Answer the question…..



















LOL Na wa…

 I have mentioned before that I live in a "yard" and some guy just recently moved in. I won't ordinarily have paid him any attention except that I find this absolutely amazing….

 Nothing wrong abi? Please help me work out how he would open the burglar proof bar(s) when he's inside his apartment!!!

So I was in the bank the other day and I happened to peep at a feedback form someone had filled and left on the counter…I found it funny… See the form below

If you cant see it clearly…

The 1st question says "what is your opinion of the bank?"
Response "it's a good bank and it's faster"

Next question is "how can we serve you better?"
Response "just that for you to be MORE faster"
Don't know why I found it so funny….
Today is a good day nice and cool(coldish actually) weather even though I spent close to three hours getting to work!!! This 3rd mainland repairs will cause something I tell you!!


Going for a meeting….Lerra

Random meme

Dont know why my nails are in such a nasty state... short and cuticles sticking out everywhere ***covers face in embarassment***. i wonder how ladies manage to constantly look together/on point ALL THE TIME. From head to toe. My state of chaos has somewhat increased since i married and had children in quick succession....

But then i have seen some mums of toddlers look on point!



I saw this lady the other day at the hospital in Lagos wearing snow boots abi isnt that what these things are called?
Product Details

I suspect she was just coming in from alaska...... mcheew

On another random note, i still dont have a seat in the office. I cant wait for the three months to elapse and see the kind of seating it takes 3 whole months to provide *rolls eyes*

Yesterday was my 4th year wedding anniversary... i wish i could say its been bliss all through.... Hopefully with time it'll get better.

The boys are doing fine.  We are at the Q&A stage with my dear Ayobami and the questions are indeed endless... why did you go to work?, why did you drive like that?, who is that man/woman? Ah ah.... To make matters worse smallie is at the copy copy stage, so he repeats the very question i have just answered and i just have to answer. It's a wonder i still have any flesh on with all the talking i do on a daily basis :D

Which kain yeye post be this sef?

I ran into my teacher from primary 4 the other day.... Amazingly she recognised me and still remembered my name!!! she also remembered a few other people from my class. Such good memories she struck up in me i tell you. I particularly remember one boy Ahmed being asked a question and he responded " no idea" . At the time,Junior challenge(i think that was the name) a game show was being aired on NTA and that as what contestants would say when they didnt know the answer to the question being asked. LOL she almost whacked his head....
i also remembered helping one boy Bisi to do his sums(or maybe it was comprehension sef, who knows) and he gave me money.... I remember refusing!!!! Now i wish i had collected the money LOL

Good old memories people...

Anyway y'all wanted a post so there you have it!!!

Life sha…..


What a week its been in fluffy's life…
I lost a "close" relation and have thus been further reminded that indeed death is the end of all things.
The circumstances were unfortunate and there are so many "ifs" and what nots on how the loss could have been avoided…. Sometimes I also think and feel it could've been prevented, but since the Lord says "not a leaf falls to the ground without His knowledge" then I know surely Jehovah has the final say.
My dearly beloved relation didn't have children in the marriage; I have been informed that apparently there are three children outside wedlock. I feel bad and wonder how the surviving spouse is going to react when all this is revealed if found true!
Were I in such a situation I'm not sure I'd attend the funeral or receive any condolence visitors after being betrayed in such a manner….. but then "luckily" I am not in such a situation at this time….
I was once told of a man who passed away after being unfaithful to his wife(right after the act). The wife was pretty devastated by the death and didn't seem to assimilate the fact that he was cheating at the time of this occurrence, I thought to myself that I'd be so furious I'd probably not attend the funeral as well!


I don't mean to be judgemental of these people after all even I have my own sins that will follow me to my grave!!!


This is the closest I've come to losing a family member and largely I'm just in shock.
Of course the house has been inundated with so many visitors. Ordinarily you couldn't even come near the gate due to the nature of my relation's job!!!
Life is just so ……
I stepped into the deceased's office and wondered how many plans had been stopped midway because a life had just been lost.
It's made me think so much of my future !!!

Dear 9ja foodie….




Just in case you haven't notice I am not speaking to you….


Yep im vexing for you!!!


Why you may ask?


My people please help me judge this matter…


Jejely was I browsing 9ja foodie's website when I saw this link Oven Baked Scotch Egg | 9jafoodie | Modern African Cuisine

That's how I decided to try the thing oh….. after much trauma- translate unsuccessful attempt I ended up with "Squashed eggs" see for yourself





I was visibly traumatised LOL


To make matters worse I sent the picture to my friend who put it up with my name boldly written and tagged it Scotch eggs on her BB dp....

Then she sent me feedback from her contacts one person said the eggs were stubborn and another said she could see the scotch in the eggs LMAO


Not sure I will be "scotching" anything in the near future LMAO


N.B- 9ja foodie, you've figured out what to send me as peace offering or rather appeasement sacrifice haven't you? ;)


Happy weekend everyone!!!

Randoms once again


Hmmmm


What a day! One of our major accounts that we lost due to some silly errors just called us back, God really does give second chances to ALL!!! I'm happy it has certainly made me smile today.
I have been wondering all day why people in Lagos are still greeting each other Happy Easter, Se Easter has come and gone? Abi?
For the past few days I have had to take public buses and even in the few hours my experiences have been enough to blog about :D. This morning,for some reason, when the driver who was also doubling as conductor said I hadn't paid the correct fare I cleared my throat and in my best fone I said "I beg your pardon" **covers face in shame** then I remembered where I was…… silly me! The bus I entered this afternoon had a DVD for our viewing pleasure. He was playing a Pasuma type CD though I was traumatised not only by the music but because the driver kept wanting to watch as well. Thankfully a few mins after the thing stopped showing and the driver spent the rest of the journey changing CDS trying to find one that will show… thank God he didn't crash the car.


The whole experience reminded me of a friend of mine who I ran into a few weeks back, we hadn't seen in many years though I had kept up with her via the media. She's an absolutely brilliant woman that friend of mine. She was even my bunkmate at a time. She's got 1st class degrees(note the plural people) from Havard and the likes…. What I found really funny was the fact that despite all she has at her disposal the "cares" of this world don't seem to interest her. She didn't even drive a car!!! She preferred bussing she says. In this Lagos? I mean no brazillian or Peruvian weave, no Louis Vuitton bag or sandals…. She wasn't even dating anyone!!! She said she didn't seem interested in the regular girl's dream of get married to Leke the bank manager and live happily ever after with your children and pets with loads of domestic servants in Chevron Estate Ikoyi/Lekki or Maitama, Abuja….
It seemed bizarre to me I tell you… she could easily have any job she wanted and earn as much as Goodluck Jonathan sef…..


Na wa.


On the home front things are fine, my son Ayobami too is becoming a Tinsel addict like his mama, the other day he called me "mrs Okoh" and when I exclaimed in shock he said "Amaka Okoh" LOL smallie too dey there. Still refusing to use his potty, he only agrees to pee in the thing when one lifts it right up to his peepee. Naija men sha like to be FULLY served. Mcheeewwwww
I feel like some cake, not good for my weight loss meme I'm told.
I've been quite good by the way, been jogging and doing aerobics. I must win this battle of the bulge :D

i was going to blog about my inlaws today but its my husband's birthday so i decided otherwise....

I wish i could blog down all my thoughts immediately they come to me, it'll save me trying to remember what it was i wanted to blog about LOL

I wonder why we Yoruba people  say 'come and join me' when eating??!!! I've somehow started doing it too even though i don't understand why and don't really want whoever to join me in my meal anyway...

The boys are fine, driving me nuts as usual :D. Now they demand for songs as soon as we get in the car and because they don't know the titles the way they describe it is absolutely ridiculous... Like Ayobami would say 'mummy play "aha" for me and i know he means MI's "beef" or something like that... or he says play "hohohohoho" and it's the no 6 song on MI's CD LOL

In a bid to really shed weight  i am currently sipping some green tea.... i am not enjoying the process but the thought of becoming and remaining a size 18 is even less appealing. My main challenge is reducing portions and cutting out dinner for now.... God help me abeg

My place of work is still full of perplexing moments and i really pray my circumstances change soonest... I went to speak with the Operations manager about getting a seat( i currently share my table with 3 other personnel) and he says really getting a seat for me is a 3 month project.... Ah ah

I'll stop here for now, dont want my green tea getting cold ;)

These are the issues…..

  My parents got divorced long before I turned three ( I think I may even have been younger) my dad was a very difficult person as I got to ...
