    Congratulations, melo! I hope things go great for you. I'm hoping George will get a job more local before long. I sure miss him being home. Hopefully you'll continue posting on here still.

    I know it has been hard on you also, jungHo. We all have times that we would rather not talk about in the trucking world :yes2557: We make it through on attitude and by being stubborn. I think it is wonderful that you are doing all that you can to support George and help your family along the way. I hope the sale at the flea market is a great success for you!
    I don't know if you and George realize it yet .....but you have already won the battle to become successful as a driving family. You are weathering the problems that come up and moving forward. You are learning from everyday and not giving up. George will be able to move on and take his experience somewhere else and do quite well. As always, you are in my prayers.

    Things are upside down right now in my personal life but will keep you posted.

    In Norcross, Ga. Got here with almost no time left on my 14 and my delivery is due tomorrow at 1600. will take a quick nap then check in. I am parked right next door at the Waffle House. Thanks Pete for the info on this place. Not to worried about getting unloaded today have in 2,200 on the week would like more but very tired right now.

    Congrats Melo hope everything works out for you.

    Hang in there Jungho sometimes this business stinks and sometimes it is awesome. George will be home soon. My wife got used to me being on the road and when I go home she says I mess up her zen just cause I throw my clothes all over the bedroom. She is not to fond of that but usually happy to see me.

    HB are you signing up for that new program? I am going to sign up tomorrow would like a week off every quarter with no payments

    Be safe out there

    Best thing I can say about this beer load, least it wasn't lite beer! !!! Busch 30 packs.

    Had to come down PA28. OMG, I haven't had to shift so much in ages. Was almost wishing for an automatic there, for awhile.

    Jaso, they might take you in early. Birchwood, right? I was just there last week. I'm not going to do the lifestyle lease. With the slightly increased payments you're essentially preparing for that week off, possibly overpaying at that. But because of my current living situation it's not worthwhile for me to go that route. I may opt in on it in the future but right now I will stay with the current program.

    I'm sitting in Jacksonville, FL waiting for a swap driver to show up. Going home early!!!
     
    HometimeQueen, passport220 and jaso37 Thank this.
