Uaridi: August 2005
http://uaridi2.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Tuesday, August 23, 2005. There was some benefit. This is going to sound strange, but in a way I am not too sad that the Europeans came to our country. But now, I cannot imagine my life without coffee, cigarettes and BLOGGING. I shudder to think what my life would have been in those old days - child bearing, co-wives,working in the shamba, carrying water from the river (tried that once and nearly broke my back! Fendidng off raids from the Maasai and the Kambas. I do n...

Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Saturday, January 01, 2005. Happy New Year everyone of my blog buddies, especially the Kenya Webring. New challenges, new hopes, new plans and of course new resolutions (quit smoking, lose weight, keep fit etc) I hope we will keep these resolutions. Of course I stopped doing that when I reached a certain age. I wish God's blessings on everyone of my friends and may 2005 be full of joy, happiness, opportunities for growth and pleasant surprises at every corner.

Uaridi: October 2004

Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Wednesday, October 27, 2004. How Africa is courting its exiles. Estimates suggest Africans working abroad send home $45bn a year. On the fringes of the European Social Forum in London, people of African descent are holding their own conference - and discussing how Africa could benefit from their achievements. Suddenly Africa is wooing its exiles. Some of the continent's best brains, and deepest pockets are in London, Paris or New York, not in Lagos or Nairobi. But mos...

Uaridi: October 2005
http://uaridi2.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Monday, October 31, 2005. I learnt to love flowers, most especially roses from my mother. There is nothing as peaceful and soothing to me like looking at flowers. I grew up loving red, pink and white roses. It was not until I left home and travelled overseas that I have seen a variety of colours, shapes and sizes of roses. It is a constant wonder for me that God created flowers to delight our senses. Posted by Uaridi at 10/31/2005 01:49:00 pm. Tuesday, October 11, 2005.

Uaridi: December 2004
http://uaridi2.blogspot.com/2004_12_01_archive.html
Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Wednesday, December 01, 2004. Movies - Africans in the Media. What I strongly protest is the modern remakes of those same old stereotypes like King Solomon’s Mine being shown by Hallmark TV and staring Patrick Swayze, - you know the Ghost guy. I was irritated by Hallmark and this movie and so I watched a few scenes so that I could register my objections. Some of the ideas about the Dark Continent that still persist include:. Africa as one great lump of land. Wonder of...

Uaridi: November 2005
http://uaridi2.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Monday, November 14, 2005. Once my family and I went to the Nairobi museum, and afterwards, some brave souls decided to go to the snake house. I and a younger sister waited outside enjoying our ice-cream, after a few minutes, we heard screams coming out from the snake house and one of the brave ones came running out, screaming and shaking why? Not for all the tea in China, India and Kenya combined would I allow myself to be in a room with snakes. When I give thanks to...

Uaridi: September 2004

Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Thursday, September 30, 2004. Before the Jerry Springer show became more idiotic than it is nowadays, I saw a show he had hosted, with two right wing. Groups as his guests, one white and the other a black one. What would these groups do if they actually read the truth contained in the Bible? Or even more interesting, if they saw Jesus as He was 2,000 years ago, olive skinned and all? What are the chances that these groups would accept Him? Maranatha, Come Lord JESUS.

Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Wednesday, November 24, 2004. When I started blogging I was so sure that I would have to tear myself away from the computer because I would not bring myself to stop writing. I beleived that I would never ran out of words of wisdom to share on my soap box - here hidden in my room behind the Uaridi barrier. Posted by Uaridi at 11/24/2004 12:13:00 pm. Kui (No.1 niece).

Uaridi: February 2006
http://uaridi2.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Wednesday, February 15, 2006. I enjoy walking and exploring where I live. But this enjoyment is generally controlled by my fear of crossing roads. I do not know where this fear came from, but it is a real one. Whenever, I have to cross the road, I make sure that I am at the place where there is green and red man,. Because I am afraid to face cars. I said yes, but you have to hold my hand because I am a chicken! Fortunately he did and I did. I watch in fear and trembli...

Uaridi is the Swahili name for rose. Tuesday, September 27, 2005. Knitting is my number one hobby. It has kept me sane and stress free, especially in the early part of this year. The ponchos I have made are snatched out of my hands even before I finish the last fringe. This green one is part of a "thank you" project to some very special people. I pleased to boast also that I have learnt how to work a digital camera and download photos to the computer. Never too old to learn! Monday, September 19, 2005.
