Mystic Messenger

On the day of our meeting with Maudy, I quickly called my friend, Jeannie to see if she would like to join us and meet Maudy. Of course, she said yes! We continued to chat and naturally, the conversation turned to Squidoo. I insisted that she join me on Squidoo. I said, "Jeannie, you are such a great writer and you would totally enjoy Squidoo." Jeannie said, "Oh, Joan, I can't write!" And the conversation continued with me reminding her of wonderful things she had written in the past, and both of us laughing.

When it came time for Maudy to give Jeannie a message that night, Jeannie asked a question about her health. Maudy laughed that wonderful laugh. "We will get to that in a minute, but girl, why aren't you writing? You are a writer!" We looked at each other in astonishment and laughed. There was no way on this earth for Maudy to know of our earlier conversation.

And that little story was typical of our experience that evening! What fun!
