August crept up on me and raced away leaving deeply embedded skid marks before I could catch my breath to write and update you. Nevertheless, the very patient, subdued reader which you are didn't mind at all :-) and I sincerely appreciate that!
Somewhere between the 1st and the 5th of the month, I made a personal commitment to reach out more, and to help those who are terminally ill and battling blood cancers. It truly is in giving that we receive, and that's a HUGE discovery once it
finally clicks inside - a light goes off, and everything around you is so much brighter! So, I am raising funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society by running a marathon in January! Yeah, the whole 26.2 miles! Woohoo :-) If you would like to donate and help towards this worthy cause, please

Now if you're an actor or you're in the business, you know the grueling process that it can take to land one role...but you never really hear about that part :-) so I would like to share one with you. This month I had the amazing opportunity of auditioning for the lead in a national theater show. I sent a tape up north; it was reviewed and I got a call from the director asking for another tape. It was such an honor for me to be speaking to this guy because I've only ever seen his name on the big screen, and I really love the work he does. Anyway, he gave me some pointers, I followed them and sent up another tape. Lo' and behold, I received another call a few days later! and he said that it was between me and one other candidate. Cut a long story short, various factors came into play and I did not end up signing the dotted line, but I'm sure a very beautiful, talented young woman did. The beauty in it all though, is that I may have the opportunity to join the team later on. It all rests in God's hands!
This month I also dabbled in some behind-the-scenes work and ended up script supervising a Microsoft video shoot! It was very relaxing, I must say :-) and a great experience. And I dealt some Texas-holden! Yeah, at the Product Design Show decked out in my 'dealer' outfit! And to top off, I worked the annual Premier Beauty Show in Orlando. It's always fun.
And no telling who will be carrying a wand in a fairy outfit for Halloween...
