The longest post ever!

Hello all my peeps! Yeah I have been gone for a minute but I am back!!!! My little break was good for me. I was going through so much that I felt I need some ME time. I am feeling great these days though, a lot of great news and some in the making, I will divulge later.

A quick run down of what I’ve been up to.
A little drama here and there, lots of blessings, renewal of friendships, cleaning of closets…. you know a bit of everything. I finally got tired of being bald so I got Kiwi’s sister Deola to braid my hair. I am still working as a temp but I have some things in the works. I met someone but I am so scared of being punked….again so I am taking baby steps.
So I went to Charlotte for a friend’s party a couple months ago and I swear the whole experience was like punked! I kept waiting for Aston Kucher to pop out and tell me this was a freaking joke but he never surfaced, I guess my ass aint a celebrity after all.
So I went through one of the most awkward shenanigans that left me really disturbed but what amazed me more was how quickly I snapped out of it, realizing that life is weird like that. I also realize you should never compromise who you are for anyone. In life we go through drama but it’s all good so long as there is a lesson learned…needless to say I’ve learned my lesson.

Remi and I have squashed our beef……I apologized to her for tripping and although we still have a long way to go I think the foundation has been laid. I have spent the last two years of my life in denial but now I am back! Speaking of Remi, my girl got a boob job! Yes O! Not implants like I will be getting soon, but a reduction! Now baby girl is a DD and looking hella good!





















Before ..............................................After

We had a surprise parry for Dupe at my crib….it was fun, kinda like my first major social since I came out of isolation mode.

It is amazing what a broken heart does to you! Mehn I totally freaked out, I was starting to scare myself. A friend of my told me to snap out of it and stop my addiction with pain….I was a bit confused with that but now it makes sense. I realize I am not the problem and I have no regrets because now I know what NOT to do, besides it was mad fun while it lasted so every time I want to bitch slap myself for not listening to my friends, I stop and thank God for the experience. Ladies here is some truth for the day….Men are not DOGS, we (women) are just foolish….period! I urge everyone to cop a copy of ‘He’s just not that into you’ put it right next to your bible and meditate on that sucka day and night, only then will you realize, he will treat you however you let him so don’t compromise your integrity and loose yourself in any man!

How about my Ace Mo is living the good life! It’s a bit too early and I don’t want to jinx things but my boo is blessed! Boo bear you deserve it…I wish you happiness in abundance.
Ok so Kiwi and I decided to go to my sister’s 15 year anniversary celebration at the family resort in Busch Garden. We woke up mad early and hit the road; we drove 3.5hours only to find that the event had been cancelled! I was livid to put it mildly! Apparently folks were complaining about the cost and the Ogunfiditimi family decided to have a private party instead but I did not get this memo because they had no idea I was coming, it was going to be a surprise….well I surprised the mess out of myself! Anywho Kiwi and I drove down to Potomac mills and went bananas then we headed to Owings Mills and chilled with Mo for the night! Talk about impromptu road trip.

Another road trip the following weekend to MD, Remi’s cousin who is 30 is celebrating her 10 year wedding anniversary! How sweet is that? So we rented a car and headed to MD which worked out for me since Mo organized this fall get-together for just the ladies, an opportunity to hang out and relax, pass the courvoisier, play games and male bash with an option to spend the night.
We headed out to MD and about 2 hours into our trip, we stopped at a rest area to take a leak, I was happily chatting on my phone as I headed out to the bathroom. I stuck my phone in my back pocked and pulled my pants down and PLOP! There goes my phone in the toilet! OMG! I stood there and contemplated picking it up and I finally did because I do not know anyone’s number off hand. I washed the phone and my hand and everyone laughed at me. I called E from Remi’s phone because he was coming to pick me up and my phone died after that! Funeral arrangements are in progress…I will keep you abreast.
So E picked me up at 1 am and we headed to B’more and Moji was pissed at me cause I didn’t call her and she was worried, but she was over it in like 3 seconds.
I spent the entire day Saturday cooking and painting. I promised Mo a painting for her new crib so we made a quick tip to Michaels and I went to work. The ladies started arriving at about 5 pm and the last group let at 4am! I was exhausted and we were going to JHB in the morning. Moji, Nneka, Shola and I headed out to church in the morning, everyone else went home.
I had lunch date and then I rushed home to get ready for Remi’s cousin’s thingy. Moji and Bimbo dropped me. I tell you it was bananas! There was mad food and it was very elegant and not your regular crowded MD gig. I couldn’t fully enjoy it because I was not feeling so hot. Moji and Bimbo ended up staying with me for a couple hours even though they were casually dressed.
A big Shout out to:

Mo…I am so happy for you….get berra boo!!
