Things I LOVE: RESTARTING

Hey Y'all!! I've left you hanging I know ( but please know you can always find me on Facebook, Twitter on Instagram - I'm *Kinda* a social media FREAK!) in any case if you haven't heard I moved to LA!!! HOLLYWOOD. My favorite place in the world & the place I always dreamed of living.
It's been an amazing ride & I keep having to pinch myself that this is my life. Like SERIOUSLY?! But with all the amazingness that I have been enjoying there is still LOTS of pain, loneliness & tears in my new life. I mean I did up-root my life. A life that I had previously spent 28 years working for.
I had a nice little suburban house, I had a cat, I had friends, I had a companion. I made dinner every night & I celebrated every holiday to the fullest.
Starting over from scratch is SCARY and not easy but I'm fully confident that this new path I am on is the one I was destined for and I'm so grateful & THANKFUL for my parents (all three of them), my sister & her roommates for doing all they could to help me through one of the hardest months of my life.
I had lots of plans for my time down here in LA (styling, social media consulting, promoting substitute teaching, selling at the flea market, dancing gigs & to get my blog back to regular posting!! Thank you all for your patience as I re-start my life. Until then here is a quick recap of the past three weeks of my new life since I moved to hollywood!! I've been going to Fashion Events.
That's myself, Talor Jacobson & My new friend Bad Joan!!

I flew up to San Francisco to go on a Banana Republic shopping spree and was invited to walk the red carpet and attend Al Pacino's new Documentary and exclusive after party. THANK YOU BANANA!!
"The highly anticipated exploratory documentary film “Wilde Salome,” directed by and featuring Al Pacino, made its U.S. debut last night in San Francisco at the Castro Theatre.
Actor and director Al Pacino, producer Barry Navidi, Banana Republic President Jack Calhoun, Banana Republic VP of Marketing Chris Nicklo, burlesque actressDita von Teese and designer Jean Paul Gaultier attended the premiere, presented by Banana Republic. The exclusive after party went late into the night at the Fairmont Hotel Penhouse suite, where guests celebrated the film and mingled with Pacino. All proceeds from the event benefited the GLBT Historical Society.
