    Oh dear. I so firmly believe that am extra hour or two of sleep could only be a good thing.
    I think what it is is the alarm going off instead of getting up when I want to.
    Coffee is sho nuff gonna help!

    Spent more time sitting and waiting than running today.... :biggrin_2552: Woke up... or jumped out of bed at 3:30 am... Started driving at 4:30 am... Arrived 1 hr early at receiver... and they took 3 hrs to unload me... :biggrin_25510: DSP and broker told me I will get detention... :biggrin_25519: Then, rushed to next shipper about 1:30 hrs away but load wasn't ready when I got there.... And I had to wait almost 3 hrs... :biggrin_25510:But the loading took only less than 30 mins...
    Rushed to FJ for scale and fuel with only one hr left, decided to park here and take a shower...
    Parked at the very end corner hoping it will be quiet and safe... Then, a truck parked next to me... and another... And then a lady who I saw walking around parking lot entered one of the trucks next to me... I didn't pay much attention... I was doing my paper log, calling broker, etc... But saw her showing something on her chest to the driver... and then she started waving at drivers and grabbed the CB mic and started chatting with them... I didn't hear cause my CB doesn't work very well all the time... :biggrin_25512: Seems she and the driver had some disagreement and she left his truck...

    I picked up a 612# crate at Halliburton not too far from SDV and took it to SDV.
    Then I was told of a 1727# crate at Ceva across the street from SDV that wouldn't fit in my truck so went and hooked and picked it up and took it to SDV.
    Then Picked up two pallets 2728# at Morgan Systems for Expert Crating.
    Then lunch.
    Then got 3 pallets of Methanol drums at Hazmat Packing for World Trade Houston.
    Then got 1 pallet at SDV for Manchester.
    World Trade went pretty fast. But I was at Manchester from 3:45 to 5:30.
    610 was kind of jacked up but got to the truck stop about 6:20. Dropped and headed home.
    Arrived 7:20.
    Dinner. TV. And sitting on my bed typing this. Mighty Nite y'all.
     
    Rocks Thanks this.

    No shower... :biggrin_25513: About ten folks waiting... :biggrin_25510: Washed myself in the sink... Back in the truck, having my meal... someone knocks on my door... :biggrin_25510: Didn't respond... :biggrin_25512: I wonder if this is the "red zone" in this truck stop... :biggrin_2552:
