An old man's career goes flat, Snackbar moves to open deck

It looks worse than it feels. I have had it worse. So bad I took Epsom salts baths and spread oatmeal on over half of my torso. This is just on my forearms and hands.

Gloves would have been tough running a chainsaw, which is where most of this came from. And if I would have had long sleeves, my pics would have been from the ER while I was getting treated for heat stroke.

 

I got a msg from Ops telling me to contact another driver picking up at the same shipper. He had been doing skin loads, then had to sit for 3 days waiting on this load. We are supposed to go in at the same time, and we have to wait until the shipper has been paid for the stuff on our trailer before we leave, and it says in the load info to be patient (which is never a good sign). He said his is a 12'5" wide, my load doesn't say legal or oversized so who knows. He also said he cannot deliver because the receiver doesn't allow pets, even in the truck, and he has his dog with him, so I may be taking his load in the gate if we arrive near the same time, or babysitting his dog while he delivers.

 

I still have Daniel, haven't heard if they are training anyone yet
Corey, that's the guy I am meeting to head in to pick up.

 

I showered with Fels after I wrapped up every day. That was one of my mom's go-to remedies for poison ivy, chiggers, dandruff...kinda an old timers cure all. That and Witch Hazel...Witch Hazel was the only thing that made my hands stop itching the other day. Ivarest, calamine, benadryl gel and some other OTC itch gel would stop it, but witch hazel did. I got some apple cider vinegar and baking soda for another alternative if the witch hazel stops working.
