Kpuff classic

Ever so often kpuff cracks me up, I always mean to share with you all but by the time I get around to it I've forgotten or don't find it as funny anymore...lol

So on our way home from school today (finally decided on St. Saviours....more on that later) kpuff decides she wants to play with my phone and it went something like this

Me: no you can't play with my phone, its not working cause you've dropped it too many times

Kpuff: it's working!!

Me: no its not are you going to give me money to fix my phone?

Kpuff: yes (with a mischevious smile)

Me: where are you going to get money from?

Kpuff: from my 'molopoly'

If only it were that easy.

Julie

Meet Julie, she is 6 months old and suffering from a severe case of traction alopecia. Julie is Kpuff's best friend, baby, my sister (the days kpuff feels like playing mummy to me), and the one who gets blamed for everything..."kpuff* why did you pour the water on the floor?"....."It's not me, it's Julie that did it!"......"kpuff, you 'wee weed' on my bed" ....."it's not me, it's Julie that 'wee weed'" (or a more creative "I didn't we wee, water came out of my bum bum..."), you get the general gist. Once upon a time Julie had a full head of nice curly hair, but for some reason, Kpuff had absolutely no interest in her (I tell you kids can be strange). For the life of me I can't even think of how all her hair came out in such a short time, maybe 'Julie' pulled it out herself...

Deal or No Deal

I have a very good friend, who has a boyfriend she's been dating for a 'minute'. When they started dating....he was all over her like white on rice (like always...lol) and now barely a year later he's cooled off considerably (the usual, work, other commitments...etc). No problem. A hot topic of debate for them has been marriage, they both want to get married to each other but he's not ready just yet. He wants to put a few things in place (finances....hmmm not sure what else...lol). She on the other hand doesn't see why they can't put those 'things' in place together. He feels pressured. He feels they can start to take the steps towards putting those 'things' together by saving towards common goals, possibly living together...etc before they get married. She feels, if he can do all that then what's the difference they might as well be married. She's starting to feel like he wants all the benefits of the 'cow' without buying it (I've always hated that saying)

So.....thoughts? What am I to tell her?

I came home today to find kpuff her grand-dad (my dad) playing golf (nintendo wii), kpuff came 2nd (I prefer second to last...:)) with a record of +63!! I didn't even know scores came that high...hey as long as she's happy. Wii boxing on the other hand she excels at, home girl had like 7 knock outs in a row..lol.

So in other news, I've had an office now for about two months, the first week I started out great, got there everyday at 8:00am, more recently I'm barely making it there by 10:00am!!! I don't know what's going on, it's like I'm stuck in a rut, I've been working on the same projects for months now and it's sooooo boring....someone please help, I need to get motivated again, quickly too. I guess it doesn't help that I'm up blogging at 1 a.m...lol. Ok ok goodnight...

I'm in search of a new school for Kpuff, she's not due to start primary school for another 2 years or so, but most of the good schools are quite competitive (I mean they interview the kids and all...lol). On the shortlist are Grange and St. Saviours Ebute Metta. I prefer St. Saviours but meeeen that commute won't be easy since we live in Ikeja. I spent the last two days collecting one admission form or the other from them it wasn't fun. She may have her interview with them on Thursday, I can't even imagine how that will go, let's hope it's a 'good' kpuff day, cause if they catch her on a bad day...we certainly will have no choice but to scratch them off our list...lol. Does anyone have any other mainland school recommendations? Thoughts on Corona Gbagada? Chrisland? (I haven't heard any rave reviews about either in the last few years).

Part of the reason I stayed away from blogging for so long was that a lot was (and still is) going on in my life that I didn't want to share just yet. For one, Mr. is completely out of the picture except where it concerns Kpuff and I'm quite fine with that. It's sad though I hear about so many separated and/or distressed couples these days. What are we all doing wrong?

It's been over a year since I updated....:(. Frankly I didn't think I'll update again, but for some reason I've been thinking about blogging lately...I've really missed everyone. What's new? Does anyone still come here?...I'll do my best not to stay away for so long next time but I can't make any promises.

So, on to my favourite topic :). Kpuff is three...., can you believe it?! she's 3 years old! she's talking a lot now, as in non-stop, my mum says she's either talking, crying, singing or sleeping..lol....

Well as you can imagine, a lot has happened in the last year so I guess we have lots to discuss...:)

Updates

Thanks for the all the comments and emails, it's amazing how time flies, almost 2 months since I updated :( - sorry. So much has happened over the last 2 months, Kpuff's birthday was a hit, a few of us (about 10 folks) went to fun place, Kpuff was really really clingy (which isn't abnormal - but damn), but I hear she had fun when I left to drop off her cake at home, I'm starting to think Kpuff pulls all these stunts only when I'm present..hmm. My birthday was just alright, ended up not doing anything :), I did get nice gifts though ;).

My ISP's (Direct on PC) put me through hell over the last month or so, Bungalow practically became my office, what's a girl to do now. Please send all VSAT recommendations for the mainland my way, I need a decent backup ASAP.

Well that's all folks, speak to you soon :).
