I got upset with my husband's photographer...

You see, for every skill, business and industry, there's something called 'ethics.' Precisely, 'work ethics.'

It was on this same Facebook, years ago, that a graphic designer was dragged back to back all because he posted his client's jobs on his handle without seeking his client's permission to go ahead. You know, I learnt lots from that scenerio.

For writers too, there's something called Non disclosure agreement (NDA) - where you don't talk about your client's jobs or share their works as your samples without their permission. This works for other businesses too. Go make your research and learn more, please.

So, this photographer posted our pictures on his wall, 3 days after our wedding, even before he sent us any. 😹

My husband saw it and showed them to me. I got upset. Like, what in God's name?!

I sent him a message with my man's phone. Didn't sound upset though, cos, for some reasons, I felt he may not know that what he did was bad, and so I explained to him, calmly, how it was a bad work ethic.

At least, he could have asked us if it was OK for him to post them before doing so, or better still, waited for us to make the post before he does the repost.

He even posted my bridal shower video too. Something I haven't even posted myself. This was the one that made me rage. 😹

When I saw him on Sunday, I told him how upset I was after I saw the video, but was funny how I was no longer upset seeing him in person. But, I did really felt bad.

Told him I didn't like that he turned himself to the 'bride' and posted pictures and video I didn't want to make to the internet yet.

Eventually, I learnt from him that it was his first time knowing about this particular 'job ethic', especially since he's still building and learning the intricacies of his job as a photographer.

He apologized and went on to tell me about a client's job he did their wedding shoot weeks after ours, and how he sought their consent to make the post public but they refused him for personal reasons, only to permit him on Saturday.

He said the bride told him that, had he posted without their consent, it'd have been big issues, as she was so discreet with her dealings and didn't want to give fresh updates about her wedding.

===

Glad he learnt and has been practicing this since I told him about resisting the urge to post pictures he was paid to take, without prior permission from the owners of the pictures. It'd have been a different ball game were it a public event, like a church program, conference, hangout, etc.

So, you see, it's not enough to know your job, please also learn about your job ethics and abide by them.

Some clients are so particular about ethics, and you don't want to be in trouble because of a compromise from your end.

Amen?

I love you. 💙

INCONSISTENCY WILL MAKE YOU STRUGGLE.

===

This was my case and it's applicable to everyone.

You know, I told every suitor that came my way then that I didn't know how to cook, and I played that role perfectly well.

Before now, I could stay home all day and not cook. When I get hungry, I can just fix quick noodles, get some snacks or eat out.

And, if I ever cooked, it's either out of anger (because my roommate or sibling refused to cook), or because I had a craving to cook. Yes. I cooked then because I craved it. 😹

I didn't like cooking to the point that I could even count the number of times I cooked in a month, even a year.

Eh, you dare not call me lazy! 🙄

===

Been married for about 18 days now and I've been cooking everyday, except Sundays. That should be about 14 to 16 days now, right? 😂

Tell you what? I've almost had my left hand butchered.

I hadn't mastered kitchen skills on how to use a knife without inflicting injuries on myself, all through my single days.

I had my roommate help me slice vegetables and sometimes, onions, whenever I had those cravings to cook. I also tip my siblings to help me cut peppers, onions and vegetables.

So, you see... I was so inconsistent in the kitchen and didn't have culinary mastery.

===

Mind you, I know how to cook, I just didn't like to cook, for some personal reasons - maybe some sort of defense. I don't know. But, I'm glad to be coming out of this.

Due to my inconsistency, I struggled with cooking, to the point of inflicting injuries on myself, and this is how it is when you're inconsistent as a creative.

===

If you are inconsistent with writing, you will struggle.

If you are inconsistent with practicing your graphic design skills, you will struggle.

If you are consistent with showing up, you will struggle.

I tell you for free, it's not going to be easy to be consistent.

I know how many times I've cried to my husband that I was tired of cooking, and he'll mock me a little, then encourage me to keep on. Thankfully, he assists me so I don't feel too overwhelmed with chores.

My dear, if you want to succeed and don't want to struggle, choose consistency always.

No one is coming to save you. Your consistency is key to your desired success.

Rooting for you. 💖

DON'T HATE GARLICS. YOU NEED THEM!

===

When I moved in with Babe, I noticed the beans he bought was already getting infested with weavils.

If you know how much these creatures destroy beans, you'll understand my level of worry.

I learnt earlier that if you put dry cameroon pepper inside the beans container, it'll repel the weavils and prevent them from destroying the beans.

However, getting the one that's not grounded yet was a struggle in my location, here in Lagos.

===

A little digress...

I don't like garlics. As kids years back, mom would force us to eat it raw. To her, it was a form of detox, since we hated drinking the herbal drinks she prepared for us. You know... The popular 'agbo jedi' (in Yoruba).

Whenever we ate the garlics, we would fart uncontrollably. Smelly disgusting farts. How about the persistent odour it leaves in the mouth? Gosh! 😂

After so many cries and reports of our mom to our late dad, he asked her to stop troubling us with garlics. But, my mom didn't stop eating them. She would eat them and fart uncontrollably. When she speaks, you'd perceive the stench of the garlics. Ew! 🤮

These formed the basics of my hatred for garlics.

===

Years went by and I was diagnosed with ulcer. Used so many drugs, naturals and all, but it kept coming and going.

One time, in a dream, I saw wheat, barley, fruits, GARLICS, veggies falling from the sky. The environs I found myself in that dream was filled with sick persons, including me.

So, everyone started packing those stuffs falling from the sky. Can't remember if I did too, but I wondered how it'd rain those from the clouds instead of the usual rain falls.

Narrated this dream with one of our pastor's wife and she told me it was simple. It's time to go natural for the healing I sought.

She mentioned how I needed to take more veggies, wheats, fruits, garlics and all, for natural healing to occur, and to stop spending my fortunes on drugs. I was diagnosed with ulcer alongside other illnesses.

Then, there was no way you'd open my bag that you won't find drugs. You'll almost mistake me for a nurse or a pharmacist because I knew about drugs, had them and how they should be used.

Omo, God has really helped me in this life. 😭

===

Back to the main gist...

I've been incorporating garlic into my cooking. Not always though.

So, I decided to get some garlic on Friday. Prior to then, it'd been a while I cooked with it. Don't know what inspired me to get them then, but I just did.

Got home, blended some with my peppers and kept the rest in the bucket where we stored the beans.

Before now, I told you the beans were infested with weavils right? They were so much that you'll see them flying around.

Yesterday, I was to cook beans. I opened the container and guess what I noticed?

Not a single weavil! I was surprised.

What happened? What went wrong? What's the miracle? 😂

===

When my husband returned, I related my observation to him, and he suggested I opened the nylon of the garlic and scatter the garlic in the beans, which I did.

Checked today again, before taking this picture, not a single weavil. They're either dead in the container or dried up inside a bean seed.

Trust me to make my research before making this post. See comments.

===

So, if you've been hating on garlics before? I tell you, stop.

Not like I want you to fall in love with them (because I'm yet to 😂), I just want you to discover the value garlic has and its usefulness, especially to ulcer patients (haven't done my research on this, but from experience, it's working).

Since we're on this topic.... Tell me, do you love or hate garlics and why? 😄
