Just for the weird and Happy to be.


A lady I know passed by the office the other day and she is looking for a job. A friend of a friend of hers' sent her to see this guy who is a big shot in a certain department in a well known company.

Everything was falling in place and they met in the chosen location and they talked about her getting a job and before they concluded he wanted to sell to her a different proposal, she was all ears and then this executive goes ahead and tells her that she looks like a good girl who can bear him a child and he would pay her a small salary if she would relocate to a cheaper estate.

Who is prepared for that kind of surprise? With bated breath she just nodded her head and held on to the anger until the meeting came to an end. Since she did not know if this guy was coming through for her in the job department, she agreed on another meeting which was held in a restaurant since it was during lunch time.

When she arrived to meet him, he asked her if she had eaten and on saying no, he asked her if she was interested in eating a boiled sheep head and that was the breaking point. With all that the menu has to offer………

She is still looking for a job as of now

The Simplest Life Possible.


This weekend I had not made plans to go visit a children home that I volunteer at but my plans fell through and I ended up there.

Let’s just say my weekend was one of belly laughter until my stomach hurt.

There is this lovely lady who works there and since she works in shifts, either day or night I found her there and as the day came to an end we went home together. She has embarked on a project of rearing pigs and on Saturday she was carrying the left over food for her piglets and that is what began my laughter.

We give too much worry in things when the simplest plan is usually what works best. My friend put the food in multiple Plastic paper bags, tied a piece of cloth around it and swung it on her back and we proceeded to where we were to take the bus and what got me is that it started raining and since I had a small umbrella I explained to her that it could not cover both of us and her answer is the one that got me bent over with laughter.

She explained to me that she does not have any work for umbrellas and that she never carries one no matter what and she went ahead to ask me why trees don’t use umbrellas and she said that  she had no  time to waste using one.

We got to the bus stop and she squeezed herself in the bus and was so ready to get to her pigs, she was soaking wet without a care in the world. Her goal was to get her pigs fed period and anybody who had a problem with that was not her concern.

I needed the belly laugh, she made my weekend. Simply living.
