GOOD MORNING!! It actually rained a little last night---I love it! and it's still kinda cloudy and breezy out but it should be ok for tonight (no rain) for the Second Saturday Art Walk.
I will be doing a little painting myself today :)---it's perfect weather just to stay inside with a cup of coffee and fiddle fart around in my studio. I'll prolly be burning some CD's of music today and more of my art files so I can load them onto the TheHepCatLoLap :)

I had a very nice (quiet) birthday yesterday. Thank you all (Especially Barbara, Erikie and Joe) for your birthday wishes--I really appreciated them!
Tonight we will be doing more of the "party-ing" I got some beautiful flowers! See? A big bunch of red roses from Kip, and a mystery bouquet? (Not really, I think I know who they are from...but the card was blank-Whoops?) Di was that from you guys? Thank you if it was ;)
Also a huge bag of salt water taffy from my sister, a bunch of cool cards and some nice phone calls :)
Oh! and guess what showed up in the mail from Joe? My "French Hats for Pickleman art piece" from the EBSQ ripped off show---yep! Thank you I've already hung it on my wall in my studio, by your other piece see?

and Joe...(hanging head) I still have to mail your painting to you :( I will!!
---Also this morning while I was typing away on the computer I see a strange guy walk by my studio window and then our doorbell rang. I made Kip get the door cuz I was still in my robe :( and there was a teanie little present sitting on the front doormat? Another mystery? Hummm...anyway, it was from my friend Anne. She (I think?) made me this very beautiful aqua blue necklace and hand drew out this neat card :) See? Thank you sweetheart! I love it :)

Well, Thats it for today---I'll try and take pics tonight at the art walk.
Have a nice Saturday everyone and I will see you tonight LilJiff!

Hey HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lolo!!!!
I think the aqua necklace is the coolest thing! And it looks like there's another budding greeting card artist out there in your friend Anne's daughter - that's a cute card.

Hope you had fun at the art walk! Is it like a marathan? Do you have to walk so many miles and then you get a piece of art? :P JK!
My pictures are looking pretty awesome there at the home of the Lo! If Better homes and gardens knocks at your door....ya, take the art down ;)
