SUMMERTIME

It's summertime and it's been hot, briefly cool and extremely busy. The kids are growing rapidly it seems. TE walks around with fancy sandals (a post on my fashionable diva is coming), a handbag full of stuff (she's only 6), and a mouth that runs at 1000 miles a minute. TK is the defender of the universe (gosh, I miss watching voltron after school as a child), gets math or English homework everyday (yes oh, no joke) and is becoming a man right before my eyes. Our local superstar,

Bomboy is still flirting with grown women. But at least now he is 80% potty trained and only wears diapers to bed (modupe fun Oluwa and may the congregation all say "amen", "amin" and a "hallelujah" for good measure). Bomboy continues to be mischievous, and the minute he sees me give him 'the look', he smiles and either says "I love you" or "you're up, mama" accompanied by the thumbs up gesture. I worry for the women that boy will come across because most of them will have no chance when it comes to that boy and his antics *sigh*

Did I mention that I don't sleep? Na wa oh! Lack of sleep makes you feel like you have a hangover during the day. I have too many things running through my head at all times.

This summer I have had the pleasure of befriending quite a few bloggers. Let's see, Rayo aka @janglelegjones whose twitter handle always makes me think of 'jangulovah' (abeg, what does that word mean, sef?) I finally met Sokari Ekine aka @blacklooks. Haha. Because every time we hung out the kids got treats, they have taken to scheming by asking "can we call aunty sokari?" whenever they want me to take then for ice cream or pizza. I have also had the pleasure of meeting standtall. The online name she picked for herself fits her tremendously. Excellent sista and very smart. Standtall for president! Lol! There's also @saratu who rocks! We have hung out twice and she's another super intelligent babe that cracks me up. Her text messages are absolute gems such as when she was complaining that the end of world cup meant the end of her ability to watch fine, sweaty men all day. Lol! Funny yet smart and an incredible writer to boot. I also got to meet a non-blogger who is on twitter. @ikedot is funny, sarcastic and a cool dude who can say the funniest thing without even intending it. Oh and I met the very smart, and dare I say, cutie pie,  Seye earlier in May. Woh, Seye, I know babes are chasing you but I have plans to bring you into my family oh! Heehee!

Oooh, and I have a brand spanking new nephew that is just the greatest little baby. He lives in North Carolina but talks to me on the phone. =) I think I'll put a picture of him up soon.

Anyway, people, I just wanted to check in because I keep getting emails and messages from computer friends wanting to know how things are going. Make una no vex about the infrequent updates. And thanks to everyone for checking up on me and mine. Much appreciated, folks. And, as I type TK is chasing TE with Bomboy screaming in pursuit. Time to pop a pain killer for the headache that is on it's way.

Oh boy!
