MONDAY CHIT-CHAT: RESTING

Good morning my beloved...in whom I am well pleased. How was your weekend? How did last week go? Yesterday was mothers day...hope you did something nice for your mama or at least gave her a call? Motherhood is not easy oh...I take a look at those women around me juggling it and I wonder...how are you doing this without shaking ogogoro everyday? Mothers are super;that's all I can say. So a belated Happy Mothers Day to all of you amazing women who nurture. 

First to leave a comment + email still wins airtime recharge...so errrr...you know what to do ba?

I’ve been feeling one kind, last week I thought it was flu but I’m beginning to think it’s malaria sef because the aches and pains are yet to subside. You know that feeling when it’s sometime in the afternoon, you feel a bit alright…then towards evening you start shaking like waterleaf…ehn. Na so e don dey do me. So I decided to take my doctor’s advice: drink plenty water, take my drugs, eat good food and sleep. 

And blog. 


My friend came over yesterday and she brought her daughters-who are absolutely cute and intelligent. Kai…children these days are sharp oh-you cannot pull wool over their eyes. I remember as a child when visitors came over and were about to leave I would cry and say I want to follow, they will now send me errand to go and bring my shoe/bag/box/something sha…by the time I finish carrying my shoe from inside they would have disappeared…LOL. That trick used to work for me then, but I doubt it will work for children of these days. 

Why? 

I was gisting with my friend and her kids were running around-so the gist went something like “abeg I nor get any friend for America something something something”…the next thing the daughter asked me “when we were coming to your house my mummy said she was going to see her friend, but now you are saying that you don’t have friend, is my mummy not your friend”? Oh dear! I didn’t even know she was listening, how much more comprehending what I was saying…I had to explain that I meant I didn’t have a friend in THAT particular location. I reassured her that of course her mummy is my friend. LOL.

She reminded me of my niece Riwostic-they are so sharp. We thank God sha, better sharp than a dulling pikin. 

I received two  books last week...one from my dad and the other from Bobo's dad-they gave them to me since he's not around and they were both marriage books. Is God trying to tell me something? :D The first book was by Joyce Meyer (I love that woman) "Making marriage work, the advice you need for a lifetime of happiness" and the other was by someone who I hear is amazing speaking: "Secrets of a stable home with practical solutions to stubborn problems of african couples" by Olumuyiwa Ige...see the part I highlighted? This should be interesting to read. Maybe I should do a review when I'm done! 


Let me go back to bed and sip my tea. Nepa/PHCN please be good to me. 

Have an amazing week everybody!!!

    glad you had fun



    The one I don't understand is how people feel obligated to take every food on the menu. I don't understand why someone will have a plate with everything piled up and overflowing then go back and get a wrap of pounded yam and scoop the 2 or 3 different soups side by side boggles my mind and they haven't had dessert o. The mixture of those food in the stomach sha. Click HERE to read funny attitude of Nigerians @ weddings

  27. Sisi Yemmie, I can imagine a lot of people tell you this, however you should hear it again - your blog is so relatable and easy to read regardless of your views. Reading your blog is just like catching up with a friend after some time away. Anyway, you do have a friend in America because yours truly here sure loves catching up with you all the way from Yankee. Seriously, if you ever need a favor from someone in the states, just let me know. Moreover, you are a libra and I know how amazing they are....cause I am one too :)

    **You should consider writing a book some day...no pressure though

    Oby

  31. I know this is me being real nosy. If you are looking for a place to stay in America to give birth you can come to America with your mum or sister and get a short lease apartment or extended stay in lets say houston or maryland. You can find these online. Then you can give birth here and Baby YEMYOM will be an american citizen. This is something to consider. Please come have your baby in America biko. The perks are plentiful.
