    Lol 41.25 hrs so far this week. $4142.50 wow that's a weird numerical coincidence. Mileage is 13/1400 range. I love those short little jaunts that pay :) taking my lady out to a nice Italian place for dinner because she's feeling overworked at the hospital. What a life :)

    both of my wishes came true ! I got a partial (top deck) load to Eerie, PA, I can make it work, but doesn't load til Monday so plenty of time to get a few things caught up and goof off a little too.

    Dang it man that more than 100 an hr sure your not a repair shop? Good to hear someones getting the good stuff :)

    Jasper Ind could drive home its only an 1-1.5 hrs home but figured I would just stay save fuel and get this off then go home instead. Walked to rural king got a few new pants and some locks and hinges to work on headache rack some more this weekend. Got to order the aluminum sheets to bulid my new brick racks hate the ones I have now going to make some two piece racks that will double as normal long edge protectors.

    That's it ! Build that capital. That's what will give you the independence and power to do what you want when you want. Some people get into business because they want things. You can have all the things you want if you are smart, hard-working, and patient. Get them too soon and you lose all your power. Tighten the belt, work hard, build that capital. You should talk to Cluck, he's helped me figure some things out. I'd be glad to chat sometime too, especially if I'm driving.

    Parked at an elevator in Elgin MN for the night. Kick one stop here and another a few miles north. Head home after that load up my tractor and spend the weekend drinking beer, eating, tractor pulling and looking at old stuff. About as good as it gets for me.

    Unloaded my concrete panels early this morning and went to get a few things fixed on the truck. I had my steers balanced last week and one of them took 10oz of weights. The tire is a month old and everything has been replaced. So I figured maybe the rim was bad. Bought a new one and it's not that. So I'm headed back to the TA where I got them from in the morning and they are going to warranty/replace it for me. Hopefully that is what's been causing the "bounce" that I've been feeling in the truck.

    Other than that, I'm home for the weekend again. Loading another radioactive load Monday to Pittsburgh and got a fiberglass tank coming right back home.

    I had the powder balance stuff put in my steers. First time for me and I was skeptical, but I'm a believer now. took about 200 miles to settle in but definitely working now, we'll see how it pans out in the long run.
