Boom 5 minutes later…minus one minute for laptop still starting, 30 seconds for adjusting file, and the other 3 mins 30 seconds spent solving the problem 
so as I have said before pictures speak louder than words:-
So I right clicked on the component, did inspect element landed on **class=“DayPickerInput” ** so to the right of that I scrolled down to .ud-dashboard which was being set to white…So I changed to black and problem disappeared…However changing this could have impact on other components on your dashboard…so personally I would use ud-style to style just this component with that change
