Hey Guys,
Happy New Year. It’s just mid January, I guess it’s not too late to say that.
How are you all doing? It’s been 5 long months of being away. Wow!
Did you miss me? Yes? I miss you all too.
I know I always have a story (excuse) but I believe in speaking/living my truth because in actual fact this life isn’t always rosy and my life is far from perfect, that’s why I always share, the not-so-good inclusive. So here goes…
I took several steps back from blogging and content creation because a lot was going on at the same time and work (read largely as Lagos traffic) was so hectic, the little time I had was spent on sleeping and refreshing for the next work days. There was practically no time for anything else.
I told you guys about my job here but little did I know the “gbas gbos” that was waiting for me. I’m honestly beginning to think that this 9-5 life is not for me, well maybe in Lagos.
I became so stressed both mentally and physically, my skin got darker even with the tons of skin care products I use and I lost a lot of weight, this especially was a major concern for me.
Concerning blogging and content creation, I was so unmotivated, I tried to blog one weekend and nothing was coming forth. Boy was I drained, I totally lost my “mojo”, that was when I knew to take a chill pill, take care of myself and do things at my pace.
I’m in a better place now, happy, eating well and trying my best to take good care of me and your girl is getting married soon, so I’m busy with all the preparation. Thanks to my amazing event planner @siimsevents, it’s been a breeze. I digress.
A quick reminder, in all the busyness of this life- work, family and all, don’t forget to take breaks and attend to your self. YOU CAN’T POUR FROM AN EMPTY CUP.
What about you? How have you been? please reply in the comment section, I honestly want to know.
Talk to you soon.
I think I am the first person here, 💃💃💃 Lagos traffic is something else couldn’t wait to get out of there. I miss you so much. And God bless your marriage even tho I can’t attend I know I will surely watch on IG from thattemi or iyanuoluwa story😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I miss you. Adult hood na scam. God bless your union.
Amen. Thank you💋
Yipeee I’m so happy to read your blog post. Happy new year to you too😘😘
Hmm how have I been ,currently at a place where I just let life flows and open to not doing the ‘normal’ stepping out of my comfort zone , channeling my energy to the right things above all talk to the father and let him lead. I’ve put that into practise and I see him coming through.
I’m also concerned about my stomach fat, ate like there’s no tomorrow during the festive period and now I need to get in shape for ‘tf’affairs’😫😫 but I’m so not motivated sha calories ain’t sin you know 😌😌😋😋😂😂😂
But in all I’ve been good , living intentionally and that feels good!
😹😂 na fat you fat, you no kill person my dear. It’s good to know that you are well. Oya let’s get ready to turn up.
Welcome back Fade! I can so relate to all these cos it’s exactly what I’ve been going through and more. I just wish I could just take a break from everything! Lagos traffic! work stress! Emotional stress too It’s been really draining. You see the skin part no lies my skin has just refused to corporate with me everything seem off. No one to talk to too! I’m glad I could share here.
Hi Sandra, thanks for sharing. I know that feeling and how hard it is to get over it but you just have to try. Make conscious effort to rest and take breaks where necessary even if it means going off for a weekend and doing the things you like. You will be fine😘.
Beautiful as always. Haven’t blogged in a while too. It can be stressful at times. People rarely get it. They tell you, ‘”is it not just to write”? Mehnnnn… That shit can be alot. Mental work can be as stressful as physical work.
Welcome back fade,and a happy new year to you,well I have just been living life, exploring doing new things,and doing alot @a new,I guess it’s time I concentrate more on myself…… Also Congratulations on your marriage..
Welcome back. Yes, your mental health is very important. Happy new year to you and you are an inspiration. Do you have any book recommendations? Congrats on your marriage girl.
