Day 16: On Inside the Actor's Studio James Lipton always asks everyone, "What profession other than yours would you like to attempt?" No matter how long I run this house I am still an actress, but if I couldn't be an actress I could be a teacher (especially of children & I have been) or an event planner. I actually attempted to start an event planning business, but in the building-my-resume phase my wedding clients decided not to have one after all and that was the end of that. Nevertheless, I love having a party to throw. I can plan any event, but most often I get to do birthday parties for my kids.
I'm so grateful for creativity and resourcefulness! I'm very grateful for traditions, ceremonies and celebrations! I'm grateful for my children's enthusiasm about festivities. I'm grateful for Mike not only tolerating my party planning, but pitching in to make our crazy ideas come to life.

Why give up after only one client didn't have a wedding? If event planning is a dream job you shouldn't let something like that stand in your way.
