WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!
🕑 Added 2022-05-22 02:25:35 +0000 UTCFirst off… how are you?!
What’s new?
Things have been WILD on this end. Like… so so wild and wonderful and chaotic. 😅
Last weekend I worked the Risk On business conference in Vegas, put on by Todd Ault. This was my second time working for Todd and it turned out to be amazing! Well… except for one thing… which is no fault of his… and I will save for the end of this blog. It felt so good to get glammed up! Well, this is my version of glam now. I typically wear no makeup largely since we still have to mask in LA for work, but I was happy to have some fun with the ol’ cosmetics since I didn’t have to mask in Vegas.
And of course I got some pics before getting dressed all the way. We all know this would be my real outfit of choice!
I took my whole wagon setup which turned out for the best because I ended up working on something like 30 people between the Friday and Saturday. 😅
And I ended the weekend by doing makeup for A-Rod!!!! I had no idea I was going to be working on all the speakers, let alone him. (Initially I had been booked to just do make up for Todd and his wife.) he had someone recording and taking photos while I did his makeup, but I thought it unprofessional to ask for any of those. The next day, my friend sent me the screenshot of his stories on Instagram and I was psyched! I’m pretty sure by now we all know that I don’t watch sports, but he’s a huge name and I’m so thankful I get to add it to my portfolio AND I have a photo!
I was thankful to be home since that meant some time with JD. I didn’t get nearly as much as I thought I would since I work such long days, but it was nice to be home. On the way back to LA, I stopped at McDonald’s to get some fries (this has become my new vice!) and I saw this really cool wall in the bathroom. It just needed documentation because… well look at it! (This is in Primm, in case you’re wondering.)
Here is where things get weird. I had a sore throat Sunday, so I took an antigen test at home. Negative.
Had to test for work Monday morning with another antigen test. Negative.
Monday night my sore throat felt a little bit worse, so I took an at home PCR. POSITIVE!!!
Naturally I freaked out
And immediately did another PCR and an antigen. Both negative!
Tuesday morning I went to a lab to get a PCR test. Negative!
I isolated Tuesday through Thursday since I felt like I had a cold night I also didn’t wanna spread that.
Spent time with my pretty flowers from the farmers market and did some journaling and had a bit of time with my oracle deck JD bought for me.
(I’m using this for introspection, not spirit communing since I’m still relatively new to this stuffs.)
I love this card so much. I feel like it is my soul in a card!
Pigged out on burgers, fries, and fried pickles Thursday night from Uncool. 🤤
Friday morning I felt great so I went for a hard workout and then went to work.
Had to do another antigen test. POSITIVE!
We did another one and it was also positive.😫
So, it’s official. I have the Rona!
I dodged this for two years, but it makes sense that doing makeup at a conference unmasked would bring this on. 😅
Anywho. That’s where I am. I have been toggling back-and-forth with being extremely upset because the next couple weeks are ridiculously busy. I have double shoot days (two projects in one day) and commercials back to back to back and I really don’t want to miss that money. So I’ve been extremely worked up at times when I worry about that, but I’ve also been trying to meditate a lot and find a lesson in this. I know there’s more to life than money, and I keep trying to remind myself of that. And in all honesty, writing this is super helpful because so much good has happened in the last couple weeks, and even just in this week, so I can reflect on that.
Thankfully it’s only felt like a cold, and not a bad one by any stretch.
So I’ll be here, resting until I test negative. Thank goodness for grocery and weed delivery, btw. 🙌🏻
Love you all!
Be safe and make the most of things! 🤗
