Wahu Reveals How Her Holiday was Nerve-wracking

In essence, the holiday season is the time to relax and unwind after a period of ups and downs. It’s the season for gifts, parties, friends, family and food. However, for singer Wahu it was all blissful as it was accompanied by stress.

It was a demanding time as she had to handle all the house chores except shopping, taking out the trash and babysitting which Nameless does with less effort as opposed to doing dishes, vacuuming the carpet or preparing dinner. With that in mind, the Kenyan songstress had to make sure everything is in order denying her the time to loosen up.

She says,

“I’m sure I’m not alone when I say the December holidays are usually not as restful as they should be…having to run things almost entirely on your own, it’s bound to be a trial of sorts.

Mine sure was…with a series of scheduled performances (which entail lots of rehearsal) on the one hand, my salon being hectically busy on the other, a seven year old who’s morning greeting is followed by “what are we doing today” and a four month old who doesn’t love the bottle, I think it suffices to say that the holidays were hectic to say the least. At some point I wanted to just shut my bedroom door, run the bath and just chill. But could I? Not quite

The height of it came when my lovely DM happily packed her bags for the holidays. This may sound a little “urbanite” but I wanted to cry!!! Over and above aaalll I have to deal with, now am also responsible for cooking, cleaning the house and the laundry. I dare say these have been the hardest 3 weeks of my entire year…but I got through it. Back aching, and all, but MAMA DID IT!!!

I hit the “battle field” after being married for 8 years, I sorta know the things I shouldn’t try asking my hubby to do – He’s never gonna vacuum the carpet right, do the dishes, or prepare dinner J. However, he’s mastered shopping, taking out the trash, baby sitting and entertaining Tumi. (That’s when he’s not on stage or at rehearsals himself; luckily, none of our performances coincided, so that worked out ok). Everything else falls in my docket i.e., cooking, cleaning, laundry, bath & bedtime for the girls, bearing in mind that my businesses (both music and the salon) were at their peak too.

Maaaan!!! It feels like I lived my whole year in 3 weeks!”

Now you know even celebs have it rough sometimes.
