I planned to write on the second prompt, (a two way trip to anywhere in the world) but anytime I pick a pen and notepad, my brain goes blank, I picked a pen this evening with the intent to force my body and soul into writing but a three way call came in, it was a group of annoying females trying to disturb my life. While on the call, I remembered why I was friends with these people.
When I've had my fill of life and nothing local (my usual self care) seems to work anymore, I call a bunch of crazy humans. These girls are more than friends, they're practically family, their crazy seems to get worse each day and when we're together, it's like a crazy comedy show 😅.
Whenever they come around or we go out, it's to clear our minds and relax but our idea of relaxing is not a nice spa treatment or long car rides, No! we're too broke for that 😂. Our idea of relieving stress is crazy outings like getting food, drinks, swimming, playing under the rain, visiting people (just to disturb their peace), taking a stroll, giving each other fake and ugly makeovers, planning and playing pranks etc. The idea of relaxing is to have fun and laugh our flat asses off.
Visited someone but they decided to show themselves 🤦🏿
Getting pizza
A random Sunday under the rain
Swimming
Swimming with the whole gang
Playing under the rain
I can't explain this one 😅
Another set of equally crazy friends
When the day is over, we're relieved of whatever kind of stress we had on our heads, we get home, take a bath, sleep and everything becomes beautiful once more. There hasn't been a time where this failed and I hope it never fails.
Last time I had one of such times was towards the end of last year, as everyone of us travelled out of Rivers state, Nigeria, I'm currently in Lagos but we're in constant communication and always willing to help the other up in trying times.
This is my entry to the Ladies of Hive community contest.
1️⃣ When you have had all you can take and need to relax, how do you treat yourself? Give a description of what that looks like for you, and when was the last time that you treated yourself?
I'm inviting @storyqueen to join this contest.
