P.S. I LOVE YOU



I was watching a hilarious movie titled ‘Blended’ featuring Adam Sandler, Terry Crews and Drew Barrymore. My phone beeped, it was an iMessage from a friend(we will call him London). He was asking what I was up to. I told him about the movie and he joined me virtually(he got it on the internet). We kept texting each other and laughing at scenes we both found fascinating.

How it started

I can’t remember whose idea it was but since we both enjoyed watching ‘blended’ together, I guess naturally, we were drawn to other movies. London left the choice of movies to me and I didn’t mind because It was a perfect opportunity to introduce him to my favorite movies. 


How we do it

We both set times for the date(keep in mind time differences). London is indeed playful. “I am coming to your house with yoghurt” (he texts). 

Me: Why not wine? 

Him: You have wine, it’s yoghurt you don’t have(no lies). 

Sometimes I think it’s my alter ego being creative and funny with my imagination. 

We text each other when we are ready to start and then we dive into our movie date, it’s me and my laptop in Ghana.  London and his best friend, he’s always working on his laptop thus I tease him with it. I tell him that’s his best friend(we are yet to name his best friend). 


Have a Plan B

We were supposed to watch Notting Hill but my hard drive gave up on me. I switched to P.S.  I Love You. I was so relieved the second option was available as second choice.

We made fun of Daniel’s oddity and wits. There was a scene in the movie we both thought Holly and Gerry would make love and they didn’t(it was left to our imagination). I could tell London was disappointed. I was calling Denise his girl because he loved the way she was forthright with her search for a partner. She asked all the ‘right’ questions and sealed it with a kiss just to confirm if you were the one for her. When the movie ended, we both agreed a trip to Ireland would be awesome. We envied Holly and her mum and the green scenery which welcomed them. 

Heads up; always get a back up movie.


So far, we’ve watched: Blended, Me Before You and P.s. I Love You. 

This weekend, we have another movie date. I chose Notting Hill, starring Julia Robert and Hugh Grant (one of my favorites). 


Virtual movie date in covid times is a fun adventure(with the right partner). I have tried it and I absolutely love it. What are you waiting for? My London? He is taken.

Heels are not my wedding shoes

  I thought we had Covid-19  under control but Ghana is steadily moving to a second wave of covid cases. Why? People are not taking the Covid-19 protocols serio usly and that’s pretty upsetting . My teammate joins the public transport every day to work and she tells me, she’s sometimes the only one wearing the mask. That’s very unfortunate. I wish we will all be responsible because covid doesn’t end with how cautious you are. We protect ourselves to save ourselves and others. Wear your masks, wash your hands, keep a sanitizer and observe social distance.   Don’t panic if the result is positive, you will be fine. I know you will be.  Drink warm water with crushed ginger and garlic. Add some lemon for a zesty effect. Most importantly, obey the body. Rest. Sleep. Drink water. Lots of it. And stay positive. You will be fine. Talk to friends who care. I just want to send a special mention to that friend who tested positive, you are loved. I will keep praying for you...

Tributes While I Am Still Alive

                My birthday is coming soon, April 1.   I am 39 and very proud of it. Most women shy away from their age and I can’t really tell why?! My younger sister is always dreading her birthdays and one of my cousin’s have been 26 for the past 5 years.  I am one person who bluntly says my age whenever I am asked, irrespective of who and how it’s asked! Yes 39 and beautiful at heart 💜. No children yet and relationship is very much complicated. Relationship wise, I guess I’ve become too comfortable being single. (Hope my mum will skip this part) The things I look out for now are so funny and petty. 1. How he chews when eating  2. Use of shorthand to chat  3. His cologne  4. Low key on social media  5. I’ll end it at 4. In my 39 years on earth, I’ve made some mistakes and learnt a lot from it. I’ve hurt people and  I’m deeply sorry, if you are one of them. Others I know, others I have no ...

Everything Good Will Come

“ I danced the *kpalongo, fearing nothing for my sanity, or common sense. I added a few foreign steps to disorientate the discontented so-and-so: flamenco,can-can, Irish dancing from side to side. Nothing could take my joy away from me. The sun sent her blessings. My sweat baptized me.” ~Enitan Taiwo.  The day Fanny told me “everything good will come”, I felt she was in a better place so she could afford to say things like this to me.  I thought she didn’t understand my pain. I am sure she sensed I wasn’t impressed. Those words sounded like she was being dismissive of my pain. That was far from it. Now, I know better.  Thank you, Fanny.  I have learned; those words are one of the kindest words someone can say to you. You have to enjoy the process. It’s all yours! What’s life without the downs? The bumpy rides make you appreciate life on a smooth road (when you eventually get there). We will all get there soon.  I have been mouthing “everything good will come” fo...
