Remember
this post where I grumbled about not being promoted at work....on Dec 31,
2013 at about 7pm...I got promoted......it was so long awaited that I didn’t react.
I guess, I was numb from realising that Aunty Flo was visiting on New Year’s
Day. I got home, went on my knees and thanked God for closing the year with an
increase...he has increased my tithe.
Did
I ever tell you guys that my petite size 8 frame comes with a sharp mouth? My mouth
can run for Africa with retorts...it’s just so freaking amazing the things that
spew out of this my tiny frame-cum-big mouth. I never seem to be short of a comeback
to anyone....now I understand why Mama Sykik never stopped slapping me. I
intend to zip my mouth, keep my mouth under lock and key....I need to start
behaving my age.....the first thing that came to mind after the New Year greeting
was .....”wow, Sykik, you don old finish
oh”.........where did the years go?.......
I
hate wall geckos....it’s called “omonile”
translated “child of the house owner”..... I can’t remember where I heard the
fable from but the story is that any house that has children must have “omonile”......see me see trouble,...#operation-kill-all-wall-gecko# is forever activated in my home. Hubby is the “omonile killer”in our house.....he has
mastered the skills over the years ...I don’t envy him at all..... not with a
drama queen like moi for a wife.
I
don’t do New Year resolutions, but I believe God for directions in this New
Year..... I need to run my vision; I need to pursue my calling. God, I ask for
a confirmation ...am just been like Gideon, Thomas...don’t vex.... Sykik also
wants to be doubly sure.
“And your ears will hear a word behind you,
saying, this is the way; walk in it, when you turn to the right hand and when
you turn to the left” Isaiah 30:21, AMP
I
always feel sleepy right after church on Sundays. However, there’s lunch to be
made after Sunday service, so, I start lunch half sleepy and jealous that Hubby
gets to put his feet up and watch TV after church. I console myself while
cooking with the fact that shebi he
drove us to and from church. My mind replies me, “church is just 5mins drive
away”. I continue cooking and find myself smiling as Hubby often times comes in
to help by bringing his plate so his food can be dished.
Is
this post making sense sef....
ahahaha @ the last line...yep, the post makes sense to me...
