Allahu Akbar!

Each day without fail I wake up to these words (I prefer to call them songs) and I wake up with a smile. You see, I have no need for an alarm. Like clockwork once its 5am everyday, I am jolted awake.
Are you wondering why I wake up with a smile? I wake up smiling because I no longer have the need to wake up by 4am and start rushing to get out of my house for 5am. I take my time when I wake up by 5am to say a quick prayer with the Hubz, get up to put his lunch pack together. Then I go back to snooze, or do my own devotion. After which I prepare at my own pace for work. This is #SheerBliss compared to when I used to get to work on or before 6am.

Work resumes by 8:30 am. Even if I leave my house by 8:00 am, I still get to work for 8:30 am. How cool is that?
Anyway, I no longer have those constant headache that used to plague me and I am totally grateful to God. I now have time to rest and guess what? I can try out new beading projects after work hours! I can even cook a decent meal when I get home from work too. Plus the new house is amazing. God bless Mr. K. M in ways he will never understand.

#Sigh. I know now that life is to be lived. Now I can actually take up a course or whatever catches my fancy after work hours...yeah, I like to be busy like that.

Have a great day people!

"Distrated"

Permit me to use this new word coined from Disappointed and Frustrated. Thank you. And no, I don't feel this way right now at all. Far from it. On the contrary I am on a high. *wink* Ok. I promised to do a post on my jewellery project, but I'll still get to do it. This story has been pushing itself to me since yesterday and share it I must. There was a Retreat for some of my colleagues  in May, and I was to be a part of it. Notice for the Retreat was rather short and it actually conflicted with my brother-in-Law's (BIL) wedding. Well, the retreat was in Benin for Tuesday to Friday, and the wedding was in Kwara State for Friday and Saturday. This meant I had to pack a suitcase for the 2 events, right? Well, my MIL had graciously sent me the fabrics (Aso-ebi) for the Traditional and Church wedding, and I still hadn't found a tailor to help me make something really nice. (I wanted to dress to impress my would be in-laws). AS time was running out, I ditched...

All of it...

Hello lovely people of blogsville!!! I hope you missed me half as much as I missed you? :) I am seriously clearing cobwebs, spiders, bats and all from this blog.  So I am married now shaaaaaa...after what, 3 years of dating this guy? God has been faithful, that the only thing I can say. I really want to thank you for all the congratulatory messages, tweets, love and all. God bless you all. You know you and you know I know you too. lol! Thanks a lot for still sticking to this blog, It honestly means a lot to me. To all my new followers, I appreciate you too! Ha, I went to the moon to "drink honey", and I am back to reality real time. Its been like 2 years since I took a break from work, and it was a beautiful experience (the honeymoon and the break from work) I tell you. Not that I haven't been entitled to a break, but I always tie them down to events, exams and what not, so I haven't really rested per say. I fear I have so much to say that I don...

Little clusters

I have been feeling out of sorts of late, not illness, not depression, just a bit detached from everything. I have no reason to feel this way, things are going well in my life, but there is just this ...thing I can't actually place my hands on. I know it's there, at the back of my mind, but I have decided to leave it there, at the back. I won't give myself headache for something I can't control. Why should I worry? My God is there to deal with it anyway! Its amazing how far a kind word, thought, deed or prayer will go. In this my "undefined" state, I suddenly saw a notification on my phone, it was a direct message on twitter by @gbemisoke, and she said a word of prayer for me. I can't express how I felt, but it was a word in season. I almost cried when I saw it, and I felt like in the whole universe, God had put a spot light on me. At the same time, I saw that a friend had changed her DP to my picture and her PM was "Friends are an important ...
