Amazing what can be written when your world expands. I love it Trish. :) Seems the muse got through the floods to find you.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Thanks Dot, Heather & Maureen,
Hopefully the muse hangs around for a while...been missing in action of late!

I don't know Heather. Sometimes she comes in the dark of night and sleep has to wait as I get up and write because by morning it will be a fleeting memory.
Like you said Trish it is good when she hangs about. Amuse or bemuse?

Put you phone by your bed and do a quick recorded note fixes that Dot or a note book if you are not phone savvy.

The purpose in life is to have fun.
After you grasp that everything else seems insignificant !!!

Good idea Bob but the old man thinks I ramble enough in the day let alone at night!

We've all had those moments Dot and isn't it annoying if you don't write it down? That doesn't seem to happen to me any more.

Either way Trisha, I'm glad you are writing again. :)

Good one Trisha you've captured that special bonding moment well.

Inspiration can be fleeting at times, so grasp it tightly when it does arrive.

Cheers Terry
