Dear Mike, Julie, Janel, Alex, Marcus, David and Thomsin,

Thank you all for your kindest congratulations. I know that you all know the struggles that we contend with on a daily basis just in portraiture but adding to that the business side can sometimes be disheartening. Getting started is not easy.

Fortunate for me I have a sales background that tells me that when I receive a "no" I understand that I can rejoice because that's another "no" I can get out of my way. And that gets me closer to a "yes".

This is one of the "yesses" (is that a real word?)

It's getting late and I wanted to acknowledge all of you but when I start to make up words I know it's time for me to go.

By the way Happy Irish Furniture Day to you all. (Pattie O'Furniture)

Ok, I'm gone.
