To Blog or Not To Blog… that is the question. (The Hunger Game by Suzanne Collins).


It is amazing how addictive blogging can become. I actually find myself wondering if to add something daily, or if to wait a couple of days before trying to add something of significance. But then again… what is really significant?

 I can tell you I am completely enjoying reading ‘The Hunger Games’. The writing style is a little different to the norm with its short sentences, but it still manages to capture your interest. I have only started so I do not know where it is going, so only time will tell how these relationships turn out.
“Will she fall in love with Peeta?”
“Will she have to kill him?”
“Will she ever see G ale again?”
Some many question and only time will reveal the truth. JUST LIKE LIFE.

The mystery is what is forcing you to read on. In the end you want to know who it is she really can trust.

I can tell you one thing… after reading just the first part I cannot wait to see the movie. I am officially a FAN.

    My book club read "Hunger Games" and found it to be a compelling plot - as well giving us some great social commentary to contemplate long after the final page.

Guardian Angel working Overtime!!

Saturday morning this occurred while I was on my way with the kids to my family's home in San Fernando. My car is the Blue Madza and my kids were in the back seat!! I had just stopped at a traffic light with 4 cars ahead of me, waiting for the lights to turn green, when the Green car smashed into me from behind.  All I can say is that we were all frightened by a loud bang from behind, and just as I turned my head to look at my kids in the back, I saw my car skidding on the wet road heading towards the car infront of me. There was no stopping and unfortunately my car struck the car infront of me :( From that point on there was alot of screaming from the kid behind, me trying to calm them, and me trying to get my husband on the phone. Even today I still cannot believe it happened. Clearly the woman who struck me from behind did not see me stopping along with the other cars, clearly she was distracted doing something else than focusing on the road. ...

When they smile... I smile

Just a gentle tug at the mouth is all it takes, To fill and make your heart break... To see their faces lit up with so much joy, And its them playing that brings smiles.. not a toy. They innocences of just lying in the grass, Makes me just want them to just stay there till the daylight lass... The cool ground beckons them to relax and stay, And there they lay just giggling and they play. What I would give to watch them like this all day, Because their smiles are precious in every way.

She called her 'Gan'

My mother when she was a little girl, was dressed in a crown of flowers, a new dress and shoes and went to throw petals at the feet of her grandmother at the Santa Rosa Festival in Trinidad. You see her grandmother was a Carib Queen and every year they celebrated this Catholic festival in Arima, Trindad. I have never experienced this and though the Carib bloodline is being passed on through me, there is not much I can say about my heritage. In jest I would tell other who ask what I am mixed with, I would say "my people were here first... we did not arrive by boat... we were natives." But I really do not know what that really means. I do not know how to live off the land. In fact I kill all plants and animals that enter my home. I should put a sign ... "Enter at your own risk!" But I do want to understand this particular part of my ancestry. Although I am mixed with Chinese, Spanish, Scottish and Protégées, I have always been curious of the one culture that was h...
