A Clear Channel - Day 87

After 25 years in show business here in "Hollywood" I've finally decided following through on requests I have been getting for years about turning my knowledge and experience into a business. I have secured the domain name for Ask Stage Mom, a coaching service for anyone who wishes to get into the business or take their show business career to the next level. It is ideal for actors, writers, comics and solo show performers. Today I met with a writer who is working on his solo show. He has a meeting with a prominent director on Monday and wanted me hear his show, edit and punch up some jokes. We were both happy with the results and I'm excited to hear how his meeting goes on Monday.
Following the meeting, I met with my walking buddy Kim, and we took our 3 mile walk around the golf course in Cheviot Hills. There are some beautiful homes over there and we saw a 4 bedroom, 3 bath, 1 pool home for rent for $6,400. a month!!! What kind of job or career does one need to have to be able to afford that and why? Needless to say, when they do the open house, we will be "all up in there" just to be nosy. Stay tuned.

A Clear Channel - Day 77

Spent the first part of the day making my reservations for New York. My mom and I will be going to South Carolina to see the newest addition to the family soon! I just checked my email to get the itinerary, but I don't see my mom's reservation. I'm starting to get a little annoyed with Delta Airlines. The representative I spoke to today said that my flight to Ireland had never been canceled and if I hadn't called today to redeem my balance, all of that money would have been lost. Now that same helpful representative only sent me an itinerary for me and not my mom. Guess what I have to do first thing in the morning? Back on the phone with Delta...again.
Took a nice long walk to run some errands today and signed up for yet another weight loss challenge. I'm gonna keep signing up til one of them clicks. More often than not, there has not been enough interest to keep one going, yet there seems to be a huge concern about health and obesity lately. Let's see what happens with this one. I liked what the trainer had to say and her approach seems on target with what I am trying to accomplish. I'm enjoying the walking, but I feel like I'm ready to get back on my bicycle and do some long rides along the beach. The weather has been overcast here for the past two days, but I can feel a bike ride coming on...

A Clear Channel - Day 64

I've been doing so well with my walking, I didn't realized I had already walked 3 out of my 5 days this week. So I can take tomorrow off! I'm planning on walking with a buddy on Friday and the walking group on Saturday. I have two workouts planned next week with other like-minded evening people. That early morning thing just does not work for me and I'm not going to fight it. The days are longer and the weather is beautiful. By the time fall and winter rolls around it will be just a regular part of my day. My legs feel strong, my knees are doing fine, but I don't want to push it. I am a little tired and aching. Oooo, a nice long bath would feel so good right about now. I have a feeling I will fall asleep before I even run the water.
Went to my financial class tonight. It was all about extra income, part time jobs, home based businesses etc. That is the main thing that I realized from taking these classes. I need to find some additional ways to make money so that "in-between" the TV & film jobs, I'm still able to comfortably pay my bills and save. Working at Starbucks or Dominoes Pizza is not an option. I must be brave and start to implement these fabulous ideas I have in my head. Implement and follow through. I can't do them all at the same time, so I'm gonna pick one and go for it! It's time to create my own empire. My legacy.
