A Good Day!

Good morning friends!
I have had a wonderful weekend so far.
Today is my birthday and as I type this, everyone is sound asleep.
My family took me out to dinner last night and gave me some of my gifts.
Gift cards to craft stores, cold hard cash for buying clothes.
Lovely herbs to plant in my garden this spring.
An electric knife so I don't have to borrow my MIL's every Thanksgiving:)
I know they are probably very un-cool in the culinary world but let's face it,
I'm not a part of that world and I think they are AWESOME!
Today I get my gifts from my boys, husband included. 
My sister will be here soon to take me to brunch at this sweet place! 
I've been eating badly since Friday night so this is my last hurrah.
(hopefully)

The real good news is that I had my first big gallery sale yesterday!
YAY!
Unfortunately for my friends who have asked me repeatedly about this painting,


she's gone to a happy new home.
I'm so happy but now I need to replace her with something
 substantial for my reception this Friday night.
Yikes.
Hopefully I can get something started later this day!

Enjoy your day and remember,
life is good!

Happy Birthday, Tracy!
Whoever took your angel home is very lucky cause she's breathtakingly beautiful.
Can't wait to see her replacement. :)

Happy belated birthday! Congrats on your gallery sale! How exciting! It was a beautiful painting for sure~ I keep some larger frames on my walls filled with my paintings until they sell. At any given time there are at least 1 or 2 empty frames hanging until I replace it with something. I used to try to explain about the empty frames to guests, but now I just let them stare at them and think that I must be some kind of a lunatic!
