More than 24 hours!!!

Have you ever accomplished so much in one day that your are sure there must be more that 24 hours in the day????? 

Me neither ...
but today was close.

I had a student call in sick and I was sorry to hear it but this opened up the entire after noon for me to "work"!!!!!!

I was able to complete a Easter Egg bookmark that I gave away almost immediately to a friend who stopped in to say she missed us .... (serendipity).

I worked on the watercolor for the nursing home logo,
almost completed the LARGE poppy commission (it's acrylic on 48 x 36 canvas),
started a daffodil pencil drawing (taking that home to work on it with my feet up),
and
completed the daffodil watercolor, photographed it and am ready to post it on esty, tomorrow.....
Special preview here tonight for my blog buddies!

No, even with the extra time today ... I did not clean up anything (are you surprised?)!

So, I hope you receive the gift of time this weekend and use it for something special!
