Actually, I went to the gym for a month because I have a swimsuit shot with the Body Glow cosmetics of the skin care line.
CBS started to confiscate our packages and mail as a safety procedure. A lot of packages that people send for the holidays and to our kids we can't open. A lot of times they are from overseas. It's very upsetting at times.
Fans can e-mail me and know that I do check it every two to three days and try to respond to all their inquiries.
However, one of my best qualities is being able to organize my priorities and then, when it is time to shift gears, I can do it.
I had just won the lawsuit against Melrose Place.
I have a really great relationship with God. I pray. I read the Bible.
I kind of thought the writers were starting to take Taylor and make her kind of down and dirty.
I like to give the fans advice, so what I have been doing is working with the fans directly through e-mail, which is really unheard of.
I really like to communicate to my fans. I have a fan club president who I've had for over 15 years.
I told him that I can play it if he wanted to write it, and I would be willing to try and go there emotionally. I did not know as an actress if I would be able to get there, because when you feel really deep emotions or pain, you don't want to go back there.
I was moaning and grieving as if I lost one of my own children. It was probably one of the most real feelings I ever had on the show. I was just sitting there wailing with no lines. I was beat after that storyline.
I was willing to check out what was happening in the world of feature films and primetime television. I had gotten new pictures made.
I would like to see Taylor get involved in a real psychological problem, like when James Warwick (played by Ian Buchanan) was on the show.
If I was a bad character that got away with murder like we see on other shows, I do not think I would like it because that sends a message that you can do these horrible things and never pay for it.
In September, I left the show. We were going through discussions and negotiations, and I had been on the show for about 11 years, and there were some things that I was asking for that I didn't feel were the moon or the stars.
It was scary, and I knew what it was like to be an unemployed actress again.
My children are the focal point of my life. I was asking for a little more time to spend with them.
My husband has come so close in his career to really being in the right place at right time, but it didn't happen.
One girl was helped from my appearance on the show, and I swore I would not keep quiet again. When you talk about things that are embarrassing or devastating, obviously you can help people when you do.
So, not only am I panicking over the weekend if I need to know my lines, but also if can I get the kids to the zoo. Can I even go to church? I was asking for certain things that would allow me to plan my life a little better.
Taylor goes a step further in her manipulations in trying to keep people away from Ridge, but she is a psychiatrist.
The house seemed so empty without him. And I thought about the life we'd been building together for all that time. I realized I was on the brink of losing it all. It just scared me into reality.
The main concern was making sure the kids didn't get caught in the middle.
The only problem with the way they do my character is that they have her get redeemed too early.
There are many other pediatric eye diseases as well that, if they are detected early, are preventable. Not one child should lose their eyesight.
There are times when it gets competitive between us. When that happens, we'll sit down and talk those feelings out.
There is really a whole new appreciation when you leave and then come back.
There was a storyline this year where Taylor lied to Brooke. It was supposed to be set up in a way that I was so outraged by her that I let it stay. I thought that was human, which was great.
There were negative people in our lives who were a major contributing factor to a lot of our arguments, a lot of our problems.
Unfortunately, since the Sept. 11 tragedy, our business is not doing too well.
We cannot really communicate with our fans.
We share responsibility. It's important to have a good spouse; that's where I sympathize with single parents.
We were led to a pediatric ophthalmologist. It's a hard date for me, April 14, 1998. The doctor came back from the examining room and told us she had tumors in both eyes.
When Taylor has to do something bad on the show, which is hardly ever, she always pays for what she does, and that way I am cool with it.
