I don't have any idea what most of these signify. There are almost too many to count! I do know that one of them was specially designed to represent Admiral Allen's exemplary handling of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, after the Coast Guard took over operations from FEMA.

Congratulations Michele! I'm looking forward to seeing it.

By the way, I have to go to Seattle one day next week and I thought I'd take a look at the Impressionist show at the SAM. Would you be interested in joining me? The 27th - 30th are the days I have available. Email if you're interested.

I am SO thrilled for you! Congratulations! Please keep us all posted, I know you will have a wonderful experience, and a terrifc product.

XOXO

Debra, please email me and maybe we can work something out.

Thanks everybody, for your kind wishes on this project.

One of the best things about this job is getting to meet such interesting clients. What other job can you have where you get to paint every day, have zero commute, don't have to dress up, and get to work with people in all walks of life, from Southern debutantes to world class ballet dancers, to Admirals!

Congratulations on receiving such an impressive commission. I look forward to seeing the end result.

Michele--
