LOVE ALL, TRUST A FEW, DO HARM TO NONE - Shakepseare
-------------
So it's been yonks since I have posted a blog. So much has happened. So much and so little.
1)I was offered a job, and then they promptly (next day) rescinded the offer because an internal candidate wanted it and was qualified and cried fould play about hiring from the outside. Have a phone interview for a job today at a lawyers office, but until the offer I am still looking --- So I STILL NEED A JOB, and I'm talking like RIGHT NOW PEOPLE, so if you hear of anything, let me know.
2) I had my cousin's 4 yr old (Fiona - FEE) for 10 days. Having not had a 4 year old to look after for the last 14 years, was not helpful in this challenge. I have almost never been so exhausted. It was fun and now I am known to her by the nickname "Bumblebee" (Come on, Collette IS a hard name when you're 4)
3) Some friends broke up, some friends lost a child, some friends I got reaquainted with (and am so happy for- hullo bellisima gente de FDR!) some friends I miss dearly and just don't get the chance to see often enough.
4) Chelsea leaves for Florida Southern College on Saturday. She is a lifeguard at the pool there, will be rushing greek and has declared Bio as her major. I think the last part may become something else later. She'd be a great grief counselor at a hospital, or a forensic psychologist, or the cheif medical examiner at Orange/Osceola County.... (OH WAIT, Dr. G. already has that job...), speaking of Dr. G. I snagged a luncheon with her in September and will be bringing a book for her to sign for Chels and maybe ask her to impart some advice to Chels.
5) Chris got some vacation which he kindly shared some with Fiona and I at Islands of Adventure on Sunday last... now he has I thikn till the 19th still left for vacation so we are spending it being together when we can, which is lovely.
6) Did a photoshoot for Del Vecchio - new headshots - his agent asked him for some, so that was fun, the business is taking a little back seat until I get Chelsea situated in college, then I'll be back up running hard -- I forsee late September to start up the engines...
7) a lot of other little things, but that gets you up to speed a little bit. This last month was just plain exhausting... paperwork piled up... laundry piled up... creativity piled up.. no excuses... it's a new month.
