Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

I'm sitting at the rest area just east of Orlando. My first drop is 4am 3 miles from here. Did I say it's still raining? Unreal. I'll have to write up these windshield wipers when I get back next week. The only time they've been off since I left the house Monday was when I shut the truck off to fuel.

 

I'm home. Woke up at 3:30am and drove the 3 miles to my first drop. Got that off and was on my way to the second one at 4:45. I got to my last drop and had to fight like hell to get backed in to this not made for trucks little Boars Head distributor. I finally had to back out of this storage place, turn around in the street then back in on my blind side. Trust me, even I have days that I say F'it and want to take out a few cars, a corner of a building, and maybe some dummy standing in just the wrong place where I had to get out twice to tell him to at least move so I can see him in my mirror. But, I regrouped and did what is expected of me, to deliver my load safely and on time. But believe me, I came close at 6am this morning to throwing it right out the window.

I got home at noon and went with my wife to put our cat down. We both agree along with the vet that it was time. She gave us 20 years of companionship, and was a huge part of our home.
God Bless you Midnight.

 

Onto a truck question. These Volvo's that we drive here at Abilene has that dining room setup that you can use as a bed or dining table. For me it's strictly a bed, with those God forsaken disgustingly uncomfortable cushions that double as a mattress. I'm in the market for a new mattress, something on the lines of a memory foam. Do any of you have something that you use that you can recommend? My back can't take much more of sleeping on this bed of rocks.

 

Thank you. Now if I can stand up straight and have my wife drive me to Walmart I'll get one.
