Gosh, I haven’t written in a couple of d
ays!!! I am still sick, trying to get better!!! I had no idea how much snot one human being could create until after this experience…believe me…it is A LOT!!! A roll of toilet paper has been my best friend here lately!!! It seems to be moving across my entire face…like a road trip, ya know???

The Snot Mobile first started in Central Face. Stayed fo
r a couple of weeks visiting a little town called Nose Town! Hung out first at East Nostril, then West Nostril!! Went rock climbing in Molar Taverns for a couple of days, which is just north east of Chapped Lips, then headed north to Twin Eyes…two neighboring Cities located north of Nose Town!!! Went gold digging at Crusty Creek at the eye-hole near Tear Duct Well and then headed way south to Throat Valley which is located just across the border of North Neck!! The Snot Mobile is now setting up camp in the remote State Park of Laryngitis with great plans of exploring the Grande Esophagus!!! It will be no time before heading to the Chest Plains! I will keep you posted!!! Cough, sniff, sneeze…

Hmmm…that would be a kewl book!!! I think I know just the person I would like to work on this project with!!! One of my best friends son!!! His name is Nick!!! A kewl dude who has made quite an impression on me!!! I think his caricature drawing style would work well with this story!!! Plus it has a gross subject matter with a“trippy” edge to it…what teenage Artist wouldn’t like that???

Me shouting…“Raindeer, if you are reading this…I have a collaboration project I would like to do with Nick…okay???!!!”
Oh! And Nix Mom is named Raindeer!!! Yeah, it’s a done deal! *wink* BTW...I know how to spell "Reindeer"...Raindeer is prettier! Don't cha' think?

Okay, outside of me keeping track with the “Snot Mobiles” road trip progress…uh hum…I have been busy with other things!!! Waiting patiently for the first of the month!!! We are officially broke!!! So we haven’t been going anywhere…just hanging here at Tim’s trailer!!! But, I HAVE been nesting!!! Tim and I have slowly but surely gotten him out of boxes and have been sorting through his shit!!! The living Room is pretty much set up, as well as his sewing station!!! I have been hanging things on the walls and stringing xmas lights and scarves everywhere attempting to lively up the place a little! Plus, it seems to motivate Tim to sort through his things and get everything organized!!! We motivate each other!!! It is feeling like a home now and less like a storage room! Tim is truly an eccentric…one of the reasons I love him so much! He has beautiful things…treasures!!! Treasures that he has collected over the years that tell the story of his past!!! We live in a treasure box and Cooper is loving every minute of it! So, from here on out, I will call Tim's trailer "Treasure Box"...

It feels good now that everything is in place! It is nice and I am able to focus more without the distraction of “clutter”…! Unorganized clutter makes me claustrophobic and I cant focus!!! I am very anal about certain things (organization being one) which makes situations difficult for others who have to deal with me! I am very structured (believe it or not) and very “set” in my own ways (only because my way WORKS! HeeHee!) so, I don’t live well with people!!! Especially traveling!!! I don’t travel well with others either!!! I require a lot of space and silence!!! I am a BIG TIME loner!! I have been known to isolate myself for months!!! Tim seems to be the only person I can live with at long periods of time who doesn’t drive me insane (or visa versa), even with his inconsistencies!!! He somehow understands my weirdness’s!!! Too bad he is gay...I would marry him in a heart beat! *wink* But seriously, I love people…I am just an “odd bird” who enjoys alone time more then most!!! I love conversation, but in doses!!! I cant get enough silence...I thrive on it!!! I think it has a lot to do with my oldest son who is Autistic!!?? When Tripp was younger, he would scream all day long! For 9 years…he screamed, bless his heart! I think it got to me after awhile??!! I found myself tuning out other noises…like my fire alarm battery or cordless phone battery!! I simply didn’t hear these things!!! My friends would BEG me to change my batteries because it was driving them in-sane!!! Lol!

Silence. What a beautiful thing and completely misunderstood!! I think people talk too much !!! I think words are a quick fix to communication and we neglect our senses! Body language is so important and we ignore it because we depend and rely on words way too much!!! We should talk less and touch, listen and smell more!!! We should identify each other through our senses…it is sad to me that we identify people by what they wear or whether they can hold a conversation as opposed to how good of a hug they give or by what color they create while sitting in silence!! We don’t know each other, not really…!! Hell…we don’t even know ourselves!!?? What are we afraid of???

The clay is ready!!! We are ready to start creating!!! That is our goal for the next couple of days!!! Once we create our masterpieces, we will then paint them!!! By the time we are ready t
o paint, I will have the money to buy art supplies!!! Cooper is very excited!!! I will definitely take pix!!!



Next week is booked as follows:


Monday: I meet with my Attorney…
Tuesday: I have a Dentist Appointment…
Wednesday: I have a Foodstamp appointment…

Thursday: I pick up my reading glasses…
Friday: Weather permitting, finishing the backsid
e of my house…

Making progress!!! I am excited!!!


The other night, Tim and I are working on some projects! Tim was hanging a long curtain rod in the center of the living room! This rod now holds a curtain which separates the living room from Tim’s sewing center! I was working on putting padding on the back of a lap-board that was once Kayla’s! She was going to sale it at the yard sale from the other day and I asked her if Cooper could have it! She painted it years ago and I just couldn’t see getting rid of it…so I bought it from her therefore it would stay in the family!!! It was just the board, so I added the padding to the backside of the board!!! It is now Coopers portable desk which he uses for homeschool! Kayla painted “Dare to be Different” on the front side!!! It is perfect and is EXACTLY what I dare everyone to do!!! It certainly is what I have instilled in my kids!!!





Anyway, so we are working on our own independent projects when Tim decided he needed to go outside to the shed and get a tool!!! He walks outside and closes the door!!! It wasn’t once second later when Tim comes flying back inside saying, “Leigh!!! You have to see this!!” I get up and walk outside…I look up and
this is what I saw!!! Now, I have seen a complete circle rainbow before and I have seen a small circle around the moon before…but never this big!!! It was amazing!!! The pix do not do this moment justice!!! It was cold…still…and the world was completely lit up by the moon and its ring!!! It was beautiful!!! It felt as though the moon was looking at us…I told Tim, “There are no secrets tonight…not with ((that)) moon!!!”
