. I had hopes that the year would start out a certain way, but the things I was pushing for are yet to come to fruition. But I press on, because I know it will happen eventually. The month of…

Mid-Year Review

So, we’re halfway through the year and you are probably wondering, “Girl, where you been?” with some crazy side-eye trying to make me feel uncomfortable. Image: Courtesy Well, joke’s on you ‘cause side eyes look funny and besides, I don’t get a lot of people beating me in staring contests above the age of 4…

I’ll be home for Christmas 🎄

So, the year is coming to an end, and the wheels of life keep turning. My baby boy came, and we have been enjoying each other’s company; so much so that he doesn’t want to hang out with anyone else besides his dad. Oops! Don’t get me wrong, he is a cool kid: accepts people…

It’s Been a Long Day

What’s one thing that shook you to your core, and yet, somehow, you still had to find a way to keep moving? For me, it was the passing of my mother, barely two weeks into the new year. Mom was unwell. And then, she was gone. It wasn’t expected because she was about to be…

Parenting: One Year In

So my baby boy turned ONE recently. I am so excited for him and realising how much he has grown in the last 12 months! I mean, I remember quite clearly what we were doing the night before (packing yogurt) when I realised I was having contractions. Then I went ro rest, but the boy…

Working Mom…

That’s right! You read right. I am now a working mom! I thought I would stay-home, but life decided I need to be like that riveter chick and get on it! So I guess the biggest news for you is I got a job. Thanks. What only the moms will ask is, “How are you…

As the Whirlwind Continues…

So, it’s been a few months since my last post for one reason; I got a baby. Since then I have been putting off writing because I wasn’t sure what I would have to say, and if I would remember when I did have something to say. Today, however, is different. I decided to try,…

Home Stretch

So, home stretch. And no, I am not talking about the book by Velma Pollard which we did as a set book in high school. I am talking about the eviction notice I am giving my unborn child. Lord knows I am tired of feeling like a bipedal hippo.Anyhu, I already know the string of…

Getting Back in The Game

So, it’s been a minute since my last post, which was talking about the Dusit D2 attack in Westlands, Nairobi and how Kenyans rose to the occasion to help with food and blood donations and offering up prayers for the people who were trapped in the hotel and business complex. Since that time, what has…

Kenya Unbowed!

Kenya unbowed. That has been the trending phrase after a local newspaper went against the grain in choosing its headline following a 30+ hour terrorist attack in Nairobi’s Westlands area, on Tuesday, 15th January, 2019. I personally applaud Kenyans for speaking out against the use of gory images as the picture of what was going…

This Post is Intentional

Hey guys, it’s me again. I know. WTH? Where have you been? I have been… places. Some that were nice, some that weren’t, and others that were so grey, I still feel foggy. So, my last few posts, I talked quite a bit about getting married. What about BEING married? It’s a job and a…
