A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband. For many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom,
and knowing her husband could afford it, she told him that was all she
wanted.
As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husband
had purchased the diamond ring.
Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his study.
Her husband told her how proud he was to have such a good wife, and told her how much he loved her.
He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift box.
Curious, the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible,
with the wife's name embossed in gold.
Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, 'With all your money you give me a Bible?' And stormed out of the house leaving her husband. Many years passed and the lady was very successful in business. She
managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,
but realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps she
should go to visit him. She had not seen him for many years.
But before she could make arrangements, she received a telegram
telling her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willed
all of his possessions to her. She needed to come back immediately
and take care of things.
When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness and
regret filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband's
important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it
years before.
With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Her
ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11,
'And if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more shall your Heavenly Father, who is in heaven,
give what is good to those who ask Him?'
As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of
the Bible. It had a diamond ring, with her name engraved on it --
the same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom.
On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words. 'LUV U ALWAYS'.
How many times do we miss God's blessings, because they are not
packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this.

I'm Not a Shrink..I'm a Cheerleader!!!
Ha!! I got your attention didn't I....well yes it was intentional. i've often wondered why when someone want to ''intentionally'' insult you, he/she will often say ''with all due respect'' or better still ''no harm intended'' and will expect you to say ''none taken''.....well BULLCRAP!! cut the courtesy and BRING IT ON!!! i'll give it to you sooo bad that you'll wonder what just hit you....ooops!!!where are my manners...pleeaase.
Now back to the tale of the day...from my years of counselling people, both married and unmarried i've come to one conclusion...Most men want a cheerleader for a wife! Not a ground breaking, earth shattering discovery but most useful to the selected few who know about it. I'm not saying you should go get your pom-pom and start shouting Goooo Hussy!! What I'm saying is that wives should learn to support their husbands by learning to cheer every thing, no matter how little, the man is doing. Then and only then will they get the deserved love and attention they have been so craving for. Be your man's numero uno fan and see the spark come back to your relationship.
I know there are some boms and jerks and scumbags and... the list goes on and on, out there but when you finally get round to finding that special someone you are willing to give up your maiden name for....learn to be their lead cheerleader.
I rest my case....ALL RISE!!!

Let the Fun begin
Finally!!! i've got rid of my kids!!!!! Now,Now...before you start running to call 999 or 911 or whatever, i didnt 'wack' them just simply sent them over to their graners for the long Vac. They are happy i am happy so forget about it as my italian friends will say.
suddenly the sun is brighter, the grass is greener, the sky is bluer.... oh what a happy day....hahahahahaha. All the mothers in the house will definitely know the feeling and fathers????..hmmmm, you know the feeling.
Today i set out to write about more serious things like how most of the youth in my country, Nigeria are jobless but the euphoria of my new found freedom has swept me off my feet and I LIKE IT!!! i think i'll leave it for another day because i do not want to trivialise such a serious thing as this. one thing i did though is to start a blog - LATEST JOBS IN NIGERIA its a blog for job seekers. This is so cool because i am able to put in my little quota to alienate unemployment in my country.
OK, enough said, i think i'll just go on enjoying the rest of my new found freedom with hussy...wink wink, nudge nudge...lol

GREEN
aaah green.... I figured that since the world is going green so should i.
A lot of events has happened since the last time i came here ( 1'm actually feeling like a stranger in my own house can you beat that??).
i have learnt, or rather still learning to live my life to the fullest irrespective of circumstances & challenges of my everyday adult life. i tell you this is the best discovery of my life...no kidding. of course i cant give myself any credit to that at all, all the credit goes to the Holy Spirit inside of me. He guides, guards, counsels me all the way. if you haven't experienced His power you are missing a whole lot.
Hope to write more this time around...men facebook is taking all of my internet time. maybe i should cut down on my fb time on the net...hmmmmm....naah, no can do. i'm sure i'll work something out but until then its cheerio, facebook beckons lol.

IT'S HECTIC BEING THE BOSS
i never knew that being the boss is such a hard work. you get to be the eyes, ears, mouth...heck the whole head of the place. The ball is now in your court, you are now the deciding factor whether you'll fail or succeed. you get to spend extra-extra hours at work (i even bring my kids to work after school; they do their homework in the office and all.
it's Saturday and here i am in the office with my kids....i use candies and all that to bribe them from whining but trust kids they still need their space to jump around. i take comfort in the fact that this is just the starting period that things will stabilize with time but when?? only God can tell.
i don't even have a social life anymore, its just work, work, and more work. Thank God for facebook and yahoo at least i can still be in touch with some friends.
I'm not complaining cos im enjoying every bit of it. it's my work and I'M THE BOSS :)
