It’s Wednesday, and just like the title character of the show of the same name, I’m not amused. What happened to the back-to-back four-day work weeks we had last month? I miss seeing Ogbeni Rauf’s announcements. Anyway, the subject of today’s What She Said was in a long-distance marriage for 11 years, and honestly, I need you to read her story to better understand how it went down.

She talks about being married to a man she loves but feeling like a single mother, why divorce is not an option for her and the one thing that made her happy in the last month. Here’s a snippet: “I’ve accepted my husband is more interested in himself than me or the kids. We’ve tried to visit him, but it costs much more for me to travel with two kids. And because of his job, he only comes around for holidays, like a visitor.” She's gone through a lot mentally in her relationship with her immediate family members.
