More prezzies!

Selling a book is almost like having another birthday without getting a year older. People send you presents and flowers. I already blogged about the fabulous bouquet and balloon Stephanie Rowe sent me earlier in the week. But here are some of the other great things my wonderful friends and family have sent.

San Antonio pal Sydney Alfrido sent me this lovely bracelet. Sydney’s the president of San Antonio Romance Writers and keeps all those crazy San Antone gals in line.

Stephanie Feagan, long-time writing pal who I think I “met” eons ago on Cataromance and is now a fellow Noodler and member of the RWA board, knows how much I love Santa Fe. So well before I sold, she bought this pin for me, aiming to give it to me when I made that first sale. Isn’t it gorgeous?

I was on the phone today with friend Michellet Butler when I saw a floral delivery van drive up in front of the house. This lovely arrangement arrived from my critique and all-around-great buddies Annie Solomon and Beth Pattillo.

And my sister-in-law, brother-in-law and nephew couldn’t decide which card to send me, so they sent me two — and they arrived on different days. This first one cracked me up. Inside, it says, “I’m so happy for you, my face hurts!” LOL!

And on this second one, the little duck part is actually a pin, so I can wear it around declaring that I’m a “Thuperstar!”. Hee hee.

Health woes update: Rash seems to be better today. At least I don’t have the compulsive need to scratch off all my skin, which I take as a good sign.
