Trish and Bach,
Yes, it's very nice when "pencil" receives honors and even better when it is your pencil drawing!

Will I buy pencils? Perhaps. But first I'm going to get a new office chair. Mine is absolutely past it's day. I want to use the money for something I will remember. This way every time I sit at the computer I will say to myself "hum..good pencil stuff!"...as I bounce just a little in my new chair.

Thanks for your kind words of support.

Sincerely,
Marsha
