Have you seen any of my mother-in-laws water colour paintings at my place?
I don’t remember. You being the IT person in the family, I’m assuming you created a website for her to display and sell her work. Where is it?!

I am so proud of you!
I won’t be throwing out. Hell, I’m gonna frame the damn thing.
And thanks!
