And Still I Rise

Vincentians always welcome Good Friday with a bit of unease.It was on a Good Friday,27 years ago that they were awakened to the news that the volcano was making its presence known.

This Good Friday,I did not place the white of an egg in a glass,put it in a shady place and hope by day end it would take a shape that would determine my future.I didn't cut a peas tree hoping it would bleed,probably because there are no trees in my backyard.Am deathly afraid of snakes so there is no way am going to hunt down one and hit it with the hope of seeing its feet.Am not going to the beach today,not because I fear drowning but simply because I plan to go on Monday.

I did however eat some not too hot cross buns after coming back from church service.Later on today am going to eat the traditional Good Friday lunch which will be missing meat.I don't think I will be eating mackerel but definitely something in the fish family.

Oh,the funeral and wedding reception went well.I didn't feel the strain until the Thursday midday when tiredness overcame me.Here are a few pics from the reception.More will follow later.
