I am very happy with what I did manage to accomplish and it was much more enjoyable than those dreary goals I always set up:)<BR/><BR/>Chris, don't feel bad, in 2003 my sales were a big fat zero and in 2004? Seven. After that it ramped up, but I still remember the zero years.Tracy Helgesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07510044613771862211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-52095886565786390242008-01-04T18:01:00.000-05:002008-01-04T18:01:00.000-05:00One hundred eleven?!Good Christ.

For you, it seems your inner self cut off the "critic" that would have directed you to accomplish your goals. Instead, you painted and painted and painted and look what happened! Maybe 2008 goals should just be to repeat 2007 plus some!<BR/><BR/>MarshaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-7206851510752093722008-01-02T08:18:00.000-05:002008-01-02T08:18:00.000-05:00Oh, thanks, Natalya, that's so nice of you to incl...Oh, thanks, Natalya, that's so nice of you to include me on your list. I am flattered. Happy New Year to you too!<BR/><BR/>Hi Angela, so glad you like the Pay It Forward painting. It was a busy year, but I got enough down time too, so that was good.<BR/><BR/>Hi Kris, thanks so much for stopping by! I am not too worried about what I didn't do, with the exception of the figure drawing-I really should be keeping up with that.<BR/><BR/>Christine, I agree, I am pleased with what I did do!<BR/><BR/>Thanks, Lisa, and puh-leez, don't you accomplish ALL of your goals, while the rest of us look at our lists and bail out?:) I need a nap after just skimming through your goals:)<BR/><BR/>Thanks Bridgette, and you never know, I may just do another Pay It Forward again!Tracy Helgesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07510044613771862211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-41512626927269892362008-01-02T00:35:00.000-05:002008-01-02T00:35:00.000-05:00Happy New Year Tracy!

I do hope that one day I will be able to follow in your and Lisa Call's footsteps. Meanwhile I wanted to thank you for inspiring me with your art and I hope you don't mind if I give you the "Make My Day Award". and you don't have to give it to anyone else if you don't want to, it is not tag.. thank you!Natalya Khorover Aikenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08490493432155941262noreply@blogger.com
