I've told you the story of meeting Pete Sinjin in Paris before. It was awesome.
This year surprise beyond measure, I got one of Pete's paintings for my
birthday! One of my favourites. And get this-- my husband ordered it in August
for my Halloween birthday! Yes I was blown away.

I'm a bit under the weather tonight, so this will be short. I'll show you the
painting another day. It's magnificent.
Then last week I met one of the stars of We Will Rock You at my art show
on the afternoon before Steven and I went to the show that evening. So
magical.
Stay open to awesome happiness.
Have a loving your life day!
