Awesome Weekend

So, this weekend I sought out to find some time to spend with family. I have been MIA from home for almost a month and a half and I really needed to get there. So Saturday, I packed up and took the 2 hour journey home. I can tell you right now that it was totally worth it or I could tell you at the end of the post. Take your pick.

I got to spend time with my parents. I really missed my mum. I am really grateful for the opportunity to talk and just be together. I loved the cooking and the laughter and jokes. Am also grateful for my brother, the inside jokes and football discussions. Totally loved it.

Am grateful for getting time to spend time with my nieces. The latest addition being Crystal who is 5 months old. The rest are Elizabeth, Diana and Mercy. I loved every bit of being with them. Their smiles are contagious and their laughter infectitious. Am so happy because I had missed them so much. I guess I really didn't know how much I had missed them until I saw them.

Anyway, as stated above, I had an awesome time and I think am already missing everyone all over again. Hope you enjoyed yours and wish you and me a great week ahead!

Friday Fancies: Cinco de Mayo

I have to start by saying that I have little or no idea of what this holiday is all about. All I know is that holidays are there to be celebrated. I am a super fan of culture and I think these outfits really speak for themselves. They look kinda African and thats why I loved picking them out. For those who are actually celebrating Cinco de Mayo, I wish you fun, fun and more fun. Get high, dance and laugh a lot. Linking up with {av} at long distance loving for Friday Fancies.

Hey, come by tomorrow for some very interesting Friday Fancies.

Crying..and feeling like a failure

Oh, Hi there
Hope you doing fine.
There'z a thing that I have been doing a lot lately and am so afraid to talk about,
Would you care to listen?

So, I know for most of us bloggers, our blogs represent an avenue for us to share our feelings and emotions and all that is going on in our lives. But, have you ever gone through something and you are totally clueless on how to share it with anyone. That's the way I kinda feel right now. Am hoping by the end of this post, I will be feeling a little better and not too ashamed of having shared my secret with y'all.

Lets talk about crying for a while. You know when you get to a point in life where you definitely feel like everything and everyone should give you a break? I think I need one. I dont know whats wrong with me or whether there'z anything wrong with me to begin with but I have been crying. A lot, A hell of a lot. Fortunately, I live alone. That gives me the privilege of not having to cry quietly. I cry loud, I sob and tear up and sneeze and roll in my bed and just cry. Believe me, its not a pretty scene. {The PMS is not helping either}. My emotions are all over the place.

Now lets get a bit dark. The reason I have been crying so bad is [I feel like a failure}. "What? Are you Crazy? Girl, you gotta get serious!" I know, I know thats what you might say to me and I have said it to myself several times but I had to tell someone. You are not lucky my readers because I chose to share this with you.Lets get this point straight, am 25, I kind of hate my job and yes I totally want a new job. The pay in this one isn't meeting my needs and I think its boring. Yea, that's the number one reason for feeling so stupid and like a failure.

Now, that you catch my drift, I would love to say that av given up on myself but that would not be true. Even when am crying, when am sobbing like crazy, I know that there is hope. I know that there is a perfect job for me out there. All I have to do is open my eyes. I believe that things are gonna get better {probably after the period is over.

There you have it my peeps, I feel like crap but I know that this too shall pass. Though I have no solution of how I will get through this, all I know is that I will. And I will be stronger and happier at the end of all this.

Friday Fancies: Date Night

Now that its Friday and me and my b/f are getting along so well, what would be a better idea than to go out on a date. Am sure I would enjoy it as it would give me a chance to dress up and get all dolled up. I love the color of this dress and the shape and everything about it. I think its totally sexy and am sure he would think so too. Linking up with {av} at  long distance loving as usual for Friday Fancies.

Enjoy the weekend my loves.

What am Loving today

Its midweek already and that means that the countdown to the weekend is on. Today, instead of pinning some beautiful Pinterest finds, I decided to just write about the things that are making me happy this week. I know I have said this in many other posts but I just have to say it again. Sometime, it is just awesome to sit down and look for things that are making you smile, making you laugh or just keeping you peaceful.
So without further ado, these are the things that am loving right now:

1. Am loving the rains. I got rained on yesterday and I know I should be sad but am appreciating the change in weather. Its good fro me but it is even better for the farmers who are planting right now all around Kenya.

2. Am loving that am taking my driving test tomorrow and I know am gonna do very well. I always wanted to learn driving and now I have. Funny enough, I love. Cant wait to have my car and drive it. I love that its been so much fun.

3. Am loving the time we've been spending with my b/f. Watching soccer, laughing, watching movies, cooking and just fooling around. Am loving that we miss each other when we are apart. Am loving that we are enjoying each other so much more.

4. Am loving time spent with my best friend. I love understanding one another and sharing things that we could not share with anyone else.

5. Am loving that the stats on my blog have gone up noticeably over the recent past. I love it when people read random things I write. I appreciate you my readers.

6. Am loving my life in general right now. Am loving how I am capable of soothing myself when things don't go as expected. Am loving how I easily get to see the good in everything.

7. Am loving ME. Just being Millie, everything about me.

8. Am loving this quote;

Friday Fancies: Primped for a Picnic

I love the sunshine. I love the way it shines on green grass and makes it look so beautiful. No wonder, I love picnics. Just laying a mat on the grass and enjoying the sun and the beauty of nature. I would totally be up for a picnic right now since the weather looks so fine. The outfit I chose for this week's Friday Fancies totally tickles my heart and makes me wanna go shopping right now. Linking up with {av} at long distance loving and hope you enjoy!

Of Busy days, Changing Moods and Sleepy Evenings

Thursday:

Oh my, where do I start?
Do I start with waking up at 7.30? (too early according to me)
Or should I just start with spending the whole day moving around with b/f trying to organize a new business?
Or should I start with cooking, feeling sleepy and changing moods?
Ok, now you know what I want to write about.

Today I woke up at around 7.30 which I believe is too early, I like to sleep in. Did some work up until 11 and I was a little bored. But a few hugs and kisses later, I was feeling all better.

Next, b/f and his dad are starting a new business next month and am offering a little bit  lots of help and we had to meet with some advisers today. Talked a lot and laughed a lot too. I really enjoyed the meetings and I can say am actually very well informed about this business. Then went to meet with b/f's dad and I can only say am delighted that we get along so well. He is a good man, definitely thankful for him.

Oh, now, am just sitted here on the bed, writing this post, feeling all so sleepy. Am so tired and I am very very sleepy. I am actually dozing off but I tried and updated you on whats going on. Hope you enjoyed your day and see you soon my lovelies!
Kisses!

Oh my, I forgot to tell you about my constantly changing moods. Oh God, am worried. Am smiley and all excited this minute and in 2 minutes, am sad and all teary. Yesterday, I almost cried at my driving lesson. The teachers were all complicated and telling me stuff and trying to convince me that am gonna fail my driving test next week. But anyway, am over that and am sure I will do excellently in that test. If anyone has a solution to fluctuating moods, please help me lovelies.
Ok, bye now!
