The Inflential X factors

So...am here again in the office, early as usual (I blame pops for loving us too much)..and am TIRED!! Physically, mentally, emotionally tired...I think I need a day off but sadly I have not worked for that long to earn my days off....I had just written a whole post jana (emosh release) then when I was about to save it, the credo in my broadband got depleted or ishad( something the Nairobi chic would say, but not me LOL) *we were laughing about how peeps feel uptownish and urban when they spoil English*, I mean come off it, you would look classier if you spoke the Queens English without breaking a sweat!

So anyways I am still trying to figure out what my blogging persona is- should I go with the sarcastic flow or the the funny hilarious ones?? I think my post will be the judge of that...I had promised earlier that I would write about the infleuntial women in my life.....wait for it.waaait for it.......Here come nothing!
  • My moms( I tell you these terms I pick from Upper!! I prolly sound classier now) 
Ma is the woman I would like to be when I grow up and would not like to be at the same time...If there is one word to describe her I would go with beautiful, both in and out- You thought I was frank? well think again! this woman does not mince her word, she will tell you like it is whether is pleases you or not- something I have tended to pick up....But I go easy on the puppy doll eyed ones #justsaying. Now when my Ma was younger, prolly my age, she had a waist 25 and was the fashionista of her days (I wish I had a photo for the visual effects warrrrrrr) but she was also the toughest nut to crack at that *so I hope you now believe me when I say pops has the wickedest killer smile I have ever seen ((wink))

I hear some of my friends talk about how their Ma's are strict and I roll my eyes and release a loud HA! Just to let them know that they don't know what strict is all about...well Ma's profession kinda contributes to her being this way but her personality is the icing on the cake hehehehe.
Now in our household we have something we fondly call "Operation Fagias" (G.S.U. styro).. I know you are wondering what direction am about to take but brace yourselves muchachos this is going to be interesting!
Its always been a routine for my Ma to go to work in the morning having left instruction to the housy on what needed to be done (the beauty of being many girls- atleast for her)...so when we wake up hours after she left, the housy would spell out our roles with a gingerly grin on her mouth..these tasks were to be completed by close of business, when Ma would be coming back from work

Us being who we are , we would setti ourselves at the tele and assign roles for that time when Ma would show up. My small siz Wendy being Ma's darling would be the watch dog for when ma would arrive, my big sisters Shazy and Mevo were to take care of the dirty utensils in the kitchen *READ shove them under the sink for washing later when you know who would be up stairs*, me to straighten the vitambaz and bro to disembark and dismantle the DVD (Omera but do I say???) and we would be set..
so as not expected, ma shows up at 3pm and all hell breaks loose!!

All I see is the post elections scenario repeated all over again....flying hands, frantic panicking faces and the works...she is slowly approaching and the walah everything is in position when she comes in....I bet she has smelt the rat several times and we grin sheepishly "what you don't know will never kill you" MARK YOU.. we have had upto "Operation fagia 7"!!!!!! the higher the number the closer we were from being caught hehehehe.


I realize Ma is hogging much of my space and am already starting to be pre-occupied with designs of said suits we are to wear at the company's launch..(mard excitos) So I got to bounce...laters Muchachos
Other influential  X factors on another day :) Till next time :*

For old times sake :)

Juices flowing, fave playlist, Thursday that feels like a Friday and all awesome thoughts. I am making mighty milestones and I thank one God Almighty bana warrr I have come far :) Ok now back to the usual sarcastic me...A friend gave me a brilliant idea and I think I just know how to execute it ( Jose I wish you were here, one serious bitching session needed- like real soon, since you went to the UK you have become ooooo so very boring!!!! KIDDING) So I have had the privilege to have been in a girls' school for four long but very interesting years and truth be told I had some of my most incredible memories there. It was a roller coaster of hysteria mixed with just the right dose of  hormonal rages and plenty of Cabin fever scenarios :) :) As am writing the memories all come to light and  cheka like a stupid mama wondering why we ever made such a big deal of some things! (Jana we was just telling pops all the crazy "don't tell this shit" things we used to as kids and...

MOTHERHOOD 101- I am no expert!

So my fiance has been begging me to write something,anything! and I kept putting him off...the writing bug has not been around for a really long time and too much has happend in my life that I really did not have time to write. Its been two months since I have officially been back to work and its killing me! Mad respect to all mother's y'all! Now I know. Most of my peers have been sending me inboxes of late asking for advise here and there about motherhood and I feel really honored :) So in honor of that, I will document sneak peaks of my motherhood experiences the best way I know how (Darn! my writing mojo just went and dissapeared with the dogs....sigh!) a) Pregnancy I have to say this was the most beautiful part of motherhood for me and the most challenging. I vividly remember when I first got the results of my pregnancy test..FEAR,PANIC,HORROR were the words that were running through my head. I was barely out of Uni, with a boyfriend I had dated for about seven months,...

2012 hasbeen one EFFING Good Year!

I have not written on this blog for a whiiiiiiile...OK even that is an understatement. I have not had the juices flow in a long time and things have been kinda hectic on my end. As is my tradition, Its almost end of year and I have several things to document...It is that time of the year where I reflect, think about all the things that have happened in my life and sigh*2012 has been a pretty good year! So first things first... a) My Job Have you ever had a love/ hate relationship with your job? Well, lets just say am one of those people. My kinda job is fascinating, mind boggling even...the kind of processes that go through getting work out are intricate and it fascinates me and some people are pleasent to hang out with BUT others tho! Enough said. That said and done, I am now permanent and I thank God for the far he has brought me. Building my confidence in my ability to be the best at what I do. God has been great. b) My folks/ Family There is a phrase commonly used that I tot...
