Irish Blessing of the Day:

‘May you have food and raiment
A soft pillow for your head;
May you be forty years in heaven
Before the devil knows you’re dead.’

~Irish Blessings

I was talking the other night to some friends and we were discussing how we get these fantastic epiphanies in the worst places possible. While driving, while in the grocery store, while sitting in church…areas where you should be concentrating on the task at hand. And, because you can’t stop in the middle of the road, in the middle of the meat department, or in the middle of the preacher’s prayer and write it down, then it is long gone by the time you get to a pen and paper.

Well, it happened to me today at work. I had been working my way through a plot problem and not having any luck until ‘the great epiphany’ struck. By the time I could get to a place I could stop and write it down, I’d lost it. I hate when that happens. Tomorrow, I am going to the same office and stand in the same place and see if I can remember. I hear that works sometimes.

You HAVE to go to Voodoo’s Room and read today’s blog. I weeped with laughter at her signs of the zodiacs. She is a hoot!

And Mary’s husband is at it again. Be sure and read how he communes with nature.

And Daisy Dexter Dobbs. She ALWAYS makes me laugh.

Dennie’s new book will be available on March 14! Check out her contest for a free copy on her blog.

Nothing else much today. American Idol, Lost, and Invasion all starts in 15 minutes.

I’ve been absent from blog-hopping for a couple of weeks because I’ve been sick. And today, just as I start catching up, I find this very nice comment about me on your blog. Thanks so much, Sandy. You really made my day. 😀

Sandy, I carry a tape recorder around with me at all times and have it ready to go in the car when I’m driving. Even if a word comes to me that has some relevance, I just record it. Some cell phones also have a recording function, but they can be difficult to initiate, especially if you’re busy doing something else like driving.
Hope you find you epiphany back!!!
