Useless story


Today being Friday, I am sure like me, you have mentally checked out of work and looking forward to a nice weekend. 


You are probably on this blog because you have nothing to do. So, I am going to tell you an absolutely useless story to fill the time. And even though I have said it is a useless story, you are probably going to read all the way to the end anyway – for that I commend you in advance for your tenacity. That quality will serve you well if you apply it to more productive things 😂. 


Okay, about that useless story…


So I am quite good at a lot of things, some relevant and others not so much but that is all a matter of perspective. For instance, would you say knowing where all the really good fried yam joints are is relevant? I would say that is absolutely relevant. But you might think knowing how to solve for X is an equation is more relevant. But is it really? Ok, you are wondering how this is relevant to my useless story? It is, it will all come together to make a really good useless story. So back to the point I was making about the things I am quite good at. I can give really detailed directions – as in I can tell you how many trees, traffic lights or speed ramps you will pass before making a turn. But that is not what I want to tell you about in this useless story. 


 I know, I know, I know, you want me to get to the point of this useless story. Since this is a useless story, I will tell you the one thing that I know which is useless. I am sure you can come up with a list of things, but believe me, you will be pleasantly surprised when I tell you. 


Well, you have made it this far in this useless story, so I might as well reward your persistence…I have lived in two different regions, and I know the location of most of the KVIPs in the town, and also along the route that connects the two regions. Wild right? I know. Now back to my earlier question – is this knowledge of the location of KVIPs relevant? Keep in mind this is a useless story. Anyway, I have had friends call me on their way to work and needed to go really badly. Now, is my knowledge of KVIP locations relevant?


You are probably wondering, how the f**k did I waste my time reading this useless story. 


Happy Weekend!!!

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...
