The first real post of 2011

The last pic---I just love....... love Liam Neeson.
I have spent most of the day working--doing admin work. Preparing for an audition, RDC II auditions, my rehearsal, and loads of computer work. It seems to never end!!! On other news, I begun taking ballroom lessons again {for the umpteenth time}. But, I think I have an interest in my teacher and visa versa. That's all that I am saying. I'll see if this has any future or not. Hopefully, the former.
I have started teaching hip hop again. It's only one genre of dance--hopefully, it will lead to other genres {smile}.
The ex--well, he's just that. I am so tired of his meaningless emails and non-exsistant thoughts. A new year--a new interest--well, I can dream!!

Halloween

Well, first of the "official" holiday is here...no real posting just a holiday them hello!! A new blog wil return in November! With lots of exciting news......

The ending of October is near, and.....

Listening to Oasis--I know I hate Oasis!! But love Wonderwall--although, I think Robbie Williams does a better job w/ it. Now listening to The Cult! Love them.... Just sitting here at the library {so fun}!! Not really and typing this--very fun--loads of it...wish I had my laptop--that my "friends" stole from me. Oh well, things will change and the tide will feather in my direction!! When it does..... I miss watching TV and being on the laptop at the same time! Oh well........
I had a call for ballet class today and an email for another ballet class--now, watch they are DIFFERENT CLASSES!
And........I was not approved for the disability. That is something that I had a strong feeling about. {it has to do with astrology--and more on that one later}
Well, enjoy the pic {I do--the only happy thing at certain times --and thisis one of those days}--than GOD for music!!
Watched {or tried to}Saw 3---I couldn't do it! Too much for my taste. But yet, I watched Wes Craven's Dracula 2000!! Go figure!

October has arrived and news

A nice start to the weekend!!!


Well, a new month has arrived - alot has happened. We did go and live in a hotel and it is so much more positive and all...no "strange" people to be weird {or act for that matter}.
We had a meeting w/ a prospective client for MISA last week and are just awaiting the approval to work {if hired}. Our NY contact set up the meeting--he couldn't go--so, we went instead.
I am also awaiting the outcome of my disability {that will a be a big amount--all of the back pay}. I have heard zero and nothing--I don't know whether I am approved or not. I keep calling the main person in Austin and its always next week, next week..... They have 120 days to discuss the case and guess what day it was when I called? That's right the 120th day. Good Lord!!
Classes have slowed down...now, I have dancers for my Rep Series---a male dancer just emailed me a couple of days ago. Oh yeah, I still get calls/emails for classes and they NEVER SHOW UP! What is with that??

I still am hurting----it hurts to teach/dance after 2 hrs. I guess its because I have inflamantion in my hips-due not having enough $$ to go to the chiropracter for a long time. {Since losing my income last October it is difficult---things are very hard}.
On a more positive note--we might move in with a freind to help her and us finacially. That would be great!
More later!!

Spooky month approaching!!

Had a dream about him posting comments! ^&&%%$

Supposed to be working--but am taking a break!! October is nearing--yahoo!!!! Have my first rehearsal next week---excited? - yes.

Good tidings con't

A new pic of Nikki!!!

Well, the lady did not respond back {for mom}--but, it could be nothing at all. Yesterday, I had to teach. I probably will have to teach a private for a 30 min session. I also have a dancer who is in collage who is interested in dancing in the Rep Series. So, in all...I got a bit of $$$. It really pays off when self employed and you make something. I had a dream about Dr. Taylor this morn--I was getting married to him!! *&^%!!! If only..... {sad face}. I did a Twitter account for Dancer Enterprise...finally. Also, been doing admin work today.....

Just listening to Blue Monday the same song that Roger Taylor spins when DJ'ing! Love that song... and now What Happens Tomorrow....... {his drum work---fantastic. I also saw a new pic of Nikki!!

Good tidings tomorrow??

Tomorrow my mother is supposed to have a meeting with a "good tiding" Yay!! Today, I have to teach in 2 hrs and 45 mins! Hip Hop and a new student. More tomorrow -- hopefully with an update!

Septemeber is approaching...

Well, it is almost the end of August and a new month awaits. First of all....the pics...well, Mr. Kerr {my original favourite singer and man}. I have 12 files of pictures of him--so he's my favourite!!

I tried to change the colour w/ the copy/paste and no avail!!

Anyways, alot has happened and alot of it is so crappy {due to people--or personas}. Anyways, September is in two days. I have people coming to class, applied for the disability {classes are in case the case is turned down}, met a new guy--who is 9 years younger than myself--and from Argentina. We talk every now and then--but he always just stares at me and it looks like he's looking right thru me.

I am at a new place --been here for the past two weeks and not really liking it. We might go and live in a hotel for a long while. I never -- or we never thought of living like that!! No deposit, furnished, and lights/water is included and wi-fi {if I had a laptop of my own}!!

{and, again the colour is black........ oh, well}

Well..... no more for now....although, I have a story to work on--something I have been living thru for the past 2 weeks. Again, enjoy the pics of Mr. Kerr {or as his fans know him, Jim}!!

News, news, and more news.......

There is alot of news to mention and all of it is very good. I don't have time right now to write as I am still working...but it all has to do w/ dance, rep, classes, MISA, and performing. More later....

Close to the end of the year blog!

Well....it has been 10 days since the last post. Some has happened--some has not. The biggest worry is still present--but not as bad. This worry has been present ever since October. So, with the holidays approaching...its holiday time.

The news that I am supposed to post is this: an old employee of my dad's contacted us and after talking has decided to do some networking for us. In our biz {security} a man is better than a woman. We are also doing some advertising. He said in passing about apartments that offer live on courtesy officers in lieu of monthly rent. So, I slept on it and came to a realization. Why not pitch an idea to apartment communities about live on officers in lieu of rent?? So, we did. It is weird mixing business with looking at apartments. Very foreign!! We visited 2 complexes today and had a good response at one of them. They just opened and are looking to expand out into a 2nd officer. So, we have to bring out an intro letter and speak with the manager Monday.This will help tremendously if we can get a live on in terms of $$$.Mom does most of the talking as I am still learning about how to approach clients. My deal is the office....admin work!

In other news.....I just concluded the last performance of 2009 and for the retirement home. This week I am going to look at some more centers {and bring the portfolio}. I am also working with a young lady in NY who is interested in doing the centers with me.

Really, nothing else to "report"---I am sick of this place and really want to get out of here. It has not been a pleasant place....makes me wish I would have stayed at the first place in Kingwood!!

****Oh, of course, my so called friends have not called once this year to see how I am doing or my mom. They will have a BIG change coming in 2010....a big one!

And December is upon me....

My moment of zen......okay now onward....

I have been away from the computer for a little over two weeks---and just got the laptop back. It had to go on a trip to get me some $$$. Anyways, alot has happened {as always}. Mom and I have come to the conclusion that this thing with the pics guy is not working out. There is a multitude of different things that is not acceptable. Of course, I cannot say anthing--I am not the person who is driving. But what I will say is that this person needs to pull their head out of their a**. There is just so much that is so petty and not to mention the way you show respect to people.
So, the thing will be going back real soon.....


This month has brought me a new thing---I went to a retirement home and inquired how I could help out. I asked if their were any performing arts groups that provide entertianment. Guess what? No, there wasn't Amazing!! I was really surprised. {I suppose watching Joel Osteen does pay off--if you can recall the sermons}

So, I got myself into a gig and and 3 days to pull a show together---matter of fact, I performed this past Saturday. How does one pull a show together in 3 days? Very simple --you have alot of repertoire that has remained stalemated + you perform pieces that you can do in your sleep! That's not all...... there is more. I have 3 more shows to do! Is this unreal or what!! Be careful of what you wish for---because you just might get it. Seriously, I have a real good feeling about this new venture.....I feel its going to last a long time.

Well, that was been going on......went to the store yesterday---the frezer side is totally stocked. You know the light in the freezer? Well, I cannot see mine!!!

Busy day at its end.....

and, aaahhhh...the pic below pretty well sums up the day ended on a good note. Not to mention seeing him isn't that bad either!! Oh, his name! Kip Winger. We share a passion--ballet. He is a muscian {of course} but he did dance for the Colorado Ballet a LONG time ago....

Oh well......

Happenings {!!}

Well, here I write! I have been so busy. Still haven't bought anything for myself. I am listening my playlist on this blogger--Bedroom toys! you know what Simon was thinking about when he wrote it--bedroom toys....hmmm.... a Scorpio!! But, it's catchy!!

Busy bee have I been.......meeting this person, going here, paying this, eating here. Get some sleep...get up and repeat. What a life, huh? I figured I have been on a LONG A** vacation--so now, it's time to work. Ha Ha. My aunt is in the hospital---she fractured her shoulder---ouch. She's out of commision for at least 6 months--and Christmas is coming---oh hell!

So, we are waiting for the liscensce to arrive from Austin. The Crown Vic is in the shop---having more work that should have been done before! We talked business yesterday with a neighbor who is actually going to be helping us! Exciting!
I had a job interview this past Friday and was hired then she reniged and did not b/c my choreo did not depict classical ballet---hello--choreo!!!! Oh well, my gain at another place....I have another interview. And, the "new studio" where I supposed to work---well, I told them I was leaving! She did not know when the studio was opening, no enrollment....just a huge mess.
Well, my classes {Dancer...} begin this Wednesday.

I have pics from the road trip to up north!

Enjoyed my ballroom--but the manager was trying to gauge me on the price and tomorrow is my last class. If you'd tell me the truth and not lie you would have a succesful business and I would not leave....but, oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles. But, I hate it b/c my teacher is Latin and cute and just so sweet!!!

My beau {ex--I dunno what he is anymore} sent me an email by and invite {u know like facebook has invited u....} to RDC's and my personal email. I guess he is trying to say "I messed up." I am like "really?!" Well...men, what do you say??!!

A real post is forthcoming.....

With so much to do, I am trying to keep up to date--running two biz's {well, one will be operational in about a week and a half}. So, while I update stuff, enjoy........

Dr. Taylor~~~doing his thing!!

***Oh! I updated the website with adding a page titled Falling Down---which is appropiate for Tidbits***

Recap from the beginning of the month

So, where to begin? It was a long week/weekend!! I am tired, but satsified {spelling}. Let's start......

Wednesday-- received my mortgage {hooray}, watched a movie with Steven Seagal in it--never seen it and missed the end of it, watched SYTYCD, watched another movie Belly of the Beast
Thursday--got rental {yay}, went to Po Box, Mall, Kroger, ate at Casa Ole, went to Best Buy and bought a 4 pack movie collection of Steven Seagal, Led Zeppelin DVD {but it is going back}, and Queen + Paul Rodgers live CD {great music}.....one of rock's greatest voices {but did I know that? No.}
Friday--had dress rehearsal, and did film as well in costume!
Saturday--stayed home and watched a little of TV, printed out the programs, then stayed a couple of hours at a friends house and talked
Sunday--neighbors were allowing thehir wild animals {children}run around the apartment and it was rude and unethical. Made a complaint. Went to the studio got everything set up...turned on the air. Left and went to grab a small bite to eat. Came back and got ready and then performed.
And.....on top of everything my hips were out of alignment!
Today, I have a couple of things to tend to also. I might have to move if the neighbors are asked to leave--becuse the manager is not talking to me now {b/c she doesn't understnad my views---which is personal and has nothingto do with business}.

***to hear Paul Rodgers voice--listen to All Right Now {on the playlist}

A real post is coming!

In the midst of running around like a crazy fool, rehearsing, pictures, and filming---I am tired! I am the middle of prepping for my concert.....

So, a real post is forthcoming....I promise!!!

And, yes, my hip is giving me problems--just lovely; Plus I am sore from dress reh last night!

It came to a crashing halt!

Well, lots of news to tell…and most of it is not good. I had classes--this is what happened.

First my assistant misses class and does not show up to the rest of classes. Second, the two new students were supposed to register Monday, did not. Then, I had a class schedule to teach on Thursday and she cancelled. On the same day, my manager emailed and said her boss was out and all of the flyers had to come off of the doors/windows. That was the last straw. I got fed up tore up the flyers, took everything down, and told her I am not going to do the classes. Of course, she said I was being negative. I figure it this way. I had a business deal go south because of someone dropped the ball, running low on money, and classes did not bring the $$$ in like they are supposed to because no one ever paid {and it was right there in BLACK AND WHITE}.
So, that day was brought to a crashing halt. I still have not emailed my apt. manager back and it has been 2 days.

I did turn it around though----
I decided the one thing that CANNOT be taken away and be told sh*t things is MY SHOW. Already, I have three interested people who will probably be there.

On the door of the fitness room, were my flyers and a man was looking at them and the look on face was like “I can’t workout because of the class schedule everyday’.
Then, Michael Jackson passed away, and that day was me reliving the passing of Hutch all over again.

So, that was my update, outlook, and present state of mind.
Due to all of people’s sh*t--I figure it this way……
You give me problems, well, no one will dance---so everyone suffers…..except for me!

In closing, I have a show to prepare for that I cancelled b/c of a neck injury {should have never done that}. It has been 2 days since this incident and I still feel the same was regarding the classes here. But, my mind is better and more positive.

An Update--finally

Okay....so, after a long wait here is a recap. I spent all last week out of the apartment and getting everything ready for classes. I enrolled four students and five classes were formed. I had an assistant {yes, past tense} but Sat morn she did not show up for class and I was there. Granted, I felt terrible--but my butt was out of the bed and ready for work. I was not happy at all. I am not a morning person and I was up out of the bed!! So, Sat morn was not wonderful........then got back home and went to Deerbrook to eat a bite.
Sunday--the long awaited Criminal Intent and it was good!!! Next weekend is a double eppy--looks good!!
Today, well, is registration and basically, alot of waiting for people to deicde to show up. I am suposed to have 2 young ladies come in a enroll--it is 3:17 PM and no a soul--we'll see!!

Finally--an update

Please visit my blog via myspace to read what has been happening!!!

Read "The Update"

Falling behind, injuries {!!}, dance/teaching

Hello.... and hello to Dr. Taylor!! Would love to be in that bed beside him. Just talking about the music biz...nothing else--promise!!

Okay back to reality!!! A girl CAN dream!! Well, we haven't heard from the financial backer since speaking on Friday night. We have both emailed her and all---no response. Her nephew {the young man} is no longer responsible for the funding--so, it is not his problem.

So.......no news....I just hope she pays the fees before they go up even more. I have done plenty of emailing/calling--so, I will send one last email and if no answer we will tell the young man that due to the falling behind, we no longer want to move forward. Don't want to do it--but, what else do you do??

My neck is acting up again....like that's something new. I guess its going to be my new stress indicator!

Tomorrow, I am getting my last of June's mortgage...then to the store. I also have to begin on working on the schedule, registration, and enrollment forms.

So much work...so little time!

And.......a pic of Mr. D'onofrio!!
