"And co"

On Sunday in  church, one man strolled in wearing a white shirt and black trousers. Normally he'd be dressed in ankara sewn into buba and sokoto, his wife would also wear some ankara and even if not the same fabric design it'll be same colours or at least similar( you get the drift). So when he strolled in on Sunday, i wondered what his wife would wear!!! 

She came in a few minutes after wearing a suit! Since then, I've been wondering how exactly do 'and co' couples work it out? Does one person say- dear we are wearing 'our' brown fabric today? or does one person pick out the clothes and that's it? do they have like a meeting where clothes for the week are picked out? 

How exactly does it work? what if one person genuinely doesn't like it? Will he/she say so? and risk the other person getting/feeling hurt? 

It also brings to mind couples that eat thier meals from the same plates (as often as they can)..... 

i'm not against any of these displays of affection/love oh i'm just wondering how it's done. 

Are there any couples here who practise these? or other/near in nature/similar stuff? 

Do share your stories!!!!

For some reason i think Ibiluv would be guilty of one or more of these stuff ;)

Gist.....

A few days ago my son asked me why boys and girls say 'hey' when they're dancing..... I couldn't stop laughing especially seeing as i am guilty of the same offence
This morning he wanted to know why women have to wear breast hangers(don't ask me LOL) on thier breasts and i promptly told him it's because we need somewhere to 'hang' our boobies :D Abi?

I'm having my lunch right now.... garri and moin moin! Care for some? Lunch was nice.... hmmmmmm 

Not sure i can get any more work done today sha, not after this amount of food is sitting in my tummy  *sighs*

My brain has paused.... will be back ;)

Traumasssssss for the week ;)

So my colleague went to the mosque this morning and came back in bathroom slippers! Some random aboki(we assume) had made away with his shoes!  They were somewhat new..... I had quite a laugh at him, but felt somewhat pained that people i.e thieves have no iota of respect for the house of worship/prayer anymore! Such brazenness mcheeeewwww 
The poor gentleman had to spend money buying shoes which he definetely didn't plan before!!!

On the other hand, yours truly had a great big fall on Tuesday...... in the office. Open office for that matter *sighs* 

I was headed to the loo, and all i remember is not looking to where i was headed, maybe i was plucking random gist with my ears sef who knows, and i tripped over one carton that had been in the walkway!. Me and my massive buttocks landed with a thud on the floor.  my butt was in the air, *think muslim style praying* i was just silently praying that the trossis wont rip from all the trauma! if that happened i would have resigned immediately...... I'm still in some pain, my arms and knees somewhat hurt!!!! 

The colleague of mine who placed the boxes in the way, was "forced" to buy me shawarma as compensation..... 


Mchhhheeeeewwww i bought cranberry juice instead it wont do to add to this yokozuna size! 

People who decide to live healthy lifestyle, you know exercise and healthy meals, how do they manage sef? I just see rice and oily stew and get into a frenzy of "i must just eat that" 

Week's been good asides all this trauma, how's everyone else doing.......

Fire..... fire...

Of course it was the night i decided to go for vigil in church that i arrived there and gates  were locked.

Monthly vigil had apparently been cancelled mcheeeewwww

One of my resolutions was to attend these vigils more and you can imagine all my excitement last night when i got home in good time to be able to attend.

I even dragged the kids half naked and asleep into the car, figuring i'd dress them when we get there. i sha didnt want to suddenly realise it was late and i couldnt drive that late at night etc etc. In fact at a point i started nodding off and contemplated a short nap but i called the devil a liar and got dressed instead.....



mcheeeeeewwwww

This work wanna kill a people oh!

No be small thing....

I have been soooo swamped. Setting up a new department and trying to chart a new course isn't an easy feat at all.

I've barely been able to catch my breath all month, plus this 100 days fasting....

God is our strength oh- my co 100 days people ;)

On the up side i'm enjoying coming to work for a change... The role is something i've always wanted to do and i'm quite glad for the opportunity. The down side is all the politicking that comes* with the role. I work directly with the MD and everyone is more or less throwing themselves at me with all sorts of offers, juice, groundnuts, let me carry your bag etc etc . It is well. The MD himself is full of contradictions and apparently likes to knock people's heads together, God will give me wisdom. It surprises me though that even high up on the career ladder people still have/show/exhibit lack of integrity and good morals.

How's everyone else doing?

My son called me big and fat the other day!!! LOL i was surprised he actually can define these things he's just 5. I have commenced exercise albeit infrequently at the moment.

Just sneaked* in here to drop a few lines

will be back ;)

New year new me....

Sounds quite cliche i guess!!!! 

But seriously i'm hoping to give a few new thing s a try out in my life. One of which is to keep up with this space rather than internalise my issues. 

My job has finally received some ray of hope. Things are somewhat looking up!!!! 

The challenges are new and exciting and i'm happy to be in this place at this time...

Also doing some spiritual and physical revamp. Funke Akindele aka Jenifa is my inspiration for the physical bit..... the girl just always looks on point. She looks quite fit as well.... 

Not much else to pen down right now but here i am ensuring that i follow through on one of my commitments ;)


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 ...
