\"Lynedoch<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a Shadow Shot Sunday. This is because I’ve been busy, writing up a chapter for my PhD. It’s been a long while, during which there have been many shadows.<\/p>\n

There have been many meals eaten at the computer… (Remember your first computer at home, and the rules your parents made about never eating at the keyboard? Uh, yeah. Sorry, Mom and Dad.)<\/p>\n

\"Lynedoch<\/a><\/p>\n

…and many hours scowling over just the right word. And then, many lost hours of clowning when writing should have been getting done. *cough*<\/p>\n

Welll, let’s just draw a veil over the wasted time, shall we?<\/p>\n

\"Lynedoch<\/a><\/div>\n

Some of the best shadows, though, have been to do with T’s orchid. She’s managed to get it to send up a new spike, and to flower again!<\/p>\n

\"Lynedoch<\/a><\/div>\n

This is the first orchid we’ve managed not to kill, never mind the flowers. How was this done? Well, by neglecting the heck out of it, putting it in a non-sunny corner of the room, watering it only once a week (if that), and not giving it any fertilizer, of course!<\/p>\n

\"Lynedoch<\/a><\/div>\n

I think that we care a bit too much for our plants. They’d probably like for us to go on vacation more often (or to work more on our writing).<\/p>\n

Happy Shadow Shot Sunday<\/a>! And Happy September (soon)!<\/p>\n
