I always enjoy your books and am often a bit in awe of you. I've been seeing you around since I met you years ago at M&M. I now know I'd enjoy just being around you.

I'm blessed with my clan, and I'm doing what I love, so even though I'm the most boring person I know, at least I'm happy . . . even when completely stressed.

The "oddities" I mentioned were just my lack of caffeine. LOL. I was stolen by gypsies as a child, but they brought me back. <i>*sigh*</i> Maybe I should have run away to that Hungarian circus.... Hrm. I wonder if there's still time? Oh, good! The “oddities” I mentioned were just my lack of caffeine. LOL.

I, too, was a child of Hungarian circus performers and we escaped to the US in an adventure. I didn't get to be a trapeze artist, though. I was the cannonball that they shot out. Sure made not talking back to one's parents rather important. "Yeah? Well, missy, we'll just see if we aim you at the net, next time." ;) Heather, that’s absolutely amazing… I, too, was a child of Hungarian circus performers and we escaped to the US in an adventure.

Heather, this post was written by you (with your picture) but attributed to Deb. Have you guys been hanging around with that Apodaca/Lyons chick again? I have three quotes about life that pretty much sums it up for me: "Life is rarely as we would like it to be - rather it is exactly as it is." ~ anon. One wanders through life as if wandering through a field in the dark of night, wearing a blindfold and very heavy shoes, with a poisonous toad waiting patiently beneath a clump of weeds, knowing full well that eventually you will step on him. ~Lemony Snicket Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars. ~Henry Van Dyke Someday, I hope to make it to New Orleans and your conference, Heather. I love the place and I have a series set there. I always need more research in NOLA! Thanks for a great post today. *blink* Uhm…I need more coffee?

I honestly think it's one of the best things you can do for yourself. If you're at loose ends, don't know what to do next, between jobs, whatever--volunteer!
