Mikesol:
Broo, literally no one is home, when everyone comes home, at least 1 tv, 2 fans and a fridge is what is on, we have like 20 hours light a day but it doesn't warrant this kind of comsumption.... all my appliances are energy savers. And na ph i dey so

Something is wrong somewhere, are you sure it's not tapped?

Why would the mother buy this evil looking doll?

Mikesol:
Pls does anyone know what to do about prepaid meter running fast? I've changed all electronics to energy saving including fridge and inverter ac, checked for tapping, done everything i can. My 2 bedroom flat uses 12 units a day only to run a fridge, tv, fan, and energy bulbs
Pls help?

12 units is much oo haba, are the appliances always on. Is pumping machine included.

Do you put on the lights all day?
Are the fans on all day?
Is the TV on all day?
Is the Ac on all day

The only thing I think should be on should be the fridge hat one sef you can put it on for 12 hours max. You even said it's inverter fridge. I doubt you should use 12 units a day.

Something seems wrong somewhere.


We also have at least 20 hours and we use about 17 units weekly if there's constant light.

All the security bulbs are on from 7pm till around 6am, most indoor lights are on till we go to bed all bulbs in total are about 20
( 3watt bulbs)

Freezer is put on overnight, once we set out in the morning we put if off. Not energy saving freezer

We pump averagely once a day/ 2days in the evenings, this one sucks light.

All fans have not been put on for some months now, ever since this cold weather started.

We iron once in a while

Other regular things are Tv's, charging, etcetc
Random ones are blender etc

gloryhomemaker:
Oh boy! This soup looks so sumptuous.

Good job, no much water. Hope it tastes good too?

Yeah tastes good, the after bitter sweetish taste of the bitter leaf was on point

It is well with you OP.

Protect yourself from STIs and prepare your mind that he might never change. A miracle can happen though.

mariahAngel:
Exactly how you used it for your carrots.
Or you could cut them in strips.
I believe children would love it.



Can you believe that all the while I had it, [b]it never occurred to me that I can use it to cut foods so attractively, [/buntil I saw @kikifoodies use it, and by then, I had already lost mine?
Then, I only used the slicer and grater part.
The exact type that glory showed in her video.

Hmm, will try that one when my plantain ripes ( plantain is now gold ooh)


Never occurred to me too, shape cutting here I come

mariahAngel:
That crinkle cutter is really nice for cutting plantains.
It makes the dodo look more attractive.
I had it before, but someone threw it away.

I'll get another one shaa.

Plantains ke? How do they use it for plantain.

Never even knew the thing could be used for shape cutting I use it for carrot in coleslaw mostly the carrots come out nicely sliced, I saw when she used for carrot and was like ehen, me sef will try it.

That thing is everywhere but it is when you are really looking for it to buy it that you might not see it

gloryhomemaker:
Wow! Everybody likes sweet mouth nah

Am glad you tried this out. Well done!

I await the pictures from the water leaf and bitter leaf soup. Please use freshly washed bitter leaf.

Thanks.

Finished cooking it already, it should go down with semo later in the day

gloryhomemaker

I made this for dinner yesterday it was delicious efribody loved it

I also got the shape of the carrot, I have that particular slicer at home, I modified and also added some runner beans to the veggies and small leftover fresh crayfish I had

It was very sweet



Today I am making the waterleaf, bitterleaf soup.

What if she actually doesn't know there's a small pocket in Jeans.

What exactly is the problem with people these days.

Nawa. Chochocho on top I know pocket or I no know pocket.

Prices are going up, landlords are increasing rent to keep up with the inflation, one of the ripple effects.

You can plead with her to consider you
or start looking for another apartment

purples25:
Recent events have made me to understand one thing.

Don't entertain gossip. You should also refrain from gossiping. Also shun people who gossip. If they start to gossip, try your best not to contribute to the topics. What you say is what they report to that subject of their topic.

No matter how they push you, don't allow people you know casually to make you to start talking about yourself. They say you're reserved, yes, that's the best, because all these personal talks about people and yourself leads to unnecessary gossip and fights.

You can't trust your blood fully, not to talk of people that don't owe you any loyalty outside. If they betray you, as is their nature, what can you say to them? You just have to swallow it because like I said, they don't owe you anything.

In my opinion, people should just know you as a hello and bye bye person. So as to reduce damaging talks to you or about you. If there is need for good deeds you should participate, and anyone complaining about lack of friendship should gettat. There is no need forming unnecessary friendship with people who at the bottom of their hearts have no deep loyalty towards you. At the end of the day, such unnecessary closeness and sharing info is just killing yourself.

People outside should learn to be content with friendship based strictly on work and other helpful causes that do not involve anything personal. Especially when they know that they don't have a deep good intention, loyalty or connection with the person whose business they want to be all dipped into.

Solid points.

Whatever you say can and will be used against you.

I am of the opinion that colleagues at work should be work relationship only and information they need to know only.

Imlost:
Thank you, but I'll stick to her for now and see if she wouldn't cheat with one of her exes like what I've been reading concerning non virgins here

Loool you are using NL as a template for virgin/ non virgin or sexual advice. Even some things you are reading here will mess your mind, know how to sieve from posts you read here. You have read non virgins will cheat abi

Let me shock you according to NL romance section boys

1. virgin / Non virgin will cheat, as long as she's a woman which is wrong.

2. It's not possible for a man to be a virgin at 29, at least you have read this one here,you experienced it , you will even be insulted for your own truth.

Some of these people's speciality is to break a marriage even before it starts.

Just an advice oo. Don't follow whatever to read here sieve.

Imlost:
Agreed, I never discussed anything about her being a virgin or not. I just assumed she was since she's my pastor's daughter.

Right now, I can't divorce her because I feel like it will seem like I'm disrespecting her dad, who is my pastor.

And also, I feel like I should cheat outside my marriage and have fun just like she did in her youthful years so that we can be even.

I am 29 while my wife in question will be 26 next month.

I'm I being childish? Or will I get over it?

I wish I never asked her about her past in the first place and I wish I could just erase the memory of her past in my head.

Your bolded makes me laugh, to what end? Think of it you kept yourself till you married only to get married and start adultery? Something you didn't do when single and why?
Because you assumed your wife was a virgin and you found out she's not.


Also thinking of divorce beacause of the matter? Nope there was no deception, you assumed.

If that information mattered greatly to you, you would have asked some questions, never ever assume anything.

Anyway all that is on the past and you are married, you love her as you said right continue as it had been before that information, don't let this cause a big friction between you guys, your marriage is still young.


Wish you the best. Happy married life.

mployer:
I don't believe your story anyway.

A virgin man at 29 is not that feasible and not even something to be proud of.

No woman is ever excited to talk about her body count.

The things I read on NL sha


Nawa oo

ukaface:
If we dress like Sisi they will be calling us ashewo.

If you dress like grandma, husband won't come

Wetin we wan come do bayi?
Make them go sit down abeg. When it's not like my life is centered in pleasing a guy.

What's dressing like Sisi?


One can dress very very modestly, look good and still honor God.

It's not always both ends of the spectrum.

Chai
Nawa oo.

VictorUSA:
If you were born in a polygamous family or raised by a single parent, come in here let's share our experience with one another.



I was born in a polygamous home. My mum was the second wife and I'm her only child. My dad divorced her when I was 3-yr-old and it wasn't easy raising me.




If you are from a polygamous family or you were raised by a single parent, come in here let's rub our minds together and learn from one another.


Let's begin!!!!!!!

Present.

Polygamous home is not it at all at all.

This is despite the fact that we all never even lived together.

Also the drama I witnessed from the polygamous family of our landlord was very traumatizing.

Too much drama, envy, battles (physical and spiritual)

But when you say these things people think you are joking.

Deshalom:
Yes we are.

Congratulations, many more years.

Yoighaman:
.

BTW, you need to see Otunba Subomi Balogun's house in Ijebu too. Don't know what it looks like now, but at the time, it was one of the most beautiful houses I ever saw.

.

That house its like they repaint the white color every year.Always brilliant white, always admired it back then, while going to erinlu.

henrimoto:
you didn't take note of the other issues he complained of ...

Really? Read my post and also the questions he asked mothers which I answered.

VERDA:
I don't think he said anything about everyday knacking madam, he said they don't have sex for two months most times...haba is she the first woman to be married?.

That means you didn't read his post, his expected schedule for nacking to be precise and we are telling him it's not possible he shouldn't expect that, even his fellow men agree.

Read it again and see the time he put for nacking everyday.

gambojimeta:
Why did she make such a venomous and virulent post on social media. Whats wrong with these people...

Lool I am very shocked. Some people just lack tact.

OneCandleAway:
https://kemiashefonlovehaven.com/meet-ooni-of-ifes-eight-wives-photos/

Naomi knew what she signed up for so wasn't expecting to be the only wife. But I guess some wives like Ashley were jealous about not being recognised with the king. I mean who wouldn't want to be flaunted. But some of the wife's are ok being in the shadow.

You can't be a gold digger and come and meet this ooni, he will drive you away. You must be coming with your own money or connections.

Wow so I know the ooni can marry as many wives as he wants but just didn't know he had this much already.

All of them seem made already sef with their own connections/ money. It is well o.

OneCandleAway:
She had a previous child before the getting with Ooni but I thought she gave birth. Because I know he has a little girl after naomis son. Or maybe the girl is from another woman. Because there are plenty women in that Palace he's married to. One is even older than. The king sef. But all are accomplished women with their own money.

She was around in the Palace when Naomi was around and used to participate in all the traditional religions rites that naomi didn't want to.

Interesting

Does that mean the one we outsiders know is the official wife? i.e zaynab, Naomi and now miriam. Those are the ones that we see in pictures most times . Just curious though.

OneCandleAway:
Ashley is already recognised as a wife, although I didn't hear of any elaborate ceremony before they got together. But she was at functions with him. [b]But she has a daughter for Ooni. [/b]Or is she expecting party again?

The Rumor I heared did not say her daughter was for the Ooni, it was that she was a single mother and a single mother cannot be the wife/ official olori according to tradition, it also said she was already living in the place. I was actually wondering why.

It's all adding up now if truly the daughter is for the ooni and she's already a wife.

I thought rumor had it that the 2nd bride to be was princess Ashley Adegoke

lessonotes:
I agree totally with you. A lady friend called me and asked me that her fiance said before they get married they should agree on financial roles. He would pay for food, house rent while she pays for school fees and some other things. She asked me that is it right? I said no, it isn't.

So these modern switching of roles comes with a price definitely.

Lool, he didn't make a plan of how to share the taking care of the home, cooking, cleaning, babysitting?

It comes with a huge price

Graduate2015:
Thank you for acknowledging my predicament. My son doesn't sleep at night and my husband doesn't help when he is crying at night. During the day I'm so so tired but will still wake up clean after everyone's mess and cook for my children. Also have to take care of my toddler which is exhausting since he can't be in childcare due to sensory issue. He has countless meltdowns in childcare and they couldn't manage him.
It's really hard for me to manage my husband's behaviour especially now my son is also special need. Too much for.me to handle.. since my last child it's been really a roller coaster journey probably because I have zero tolerance for his behaviour unlike before.
Though he still doesn't recognises that he may have a mental health issue. He thinks I'm the problem

I am so sorry for what you are passing through, try to seek more help for your baby if it will make you cope with the situation and if you can afford it, you are physically, emotionally and psychologically stressed, if you need some form of therapy please get it fortunately you seem to be in a country where those things are common.

You are not the problem please, ignore him if you can. You are not the messiah, you have tried to get him to seek help for his state of mind he didn't get it fully, now you have a whole lot on your hands caring for your child with special needs that alone is tasking.

He has to acknowledge that he needs help first if not it's just a rigmaroll.

iykofias:
@bolded, he isn’t obligated to getting goods to customers address, that’s something buyers needs to work on. You can’t pay for only goods and expect seller to do delivery with their own funds. I’m also a buyer too but we’ve got to be honest here, he paid 11k for the gadget so a meetup should be arranged for customer to pick his goods.

Never said he was obligated to getting goods to all his customers addresses (well except if they paid for delivery) or should do delivery with his funds, I said a more convenient method.

Convenient I meant is either customer picks up at his office/ shop if he has one or customer should pay for delivery and he uses a delivery guy. I think It's better for him as seller that way.


As for meetup at the bustop or anywhere else he should be able to discern which customer he can do that with, not all customers are great with 'meet me here by xyz time' some are just out to stress you unnecessarily, some are full of unnecessary drama, you will know these set during conversation, so he simply avoids selling to them if they don't want to pay for delivery.

What is tombrown please

It's a pap like cereal made up of different grains, soya and groundnut ( ensure the child is not allergic to groundnut or soya), I had introduced ground nut and soya separately to check for allergies once I am sure non of them reacts to it I prepare.

The only downside is it has to be cooked on fire a bit, you mix the powder with water to a smooth paste, add small water boiling in a pot and introduce the mixture and turn for like 2 minutes as if you are making pap on fire.

You can't make it like normal pap with just boiling water, it won't cook well.

You can follow this and modify to your taste.
