You know when it's not right. Good for you! 👊

*sigh* I do miss snow! Also opening a window on days like this.

Versions #1 and #3 of you are correct.

Version #2 needs a hug and a time-out in the blankie fort. I'll bring cocoa!

Consider: Any kind of nut butter, shelf-stable cheese or tuna pouches, I even got smoked salmon a time or two thanks to a local company that donated to the pantry. Having a quality protein that genuinely tasted good was incredible! Add fruit or bread, and there's a meal.

The day I met an angel, was the day my newly-homeless self accidentally bought hot food and had to say no thank you at the register. The lady behind me said, "I got it" and waved her debit card. She just looked at me with the kindest eyes and said, "everyone deserves to eat."

Will never forget her.

Thankfully it's a mythical animal. You decide what it looks like!

"This stinks! I should roll in it!"

- Every dog, ever

WOOOOOO! See how good you are at this??

Too long? There's no such thing! 😂

I had the honor of hosting this floofus for most of her long life. Miss her so much!

I got to know the melody through an entirely different song, Back Home in Derry by Christy Moore, covered by the Fenians. You can imagine my surprise when they played Edmund Fitzgerald at a mid-November show one year and told what it's about. An important tale I now know thanks to them!

Ugh. Sending hugs.

That is simply MAGNIFICENT floofage! 😍

OH GOOD what a relief!

Then some low-res images might do the trick. Just watermark the heck out of them so she knows those aren't the real files! You'd be surprised how people will think the fuzzy one is the final, finished file. "Oh really, it looked fine to me, that's not it?"

Now, if she already paid you and you're trying to keep your end of the bargain, that's totally different. In that case, sending low res images (watermark them, so she knows there's better ones to come) and say PLEASE get me your email so I can send you the unmarked ones!

That might work.

Definitely do not send her low res anything. Why? Because if she's thinking of not paying you, too many people are content with low-res. Might just take that, and ghost for good.

If she's just busy, she'll reply eventually. If she got cold feet about paying, hold your art.

The bandaid tin makes me 🥰 because my Dad gave me my truck years ago, with one of those in the glove compartment. It had actual bandaids in it. I kept it as a little first aid kit, and it's in there still. Good memories from someone who set me an example of always being prepared.

I love it!

Making a mini kit was a gamechanger for me. Suddenly every waiting room, lunch break, cafe visit and park stop became art time. It's still my favorite way to paint!

😍😍😍

I would send it if I had one! Are there pics of tiny art kit? 😍
