Paintings and Pains

I am making considerable progress on my FireFly vs Lightning Bug series. I have three new paintings done and one well on its way. I will be varnishing, taking photos, and posting online tomorrow! I'm excited to be proud of the work I'm doing and enjoying having the time to create to my heart's content. Even now, I get annoyed when I have to put away the paints to go to my four hour shift at the library! It's a wonderful feeling to be able to do what you love to do.

The Mister and I are wanting to take a weekend getaway sometime over the summer and are looking at places we can get to by car from Dallas and still have time to enjoy ourselves, all without having to take time off from work. We are thinking about San Antonio since we didn't really get to do it properly on our honeymoon. Any other suggestions for a quick, inexpensive trip destination no more than seven hours away from Dallas? Or, any thoughts about San Antonio (where to stay, restaurants to try, ets)? When we were last in SA, we had reservations at Le Reve, but weren't able to go because I got sick. Has anyone had experience with this restaurant? I hear it is supposed to be amazing.

Anyway, hope everyone is enjoying their week. Only two more days to go until the weekend!
