    HTQ these are 3 pound bags. And there are a few bags in each case. It is the ones they sell in Big Lots for $8 or thats what the bag reads. Shoot she will be lucky if I have any when I get home. It all depends on how nice she is with the bank account
     
    HometimeQueen Thanks this.

    [Quote/:Hometime] jungHo, are you alright? How is your mom? You have been pretty quiet. I am proud of you and George.....you are doing so well. It is a hard adjustment in lifestyle. Everything ok?[/QUOTE]


    I'm cooling off right now. Been doing housework! Otherwise, I am ok. Mom is the same: tired. Today is my dad's 90th birthday. She's hoping to go with me to see him this afternoon, so she's resting up (which is really the norm, resting).

    My youngest brother is staying with Mom tomorrow night, so I can go to VA to see my daughters, their husbands (except for the youngest as she isn't married just yet), and my grandkids. All of my daughters and grandkids will be there...nice! Just going tomorrow and returning Sunday afternoon. Still, I am looking forward to it!

    Oh my, jaso! How nice she is with the bank account?! That's a loaded one! I figured you were going to sa, "It depends on how much is left, when I get home!" Of course, you did say you are diabetic, so that should be very little. Anyway, wow, good luck with all of the above! 3 lb bags! That's a lot of sugar!

    be safe all
     
    jaso36 Thanks this.

    I'm sitting in Loveland twiddling my thumbs because my preplan was pulled. DM2 is getting with the planners to get me a load. Not too thrilled to have to get another DM in sync with how my truck is run. T___T

    For those who are not yet aware, the dispatch system has apparently been restructured. Day and night both. Dispatchers work in pairs. 7 days on, 7 days off. 12 hour shifts. So with this new system I'm dealing with my DMS partner until she gets back Tuesday.

    IBC Amarillo. Yuck. Waited more than 24 hours at the J. Came up here to IBC and been here four more hours. Got my washout and sitting in the bobtail lot now. Only 2102 miles this last pay period. And no hometime to blame it on. I guess the new dispatch system has kinks to work on and work out. Been doing more sitting this week than I would like. Could the honeymoon be over? We shall see. Too soon to jump conclusions. Will be forced to drive nights to get this load there. Guess there is a price to pay for this load of 1868 miles. Back to laying down. Deuces.

    Just got back, Mom and I, from visiting my dad. He thought Mom was his mom instead of his wife. We didn't stay very long, but at least we saw him on his birthday. Mom hadn't seen him for a couple of months and a little over ago, because of her poor health. Now she's resting.
     
    HometimeQueen Thanks this.

    I was just kidding about my wife, she is my world and I would do anything for her. One case is about 24lbs and that is too much for us. I have sampled about 2 pieces but afraid anymore would hurt me. If I am going to be crossing paths with any of you just let me know. I still have 2 cases left to give away. I am in Robinson, Tx. on my way to the yard in Rockwall then onto Marietta, Ok. to dollar tree from there I have no idea. I should be home the 31st so I can load the truck up with my stuff but that will only be for 10-12 hrs then back on the road. I am going to be leaving here in about an hour trying to avoid rush hour traffic in Dallas.

    Be safe out there
