Friday

I got tickets to see Elton John in September!  Yay! Very exciting. Very EXPENSIVE, but he is one of my big faves. An icon. We will be on the floor, I wanted lower bowl but clicked on "the best available seats" and this is what we got. I love his music. Benny and the Jets! I used to work at a pizza/pub place in Toronto when I was 19 . They had a juke box full of great music and every night after closing, I would blast that song while putting the chairs up on the tables and sweeping the floors. Brings me right back every time I hear it.

In other news, my vinyl painting sold! I went down to the gallery yesterday to get a picture of it in daylight and couldn't find it anywhere. Gone! Someone on vacation from the US purchased it. I am happy but sad that it is not there for anyone to see anymore.

I have ten small flower paintings for sale at Love, Me Boutique. That was a fun project. Something bright and cheerful for summer.

My last bit of Friday catchup is a bit odd. H and I have sponsored a girl from Nicaragua for several years. I just got a message from them this week saying my sponsorship of her has stopped, she is out of the program.  Said it doesn't happen very often but this is the case here. My  Virmania has gotten MARRIED. She is 13!  Turning 14 in November. I was VERY surprised. The letter did address that and said although it is uncommon, early marriages do take place still . They have partnered us with a new wee girl named Darling.
