we found the photoshop disk. well, kevin found it. he’d FILED IT somewhere. nothing ever gets filed around here, at least not to my knowledge. on the one hand i’m very glad it’s been found, but on the other hand, what else has been filed that i don’t know about? now i have one more place to look for things, in the filing cabinets.
but then i realized that even though i could now alter the photos, i can’t actually put them onto the computer yet because the slot in the side of the laptop doesn’t fit an xd memory card. but at least i’m a little closer to doing it. meanwhile, i sit here in the office and worry about the piles of stuff some more.
here’s what it looked poolside at the mirage, where we stayed.
by the way, in that last entry it was supposed to read “bake” anything not “BAK anything.” i just re-read it and wondered what i meant by BAK. bake. so you know.
the pool at the mirage was quite nice, and even though there were millions of chairs, they weren’t all filled. and even though the pool was quite large, there weren’t that many people swimming in it.
here’s me outside caesar’s palace, at least one little part of caesar’s palace. caesar’s palace goes on and on and ON, and they’ve built a whole bunch more shops since the last time i was there, so it takes about three years to walk the whole length of it.
why am i sitting there looking like such a dork? i can’t tell you.
this is one little part of the conservatory at the bellagio. only i don’t think that’s the right word, conservatory, but it’s a big glass-ceilinged place with many lovely plants and flowers and right now there’s a big ferris wheel.
enough about las vegas right now. here’s a great photo of kevin and david on the roof yesterday. kevin was hard at work and david stopped by and he was sitting in the kitchen and i walked out the front door and heard kevin talking on the roof and thought maybe he was talking on his phone, but david had scampered on up the ladder. kevin finished that whole side of the roof yesterday, putting the final piece in place right before and i mean RIGHT BEFORE a torrential downpour.
the weather was perfect yesterday, as it was today, except for a small amount of random rain.
here’s mom and jim, hard at work. while kevin toiled on the roof, mom and jim installed the entire floor of the boat. pretty amazing. and as you can see mom is hard at work carrying big pieces of boat around. mom is a very hard worker.
here is Honey, who had to come out and be part of things and roll around in the street, which is one of her favorite things to do. luckily we rarely have any traffic on our street.
as i was busy documenting all the hard work going on around me, i had to take a picture of these lilac bushes. or “bushes” i should say. we ordered them online and they were VERY VERY SMALL.
we planted them at least a month ago, and they’re not getting much bigger. they’re the two little tiny green sprigs in between the big bushes. at least they didn’t die, like the other two bushes we ordered online.
i love the smell of lilacs, but i seriously doubt that these bushes will actually grown enough this summer to become actual bushes next summer. perhaps we’ll go buy some real bushes.
that’s all for now. i hope you survived monday; i did, but only barely.
ok then,
monday grace.
