Hanging out in DC

Wow ... all I can say is I cannot wait to bring Lizzy back to this amazing city!  I have so much I want to see and only one day to see it in.  I spent the last four hours walking around DC and grabbing a bite to eat.  Tomorrow I think I'm going to check out the Holocaust Museum and then get all my stuff ready for work on Monday.  I love my little monster and I cannot wait to get home to see her.  Miss you Miss Elizabeth ... mommy will be home soon.

AmericasMart

Well today was a success although not sure I'd come back for this reason again.

We spent the day 'teaching' summer school to a select group of retailers.  It ended up being mostly people from the Southeast but was still beneficial.  There were a few retailers who did not currently sell Chef'n and a few more who were getting ready to open up shop in the next few weeks/months.  I am spent though, repeating the same message 10 times in one day was quite enough. 

Headed to dinner tonight with an industry peer and his family.  What a fun night.  I miss you Lizbug and having dinner with three sweet kids made it a little more difficult but I made it through.  It was great being able to Skype with the hubbie and Lizster last night, wish I could do it every night I traveled! 

Off to DC tomorrow to work with a rep on Monday ... no use traveling back late Saturday just to turn around and travel back to DC on Sunday to work Monday so I'll be walking a bit more of the show tomorrow morning and then flying to DC.  I've never been before so it should be fun!

HotLanta ...

It's been a few weeks but I am on the road again ... heading to Atlanta for Atlanta Market.  Should be fun, but will definitely make for a long day tomorrow.  I'm walking the show looking at different showroom space on Saturday and then heading to DC.  I'll play tourista on Sunday as it made more sense to stay on the east coast for a day then fly back Saturday night, back out Sunday, to work in DC on Monday.  More to write later as I need to download a few photos from the last few weeks for the personal blog. 

Peace out for now from 36,000 feet.  I generally love wifi while flying!  My battery is about to fail though, now all they need to add is a power source for seats in coach.  Is that possible?
