Parked Here for the Night

just heated up a nice big piece of egg strata from home while i wait on a door at Trader Joes Stockton
probably be here long enough for lunch too

 

Probably long enough to retire. Unless you go inside and teach them how to count higher than 10. Seeing how they're probably required to wear shoes, no shortcut to 20.

 

Waffle House is one of my guilt pleasures.

 

Mr. Red.... very VERY WISE words you wrote here... You are very right... THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Doctor responded my email. He filled out the Spanish FMLA form... in Portuguese... The co. said they will accept that and if they need, I can translate to English... Will have the doctor fax that to co. And I'll be leaving to Brasil some time next month... Still a lot of things I MUST do and preparations before I leave...
My dad is hanging in there... Talked to him last night... He said will not have any surgery unless he can't take the pain any more... and that he is not feeling much any pain yet... But doctor told me that what dad has inside may rupture at any time...

Now the tractor and I are at Freightliner in PA and the trailer was left at tow co. about 20 miles from here cause it was cheaper this way... However, once repairs here are done, some time later this afternoon, I will have to bobtail to trailer... Weather here is nasty... It snowed some last night... roads are not too bad but traffic was going 45 mph on I-81... It is snowing again and it will snow some more tonight...
I told dsp and broker that if weather is too bad, I'll not bobtail to trailer... will have to wait...
Still gotta deliver this load in NJ.... hopefully sometime tomorrow before they close... Shall see... safety first...

 

It's gonna be nasty up that way. Stay safe

 

It's a great place to get your oil changed if you can't make it to Speedco. I eat there about once a year, same as Krystal. Just long enough to forget the after effects of what starts out as a delicious meal. Two fried eggs on toast, hash browns scattered, covered, smothered, and chunked is my usual poison. Enough cholesterol in that to heat a small town for a week.

 

Unless Glendale, AZ has specific regulations that aren't posted about truck parking I think I have found a nice secret spot in the Phoenix area.

 

Decided to move down to the Avondale Peelot. Packed as always. No loads our of Phoenix right now.

 

TS in Ripon has about 10 parking spots at noon
must be slow freight everywhere
