A marriage like mine

.Reading time 8 minutes.

Just woke up. I have for the last week tried to wake up before 0600hours which has had me wake up between 0445hrs and 0600hrs which is impressive. I’m having a cup of tea while catching up on updating the vlog. Have you noticed site changes? Now you can support my work by donating while I also work on a few exciting projects that I can’t wait to bring to you. Funny enough I am still excited about this year… the discomfort has really pushed me. It’s difficult though make no mistake.

August Bullet journal spread (free printable)

.Reading time 1 minute.

I woke up tired today, I actually almost forgot that I had to put this up. Its been a hectic night. I woke up with a start st 0300hrs partly because B had to go to hospital and check up on a patient and also because I woke up with a cramp…which promptly announced my time of the month. Read More

Musings on girlfriends

.Reading time 6 minutes.

Every time I see girlfriends meet up or do a bunch of things as I scroll through my Instagram feed, i experience a ka-feeling. I don’t know how to describe this feeling except to say that its a combination of awe with a bit of jealousy. Awe because well, the aspect of frienship fills my heart with so much joy and warmth. As a person who has experienced deep friendship, the way these relationships strengthen you and empower you can definitely not be paralleled. Jealousy because, how are y’all just a group of friends? This part has not been a reality for me…At lest not as far as girlfriends are concerned. Read More

Cuddles and shoulders…Difficult days

.Reading time 4 minutes.

The story of how I met or rather started being close with my best friend is actually interesting. If you really want the full scoop check out our blog. ( haha we used to blog). I think about it and can’t help but notice how we unknowingly had the same kind of interests and circumstances. If I was superstitious I would definitely say that we were meant to be… But I am not…also our path just showed me that it wasn’t predestined but rather effort and intention. (That is definitely a story for another day) I digress. Read More

Crippling fear of beginnings

June’s unboxing + Updates

.Reading time less than 1 minute.

In June,I took a break from creating to chill and create in other ways away from social media.This was a much needed break from posting twice a week for almost two months (rather since quarantine began) and I was mentally exhausted and needed to take a breather. Of course life was still going on and I picked a camera a couple of times to catch some of those moments.

Which is what I want to share today in this quick post.

Also did you catch this New Friday series? I will be sharing my adulting experinces every Friday this month. So be sure to catch that here on the blog.

A little catch up

.Reading time 3 minutes.

Welcome to July… I haven’t been saying hey in these streets for a bit. My mental space has been a yo-yo-ing mess and I haven’t been in the space to share much. I don’t want to say that I am back, but I am committing to chatting every week on here.
