    Still here in Goodyear. KW gave me good news and bad news. Good, power steering pump was shot, they have in stock, will be fixed tonight. the bad. they dropped the drive line to look at the pinyan seal, found a bad splicer. Not in stock. They have to call eaton in the morning, one, how soon, two, who is paying. My student, well, that is another story. The DL in Columbus wants him back there since we are not running team, re-evaluated. My DM, wants him off the truck right now and let PHX take care of the problem. Still can not get the QC down, and all of a sudden, taligating. Does not matter how much I am sitting in the passenger seat. There is something wrong.

    got the eye surgeon to sign the release papers friday. Went to fontana terminal to turn it in and safety in pheonix told my dl to send me to clinic for another d.o.t. physical. Passed with flying colors :). now waiting for safty in pheonix to release medical hold. did the required log class today and have a sims class schedules wednesday. then safety will sign me off those. Hopefully pheonix will release me by wednesday so i can get a truck and back to work. Its been a hard and stressfull 2 1/2 months sitting on my rear waiting for eye to heal. Surgeon said someone was watching over me cause he didn't expect my eye to recover like it has. He said my deteched retina was pretty bad since i waited so long to get it look at

    Just got into Wilsonville Oregon, nailed my back an debating if I want to go to bed or not since I will most likely be night driving tomorrow if we don't get held back a day after unloading. The pacific nw has its own rules

    Looks like stuck in Goodyear for another evening. Have to rebuld the rear end. Parts on order. Turns out some water got into the end so no warranty on that. With labor and parts, $2100. I knew that the breather valve was bad and was fixed a couple of weeks ago, but it was to late. Water already got in.

    Lancaster tx terminal, I was sitting in the waiting line and a mechanic came and asked what my issue was and I said the A/C wasnt working well blah blah, he told me pop the hood and he pulled out a horrible clogged air filter so went to the parts department and got a new one, I stuck it in and the ac blows harder now and a little cooler but the bunk still isnt cold, just cool

    I was preplanned for 2 loads, t-call load to Dallas only a few miles appointment time 7am tomarrow then I pick up a load right after at home depot and heading to colorado which unloads at 20:00 the next day so not too bad of a week so far for me.
