Woke up today to news that one of our cabinet ministers, Minister for Environment & Mining Hon. John Michuki has passed on. He was one of the effective leaders we have known as a country especially in his previous docket as Minister for Tranport & Communication. Rest in Peace.
I sure hope he mentored many directly and transferred the good leadership qualities and lessons he had acquired.
Yesterday, a good galfriend was so upset with us (some other galfriends and I) because on Sunday we ended up having a picnic without her. She felt that we did not make any effort to contact her to join us. It happened by chance, we drove from church together (she attends a different service from us) and we got to a fast food restaurant but we decided to take the food away rather than sit. We found a nice picnic spot and had so much fun catching up.
Had better plan for a decent picnic soon for all of us.
Launching the #BEAGENDA2013 today for Palmhouse Foundation...that had better not be upsetting!

my 2 cents worth
Today am not feeling brilliant...my 2 cents worth is really not worth much but for what its worth, here's a little of what I'v been going through in no particular sequence.
I worked on a document earlier this week and submitted it as done, unfortunately I did not save the updated changes. My boss did not open it and forwaded as it was. The recepient had quite a bit of questions and that was not impressive of me.
I have been going to class for over a month now, starting to get the hang of things and learning lots of new things. I thought I knew what Finance was all about until I came across the content am reading now and it is so interesting unlike what I thought.
I decided to run a campaign in support of the Palmhouse Foundation endowment fund, I have worked partialy at it and forwarded to someone who could help with refining it, he's taken so long and am afraid I have created a curiosity in my audience (been talking a little about it) and haven't delivered it yet.
Late last year, I had another idea in its support too, its such a big magazine idea (in my humble view) and will take time developing it little by little.
We have someone in the company who came in recently to handle data analysis, but her expertise is in commercial development so does not have the skills to play around with the data to generate meaningful information. She ran it by me and asked me if I could assist, am not too good at it but I have a few ideas but not refined yet. I have worked a little on it and presented it and she did not look impressed though she liked a few variables...thats did not satisfy me so am currently (ok, on a different window) staring at it and hope it could convert itself to something brilliant*sigh
I have tonnes of assignments I need to do and I still havent bought my chicken house.
I think am developing the desire to own a car, fought to get into a public bus today to get to work on time and left a bad taste in my mouth. If I had one, I'd have picked the chicken house already and carried home a reading chair. Our roads are much better than they were a year ago so the wear and tear on the car would not be as significant. Our fares have gone up so high and almost equivalent to fueling a car. My new busy life has attracted the need for one.
I still want to own a house soon.
I had better start working and reading harder and being smarter. I need more than 2 cents worth!!!

Busy...the good type
I go to work Monday To Friday, I go to school Monday to Saturday, I volunteer in some organisations in between, I go to church on Sunday, I go home every once in a while, I meet up with friends once in a while, I clean up my house once in a while, I cook once in a while and am yet to find time to collect my chicken house.
Interestingly enough, am enjoying all these action.
I had been at a comfort zone for quite a while and did not like it at the end, so here I am taking as much as I can but maintaining a balance.
Maybe I shd think of dating too... hope to find 'chemical x'...ooh boy :)
An in between found sometime to post on the lazy blog.
I need to write down a plan...I have it in my mind but as I get busy, I'm not paying attention to it. Sad could it be if I ended up achieving nothing on my plan. I will review it every week..maybe on Saturday /Sunday... I'll plan that too :)
