I just got my new program, Corel Painter II, today, along with an electronic tablet and stylus. Gadzooks! This can do everything any paintbrush, pen, pencil, or scanner can do. I am having a blast with the thing, even as I sniffle through the cold my granddaughter gave me as a gift.

What is making me even more euphoric is that at last, I have a viable platform where my ten years' collection of work on the Corel suite (PhotoPaint CorelDraw and Corel-based CADrafting) can be moved as vector graphics to my Adobe Suite programs (Dreamweaver, Indesign, Illustrator and PhotoShop.)

*does happy dance*

Not today, but Thursday (I am just home recently from a business trip), my daughter found out that she had won 2nd in the Ontario division of the Separate School Board's grade 4 - 6 writing contest! She came in first in our county and then her short story was submitted for province wide consideration.

I was very proud, to say the least and hope she keeps up the good work. I definitely do not have the talent for writing, but hopefully can live vicariously through her!

That's fantastic news. You must be thrilled and proud as punch.

Congrats, Zsig, to your daughter, that's fab!

Mine: the migraine is mostly gone (tks to two shots of Demerol at the ER yesterday), and the sun is still out and it's gorgeous weather.

I now have a literary agency in Barcelona seeking a Spanish publisher for Rocamora.

I had a scare. I discovered on line a book titled Rocamora published in Cordoba, and of course I feared plagiarism. To my relief, it was a 28 page volume of Latin American poetry.
