In the morning I embark on a journey in to the abyss...
On the hill I will arise...
humble and pale
my loins ache, my hands shake
This journey I undertake alone and without much
for the betterment of my soul,
for the betterment of my body,
for the betterment of my children
The great sacrifice, where i kiss death and dream of life...
Tomorrow I embark and when I emerge I will be unlike I was before...
A blog about travels, adventures and life passions!

New Blog
Hi everyone! Whewww, I got it done, I thought it would take a lot longer than that, but i was able to upload and transfer all the information from the old blog, I'll keep the other one on line for the next month or so that way most people who read it can be informed about the change. I hope it works better with google, I was having trouble with the other one, formatting and such difficulties, plus I could never get it to upload from my cell.
Ok so what's been really going on... I've been on the Rez for most of the summer as I've been doing work for the school. I've got a fall Tour Scheduled and am currently making money to break my truck (88' Ford Ranger) out from the hospital.
My lil truck went and broke down in May and it's costing me much more that it's probably worth... alas I have sentimental memories in that truck, particularly concerning my old late dad. He used to get into my truck with considerable effort and then he'd bounce up on the seat and tell me how nice my truck was. He'd pet the dash as though it was a puppy and tell me what a good little truck I had... nice memories... It seems like when I drive my truck I can feel my old dad sitting right next to me and well that's a bit of comfort I just can't part with.
So yea I guess fixing it is worth it. (wiping some tears as I write this post)
Anyways I'm also getting ready to embark on a spiritual journey... This is a personal thing so I'll just leave it at that.
I have a Comedy Show scheduled for August, my tour starts in September and I'm still doing ok... well that's it hope you enjoy

Searching for the one
Mood: hug me
Now Playing: Sah!
Topic: Summer Daze
Have you ever had one of those moments of weakness where you are totally committed to being single then out of the blue a man who could be the one approaches you? I haven't yet so I think... but then all my wiser more experienced friends who know better tell me that I have. Now I am left with my head reeling and my earth titillating on end.... (I don't even know if that's a word however I'll make it work) I don't know perhaps I met the one when we danced the night away that night all those months ago in the solstace of winters dread, then again perhaps I'm just being wishful... oh to go back to yesterday when none of this mattered and the only problem I had was that the rent was due and there was no peanut butter in the cuppord.... oh if only if only... the drama... anywas that's my rant...
Well folks I'm getting ready to head out on the highway my son will be done school in 2 days then it's a go.... yippee... As for the one, he'll have to wait, I got places to be and people to see, and if he's not mobile then perhaps in the next life I'll want to live in one place but not this one...
Happy Summer everyone!

I also have another Comedy Show coming up at the Regina Treaty Status Services Treaty Day Celebration on June 29, 2009 - 401 3rd Ave N - Regina, Entertainment starts at 7:00 pm. It's a full day event so come out for a full day of fun!
Yep so I'm feeling good and it's a good day to be alive...

Stand Up Comedy
Mood: incredulous
Now Playing: The Tragically Hip
Topic: Spring Adventures
So I am off to do a Stand up comedy show this evening, I'm not sure how it will go, I'm getting pretty psyched! My stomach is doing it's flip flop things, I'm sure that I will perhaps make em smile at very minimum. I'm hoping that some of my friends will show up and give me some encouragement. I've done it before where I've been on that stage with not a soul in the house who was a friend. It's a tough thing, but what the hell If they don't laugh, then I merely am prolonging my life as every minute up there seems like an eternity... *L*
I finally finished my web site renovation and I finally finished my Bent Tour site also.... so if you get a chance click the links!
Anyways if you all get a chance come on out to my show tonight:
Queen City Pub and Grill
9th Ave N & Broad Street
7:00 pm
tickets are $20.00 at the door!

Now Playing: The Cure... again
Topic: Winter Daze
Well here I sit yet again in Regina... I still long to live back in the RV... but in SK that plan is currently fatal if we did... it's too cold!
My little guy has been wishing to live back in the RV also, but hey we are warm and have one another.
I'm still processing my dad's passing and I have been missing him lately, I realized that it has already been a month since I last spoke with him. I know that the time will only get longer and the pain will become less and more depending on the day and moment. I can say though with 100% certainty that my dad had a good life and lived it to his fullest potential. I still marvel at all his accomplishments and know that I do have his strengths. I want to continue on in his pursuits of true happiness and commitment to a higher purpose in life.
I want to teach my son the things my dad taught me, virtues, self determination and to be independant and true to my own goals and dreams. And how to fix your own vehical... *L*
So I still venture on and know that I will be living life on the road in no time again and I will succeed.
And hey who knows... perhaps some day soon our paths will cross!

My greatest loss
Hi everyone! I don't know who all reads this if anyone, but we recently experienced a loss in our family, my father passed away on New Year's Day.
My Dad's name was Sterling Brass, he was a Great Man, a true Leader with vision and dignity. For those of you who are un-aware, my father was a Political Leader For First Nations through out Saskatchewan and Canada. My Dad was much more than that though, he was a Mushoom (Grandfather) and a Dad.
It's a very difficult thing to lay my dad to rest, however it was even more difficult watching him constantly sick and suffering with strokes and heart attacks.
I am sad, however I know he always loved me and my son, and I know that he is now in a better place and happy and well.
For anyone who'd like to see my dad's memorium and obituary I have posted a link below...

Brrrrrrrrrr!!!!!
Mood: cool
Now Playing: Chatter throughout the house
Topic: Winter Daze
Well hello there friends and family and all of you in internet land! It's too cold in the RV and we have moved into mama's house! Yipes! I know! Oh well we are learning... this is why I decided to stay close to home this year and winter next door (and plugged into) my mom's house!
Sigh... I have one electric heater but it's just not doing it for us and we've been experiencing a drain on my mom's electrical bill, so we decided to spend the next couple of months in my mom's spare room, till the chill goes and we get some warmer weather! Well at least we gave it a shot!
I am currently enrolled in a Carpentry Course and by March I will have my Level 1 Carpentry ticket and with a little more financial earning power perhaps this next winter I'll be more mobile in warmer temps...
Lakota is now attending a public school, quite a change for him as he's only been in school one other time when he was 3ish... he doesn't seem to mind it and I was told by his teacher that he's quite advanced! That gave me a proud moment, since I was not too sure he was getting what he needed from me as far as education was concerned... but cest la vie!
Anyways it's a good day today, my nephew's birthday - Sweet 16, happy days Wyatt... I love you!
And I'm currently in Regina... getting colder, and more Chistmas-ey i think I'm gonna have a good one this year... More will be revealed!
Take care all and happy holidays!

Topic: Home
Hi there! Currently I am in Regina chillin at my sister's house, my son is in the bedroom ill suffering with a stomach flu, poor guy was up barfin last night... he should be ok by tonight as this same flu ran through my sister's kids and she said it's only a one day flu strain... I am feeling ok, so anyways... here's about my life in the RV...
So it's like this... I am no longer on line, I have come to rely on the good will of my familiy and friends who allow me to use their computers... Also, I no longer have a cell phone so I cannot get any calls. Sigh... working for ones self is not always lucrative... Feast and Famine in my biz...
I have been working, though not steadily, and I have been spending my $$ on winterizing the RV... I'm not too sure if I will be able to pull this off successfully this winter, I am working on it, and hey time will tell!
As it is we are currently plugged into my mama's house on the rez, I have enrolled in a Carpentry course and hope to make use of my new learned skills with doing a bit of a reno in the RV...
Though I am also considering selling the current RV and going with a Tow Model, rather then the Class C... for something more light weight and the possibility of installing a small wood burning stove within it... Thus I am not too sure what is going to happen...
I am leary of putting a wood stove in a vehical that also has a gas tank... too scary... Therefore my logic is to get a towable RV and then install my wood stove, some solar panels and be virtually free of major expenses... don't know though... time will tell...
So far we've been in the RV using a small electric heater and costing extra on my ma's power bill... I believe that my son and I are now used to the space limitations, although I need to find suitable storage for some of my stuff! I really wish my mom would "STOP PURCHASING THINGS FOR US!!!!" from Garage sales... I appreciate them and they are great finds... but I have limited storage... *L*
I am happy to be able to blog though, missed this and thanks to my sister for the use of the computer... Stay Joyful and if you get a chance to laugh today... Do it! Its good for the soul...*L*

Tornado Warning

Topic: Summer Daze
Well Lucky and I are currently parked outside my sister's home in Regina, SK. Boondocking!! Early this afternoon the TV has been blurting out Tornado Warnings... We may live in an RV, but at least we are not parked in a Trailer Park *L* ... For those who don't know the province of Saskatchewan is the Northern Tip of Tornado Alley...
We went to White Bear Pow-wow this weekend with my mom and her girls... I don't think we will be travelling together after this... *L* There are reasons that children grow up and leave... LOL... I love you mom, but I think we do better when I visit you... and not live with you... LOL!
I am currently looking for a short term job to get some cash so I can do some travelling... The RV has been giving me a bit of problems this weekend as we went to the Pow-wow in Carlyle... gas line problems, I gotta change my fuel filter, I cleaned the carborator and that seemed to help, but I know there is much to be done by way of tuning it up...
So far life on the road is a matter of ironing out those wrinkles...
I think for now I'm going to go and lay low and let this up coming twister pass, peacefully I hope...

getting comfy
Mood: chillin'
Now Playing: sounds of slumber
Topic: Home
Well Lucky and I have been RV living for the past month now! I have finally got to a point yesterday where I beilieve that I downsized enough and have gottten rid of all the things I need to. I am around for the next few weeks then I will get on the road. I have been waiting to take a brief course that will be offered through our local economic development program. Then hopefully I can get off the ground and begin my adventures in travel.
My little one has adjusted quite well and happily hangs out in the RV whenever he has a chance. Our Catzilla is also adjusting, she is very interested in birds out side, and has tried to go out only once, however she is still a bit nervous when the RV moves, and sounds as though she is in a yodelling contest when the RV begins to move.
I still have to figure out things like the furnace, water, and stove... because the bus is old (I've actually dated guys the same age) I want to get those things checked out professionally. I did however have the engine and all that looked at before I purchased it, so I know it will keep running.
Anyways that's about it, I been planning a family reunion with my aunt and mom for this fall on the rez, any relatives reading this call aunt Mary, she'll fill you in!
Later!

Well Lucky and I have been RV living for the past month now! I have finally got to a point yesterday where I beilieve that I downsized enough and have gottten rid of all the things I need to. I am around for the next few weeks then I will get on the road. I have been waiting to take a brief course that will be offered through our local economic development program. Then hopefully I can get off the ground and begin my adventures in travel.

RV Livin!
Mood: caffeinated
Now Playing: True Final Love
Topic: Spring Adventures
So I have been a busy lady, been boondocking at my mama's house on the rez! It's been chilly... not sure how to get my furnace working. *L*
Had 2 Garage Sales, then just basically gave everything else to my niece who is doing a fundraiser, she can deal with the rest of my "stuff" ... had too much!
Now that most of the things I need are in the "Bus" as my little one and I have come to affectonatly know our RV as, it has been a comfortable transition into RV living!
Our cat on the otherhand is going stir crazy from the small space change, poor kitty!
We went to Vancouver and came back home, had a blast! I am a bit shy though to attempt a trip through our beautiful Canadian Rockies with my RV! Those Moutains were fun to drive with a van, an RV may be a challenge for a newbie like myself! I have been considering going to BC for the fruit season and making some cash picking fruit or working in the packing plants... more will be revealed!
Anyways, being out at the rez though i do not have cellular coverage, so I'll be on here a bit less frequently so stay tuned...

Well, I had myself what seemed like a productive day... until with the touch of one button it all went down the tubes! I was working on a very important marketing letter to be sent out on a mass mail out. Took me 5 days to design my letter and get all 100 addresses typed in and put into merge order! (not quite a technical whiz here)
Today my computer crashed, when it came back on line and i did some tweeking to my so called "saved" work and it went crash again... Next I got it back up and running then decided to go back to it once again... well I made some errors and decided to just close it without saving! That's when it happened! There went all my work, except for an empty template.
I took the rest of the night off! I am currently practicing being more patient with myself as I realize that I can choose to be my own worse critic or my own best friend. I tend to become more impatient when I do not live up to the high standards that I set for myself.
Today my self esteem is a state of being, I know that in order for me to remain serene and teachable I need to remain humble and be thankful for any lessons that life presents.
Anyways, Coga just came to me as I was typing this and declared that tomorrow is going to be a mama/son day... That means that he will have an opportunity to tell me what we do all day! He and I have been practicing this for the last 3 years and he enjoys those days! We ussually have some fun adventures. We are definiately due for another mama/son day as our last one was about 2 months ago... so it should be fun!
With that... good night ...

Well I am only learning about this being on top of the "blog" thingy... I have not been on here in a few days and thought it would be prudent to check in, not that anyone is reading this stuff... If you are "Thanks!"
I had the nicest few days in the last week, I have my young neice visiting us here and she is so helpful, she has helped me tackle the Darkness in the void... (In other words aka: plain english) My Store in the basement... What a monumentous task! And talk about the filth, (kk (neice) told me to start a new paragraph or her teacher would mark this blog at a 4 out of 5)
Those who know me via real life know that last summer I took the show on the road with a summer vendorship and started my Pow-wow store called "From here 2 there". Today I took the store out of the basement storage and gave it a spring cleaning and attempted to begin my inventory calculations etc...
Then as life always takes it's own twists, company arrived... So I stopped my task and enjoyed the last 2 days having a great and invigorating visit with my lovely Auntie Grace! Good conversations and cups of steaming Tea... sigh... that was rejuvenating...
so now I sit and blog... and I am about o embark on lifes sweetests gifts... A good nights sleep... take care all and if you see my buffalo tell me where it is...
yawn!!! G'night...

So Here I sit, once again impressed with The Creator and How if it's meant to be it will happen! I am learning that this universe will let you take the path your meant to take, regardless of the road blocks.
Enough with the Philisofical stuff... Ok So lately Da Bear and I been spending the last few days at home just hangin out. We have begun the down-sizing process, I am hating it! My home seems cluttered and messy all the time every time I turn around I see piles of "stuff" Most of which is either goin to my papa's or to be Garage Sale Stuff.
I woke up this morning in Fear that I would not be able to accomplish this, I have friends that are supportive, for that I'm grateful. As for my family It seems like they are somewhat supportive, but it's like they are waiting for me to come to my senses or something? I'm not sure...
My Current contract is coming to a close and with it, a rather healthy income... *L* So I have been pushing out PR like 90, and doing some tweeking with my Web site. I know that the Creator will help me if I do the footwork, It's happened so much for me in my life I just need to keep my faith.
I have been able to make some new connections with other On-line RV folks who also blog, I'm happy to hear from you and I hope that someday perhaps out paths will cross and we can share some stories and get to know one another.
Anyways, thats it, take care all

So I sit here and wait... anxiously, for what seems like an eternity! I want so badly to be on the road by now! I never knew it was possible to live my life on the road. I read about other people doing this and I am anxious to embark on my journey.
I decided to push my depart date back to the end of May, due to RV improvements and Renovations that are needed.
I am currently down-sizing my home and life to fit into our RV. I found someone who is willing to help me with some Reno that needs to be done to the RV. I want to install my "click-clack" sofa, where the other sofa is, and I also want to remove some of the closet to make way for Lucky's video equipment, and a few other things like new flooring and a CD/Tape player. Heaven forbid I hit the road with no tunes! Things like that, I also want to do some cushion re-covering etc..
Paint the walls, install AC, new fridge, W/D. (Oh wait that was a dream I had last night, I don't have the cash for that! Who am I kidding... LOL)
So I have a few things to do, I am so grateful that we are finally seeing spring!
As for my kid, what can I say I love him very much! I cannot wait to explore the continent with him!

March 30, 20086:34 pmToday was my mom's Birthday! 65 years young! My brother and sister and I all attended a quiet dinner celebration honoring her. It went well! I'm feeling a bit stressed right now, I am not sure how I will pull off the whole living in an RV I am wondering if I should give my notice tomorrow or if I should "just wait" for a bit, like maybe another month!I suppose why I'm hedging is because: The snow is not yet all gone! I still haven't fully paid for the RV I haven't done any reno's in the RV I don't even know if it's going to run long! It is pretty old! Anyways I will sleep on it and pray to the Creator for some guidance.Anyways, for those who participated in Earth hour, well done! My son and I sat in the dark for 1 hour with just 2 candles burning, and all the Power in the house was off, we actually turned off the breaker switch! It was nice, My son actually said " Mommy this is nice and peaceful"... so much for his electronic addiction! *L*Anyways thats it!

So today was a full day! I awoke to begin the monumentous task of sorting out my office, as an entrepreneure and pack rat, this task was undaunting! I first got through the waves of paper, only to find my table beneath it all! Yep I knew I put that some where! *L* So next it's attempting to create a filing system that will be light weight but somehow practical! I decided that I will need a saftey deposit box! For all that paper that is necessary, certificates, some memorabilia, etc... as I write this the Office is not even close to being done, however tomorrow is another day...
This is going to be one heck of a garage sale!
I am becoming excited! I know that moving into an RV will have it's low points, but last night I was checking out some of the reno's that people do in their units, and I was able to get some cool ideas...
The Work I do...
For those who haven't made a visit to my web site to see what I do for a living check it out! I am a busy lady!
<----- Check out my link "Brass Enterprise" to see what I do!
I just hope that I will make enough cash this summer with FH2T to keep us afloat! I must remain positive! I'm still working on the Bent Tour posters also for the fall, and now that my web site is done it should all be good! Yea I've been fortunate lately and have been asked to perform lately so that's helpful!
Anyways enough about "work"
Coga B Bear Brass, my baby son! I love this person so much! I feel very refreshed with all that I did today, I was still able to provide some much needed "family" time with my little boy! We watched "Over the Hedge" and made hand puppets and cookies tonight! Had a great time!
I will thus post on a positive and contented note that all is well in Annie Brass Land and sign off for today!

What a nice surprise!
Late last night as I was finishing up some work on the old dyno-puter, I got a phone call from my cousin Glenny...
When ever Glenny is around it's sure to be alot of food, good conversation and funny stories! Well today was no different, he's a bit of an early starter so of course he called at 7:00 am and decided that we (coga & I) had enough sleep and we should be out getting some breakfast! So off we went (9:30ish)... then it's back to my house with Glenny, My Papa, Coga & I and a Cajun Music DVD! Damn nice music!
Now the house is quiet and I'm back to sorting through my "stuff" as I'm begining the packing process and sorting through what's coming with me and what's being sold and what's being tossed or given away... Dad & Glenny are off to the Mineral Waters of Watrous! Sounds so nice and relaxing, I'm envious! But cest la vie...

Topic: Announcements
Tansi! Let me introduce myself, I'm Annie Brass, mother, poet, comedian... etc... Depends what hat I need to put on!
I am currently embarking on a life long dream! I have always fantasised about living on the road and working for my self! Over the last year I have begun my journey!
It all started last April when I quit my job with a secure wage *L* and started my own business! Since then I have been working for my self, and actually surviving! I owe a debt of gratitude to Kawacatoose First Nation and all those who have assisted me in this process! Megwetch!
I have been preparing for life on the road these last few months, though it seems spontaneous, I assure you I have been yearning for this for a very long time! And yes, I am someones mom, I have taken my little son into account! I have decided to "home school" or as others have said "road school" him!
I've been doing alot of re-search into "life on the road" lately and know that there are many other families that live a full and "normal" life this way. I also believe that my roots definitely extend back to my nomadic First Nation ancestors and this is my way of "hunting my buffalo".
I recently purchased my starter RV! (79' Chev RV) *L* It's what I could do with my limited resources, anyways it's not permanent but it's a starter.
My date of moving into the RV is scheduled for May 1, 2008.
until I post again...

Well I'm still on the rez, it seems like I've been experiencing a delay in my travels... I am working on getting on the road. I am hoping that this won't be for long. I have a great show lined up for August in Regina, doing some stand up. between then and now I am working at the school on Kawacatoose with the Odd job league of summer students dedicated to absolving the school from the perils of dirt and grime...(that sounds better then cleaning the school.)

Traveling Tipi Trails Introduction
Hi there some may already know of my blog as I was blogging using the following link: http://laugh-out-loud-co.tripod.com/Tipitrails/ .
Alas that has come to an end and I changed the location of my blog spot. I will attempt to set up an archive of past blogs though, until it is complete, you can click the link and it will re-direct you to my past blogs...
Ok so now that's out of the way, who am I? My name is Annie Brass, I blog about my life on the road as an entrepreneur, comedian, author, puppeteer, story-teller, and most importantly someone's mom. I have one son who travels with me and is road-schooled.
Ok so about me...I am First Nation, (aka: Saulteaux/Cree Native,Indigenous Person of Canada, Indian, Aboriginal of Canada) So that means that my immediate family and my rather large extended family with many many many uncles, aunties, cousins, Kohkoms, Mushums, and so on and so fourth will also be mentioned thoughout my various blogs as "we" the Collective Family are always interacting throughout each other's life and so on...Kind of an ethnic thing. Makes for very dramatic and entertaining if not down right confusing blog speak.
Once more thing is I aspire to live life on the road in an RV... hence the title Traveling Tipi Trails...
So that's it I will be blogging as often as I can and when I remember, sometimes it will be pure ramblings with lots of spelling errors and improper verb play and other times it may be quite intelligent, no I 'm not split personality's it's just sometimes I make sense and other times I don't.
so I hope you enjoy... take care
Annie

So that's it I will be blogging as often as I can and when I remember, sometimes it will be pure ramblings with lots of spelling errors and improper verb play and other times it may be quite intelligent, no I 'm not split personality's it's just sometimes I make sense and other times I don't.
so I hope you enjoy... take care
Annie
