Ceiling fan light went off completely and now it blinks one short blink and comes on okay
You are overloading it.  It is probably listed for 40W bulbs.  Switch some of the bulbs to LEDs.

It may be best to keep one incandescent; some electronic modules do not like it when they are all LEDs. 

Since you just bought incandescents, I assume you have been put off by the ugly, dazzling blue of the early LED attempts. You and everyone else. They are much better now.  While it's always possible to buy cheap junk, any reasonable quality of LED allows your choice of color temperature from 5000K LED dazzle-blue, clear down to 2700K traditional incandescent. 

What they're selling you now as "incandescents" are in fact halogens, which still incandescent but with a trick for efficiency (not much).  It is also bluer (not much) so its light is 3000K - keep that in mind if matching. 

Cheapie LEDs tend to be 5000k because it's cheaper to make. Cheapies also tend to have terrible CRI, meaning the various colors are all lop-sided - too much blue, no green, etc.  If CRI is specified, aim for 80% or above. If it's not specified, lookout!   Actually 5000K does have its uses (it matches daylight) but nobody wants bad CRI.
