Christmas in February

Yesterday I received a wonderful surprise in the mail—a package all the way from Texas. Jeanne sent me a Wacom tablet !!! I was absolutely thrilled, stunned and exhilarated by her generosity. For those of you who don’t know what a Wacom is, it’s a graphics tablet you can use to draw and edit images onscreen in programs like Photoshop, Illustrator and so on.
Since Jeanne was upgrading her Wacom, she decided to send me the one she’d bought just a few months ago—and I think it’s found a good home. I’ve only been using my Wacom for a little over a day now, and already it’s making Photoshop go easier. I’ve tried drawing with the Wacom pen too, and the closest thing I can compare it to is the doodling and sketching I do in my journal. I can’t wait to see what I’ll be able to come up with when I have more practice under my creative belt. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you Jeanne. I can’t remember when I’ve appreciated a gift more!
