This photo was taken at a private beach in Nigeria.

I have been trying as much as possible to cope with life here in Nigeria. The heat is too much or am i talking about the well trained mosquitoes feasting on us everyday.It is as if am in another planet because am so out of touch with happenings around the world. You are wondering if there are no Televisions or Internet? When i have electricity my internet provider will have a problem then the Internet is fully working now but no electricity,we have light from 12am to 12 noon everyday. The use of generators is the order of the day here,oh! about generators that’s another long story,after placing the order for a 27KVA the generator set which i consider very big for our personal use,it took the company (Milkano) more than 2 months to deliver it,today is 3 weeks since delivery yet it has not been commissioned.I have to go out everyday because of the nature of my business,i sit in the car for hours on traffic jams that moves at snail pace,the only good thing is that am not the one driving,the first and last time i tried driving from my house to Shoprite mall i almost died with annoyance.My husband doesn’t see the need for me to have a driver,i haven’t driven a car for over 3 years and i have never driven a car in this mad city called Lagos before. Talking about getting a driver,well! that’s gist for another time,i have to post this quick while there is still light. For everything i am still very grateful to God who made it possible for to see these stress.

  Wow. A lot of have lights every day and can just jump on the Internet as we please. While things aren’t perfect here, we do have many things to be thankful for.

  I once lived in Alaska and they have mosquitoes there that feast on humans all the time. We had to use mosquito coils at night so we could rest without all the bites.
