    I have learned one thing... Don't use/pay for the internet sevice at the TA truck stops... it is the speed of dial up. Over 5 hours to watch half of a 2 hour movie...

    Well we are not both on the truck... well for right now that is. We had a load going to SLC then we would start our loop again back east... HOWEVER we got a call re: Momma and had to head home - again - sigh... We got to Reno bright and early Saturday morning, load didn't deliver until Monday morning... headed over anyway - you know, give sob story might be able to deliver early?? Well they aren't even open - GRRR! So Gary sits on the load and I jump on a bus. Now Monday morning - it has snowed over I-80 and there is a wreck in Verdi... its going to be a long day for both of us!! We are seriously hoping this stuff w/Momma doesn't take TOO long... we can't afford this down time! At least I got some leg work started though :)

    Still stuck on home time... what a way to think of it... stuck, but that's what's happening. Found a place for Momma, now to get the paperwork/insurance stuff worked out... then to get back on the road and RUN!! #### this sitting still sucks!!

    I hope so too!!

    There is so much 'other' stuff happening at home as well... Family drama! We might have to stick closer to home soon. ARG!! So frustrating! (and heart breaking)

    Well... we got us a place for Mom, we got her paperwork started. I got her taxes done and ours too.....
    I really feel like I got something done this time being at home....
    Now we need to get on the road and make up some of the $$ it has cost us being at home.

    You've been doing a great job juggling some difficult issues. At least you can have a little peace of mind that your Mom is being looked after.

    Best wishes for you both.
