Hi folks
Yaay, the posts have become more regular ba?...Not even sure
how this happens. There’ll be a block for months where I forget I even have a
blog and then other months where I’m putting posts up like water…anyway…
You know something? I’m constantly marveled at the
improvements that science and technology have brought upon us as humans. It
might look like little things, but the proportional improvement to the quality
of life is astronomical.
Some weeks ago, while setting up house, Chioma and I went to
a huge shopping complex to buy some things for the house, and in the middle of
wandering around the huge mall, we kinda stumbled into a huge store named ‘dreams’
where they were selling mattresses, beds and everything sleep related. Bear in
mind that even though we weren’t looking to buy anything there yet, we both
knew that we needed to get a new bed for our extra bedroom.
Bruh, it was an eye opener.
The extraordinary difference in sheer quality of mattresses
they had there was amazing. We were attended to by one very savvy sales guy who
took time to really show us around and get us to test the products.
Omo, It’s like we’ve been sleeping wrong our whole lives.
First, they made us lie down on this big bed/sleep machine
thingy (almost like an CT scan or ultra sound) that scanned our body types, weight,
sleep positions and contours in order to recommend the type of mattress that
would be best suited for us. Then we were (for lack of a better word)
introduced to the mattresses.
My God! I fell instantly in love with one called the Tempur
pedic. God punish poverty and all the years of sleeping on useless mattresses.
The obvious difference was mind boggling. Not to exaggerate or anything but that
was the best mattress I had ever lay on (and I’ve slept on some quality hotel
beds too), however, the cost of this one was equally mind boggling, so we had
to go the next best thing and get something similar but less expensive. We
paired it with some orthopedic pillows, a new bed frame and some other stuff.
Fortunately, they had installment payment options which made everything much
easier (and helped to calm my Igbo minion who had been wringing his hands in despair
and exclaiming ewooo!! at the total cost).
Weeks later, I’m coming here to testify that my sleep has
drastically improved, there’s no more waking up with pain, I feel refreshed waking
up and I believe it has even helped minimize snoring and other breathing
issues. Wow.
It’s the little things ba?
Again, (and I don’t care how simple this comes across as),
what in the sorcery is this Air fryer of a thing? If you really deep it, the
tech is absolutely amazing. Imagine growing up all your life using oil to get
your foods fried and now, you’re introduced to this machine which apparently
heats air around your food and uses (or ‘conjures’ to me) oil from somewhere
within the foods to perfectly fry them and have them coming out delicious.
Brethren, shout halleluya!!
Chioma got this lovely double door air fryer and it’s been
such a revelation. To be honest though, we haven’t ditched using oil entirely,
however what wouldn’t I give to see the look on Lolo’s face when she uses this
for the first time!!
