Taking another swing at it

MRI came back clean. Doc is sure it's acid reflux or food poisoning . Either way, she is well and feels fine.

 

I don't get it. I read these posts that say " I have an awesome job, make good cash and am home all the time...I'm going to L/P for big money! "
The only two reasons I am doing this is A ) I will get a truck of my own.
B) I live so far away from regular freight lanes, I couldn't get home on a regular basis elsewhere.

I look at the news and shake my head. Maybe George Carlin was right, this country is circling the drain. We had a good run, but it's falling apart. I'm not getting into political discussions on here . I'm just concerned for what my kids will inherit.

 

I guess I'm confused by a choice to give up what many may see as a "perfect job" for the risks of an LP...but then again, I technically had one and I jumped in , maybe I'm just tired. Too many things going on at once.
All I know , is there was a music festival in Germany call Wacken (pronounce the W as a V) a couple of weeks ago , and there was a set played by Ronnie James Dio .
He died of cancer 6 yrs ago .
They had a hologram of him on stage . Real band playing behind him. When it was dark, he seemed real , when the backlights lit up , he looked like a ghost.
Technology is amazing , and it gave me joy to see a video of one of my favorite singers "live" again .

 

Load back to Mi was cancelled. So I'm sitting at the Rogers TA til 5am to snag my empty trailer from target. Then we will see

 

If not, they'll pay me to DH to Iowa for dog food

 

So, I've been here since yesterday, and have been waiting to get an empty trailer.
This is the disadvantage to dropping loaded trailers. When a customer has72 hrs to unload, there is a line for empty trailers.

 

Under way with a load of recycling plastic headed to GA. Yay me.
