So many things happened this year that I’m grateful for but here’s the highlight for me:

Mid last year, I decided I was going to buy another house and this time, in the location I really wanted. I searched and searched but there was never a perfect fit.

The places I found were either overpriced or too small. I wanted big but not too big. I wanted a complex where I could see neighbours, I also wanted privacy. It was tough finding that.

In November, after I had almost given up, I followed a friend to view a new purchase.

As soon as I entered into the maisonette, I knew I had found my home. (Well, until I feel the need to move again. 😃)

The price was out of my budget but when I love something, it is no longer expensive, I just have to work towards making the money back.

August 2021,

5 Lessons I learnt from 2021:

1.“Everyone is doing it,” is the reason I’ll MOST PROBABLY NOT DO IT. Often, when everybody is thinking alike, nobody is thinking at all.

2.Apologise first when I hurt/offend someone. They may have assumed wrongly, their feelings may not be justified but instead of explaining away my actions, I apologise first, then explain. It has never failed.

3. I can create anything in my mind; conflict, chaos, resolution, peace etc. So, no matter what I’m going through, I train my mind to see humour, opportunities, lessons and solutions. This is why I get back up from challenges quicker than expected.

I have two non-sexual turn-ons in men. Two things that can make me want to pay a man’s groom price at the spot! Oh God!🥲

1. When he smells nice: When he smells amazing, I can humbly declare that I am his and he is mine! All of a sudden, I want to smell every part of him!

I won’t even mind being his shirt. It’s this type of people we want to steal all their shirts. Come here, daddy! I promise not to do much. Maybe.🥺

2. When he has good skin!: I love it when a man pays attention to his skin, uses skin care products and even has a skin care routine. Not those that use 7-in-1 cream for their body, their face, their hair, their hands, as shoe shiner, as dish washer and for laundry.

I have just read a post on Twitter about how heartbreaking it is when your friend of the opposite sex wants more from the relationship but you don’t feel the same way and you’d simply like to stay friends.

I’ll tell you my story.

We were colleagues in the same industry, he had more experience and I was always excited to learn from him. We became fast friends on our way to the UK to attend a conference, we were inseparable at the conference. We attended parties and meetings together and shopped together.

He was such a delight and it was easy for me to talk about my relationship and everything else that my spirit felt free enough to share.

He was single so I made it my mission to find him a girl.He would listen to me go on and on about my love then tell me, “you’re a lucky girl.”

Do you know why I talk about sisterhood and women uplifting women A LOT? Because every single day, I witness what it feels like to be supported by women who don’t know me.

Here’s something that happened recently: A DANG community member was at a popular store to buy stuff,

this store has branches in almost all the states in Nigeria. As she shopped, the manager of the store asked her what perfume she was wearing, she said she was wearing Zeus by DANG. The manager had no idea what Dang! Lifestyle was but this community member gave her all the details

she needed, asked her to go to the website, that we have so many other products available, she went further by recommending that this store stock ALL DANG products as it will be good business for them.

Guess who’s in my email right now discussing as a potential stockist?

#Throwbackthursday to September 26, 2017.

My neighbours moved in over two weeks ago and we haven’t officially met. I say officially because I see them through my window as they drive to and from work. I have seen them, I just haven’t met them.

The couple seems quite reserved, I wonder how they go to work in the mornings without giving each other a peck or a smile. Yes, I watch them, I watch everyone as they go out in the morning. It is kind of my morning ritual.

Because I have manners,

I take a small fruit basket with me.

Knock. knock.

I’m at the door, announcing my presence but there’s no answer. I’m sure they’re in, they drove in at the same time earlier this evening.

Knock. Knock.

“Who is there?” I finally hear a muffled voice from the other side.
