I am a working mom. Every single weekday – unless i’m on leave – I spend 8 hours of each weekday in the office, working! This is all by choice. I love being able to support myself. I love having money in my bank account. I love being able to get what I want, when I want, without thinking twice about it. I love buying stuff for my daughter and I enjoy that I am able to do so without […]
More often than not, I get asked how I maintain my daughter’s hair! Half the time i’m not quite sure how to answer this question without sounding a little confusing. So I’ve spent some time over the weekend to come up with a much easier way to explain how I do it. My daughter has got natural hair – 4c type.

As a mom with no village around to help me, I’ve come to understand fully what people mean when they say being […]

Tonight is one of those nights where I don’t have to stress about getting to work early because of work the next day. I am on leave tomorrow, so I had a couple of hours to kill before bedtime. I just spent those hours watching a movie called *As cool as I am*. This was just a random movie selection. I didn’t pay […]
More often than not, I use taxis to get around town and run errands. Heck I even use taxis to go to work on a daily(weekdays). This is both by choice and not so much by choice.
