With my husband, Calvin trying to get me deported and his constant yelling at all hours of the day and night and then apologizing 24/7; I still had things to do! For as long as I am still in this country, and still alive, I better make something of myself! Right? I buckled up and kept driving. Above was my first time at the Disney Studios in Burbank. I must say, I was kind of overwhelmed with excitement and gratitude when I set foot in this location that morning around 5/6am. I was playing a parent of a cheerleader in Code Black. I worked with Boris Kodjoe, I have a funny story about him,
but I wouldn't post it here because mama doesn't wanna get sued, chile! Rob Lowe was standing next to me in one of the scenes. How exciting it was to be standing to a guy I have watched season after season on Brothers and Sisters (one of my most fave shows ever!); The Legendary actor, Luis Guzman, sat and chatted with myself and a guy I was sitting with. He talked politics, especially Puerto Rico, the crisis that had happened there. His passion about his home country was inspirational. Marcia Gay Harden was nice and seemed down to earth.
P.S. What you're seeing there is a fake injury, great make up, right? Even I was impressed!

The sun still rose in the East
I booked The Doctor's TV Show. I was lucky enough to find parking within arrival. It's in the middle of Hollywood, so between that and street sweeping, good lucky. But I'm generally a lucky person, so, thank you universe! Speaking of luck, I was lucky enough to get the only copy of Dr Travis Stork's Diet book that they were giving away that day. You know him from being The bachelor back in the day. Now, he's a co-host on The Doctors.

You know me, I love new beginnings. As we end the month of February, take a moment to reflect back on what you have achieved, those that you had worked on and the magnificent outcomes that came out of nowhere; and give thanks. And as we enter March, think about what you would like to achieve this month, be it job wise, weight loss, relationship, emotionally, etc. Write those things down and look at them first thing every morning the entire month and do something everyday, towards achieving them.
Thanks again for walking this journey with me. I gotta head to Orange County for "work".
