New Carpet

   The new carpet sounds like a whole new change.  Well, change is certainly in the works when it comes to a new carpet. Everything needed to be removed. Clothes, lamps, books, beds, dressers, etc. were all removed from the bedroom. They weren’t packed they were just removed – It was going to take 2 hours at the most to lay the carpet. Where to move everything? Close to the bedroom because it is an easy peasy relocation.  HA!

         Because of this remove and return, I felt a positive change in the air.   It is going to be different, not everything is going back where it came from.  The big items yes, but there is a re-evaluation happening in my mind and in the bedroom.  A place for everything and everything in its place. And a question, what do I really need?

The livingroom is under here somewhere.

He did this alone and cleaned up.

Getting ready to Install the padding

The padding is down

Now tonight will be spent putting it all back – well as I mentioned not all of it!

 

 

 

Why Every Designer Should Practice Their Speech

In design, presentation is persuasion. When you practice speaking as much as sketching, you build trust, authority, and excitement around your ideas. A polished pitch can make the difference between a “maybe” and a “let’s do it.” Remember your voice is part of your professional toolkit. Use it well, and let it sell your vision as powerfully as your designs do.

NETWORKING …. WHAT HAPPENS AFTER

Networking is more about follow-up than first impressions.

Sound as Good as You Look

Trade shows can showcase your talent and brand but shouldn’t cost you your voice.
