I woke up, said my prayers and made the bed. Then I did my exercises. I walked 4.1 miles and burnt 150 calories.
10:31 AM - I fed the cats food and fresh water.
10:34 AM - Coffee is brewing at the ...'s
10:50 AM - I have wiped down the toilets and it is coffee time in our home.
It is a nice sunny blog, enjoy.
3:16 PM - I arrived at school around noon. I went to the meeting room and there was nobody there from my group. I logged into the computer and realized I missed a meeting with a lady friend who wanted to do an interview. I asked my neighbour at school, what day it was, and she said, Friday. I was like shit! So I came home and called the lady. We were able to reschedule the meeting for - today.
While I was waiting for her, I did a vacuum of the downstairs. We had a short interview of about 6 minutes. She bought me a hot chocolate and drove me home. I had to pay rent which I did and now I know it is Friday.
3:29 PM - I stripped the bed and made it fresh.
3:48 PM - I wiped down the toilet this morning thinking it was Thursday. Friday is the day I really clean the bathroom. Today being Friday, I scrubbed the tub, cleaned the toilet, washed the sink, wiped the counter and mopped the floor. I must admit that, since I started wiping down the toilet Mon-Thur, the bathroom is cleaner and much easier to clean. What an accomplishment.
I could not have done it without you blog.
6:18 PM I went and met my conversation partner, we talked about HIV/AIDs. The young lady asked me if I could her mentor for life?...I will do it. The day is done. I am visiting with my friend Glen.
9:12 PM - I took my friend to the bus stop and now I feel like a bath. Good night blog.

Then I knew I did not want to do laundry on the week ends. I caught up though. The yell let me know that I was really determined to get caught up on laundry. Now it reminds me to make sure I do laundry weekly because otherwise there will be a pile up...on and on it goes.

Blog,
5:13 PM I went to school early and studied for my class quiz. The quiz was tough and I cannot wait to see the results. I believe I did better than the first class quiz. Or at least I felt better prepared. I have been home for a while. The kitchen is very clean. That is an accomplishment.
Last week in class we were divided into groups to do our next project. I have offered to have a room ready for our meetings. At the end we are going to do a presentation in class as well as review each other. Our group has 4 people. We were assigned a project to do jointly. I hope we do well. It is a very wet day. Sometimes snowing, sometimes raining. We thank the Creator for everything.

Today in my dreams I saw a long silver key.
I had a dream that my beloved husband and I were going on a tour and he got a place in the extraordinary bus and I did not. Then I realized that even if I got a seat, I had not brought my ticket with me ):
About 10:14 AM, I received a phone call from Daktari in the UK. We had poor connection.
12:44 PM - I made the bed.
12:46 PM - I fed the cats food and fresh water.
1:21 PM - I walked on the elliptical machine for half hour. I walked 4.1 miles and burnt 133 calories.
1:28 PM - While coffee was brewing, I cleared the counters in the kitchen and soaked some new dishes.
1:32 PM - I wiped down the toilet which I neglected to do yesterday. This is a chore that must be done five days a week on all weekdays.
1:42 PM - coffee is served, I have cleaned out the kitty litter and wiped the kitchen counters. Time to enjoy the coffee. I will back soon blog. Good afternoon.
6:58 PM. We had a good day. We thank the Lord. This evening I cooked the rice and the vegetables which my beloved husband had chopped. I cleared the kitchen sink and he cooked the steak. Dinner is almost ready.
It is so windy outside. Lord have mercy.

Still doing my routine. I woke up and made the bed. I did my exercises. I walked 3.6 miles in 1/2 hour and burnt 65 calories. I have fed the cats food and fresh water.
12:04 PM. Good afternoon blog. I have cleared the kitchen, wiped the counters and stove top and I am sipping my coffee as I get ready to leave you until laterz. Good day dear.
2:30 PM It was awesome being back to class after reading break of which I read. That is why I could follow the teacher closer because I read. To think that I wanted to quit...I don't know what I was thinking. It is only the other day I learned that no one can say they have failed, if they have not tried.
4:32 PM. It is raining in the city. I managed to check mail at the post office, do some business down town and shopped - all with the rain falling down. My inspiration was my brother Glen and a good friend was in the rain begging. I gave him $5. He has a place to sleep and everything and that is not all that life needs. He has to get out there for food. He is on disability pension and it is not enough to survive on, for a month. And I went about my won business, humbled.

We went to bed at 3:00 AM just enjoying the early Valentine vibes. Happy Valentine's day.
I have fed the cats food and fresh water.
12:04 PM. Good afternoon blog. I stripped the bed and made it afresh. As I was making the bed I remembered advice from an auntie who is a Reverend. She said to take care of the husband as he is a gift from God. I understand.

2:41 PM. I scrubbed the bath tub, cleaned the toilet and the bathroom counter and sink got cleaned. I cleaned the bathroom floor. It turns out through observation that Friday is the day to do a general cleaning. I had neglected the kitchen floor. I gave it a sweep and mopped it. Life is good.
2:50 PM. I have a load of laundry going. It appears Friday is laundry day. Yay.
3:11 PM. Music.
3:23 PM. The washed clothes are now in the drier. Thank you Creator for conveniences.

I was sick in the early morning puking my guts out. I have no idea why.
The caretaker of the building was here early morning fixing the smoke detector. It got broken somehow.
I have fed the cats food and fresh water.
10:42 AM. The guy has finished reinstalling the smoke detector. He showed us where to pull when the smoke detector won't go off! Coffee is brewing. My beloved husband does not want coffee this morning.
I did say my prayers at one point.
11:22 AM. I have been on the exercise machine. Even though I had a rough night, I walked 3.8 miles and burnt 107 calories.
11:30 AM. My duty of wiping down the toilet has been done. I am so proud of myself for doing this. My friend Kecia told me that she did this every day as she had men in the house. It is a great practice.
11:56 AM. I have cleared the sink (accomplishment), I wiped the counters and stove top, filled and started the dish washer.
I am starting to think that how we start the day dictates how the day is going to run.

I have woken up, said my prayers, spent time on the social media and network. I have fed the cat food and fresh water. I have wiped down the toilet from top to bottom. My beloved husband is still sleeping. I like it when he sleeps in because that means he is tired and his body needs rest.

It is a new week blogger.
I woke up, said my prayers, made the bed, fed the cats and did a work out on my exercise machine. I walked 4.7 miles and burnt 100 calories.
Coffee is brewing at the ...'s.
11:40 AM. I have wiped down the toilet and cleaned up the tub.
It is coffee time here.

12:44 PM. Been to one of the stores downstairs to get change for laundry. It takes two loonies (2 dollars) to wash and two loonies to dry. Sometimes one needs to dry for an extra two loonies. It depends of how many clothes are in a machine. I have two loads of laundry going. They are on the wash cycle. I should really go to the bank and get a whole load of loonies. I feel awesome today and thank the Creator for it.
1:05 PM. The kitchen is looking good. I have cleared the sink and wiped down the counters even though they did not need wiping. I am getting used to a certain routine. This is such an improvement in the home front. The writing really helps me to go through the chores. I used to write on ...'s wiki and it got tampered with. I am very happy that blogger is helping me at the moment.
While waiting for the laundry I was doing social media networking or whatever they call facebook. I was on chat with a Reverend that made me laugh. Laughter is the best medicine and Jesus of course.
1:26 PM. The clothes are in the dryer.
2:07 PM. Tidied my desk to the best of my knowledge.
2:40 PM. I had to do another cycle of drying because, even though I did two separate loads of laundry so that the can dry, they did not all dry. I am complaining and at the same saying to God, "Thank you for showing me what a laundry machine looks like...it was not even in the fragment of my imagination when I left Kenya - 1996, July. Lord, you recall how I was stunned when I read that the Gage Residence in University of British Columbia (UBC), had laundry machines. There is a washer and there is a drier. Before 1996, I washed clothes by hand from before age eight. So Lord, I would rather have the ways things are. ...Amen."
4:07 PM. The clothes are now folded and put away. I think it is always best to fold and put the clothes away as soon as laundry is done, as possible.
4:53 PM. I have been out and not for long when I realized most places are closed for the day. It is Family Day. I did manage to get groceries. Have a good rest of the day Blog. We chat laterz. Thank you Universe of Universes.

11:44 AM
Praise the Lord for another day. Today I prayed, stripped the bed and made it a new. I did my exercise. I walked 4.1 miles in 1/2 hour and burnt 151 calories. I have fed the cats food and fresh water. My dream had a black kitten in it. I could have said it was ou cat Muthoni and then, Muthoni was in the dream too.
11:51 AM It is coffee time at the ...'s.
12:23 PM I got a phone call from my mum and I spoke with Auntie Jane and dad. They sounded in high spirits. Mum was wondering why we were drinking coffee this late and I told her we drink coffee once a day. It really lifts the heart to hear from home. Dad spoke with my beloved husband and it is so awesome to hear.
12:41 PM I have scrubbed the bath tub, thoroughly cleaned the toilet, cleaned the sink and washed the bathroom floor. That is an accomplishment for which I am grateful to the Creator.
2:52 PM. My duties as Cultural Exchange Program Volunteer have been done for the week. My conversation partner and I had a wonderful discussion. After time was up I took her to the bus stop. She told me that she has never spoken with a black person before me. I told her I had never spoken to somebody from South Korea. I did some paper work down town and checked the mail. Then I had to pee so bad and I came home to a clean wash room. Yay!
6:59 PM Just got back from buying herbs and other groceries. I am snacking on beef jerky. My beloved husband is taking a nap. We are at peace. The cats walking around. God is good. What else does a woman want?
7:35 PM Cleared the kitchen sink.
8:26 PM Dinner is ready, I have woken up my beloved husband. It was an excellent week blog. See you soon.

11:01 AM
I had a good sleep. Woke up, made the bed and said my prayers. I did a workout in which I walked 4.2 miles and burnt 156 calories. I have fed the cats food and fresh water and coffee if brewing at the ...'s.
11:34 AM Coffee is ready. I emptied the kitchen sink and wiped down the stove top and the counters. I could get used to this kind of initiative and self discipline. I am grateful to the Creator for a healthy outlook in life. I am so aware that my lack of doing it what makes the home untidy and so I am doing as that keeps the home in order. Moving forward.
11:52 AM I am really becoming awesome in wiping down the toilet daily. Yay! I have done that and bagged all the garbage in the home and on my way out I will take the garbage out. With that, good morning wiki, we chat laterz.
5:28 PM Finished class and have been working of my assignment due the 7th, this Friday. I did it three times. Third one is the charm. I have given it my all and I have submitted the paper for marking. My part is done and I have learned a lot about culture and cultural patterns. I was able to see the lady at the writing desk help and she said that I have to learn, to put comma's in my work. It is funny, because when I was doing Toastmasters ( world leader in communication and leadership development), they told me to learn to pause. I write and talk too fast. I have a lot to say.
6:40 PM. I have shopped and put away the groceries. I took the garbage out as I had no time this morning. Time to relax a bit.
7:32 PM I called my friend DM in the States and while we were on the phone, I was able to chop the meat up. Getting used to multi-tasking.
8:24 PM. Dinner is ready. I made a stew with red onion, red pepper, potatoes, beef, corn, Italian seasoning, garlic salt and crushed garlic. I forgot to put cayenne pepper. We thank the Creator.

It is coffee time at the ...'s.
I woke up, said my prayers, made the bed. I walked on the elliptical machine for 1/2 hour. I walked 4.5 miles and burnt 139 calories. I made coffee and fed the cats food and fresh water. I wiped down the toilet and rinsed the bathtub. Why have a sparkling toilet with a dirty tub? The kitchen sink is empty.
Good morning blog, we are going to watch The Daily Show with Jon Stewart as well as The Colbert Report. Shows of the 4th of Feb 2014
6:31 PM I just came back from studying at the library. I went grocery shopping and cleaned the kitty litter which I neglected to do yesterday. I must remain focussed.
7:23 PM Dinner is ready. I grilled some steaks, made rice, beans with onion and mushrooms with onions. Time to be grateful and eat. May the Lord provide for those that have nothing to eat. Amen.
9:54 PM I finished studying for tonight and did the on line quiz. First quiz I had 50%, caught me unaware. Next quiz I was better prepared and got 86%. I cannot wait to see what I score on this one. I think I missed I question. That will teach me for next time. I can now concentrate on my major assignment due on Friday 7, Feb, 2014. They sure keep us busy in campus, which is a good thing. Goodnight Blog, wi chat tomorrow.

I woke up around 11:30 AM to a phone call from my family. We just finished talking. They always encourage me to carry on. I told my sister in law how I am cleaning the toilet daily and she said she will start doing that. My niece is going to high school tomorrow. She called to say goodbye. I am very encouraged by the phone call. Family is everything. God bless them and keep them. The told me to give my beloved husband a hug, and he got it.

On the weekend I washed all the clothes and cleaned up the bedroom, stripped the made and remade it.
I woke up and said my prayers. I started wiping the toilet down in the mornings from top to bottom. I was taught that many years by my friend Credible Pawfia Hulk years ago and it did not take root until yesterday. I find it easy to do now like I did this morning.
10:03 AM The kitchen sink is emptied and counters wiped down by none other than Mwa. I fed the cats food and fresh water. All these things make the world go round. The shine is shining here on Vancouver Island. It is such a blessings.
10:47 AM I made the bed and I was on the elliptical machine for half hour. It was a mild exercise of which I managed to walk 4.3 miles and burnt 87 calories.
Good morning blog :)
4:11 PM. I have been to class and really enjoyed it. I scored 18/21 in the last quiz. That is so awesome God. And to think I wanted to quit. We learned one can actually control reality in life using language. Thinking through language.
I took my work to a tutor and he said I was doing well. He had some suggestions like when the prof asks for a paragraph per topic, she does not mean two paragraphs...I have done all the modifications, I even talked to the prof about it. Later this week before the submission date I will see another tutor and only then will I submit the work. This tutors are great, I should have used them in History and I wasn't all there. Haidhuru, I passed. Coz God never sleeps. And right now, I am present Praise the Lord.
5:29 PM I have been home from campus, shopped for dinner, did a vacuum cleaning.
10:23 PM I made meatballs, rice, mushrooms and onions for dinner. Time to begin the retiring process. I read three pages of a chapter and my brain is telling me I will understand all these tomorrow with a fresh head.
Good night blog.

Despite what was going on within or without me, I cooked a meal tonight. Pork chops garnished with Italian seasoning and garlic salt, corn, fried rice and gravy. It looked something like this.
My beloved husband loved it. I had to share. We are forever grateful for what we have and pray for those who have nothing to eat, that the Creator may provide for them. Amen.
