What a day!

  Picture taken by Kiity after a 9km walk We added to the history of walking today. The most I consider we have done together - 9Km. Actually more than 9km but let's use the 9-limit today.   Courtesy the CU Alumni walking challenge in March 2025, I took walking to another level. and Yes, you can say I carried....or should I use dragged...Kiity along with me.  One of our many walks was at the Cherry Blossom park...Here is a picture in February 2025.  26th February 2025.  And then, another picture taken in late March 2025.  It had blossomed as at 27th March 2025.                                         The walks could be through the Amsterdam Bos or around the Amstelveen Poel. I was contemplating walking to Aalsmeer. Kiity pulled back on this one.   It is always amazing to take the walks with you. I seem to come alive when we do this and can talk...

  image borrowed from floralpetalsofwestchester.com It was Kiity's birthday. And I started thinking.   Now the Ijebu me was thinking of the phone we recently decided to buy and that it was enough for a birthday gift. It was a little struggle but then I realised we both decided to buy that phone and I could make a difference by still doing something thoughtful for Kiity.  If I was to back-track a little bit. Kiity had always been the gift-giver. And like they say, you are prone to easily do what you would like to receive. I still recall one of my birthdays at MainOne in the Saka Tinubu office where I was keeping the whole birthday thing on a low-key. And then, came a gift box and some other items for me. This spoilt my low-key birthday spree as most people got to know it was my birthday.  Now back to Kiity. I know she likes to have a special day. However, I don't think I really made her birthdays since 2017 special, till 2023 when we started having some timeouts....
