I wish I could remember the name of it.

Thanks for always popping over there to see what we were doing :)<br /><br />@Jen-Oh, Jen. I had no idea. I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a great day with my dad and realized how very special it was.<br /><br />@Charles-The way you said that gave me an idea for a story. Had to write it down. (As if I don't have enough) Thanks :)<br /><br />@Laughingwolf-So sorry to hear that :( Happy St. Patrick's Day to you, too!!<br /><br />@Todd-Thanks for visiting the 007 blog so often, even though it was VERY girly ;)<br /><br />@Becky Sue-Good to see you around here :) I'm glad the post wasn't a repeat for you. If we only knew all the catastrophes we avoid, we'd never leave the house, right?L.A.

It's the nuance of turning left instead of right, of rushing forward instead of pausing, or of getting behind that old slow truck on the highway and getting stuck behind the wreck instead of being tossed up in it.<br /><br />so many seemingly trivial instances ... but each one defines our future.Becky Sue Burkhearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14851851958909663383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8238174599083558093.post-19273894767717733232010-03-18T08:29:20.241-05:002010-03-18T08:29:20.241-05:00Classic post.
