The Magic of Friday ...

A Before-Bed Magic Show, March 2008
Brett & Davis

It has been a crazy week.
I normally don't celebrate TGIF because ... I don't have a 9-5 M-F job.  And neither does my husband Kyle.
But today I'm totally feeling the TGIFness in it being FRIDAY.
I haven't sat down since Sunday.
Metaphorically speaking, of course ... I'm not pulling some David Blaine stunt.  :)
Staying true to my non-idle self, I'm about to go out & mow the lawn.
Kyle gets home today & I thought it'd be a nice surprise for him to be able to have one less thing to do during his 48 hours home this weekend.
Then sometime between now & tomorrow I have to [start &] finish a portrait.
It's a silent auction donation for an event tomorrow night.
YIKES.  Cutting it close, I know.  But luckily, I work extremely well under pressure.
My camera died yesterday.  Fully charged battery & it wouldn't turn on.
I thought I was going to have to add yet another thing to do today ... and go out to buy a new battery or new camera today. I can't turn a painting loose without having photographed it. 
As an artist, Etsy shop owner & mommy ... I just can't operate without a camera.
Today I tried to turn on my camera for the 68th time in the last 24 hours & miraculously ... it turned on. [?]  Maybe I am a David Blaine.
I'll need a little *magic* to pull off the rest of my to-do's for today.  :)
Wishing you a *MAGICAL FRIDAY*.
