Hear me roar!

I found my orchids!

When we bought our house 14 years ago you could actually see the fence line in the big side yard. Sadly, it has grown over with hanging branches and vines and other tropical delicacies such as bugs and the occasional snake. Well, I decided I'm tired of it and I'm not going to take it any more. *insert un-ladylike foot stomp here.* So last week I bought a weed whacker, $30 on sale at the home of Blue Light Specials, and today I bought a small lopper.  I even bought some nifty, pink, girly garden gloves to save my hands.

And then I took out every frustration of the week on the branches, and weeds, and the vines, and--

And then I looked down and found the orchids that used to grow wild beneath the trees. One of them was blooming.

And this is what I made from it.

To add to my accomplishments today, I answered a little writing challenge. You can find it here, at Dust Jacket.
