Where are you

Well,####...Someone should come out with a handbook of "fun" Truckstops... And thus,what I am going to do when I retire,is just now born.

 

i think there's a thread already

 

Umm,I am NOT talking about good places to eat grub.. As I am sure you know what I am talking about;where IS that thread? And so,just like that,Mitch is gone....................................................

 

My husband left about 9:30 AM for the Little Rock terminal, called at 10:53 AM - "UMMMM, honey, I believe there is some packs of lunch meat and cheese in the refrigerator which I forgot to take with me. I remembered the bread and only needed that due to the lunch meat and cheese I bought. Could you please bring it to me and pick up a pack of Cotto salami on the way? By the way, do you have enough gas to do that?" (By this time I have turned the car on.) Me: "Sure, I can do that, I have 3/4 of a tank of gas but this will leave me with very little money because I am very tired right now and will need to buy a cup of coffee in addition." Him: "I will give you $5 to make up for the purchase of the Cotto salami." I get there, give him the stuff he asked for and we BOTH forget the $5 he promised me! LOL Well, guess he needed the $5 more than I did.

Since this is scheduled to be the last week with his trainer, he has NO time to be able to eat anything with peanut butter or nuts because of my touch/airborne/ingestional allergy - for him to eat nuts, he needs to be away from me for at least 3 days which since they will come back on Thursday (not sure if he will stay at terminal or at home that night because he will be doing his after-training evaluation testing on Friday) means he would have to stop eating nuts on today. With that schedule why even take nut products for him to eat - his trainer can do what he wants, of course.

Hubby and trainer are headed to Jackson, Mississippi.

 

Egan, LA.......

 

Ardmore, OK, heading to Laredo.

 

What happened to mechanics and technicians? All we got these days are computerized goobs that don't have a clue.

Time for the war axe Injun!

Now thats a thread... um, err, well - some of us can relate to!

Hazleton PA. I'd settle for a real truckstop with parking tonight!

 

At a plant in a little bitty town in AL (2 yrs ago I spent Christmas all by myself in this plant)...
Was going to p/up here tomorrow but folks were open when I arrived this evening and loaded me right away. GREAT!! Cause have another p/up tomorrow in Birminghan, AL, delivering in FLorida and then another p/up near Miami and delivering in Greencastle, IN.

 

Ah...,to have an actual plan with one's life,I am,well,jealous.. As for me,I have my 3year old grandaughter sleeping on my right arm,a cat which I think wants to come in,a dog which I think wants to go out,and a son with a wife who are AWOL from their house...And,I have no plan how to get out of this one..

 

Still home. Tranny and clutch back in. Running it down the road burning in the clutch and the #### water pump takes a dump. Think I'll drag this repair job out and stay home for another week.



On a side note........Talked to BW9 today about ships, soft serve ice cream, death, antifreeze, his wife and my girlfriend not in that order but the funny thing is it all tied in with with one another.
