Bennie is getting married...

 

Family is everything and I'm happy to announce to you that my kid brother is getting married. (Photo credit: Google)

Family is everything, I am buzzing right now after quality time on the phone with my siblings earlier today and I say to you… Family is everything!

I have three brothers, Maxi my big brother who lives in UK, my immediate younger brother BJ – married to Damola of Lagos – and Bennie, the numbers guy; we met online earlier today to discuss the girls’ wedding coming up in September.

I’m announcing to y’all officially, my baby sisters are getting married in September in Ibadan; remember they’re twins? They’re getting married on the same day and I’m sure you’re wondering how many times they’re getting married LOL, what they had before were introduction and court affairs… You get?

As I was penning this with excitement, Bennie shared a great news… He’s getting married and I can’t hide my excitement. He proposed to his woman and of course, no one says no to a true son of Gold and in other news, she’s coming home!

The girls are getting married, Bennie is getting married too… Don’t ask me nonsense question I’m not getting married any time soon and that’s even if I’ll ever get married at all; I have said it many times, marriage is not for everyone so make nobody stress me.

Back to the earlier conversation with the boys, it was heartwarming to chat with them and relive memories, of course we gossiped about mom and her drama and they put me on the spot on marriage issues, me that I’m slippery as fuck LOL.

I’m excited for Bennie and the fact he wants to get married this year is big for me, two big weddings in three months is sending me bunkers but it would be fun. Congratulations are in order for Bennie the banker, Bennie of Lotus… I’m proud of you bro.

If her name is Precious, you're single

People will leave you wondering if you're abnormal, omo iya mi, ma fo, na dem be the problem not you. Oya stay jiggy make we enter road. (Photo credit: Google)   “When you’re losing a tug of war to a tiger, release the rope before it gets to your arm; you can always get another rope, of course, except if you want prosthetics; you don’t want another arm.” - Ancient Chinese proverb remixed by Rambo. 2023 taught me a lot, and one of them is this: “If that person looks too good to be true, don’t force it; the person is certainly a fraud." And this rings true for everything. Whether living or non-living, don’t force it; it’s too good to be true. I was going to write about Precious, but I realized it’s a waste of time. Someone would text or call to tell me I’m pained, and it would get me emotional. I’d rather leave it as it is and sweep it under the rug like I always do. No worries on this one. Lesson number 1 from 2023: Tomorrow isn’t promised! See, a day before my mother passed

One careless night

The antelope is badly wounded right in front of the hunter, it can live again, only if the guardian angel smiles again... (Photo credit: Geo Wild) I randomly remember how my mom forced Mount Zion movies on me that year, but after the incident of the other day, one famous movie of those folks rings true in my head. One careless night. Just so we’re clear, no matter how hard you try, you’ll never understand this post; it’s a personal rant that will chronicle several events, and, while I am putting this in the public space, I still advise you to stop reading from this point. Omo! These are the days I prayed against, but it is what it is. I remember that beautiful Sunday. The indecision at first nearly ruined the script, but I saw the value of resilience. I remember the jokes about the green dress that looks like a 2-Sure promoter uniform. LOL, the aura was special though. It’s been a long time; something was off, and despite P.O. ringing in my ears, I still ran into the ditch. It was e

One hellish year and my one and half legs

This has been like a home recently but, the goal is to get stronger when it gets tougher. I'm fighting to win. (Photo credit: Ramsey's iPhone) I remember promising Bukky (formerly the Peridot of BR, now the Peridot of UK) that I'd write a lot this month; it definitely won’t be every day like I did last year, but I’ll try, and here you go. To start with, it’s been a tough year by all standards. Not sure there’s ever a year in which I felt half as much physical pain as this year; 2019 had the inglorious award until 2023 pulled up, and here’s me hoping I’ll never have to see a more painful year than this one. The past three weeks have been the toughest. I spent more days with the physiotherapists than at work, but I am probably the strongest human I know. I am not giving up anytime soon, but the pains better ease up before I do something crazy. Yesterday was the International Day of People Living with Disabilities. It should be a public holiday, but while I wasn’t physicall
