Applause
Can I get a round of applause? Come on, we have been coming here every Thursday since January, we can do better than that. Ah, that is much better. I have realized I have been in my words, forgetting to raise my head and ask, “How are you doing?”
Overwhelmed by taxes, inflation, and the hustler being hustled? I know, I know. We have all been going through it. But there have been some good things despite it all. Breath, for example, health. Wealth? I wish. Japes notwithstanding there has been nothing to complain about, at least not for me, but this is not about me, it’s about you, remember?
So how have you been? Did you start school, or finish school, or do you prefer the school of hard knocks? Did you get a new job or get fired from a previous one, and say to hell with it all after remembering you are good at sewing and now you make sweaters for a living? Did you move, and find new love, did it blossom or did you blossom out of it? I want to hear it all.
And today I can also sit, eat my popcorn, and get entertained. I promise you won’t need to ask me twice for a proper round of applause. We all deserve it for making it this far in the year.

Huh! I have been here on Wednesdays mostly for a few years now. The thing is you are consistent with this blog otherwise I would have moved. Learned new tricks from this same blog, referred friends whom some say you have a way with words you make them laugh, hear the other side of a story teller. Kudos my guy. Merry Christmas to you.
Let me tell you Wakimuyu, you will need a glass of something strong and you be comfortable since you have offered me an opportunity to rant. I will just have it in bullet form so that I don’t take much of your time doing whatever you like. First, I am a writer wo does not even write, does it make sense? So, I am writing the goal I had set for this year and what I achieved so far 16 days out of 2024.
1. Exercise;1000 skips a day to reduce my tummy. -skipped for three separate days the whole year…increased my weight (this was not the intention of course and a lady does not reveal her weight I would have told you what I weighed and what I am weighing. Also, if ever I get lost and my family does put up a poster sharing my weight, I ain’t coming back).
2. Get a job. I did get a job alright, but I quit every morning, evening and during the day. (Forgive my lack of balls to quit-pun intended, and it is my first job and I have never done this before.)
3. Date around(Giveon-lost me) was my theme song. Dated like two guys. They say the easiest thing to get is a man, men were there alright but I worked my ass off to like these guys and put my bitchy and sarcastic side to rest. (maybe I was picking small girls trapped in men’s bodies-okay comments like these are the reason there is no rice for y’all unless it’s my funeral)
4. Graduate. When I feel sad, I remember that I am done with school for at least two years, now down to one coming next year. First big win for the lady. (Round of applause)
5. Alive. I can’t be writing this from the grave because I will take that Rest In Peace very seriously.
6. Start a blog or a podcast. This is my first public post (If you will allow me to share the spotlight with you)
7. Move out. (I did, 15 days ago. The only thing I have is a mattress, gas and utensils-a win is a win, right). Also I moved into a one bedroom house. I know some of you will come after me for having a big empty house rather than a small full house. My money, my rules. Also, I lived in a bedsitter for four years, allow me to gloat).
8. Learn how to drive-we try again next year.
9. Learn a foreign language-again we try next year.
