Yahoo!
I am sure that no one really cares but - the office (and by that I mean the kitchen) is FINISHED! Now I am dreaming of a sunroom... :)

In memory...
I just found out that one of our wonderful clients passed away yesterday. She became a client post K and was a wonderful Mommy who refused to travel unless Bradley could stay with her girls... if he could not she would fly in a friend to do so or simply not go. She made sure we saw them five days a week mid day. She even built a sunroom and put a doggie door so they could go out to the room and enjoy the sun when they wanted to. She loved them so much. She never missed any of our events so some of you may know her from those. She was very active in the agility community and competitions and I can't even guess the number of awards that she and her babies took home. She told me she was sick when she found out. We talked about how scared she was to leave them... It broke my heart. She was way to young to go and I know she is watching down on her little girls and her Mother and her pain is gone now. She touched my heart and I am proud to have known her and honored that she trusted us with her beautiful little girls.
I dedicate the rest of our day to you and our little girls...
Just thinking should be working...
For me the 4th of July is full of many firsts...
One 4th - I drank my first draft beer and the reason that is significant is that was the last time I drank draft beer. That same year I met two puppies - brother and sister (named Diesel and Flower) named by a little girl and I thought those names where magical and I was so happy that her parents did not make her change them or discourage those. It was also when I decided I wanted brother and sister babies. I also remember that 4th because I got to lay on the grass and actually see stars... you know when you live here that can be impossible - especially when you don't have grass and in the city, it is never really dark. That was also the year I learned that grown men ignore "do not shoot these at people" type warnings. It was a BLAST - no pun intended.
I moved into 3101 Prytania the week/weekend of July 4th.
The 4th of July was my first big holiday after opening NOLAPC. The company was so small that my Team schedules were written on post-it-notes. This week of the 4th my staff schedules average 5/6 pages a day. I would have never dreamed.
This 4th, my kitchen is almost finished and I will be moving things back in.
Next 4th? Hummmm Can't wait to find out.

Need a sofa?
You can't see the superior quality but this one is on St. Charles Avenue near Fresh Market. It is black. They positioned it facing the park so if you want to just go and relax I am sure it is super comfortable and clean.
Hurricane Season
This time of the year we always reinforce our Hurricane Policy and ask Parents to have a bag ready to grab if we need to head out. This smart Mommy put bottled water too. I love it! Thank you SB.
He can't stand someone in the kitchen...
Not because we have strangers in the house... no - he wants to eat again.

Tweets from the week of June 24 to June 30.
The first one cracks me up. One day a lady was passed out on 8th & Prytania and my neighbor made her a jelly sandwich and we rotated checking on her until she was awake. It took us almost an hour... poor darling. It was Superior Gill that got her! You gotta watch those margaritas honey.
