it's off to work we go...hi ho hi ho

Snow white, that is what my french teacher said i reminded her of when i was 14. I only have 2 dwarves though!! enough.

Left the cape today, to get to rochester . seems as though my most perfect people tested me all day. in the end patience was sacrificed. If i here myself say stop it one more time..

evidently i didn't sleep well.. madeline told me i woke her up screaming in my sleep. something about the motor home. but it was undistinguishable I never remember my dreams, just my day dreams!

i just got a smile... as Andres watches indiana jones, and they mentioned "when the cows come home" I say it all the time, and one day when Andres came home from school, he announced the cows were home!! and everyday there after, along with the warmest hug a person, much less a mom could receive. and with that melts away the annoying day, and lets in the sun as it sets over syracuse, at the late hour of 9:15 pm. love summer here. hot as hell, but beautiful, the farms streaming by as we cruse at 75 mph. Madeline made popcorn and we ate it as we drove, and watched real movie time.

while driving today i got a call from the IRS, they r auditing me for 2008. she was to call me on tuesday, but no decides to call me again while i'm driving. as i was talking to her, on my cell, i kept saying... i'm driving. at least 10 times, till madeline started screaming, that's our exit to

I-90, all of a sudden i'm screaming FUCKK... I MISSED MY EXIT, GODDAM I, FUCKKK.!!!! she took the clue.. off the fing phone... wants to hook up with Alfredo and i in the next few weeks, is she kidding. over my dead body. haven't worked in months and i should fly to florida. is she nuts..they'd pick on me now. what the heck, lets see i haven't got money to by groceries and she thinks i'm cheating the government, quite the other way around, if u ask me. maybe the government would like my house, fuck i sure don't!!!!!!!!!hahahaha and she can have the PT crusier Alfredo crashed last month too. they can cash in on that worthless art i've collected at art shows through the years, maybe that should do it.!!

hell, i haven't a sarcastic bone in my body.. she can really take it. and all the other stuff i bought into, about the american dream.

i'd like to be free of it all, keep driving down the road, with smile on my face, and a lot less responsibility. just the rent, my crew... and me

lov to all

Stop to smell the flowers, not just the roses!! and keep your eyes open for the boababss

It's Tuesday, and i swore i would sleep in, evidently according to my body clock 7:42 am, is the limit to that.

I am deeply conflicted... The way i set the schedule for shows this year, was based on years past, and so choose to try out the cape for many weeks, after this weekend, I'm not so sure this was my best choice. at least not financially. now what gets to me is the relationships being forged here in just over a few days. My neighbors in the campsites around me are tremendous people, and my crew has found friendships, and fun, and a lot of laughter, with the children here, of their same ages, i hear Andres laughing and it sends me to heaven and back again.

Unlike in years past, where we are in a different location every week with so much time driving, we would be in one place for many weeks, and so we could all have the chance to make friends, mostly it would be nice for the kids, we were invited to join, a group at the beach after the show, and did. it was so nice.

When at first we met Bob, it turns out he is in charge of some ministry, which of all things has it's main office in .... ok wait for this.... L.A. La Brea and Sunset.. less than 2 miles from Roots Place. do the coincidences ever end, then later, Chris, another camper here, comes to check out the new people on the block, Us, and it turns out he writes, and even crazier, is a "Mason".. for those that don't know, my grandfather on mom's side, was a Mason and her mother Agusta, was eastern star, so i feel a draw here but can't quite put my finger on it.

As for now i will contemplate . . . I do not want to choose between personal growth, and financial. and frankly don't think i'm in a position to choose. and yet, i must then completely rely on faith, that i am where i am supposed to be, right now. ... and everything will be just fine. hopefully better than fine.

oh and about those blue flowers i mentioned previously that are out side of the many quaint cottages of the cape this year, along pretty wood fences, when i returned home to the camper, on my picnic table, was a glass, filled with the beautiful, blue flowers and a note that said.."see u next weekend, Kate, Chris, and Emmet. Can u beat that? I swear i hadn't even mentioned my love for the blue flowers.

devine.. let it stay that way.. continue on with the good stuff of life.

and may it all work out so i can "Pay The Rent"!! too funny right?

love to all, my deepest.

my dear and beloved Venu...

thank u. bcause of this letter i shall set sail. was a little lost this week, with much to do. finding one's way around a town u don't know. i have no idea, why this year my show schedual needed to be this way. i did it. i made this decision based on an hypothocis (sp) sick of looking up every fucking word, cause i csnt type, ad i cant spell, so fro this poi t forward expect less spelling and more meaning. . i fucking love u. one e mail. phone cll. text. can change u. encourage. in lighten. praise, or be praised.

what more want to say than to thank the person who sent it to me.. Rita. quite the woman. look for ward to seeing her again. an the tape. will share

It is very beautiful here. the roads are tunnels of trees,opposed to the vast vistas, of L.A and surroundings And blue flowers are, evidently, the color choice, this year or what was for sale!

work in excruciating heat 2moro , then wed and Thursday, we, just enough time to do laundry and grocery shopping, and get driving on friday morn, to rochester, 8 hrs, for sure. what was i thinking.? i love to drive though. and this is always a challenge. lots of things to pay attention to. frankly have to do this, differently. have some good ideas. as i formulate will share.

this may be my next blog, have u checked it out? do u think i could get 1000, readers? now wouldn't that be crazy!

ah, here i am in my motor home, it's quite. we have made friends at the camp ground we are staying at, seems everyone here likes to have a good time. fires in every space around me. and an invite anytime. The crew are making friends, which gives me a minuet to myself, time to text a friend, to too late, and write a word or 2 today.

god it's so fucking hot. and the weekend so far really sucked. but i still have 2moro and the wed, thurs. then off to rochester, and maybe baltimore. we'll see.

gotta get going. friends and fireworks. well maybe not fire works... had that last nite... hahahaha
