I hope you all had a nice valentine day and all your valentines live up to expectations.I finally use the method suggested by the columnist and my readers,i did not buy any present or card and pretended as if nothing spoil.I woke up very earlier than usual as if i had important assignment with a big grin on my face and was just happy with myself.I wore the suit i bought as gift for myself and was looking very chick,my kids even complement me and my hussy was just looking at me somehow without saying anything and since i had a game plan,i was just moving up and down unnecessarily-just showing myself off.My kids suprise me with a beautiful hand made card and i put it in a conspicious place for him to see that some people appreciate me and think of me on valentine day.Men with their ego,i sure say the man dey feel somehow but he just want to be his old colonial master.As i got to my car,i just decided i should make him feel more uncomfortable,i rushed in and just say hoooo how can i just forget my perfume when iam suppose to be smelling nice today.My colleagues in the office were in high spirit and i bought snacks for my team and ensure we rounded up early so that they can go and spend sometime with their val.My hussy called me more than ten times for unnecesary things but i know he was just assuring himself that i was in office,not out celebrating any valentine day and by the time i got home by 7.15,i met five missed calls-imagine the close marking.Suprisingly,he got home before 10 and brought a valentine pack and asked my first born to give me and behold somebody gave him and he never bothered to check the contents and a name was on the teddy inside but i just laughed and did not make a point of it as i intend to be happy for the day and nothing could make me unhappy.What if he did not bring it home or didnt even come home at all?

I just started reading your blog and I must say you've come a long way. I really like what you did, your mind set and your determination to enjoy your vals day regardless of your situation. I won't tell you that its right or wrong (cos I'm not in a position to) but sincerely its your happiness that counts. Continue to embrace those things that make you happy. therein lies your strength. I'm encouraged that your children made the card, such joys go a long way. Ur Hubby is paying attention for sure, tho he may pretend that he isn't. he really is...

I am glad you took things into your hands and had a happy, self-fulfilling day!! The card from the kids must have been precious. Good for you! I couldn't help but chuckle at your description of your hubby's jealousy. A little shakara never hurt nobody. Enjoy your weekend.
