Business Minders

I totally hate it when people are busy bodies. 

Just mind your own business. Stop trying to know everything. It doesn't just concern you!!!

What good will you do when you finally know? Will you make it better? Or do you want to file it in the credenza for "People's Business" and brandish it like a trophy when gossip comes visiting?

Why do you want to know if she gave birth through CS or by "natural means"? Why not just ask if the mom and baby (ies) are doing OK?
Why do you want to know how old she is if she says she got engaged? Will her age make her a better wife?
Why in this world do you want to know how much he paid for the new house he is moving to? Can you or will you reimburse him? Will you subsidize his rent?
Why do you want to know if she is pregnant? Did you sleep with her? Are you God? Can you give life?
Why do you want to know how much he is earning? Will you do the job for him? Will the knowledge swell your own coffers? 
Why do you want to know how she died? Will you play God and bring her back to life?
Why do you want to know every single detail about my life?

If I ask you a simple question, I hardly ever get an answer. Yet with each bbm update, you stalk me. Asking me: "Why?", "Who?", "When?", "Where?", "How?"

No one probably tells you anything anymore simply because it will become common news. If I ever need to publicize anything, all i have to do is come to you. and guess what? The whole world knows my business. Free of charge.
Stop being a gossip. Get a life of your own.
Mind your damn business!!!!

"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 ...
