Snow possibility in Houston! Geez it's a high of 76 today!!

Wow Houston weather can you make up your mind!!  This is why so many people get sick!  We're turning the A/C on then the heater in the same dang week....or day!! Well at least I got to wear my heels today!! 


76 today....then possibility of snow on Friday.....oh lord!

Audition

I went on my first audition on Friday!! It was scary and exciting at the same time, I thought about turning around like 4 times.  I've been called to other auditions but I never went, I was too scared or nervous to go.  After doing this audition my mind is made up that I will go to all of them from no on.  ☺  I mean all I'm doing is playing a character, what am I afraid of.  I thought it would be something totally different.  While sitting there with others that are auditioning for the same part, I felt weird, I couldn't talk to them or even look at them. HELLOOOO we're competitors...lol!!  I'm gonna have to approach that differently next time.

It's for the lead role in a non-paid, short-film.  Which is fine, even if I don't get the part I need the experience of going to auditions.  The director and producers said I did very good for this being my 1st audition.  I'm not sure if it's just what they say or they actually meant it....oh well!  Should hear something this week!! 

Well I know I won't become famous overnight, it's hard work until you can catch a lucky break!!  I hope mine is soon! ☺

My Grandpa

It was 2yrs on 1/27 since my Grandpa has been gone. I am the 3rd oldest grandchild of 12 and 1st oldest granddaughter of 8. These are some of the memories that I will never forget. He taught me how to drive when my parents wouldn't & yelled at me the whole time, lol! He scared all the grand kids to not touch his stuff, if not he'd smash your hands with a hammer or cut your fingers off, lol! He was missing part of 2 of his fingers and always said Grandma cut them off cause she was mad at him.  He always bought us a coke & a candy when my mom would take us to visit him at work. He could be scary, but he was sweet & joked with you. He loved to be outside working in the yard. I have pics. of him always making silly faces.  He helped to raise us when my dad wasn't around.  He had his rules that didn't make sense when I was younger, but now I know why he had them. And sadly the last memory I will never forget will be of him taking his last breath in the hospital.  Whether my memories are happy or sad this is all I have left of him......


 I love and miss you grandpa!
