Freedom?

I gave notice on Monday.

I ran along to tell people who should have some warning of this state of affairs. I told them, “I gave notice.” They asked, “Notice of what?”

Is that not the right term?

Oh well, I shall simplify. I resigned my position with 1 month’s notice (sort of).

What next for Lilandra? Who knows.

I feel so free and like there is a weight lifted off my shoulder. It is good. Why didn’t I do this ages ago? Anywayz, everything in its time. (Thank God).

Cricket World Cup: *sigh*

I’ve been in distress the last few days, not paying attention to much news…and never posting my views on the World Cup.
Just when I was ready I have to hear about Gilchrist.

*argh*

Maybe I should just not bother and change the title.

I’m fed up.
The final annoyed me no end.
This Gilchrist thing is perturbing.
The umpires/officials/etc…well…playing in the dark is ridiculous.
Playing for an unknown total is ridiculous.

I mean, we had enough problems with the world cup in the Caribbean, why add to it? why more stains? Why the travesty of a final???

I am sad.
Why did I bother get all excited and follow the world cup? Should I even bother following the next West Indies tour?
I don’t know.

Orchids, Orchids and a Rose

I’ve been busy uploading all my pictures from before going to Barbados.
So *very* tedious.
They’re not the greatest pictures but they are excited pictures as I was so happy to finally get my camera back. I got it around Easter I think.

Most of these are flower pictures. I was watering mom’s plants all the while she was in Barbados. I guess there is some benefit.

This is my whole orchid set so far.

So, here’s a selection :)

Spooky Alien Orchid

Is it coming for us?
Should we be afraid?
Is it trying to eat us???

Alien Orchid

Okay so maybe not. But both Chennette and I thought it rather spooky.

Mom bought a new orchid (well she may have bought three new orchids that day) and this one needed some fixing of a broken stem from being transported in the car. So she put it in the kitchen sink for her surgery (because it has great light at that time of day) and I took a picture of it (because there was great light especially at that time of day).

I also took a picture of some buds:

I love pizza!

I really do! :)

Some weeks ago, after not much sleep and no food at the school cafeteria I actually bought a *personal* sized pizza from Pizza Boys (a chain here).

Mushrooms and pineapples.
I also took pictures :-)
