Las Vegas

Oh my goodness!  Hi everyone. 

I have been interviewing
for two new positions on my staff while also keeping the
responsibilities of those two jobs moving along.  There has been just
enough extra work on my plate to keep me away from blogging for a couple
of weeks. 

A quick vacation to Las Vegas with
the kids was in there too.  Much needed.  We swam, and ate, and swam,
and slept.  It was great.  We also sized-up lounging lions, snarfed-up Pink's
hot dogs, soaked-in the Bellagio fountains, scouted- out the ice cream
situation — and averted our eyes on occasion.

The only things Las
Vegas lacked were a monster water-slide park, and a few important
morals here and there.  The strip sure has fancied-up over the last five
or six years;  I hardly recognized the place. 

Tip:  If you get
the hungries at Vegas-midnight, try breakfast at the Luxor.

Boy, am I excited.  I
painted the studio last week and am moving forward with two fabulous,
new, cutting tables.  Who knew work tables could be exciting — and so
much work.  The floors still need love.  I haven't decided what to do
with them though.  Perhaps wood, perhaps stained concrete, perhaps
ignore the floors and design fabric instead.  It'll come to me. 

Has
anyone ever stained concrete before, btw?
