Could the month of October have gone by any faster?  I am so sad Halloween came and went.  It is by far my favorite holiday.  I think it must be the kid in me.  I have always loved dressing up and playing funny roles.  All the way from a “baseball baby” when I was a kid to a “cave woman with plastic babies stuck all over my cave outfit”.  Yes, that is what I was this year.  I called myself “Quatro Cave Mom”.  Perhaps that is why I became an actress.  I love to play other people and of course make them laugh.

        Oh and for those of you who e-mailed your funny jokes, thank you so much.  I really enjoyed reading them  If you did not get a chance to read or should I say see the Joke of the Week last week, it was from someone who did not want me to share their name but they sent me something from You Tube.  Click on this line to see the video. Please, if you have more funny jokes, send them my way and I would love to post them.

        This month at Lowd Suga, I have some lovely new items for your holiday purchases.  I have some new purses in the “Accessories” section and of course, I always have new jewelry items each month. Usually, I post and item of the week on my Lowd Suga Facebook page. If you haven’t had a chance to join or would like to see what we have available check it out here or you can just go to www.lowdsuga.com

        In some “Days of our Lives” news, we had our exciting event Saturday, November 07, 2009 at Universal City Walk.  I hope you were able to come. If you did, were you able to meet your favorite actors on the show?  If you did not get to come, there will be, if there aren’t already, videos at www.dool.com or www.nbc.com. So glad it did not rain this year like it did last year.  However, so many of you were troopers and waited in line anyway to meet your favorite characters.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I had a great time.  I didn’t stay for the entire day because well, I am almost 9 months pregnant and that was a 9 hour day.  I stayed 7 hours. I thought that was pretty good.  The one thing I was sad to miss was I heard that Bryan Datillo decided to show off his body. I am sure all of you Lucas fans loved that moment.  He is a brave sole stripping in front of all of you fabulous ladies.

        Well, I am pretty much down to the wire and going on my maternity leave.  I can’t wait for my little peanut to arrive and of course later on down the line will be sharing mom news with you. I have had a pretty great pregnancy so far.  Thank goodness because Nicole was into a lot this year. I loved the work that I was given.  It was so challenging and amazing all at the same time. I hope you have enjoyed her journey down trouble lane. Strange, I found myself rooting for her. I hope many of you did as well.  This character has so much love she wants to express and can’t seem to grasp quite how to do it honestly.  However, that is part of the excitement of the day to day drama that she brings to all the Salemites.  What would you like to see happen to Nicole next year? Would love to hear your thoughts.

        Well, my friends that is all for now.  I bid you a fair morning, afternoon or evening. Whenever you have read this and until next time…….
