It's the last day of June.

The 1st half of the year is over.

Earlier this year, we discussed some kickass moves for 2017 and one of them was to have a gratitude jar. (See post here  ).

It's time to be thankful for all the blessings that have come our way. It has been said that we can either count our blessings or decide our blessings don't count. We have decided to count our blessings because we are thankful like that. I have on my gratitude list;

• My family; God has been keeping us and making us beautiful.
• My job; and all the wonderful colleagues and partners I have met.
• My finances; to be honest, this year has been smooth financially.
• My friends; bestie's white wedding was successful and my good friends gave birth to the most adorable babies.
• This blog; I'm grateful for the gift of writing and the platform to share my thoughts with the world. I also developed some skills in addition to my writing.
• You; yes you reading this. The over 8k visitors I have received and my followers on facebook and Instagram. Know this you have been a tremendous blessing.

So dears, what are you grateful for, don't forget this

I remember the first time I was asked out, I was 11 years old, wearing a white shirt and a green skirt. The guy in question should have been 15 or more. He was staring at me from the other side of the road and when he crossed over, I knew he was going to ask me out and I was excited though I played it cool. I'm not sure I heard anything he said, the answer was obviously no but I couldn't wait to gist my friends in school the next day. See, I was in Js3 and most of my friends were between ages 13 and 15 and so I was the last to be asked out in the group and I couldn't wait to tell everyone about it.

After that day, it was like a door opened and since then I have been asked out by men of all classes. Some of them stand out for both good and bad reasons. Some were soooooo smooth that you just wanted to be around them even though you knew you'd say no and some were soooo ***** that you decided you must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed and need to go back to sleep.

This Thursday, we'll be throwing back to the lines we heard growing up when guys were 'toasting' us.

Someone once told me I looked like Beyonce and I laughed soooo hard because I know we didn't look alike.

Another one kept telling me he fantasized about Paris Hilton and then told me I looked like Paris Hilton. I definitely didn't pick his calls after that day.

And there were the sweet ones.... I smile just thinking of their moves.

So divas, I'd like to hear the pick up lines you've been told; the good, bad and ugly.

The funniest, lamest, dopest etc. I'd like to hear them all.

It's a Monday morning and time to go about our daily grind and hustle.

Sometimes, we could ask ourselves if it's worth it. The stress, the diligence, the routines and plans.

We could wake up and wish we were asleep, asking ourselves 'all these stress, for what'.

A clear vision, a clear sense of where we're going, a clear picture in our head of what our future can be and who we are becoming will see us through the trying times.

Word for this week, 'I see where I am going and it is beautiful'.

Have a productive week dears.

It's the last month of the 1st half of the year.

June is here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello June, may you be good to us.

I see blessings and success for all work divas.

May all our wishes come true. Our best days are here.
