Well, talking about exposure {that I never saw coming!} I had well over 7,000 hits yesterday! And most everyone that commented was soooo nice! How in the heck they picked me – the world may never find out – but I’m soooo glad they did!

So much to tell you – first let’s start with this “anon” commenting – I did block that mess from this blog. After my “to the point” post yesterday to “anon”, some moron left a tacky comment on the finally home post. It actually went like this . . . .

WHAT A SSTUPID THING TO WRITE ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHO CARES ABOUT THAT NONSENSE

MY KID WAS SICK WAA WAA

WHO THE F*** CARES !

***edited

I saw it immediately and deleted it- obviously! But then decided to put it in my post today. You may wonder why. I’ll tell you why . . . . to prove there are some really lame {and illiterate!} people out there! At first, I was really shocked. Why on earth would someone put that on my blog about my kid coming home from the hospital?? Of course this was after I did the post “to Anonymous” – so obviously they did it because they could. And I actually found myself later laughing at it!

Just a little note to this anonymous, “Hey Moron, I bet your parents are PROUD! Go to church – we’ll be praying for you.” This is the person {I’m sure} has no friends, has never been on a date, was ridiculed immensely growing up by the way he dressed{pure assumption Mr Moran is male,} tortures small animals, lives on the computer {since it’s the only way he can work up enough courage to talk to anyone} and blog hops in hopes to find someone he can be mean to without the threat of being beat up {like I’m sure he did in school!} What a Wanker!!

Anyhoodle, this brings me into another point – I want to clarify about another comment. I don’t want anyone to think I was being mean about this one! I did have someone make a comment about a color I used for a painting – and No, I didn’t take it personally. That is the beauty of it being hand-made and MY design! If a color is an issue – we can tweak it a small bit and make it work. I appreciate opinions such as hers. Without them, I would really limit myself. So, my new {and local} friend – “Thanks!”

On to other stuff – I literally boxed up 11 paintings {that should have went out last week!} But I did get side-tracked a little and I’m just getting back in the groove {only 1 week+} behind! I see some long nights and early mornings for me!! But I will get them done – I swear! For all those who have said January is fine to receive your order – Thank-you-so-very-much because I’m pretty sure that is when I will get to them! I’ve said it so much lately, but let me say it again . . . . I can’t believe how many people want my art! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Currently, I’m working on 9 of the “fa la la”s {because that is the payments I’ve received!} As soon as you pay, I will work yours into the mix! By the way, I’m only taking about 5 more orders – and then it is “retired”! I’m also working on – Sofia, Bagley, Parker & Gracie – Or atleast that is who is next in line! So, if you are one of these 4 and have not heard from me, be expecting an email from me any day now to talk! Sofia {should have been done by now – but with the past 2 weeks, uhmmm . . . well, . . . just didn’t happen!} is almost complete! I hope to “sneaky peeky” it in the next day or so!

I normally hate to tell my schedule – but I need the heat turned up! And if you know where you are on the list, well, . . . . let’s just say that I have to get you done in a timely manner {if you know what I mean!}

But for those who will be getting art this week . . . .

Are one of these yours?

Or this one?

Maybe one of these??

“H” is seemingly popular!

There are a few more – I just didn’t take any pictures! Remember I have the duct tape battery door on the camera and I’m not sure how long it’s going to make it!!!!!! So, I’m limiting pictures!

Which leads me into another something . . . . A faithful follower of this blog has sent me a wonderful monetary gift to purchase a camera! Oh, you read that right! And to be quite honest, I felt weird accepting it! I offered her paintings, but “no” she wouldn’t accept it! I would go clean her house or cook her family dinner {although they might die with my cooking skills – they rank with those picture taking skills!} – but she lives in Hawaii! My kids barely last on a 1 hour car ride! And the fact that Hawaii is much more than a “1 hour CAR ride!?” So, I’ve thought and thought about what to do {in honor of my new friend} – and I will pay it forward! I’ve got a few more post {3 or 4} to be exact before I hit the 300 marker. That will give me a few days to think about the specifics of this one – but I’m going to do a give-a-way – and we all love some give-a-ways! But there is a catch – WHOever WINS, has to pay it forward. We have to keep it going and what a better time of the year for it!!!!!

And before I forget – Sunday, Lonnie and I celebrated 6 years of marriage! Yeah, I know – amazing! Funny, I read last years post – and I swear if the same thing didn’t happen this year! Lonnie said sometime late afternoon, “Hey, happy anniversary!” We totally forgot! Late that night we played the game “if I had a hundred dollars, I’d buy you a ——.” But we started at a dollar, then $10, $100, $1,000, till we got to $100,000. We got to laughing so hard! For a buck – know my husband would buy me a root beer!!! But I would buy him a big honey bun from the gas station!!!

So, give-a-way in few days! Just want to get that out there now – so you all have plans to meet me here – on my blog!!!!
