Dr. Greene,
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I was about to be evicted from my home due to lack of money to pay my rent... this will allow my six daughters and I to stay here 2-3 more months.... I have shown your email to my landlord and he's allowing me to complete this sale and then pay him for the overdue rent.
What details do you need?
Blessings to you and your family.
Me
And he responds in turn

Dr. Greene,
How I hate to sully the transaction of art with talk of money... but I must pay my rent... I hope you understand.
Will you be paying for shipping fees? Where will I be shipping this wondrous creation of mine?
My six daughters, my landlord and I send you blessings.
Lenny
