Here we go...

This is not so easy as I thought....squeezing out time to blog is not particularly easy, with kids, husband , jobs & blah to tend to.
Anyways, where did we stop last? Yeah, my colleagues trying to fake hard. Some women do it all the time... they try to paint their homes/ marriages like a bed of roses and condemn any woman falling short of that standard. In as much as I want to believe my husband loves me dearly, getting married to him awakened me to a whole new world, not some fantasy world I dreamt of as a teenager. I realised we're two different individuals that would never be the same but must strike a balance and live together against all odds. I realised I can't win all the time, I have to put his feelings into consideration too & let it be his turn (even if I naturally want to be selfish & have my way at all times). I realised what works for him might not work for me but there's got to be some sort of compromise every now and again. Ultimately, I realised he's not perfect just like I'm not.

Now I'm wondering why some friend hater would give bad advice to her friend. Imagine friend A seeking counsel from friend B because she suspects her husband is having extra marital affairs. Friend B advises friend A to give her husband a complete show down because according to her she would never be taken for a fool, unknowingly to friend A that friend B's husband has just impregnated friend B's best friend...SMH.

Say it as it is!

Wanted to start blogging but couldn't decide on the theme; a Christian blog? (not sure), Health & Beauty? (dunno), Marriage & relationships? (sighs & rolls eyes).
Finally decided it's going to be my own little world; a place I can hide & find succour when the heat of life comes forth, a place I can vent my anger & frustrations without fear of retribution, a place I can willfully express my concerns & opinions without hurting anyone (hopefully) and of course, a place I can share my joy, thrills & success (best part) without incurring an enemy's wrath (or envy more like). Yeah, thatzit, it's gonna be a place where I can say it as it is. That brings me to ask, why people are so dang fake? Why people paint their pasture green when it's in fact withered & full of brown patches?
Once had these friends I grew up with, whom all of a sudden turned into strangers. We were ordinary o, born with no silver spoon but not ajepakis (literally one who lives on cassava) from a humble background. Upon graduation, my friends felt they needed to up their status as we were going into a wider world, nothing wrong with that. We started job & boyfriend husband hunting & I couldn't help but get amused at the way they presented themselves whenever a prospective suitor toaster shows up. They acted like some ajebos (posh kids) who never saw a cockroach or rat crawl out of their kitchen cupboards. Too fake for me. Of course we couldn't continue the ride together, went our separate ways.
My work colleagues & I got talking on money, men & marriage. My husband & I maintain transparency in our finances, like I know what he earns, he knows mine, he knows how & what I spend money on & so do I. It works for us.
Sorry, I'm tired, I'll continue next time.........Ciao!

Starters

Yay! It's my debut in blogging and I'm excited.......


First, let's start with a peep into my private world.
I'm a young woman in her 30's, happily married to a loving husband (I suppose so), have 3 gorgeous daughters and work full time.
I'm a christian, and although I might not act it all the time, I'm passionate about Jesus. Yes, I love Jesus and I have my reasons.
I'm quite down to earth, what you see in me is what you get.....I don't do fake and detest same in others.

That's pretty much me ( let's leave out the flaws..lol!) and I 'll catch you again next time. Ciao!
