We made it. Friday. Just first let me say thank-you three times over. THANK YOU UNIVERSE for letting me steal some time to PAINT. THANK YOU BONNIE for taking my girl tribe so I could paint. AND THANK YOU INTERNET for being awesome. Wow. The response to the YOU-ARE-AWESOME mini print set was pretty incredible. All day long the phrase "it's not where you get them from, but where you take them to" kept looping in my mind because of the emails from people telling me what they were going to DO with the prints. Who they were giving them to. Where they were going to put them. How they were going to make a difference. Teachers were getting them for students. Bosses for employees. Life coaches for the lives they are coaching. Old people for young people. Young people for old farts. Fathers for daughters. Friends for friends. Mothers for children. Mothers for other mothers. US for EACH OTHER. It was humbling and very touching to feel the spirit of generosity picking up speed from a little design. SO COOL. (One lady was getting them for the baristas at her local Starbucks!)
DON'T FORGET: For every set of mini prints you buy - you will be entered in a draw for a big Custom YOU-ARE-AWESOME poster. On me. (Draw will be made on the 27th of March.)
Not sure what YOU-ARE-AWESOME mini prints sets are? Here's the post and you can order them here.
GIVEAWAY OF AWESOMENESS: leave a comment with what you would do with your prints - who needs them - what they might mean to you AND THREE LUCKY PEOPLE WILL WIN an 8 x 10 inch version of their choice from the mini print set. (see them here) Cool. I'll take comments until TODAY at 11:59pm Central Standard time.

5 PROJECT-WEEK PIPE DREAM UPDATE:
MONDAY: fabric designs three TINY ARTS started
TUESDAY: custom baby book + TINY ART finished + photo organization and printing
WEDNESDAY: Tiny Art + YOU-ARE-AWESOME prints, posters
THURSDAY: painting + YOU-ARE-AWESOME mini prints, posters and emails.
FRIDAY: photo organization and printing
Check, check and sorta-CHECK! I did a not-too-bad of sticking to my list... with the exception of the fabric and the baby book design. And exercising. And eating healthy. But, I added a GIANT mini print project. And reading a whole book. And getting up twice each night with either Penn or Pilot. Okay. SO I kind of sucked balls at staying on track. BOOO. My list-making was a little bit useless. NOTE TO SELF.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today: (another Friday the 13th? Yikes.) Pilot's old nanny (except she's young and beautiful) is coming by for a visit this morning. I'm going to pack mini print sets. I'm going to organize my photos and send them for print. I'm going to work on the cow Tiny Art painting (shown above in the first stage) and get some scanning done during the afternoon naps. Mooooo. The weather looks good so we're GOING OUTSIDE so that Crash will GET OFF MY BACK ALREADY. And have company over for dinner. And drink some wine. And be together.
You can't win a YOU-ARE-AWESOME poster if you don't leave a comment. HELLO FRIDAY! GO!
