Hi Jo and friends,

  It’s been awhile since iv updated. I have been busy preparing and the time just fly’s by. Picture a Hamster in an exercise wheel!! That is me!  It doesn’t matter what time I get up in the morning, I can’t seem to get it all in before I run out of energy for the day.  So my house is not as tidy as usual and my car not as clean, my family is not getting many extra yummy meals right now. They have been great by the way. My little team here at home. My husband cooks fish and makes Salad to that I’m never without food, my son Vaughn has been cleaning his dishes so that there are no leftover pancakes for me to be tempted by whilst I’m in the kitchen. They also are champs when I’m feeling really crabby!! And I hope they forgive me when this is all over..:)

These next 10 days are a flurry of making appt. for tanning and hairdresser for the show. I got artificial nails put on this week (I have never done this) they look lovely! I have 2 photo shoots to prepare for, so need to do a bit of shopping for cute little things to wear. I’m making lists of things to not forget and I’m also packing already.. Can’t be too prepared right?

We are renting a condo with kitchen and iv already googled the grocery stores I will need when I get to Las Vegas to buy my fish and veggies, bottled water and such. It will be so nice to cook my meals instead of relying on restaurant cooks, not to mention the expense. I’m also bringing my espresso machine as usual, cuz I have a horrid caffeine addiction to which I’m not ready to part with. I’ve already given up wine, I will NOT give up coffee.

I’ve sent with my note today a photo of my new favorite shoes and snapshot of me taken last weekend by my friend and photographer John Busselle. I will write one more time before I leave for Las Vegas, until then, take care and train well

Lisa..:)
