Without ya'll I would be a mess. I can come back to the motel all discouraged. down. click here and laugh and be encouraged. Ya'll give me the energy to continue.
ThankyJustSonny and rookietrucker Thank this. -
you staying in the super 8, or the roach motel across the street? my roommate and i went to the roach after a few days cause it was bigger, but the breakfast sucked. So we sneaked over to the super 8 and got a good breakfast.
Have you met Wally yet? (the DOT guy)? he's funny. If not, ask him about "Chaaz". and i'll leave it at that. -
We are at the Cedars Inn...do not even ask me about this place. Hubby stayed at the Golden Oak an before I entered school I stayed there for a month and never had to worry about going outside any time of the night, no fights an at least ya got a continental breakfast. Here you can watch em dealing drugs in the parking lot, fights at the next door bar parking lot most nights and prostitutes coming thru the parking lot here asking if anyone wants a date. Oh an no breakfast at all, they dont open the thing until 6am cause thats the rule. I am going to let the school know what kinda place they have opted into. I dont expect the Ritz but this is just rediculous.
Sorry had to vent cause the assistant mgr just came to our door saying some customers complained that my roomies jeans on the banister looked tacky. She was drying out the pockets that hadnt dried in the dryer which doesnt dry the clothes either. I lit into him n said you know what looks tacky is what I mentioned above. He turned a lil pale when I told him I was letting the school know in the morning. -
Wyldfyur Thanks this.

No the one across the river is Golden Oak. Apparently people complained that there are no stores or restaurants nearby and they were not eating so Swift got this other one. Its on main street by the Salvation army.
I talked with the folks at Swift about this motel and I understand their point of view, its just discouraging when you have so much on your brain to learn and you cant relax when ya get home or sleep thru the night cause of the fights in the parking lot or across at the bar. But I am thankful to have a roof over my head, which many dont these days, I guess I am just overwhelmed with school atm.
I am definately having a hard time trying to pin down backing. Just when I think I have it mentally it doesnt work when I try to put it in motion.
Forgive me I am just a bit down atm.
Luv ya guys. -
Wyld, its ok to feel discouraged now and then. It is NOT ok to let it beat you. Tomorrow start fresh. Backing will click when you least expect it and you will wonder why it took you so long
Wyldfyur Thanks this. -
I had so much trouble that I had to break everything down into tiny pieces and then take little "think breaks" between the pieces. I learned that I was moving into each next step too quickly and not STOPPING before I began to turn the wheel to begin the next step of the backing excercise.
Pay very close attention to your instructor. I know that your classmates want desparately to help, but, too much input from other students is not a good thing.Wyldfyur Thanks this. -
Thanky so much ya'll. I really really needed that. Apparently I am using to much wheel and not letting the trailer do its thing before I do something else. Hubby says to watch my rivets so I am gonna try that tomorrow and Sam is supposed to be there, Hubby swears by Sam. So eyes wide open hope eternal.
JustSonny Thanks this.
