    Yeah buddy keep a diary of it all, there's like hundreds of posts in here already by lots of new drivers starting out perhaps in another 35 years time we'd love to read your auto - biography.

    Put some blocks on the soles of your shoes I guess ;)

    In all honesty prob much better for you since a sleeper ain’t exactly a large living space. And you won’t hit your head when you stand up.

    Yea I was surprised. My last doc visit maybe 6 months ago it was 130/90. Quit smoking a month ago and taking long daily walks. Quit soda too. Being fat sucks and trying to change sucks worse!

Very casual atmosphere. Other students easy to get along with. There are 6 of us and two teachers. Got a few shots of the trucks we will be learning on.

    Teacher A (today’s) has 30 years OTR and currently owns and operates a small fleet of five trucks. Not a great orator, horrible reading comprehension, buckets of truck knowledge.

    Taking my permit test tomorrow. Really glad I bought my book and studied the past couple weeks. It really set me ahead.
