This must be my golden summer

  1. I won 3rd place with one painting and Best in Show with another painting at the local art show.
  2. I won People’s Choice Best in Show at the same art show.
  3. I won the logo design contest up here in New Hampshire (found out today)
  4. I won the People’s Choice Award in the photo contest up here (found out today)

and the jackpot…
5) DAN ASKED ME TO MARRY HIM TODAY!!!

Someone give me a lottery ticket, quick!

:eek:

Congratulations!!! :slight_smile: That’s wonderful!

You indeed, are golden. Congratulations! Now, get busy and get that art work into a gallery! :cool:

He only wants you for your art prizes.

I think the DAN’S CHOICE AWARD is just too much for one day! Excessive happiness at this time of year is sometimes the cause of the female response known as a wide-on.

Far out!

Congratulations! Hope the wedding plans go smoothly.

Congratulations. Wishing you both a lifetime of joy together. :slight_smile:

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

Congratulations!

Wow! HOORAY!!!

Did he start by saying, “Hi, Opal!”?

Congratulations!

That’s wonderful news, congratulations. :slight_smile:

That is one awesome week!

Congratulations! We’ll have to write a wedding into your novel!

Opal, I am so pleased! Congratulations to you both! It’s about damned time! :wink:

What wonderful news! Truly a summer mirabilis

If there is not an open wedding invite for Dopers, we will all be mightily offended.

But, other than that, YAAAAAAAAY!

No problem! We’ll all bring a covered dish and a libation! :slight_smile:

Congratulations! Dan must be a hell of a guy if you chose him. And how nifty that your art is getting noticed with the same degree of approval! As a son of the great and good state of Maine, I renounce all previous calumnies uttered against the rocky region known to some as New Hampshire – it may take some time. But, seriously, OpalCat, good for you and yours and I hope there are lots of them to tell you how proud they are!
