Epiphany

What is an epiphany? I guess you know it when you have one. Humph. Then what is the difference between an epiphany and a good idea? Is a good idea carrying a hurricane lamp or candle into a dark room or should you just jump into bed for a little extra r&r? Does the epiphany come into play when you realize you don't have to do anything when the lights go out?
My epiphany was when Saturday came around I didn't have to do work that needed to be done, and that I could take the day off and PLAY. Now there was a new experience!
You ask what did you do to play? I'm not telling. You get to have your own epiphany. Just don't wait until you are my age.
For crying out loud, I'm a Recreation major. I guess I forgot how to have some fun amongst all the work that constantly needs to be done.
After all my travels this summer and this new epiphany, who knows what will happen to me!

World Traveler

Not really but the past month, I've been to Idaho, Oregon, Arizona and back to South Carolina. No matter how much fun I had, it is always great to be home. I like my bed, my refrigerator, my computer (and keyboard)and water aerobics.
I realize that being home means work, work and more work. But hey somebody has to do it.
But during my travels, I have reconnected with my brother and sister and enjoyed the company of many other family members. Speeding down the middle of the river on jet boats and flying over the sand dunes on 4 wheelers....whew, like I said I had a bunch of fun. Even sitting and visiting is quite the treat.
Vacationing is fun! I think I might try some more of it.
