  • The old building was a flurry of activity today. Lots of people packing things. All things considered I think we're really well prepared for the move on Friday. Phones and Internet went down at the end of the day today so Dennis could take them downtown and get them set...

  • Today David, Millo, T, Robbie, Charles & Rick put together 13 workstations for the design and programming area and another 6 tables for the Story Lab. By the end of the day they were pros. The workstations look great and continue to make the design and programming, maybe, the coolest...

  • Today was actually pretty uneventful at the new building. David did a walk through with Beth from Spectra to go through the flooring to check for anything wrong. A couple minor touch up things but nothing big, besides the chunk of drywall that was damaged in the reception area but...

  • This morning David & I did a walk through of the building. Except for the carpet tiles inside the offices and edit suites on the east side of the building the flooring is done. David spent a lot of time there Friday and Saturday to make sure everything got done....

  • I think this is the first time I have posted twice in one day. I am only doing it because there has been so much progress since this morning. By the end of the day, the lobby had been stripped and prepped, the base boards were done on the west...

  • The first two webisodes were posted on the website today. I'm obviously very close to the situation but I think the videos tell a good story. We hope the next webisode will be posted tomorrow. www.ideas1stg.wpengine.com/ideasnewhomeOur cabinets were installed today and they look awesome. Just like everything else thus far,...

  • For the last 2 weeks David and I have been anxiously awaiting a red cent sighting. Red cent is the accent color on the East side of the building and for whatever reason, the painters haven't done any of the walls with that color. The anticipation was killing us but...

  • Today was a busy day. We had what was probably our last presentation to our staff about the progress of the new home. We have them every two weeks and two weeks from today is day one of the move so we certainly won't have any meetings that day. I...

  • We had a change of heart today on some painting. We have this great building with the new offices and great paint and we know the flooring will only make it better. It was brought to our attention that the offices on the west side of the building that we...

  • It's been a couple days since my last post. Since then the painting has progressed quite a bit. Painting got off to a slow start but they have made a lot of progress in the last 2 days. Yesterday the door frames for the new doors went in. We also...
