My Birthday Gift Arrived Today!

Okay, okay - #1: I shouldn’t be opening my birthday gifts early (my birthday is January 14th) and, #2: I know it’s weird to buy myself a birthday gift. I did it anyway! Like I was saying to a friend of mine on the phone a few weeks ago, “I know that’s not what I’m supposed to do . . . I never do what I’m “supposed” to do.” Well, in cases like these I don’t anyway. J
You’re wondering what I purchased myself, aren’t you? I ordered Return to Fairyopolis from Amazon.com the other night when I was ordering a “how to” book (actually, it was an idiot’s guide, but we’re not keeping score here) for my fiancé. I thought about asking for it from him, but he hates bookstores with a passion . . . and hates getting on this computer even more.
I solved that problem and now it’s in my hands! I can’t wait to spend some time with this book, and Fairyopolis: A Flower Fairy’s Journal (I received this from my mother for Christmas) this weekend. I find both of these books very inspiring and, each time I look through them, my art journal becomes FAR more interesting. I, of course, am not journaling about fairies, but I am being a lot more visual about my own interests. I love this!
