Heading into the weekend

Still reeling from last weekend. Ha!

Killed it at the festival last weekend, and still haven't caught up on my sleep there. The first day (Friday) was a bit of a rocky start. Issues with water and electric hook-up. Luckily, I do enough festivals that the electricians all know my name and expedited my issues. I ended up having my 3rd highest sales ever on Saturday, for a festival. Since I am goal driven, that tickled me. On Sunday, the weather looked like rain and I was whipped, so I sent out my main driver in my place. Thank God for small things. It rained and the festival closed early. Everyone got a few extra hours sleep that night. Except me. I haven't been sleeping.

My dad had texted me the first day of the festival and told me that my step-mother passed away. If we are being honest, I have caught a lot of shit this week for not shutting the truck down when that happened. I don't have an explanation for why I didn't. I just didn't. My dad didn't need me to. He is in a bit of a state though. I have been there every day since, except last night.

Life continues to be a tricky balance. This morning, I am revolting work and staying home, but I have A LOT to catch up on. Heading to my mother's in a few to get her squared away for the weekend, then to get groceries for my dad, then to work on the truck tonight. Can we say need a vacay?

Oh, and Taco Tom did come over on Monday. I got a reward for my hard work and grief over the weekend. My son is house-sitting for my niece on her honeymoon. The quiet in the house is nice. I think I just need a few days of quiet and rest, but the truck doesn't really allow for that. Next week, I have an 8000 person event at a local hospital. It should be about 95 degrees outside for that. Wish me luck and hydration.

I had planned to be online most of the 10 days that my son is gone, but with my step-mom passing those plans have obviously changed. I'm just doing my best here. Thanks for continuing to bare with me.

Now head on over to CB and grab a video. I am still planning on being a snowbird this winter and your video purchase helps me secure that.
