    My deepest condolences. Having lost my mom just last October (not with Alzheimer’s but kidney failure after a ten-month journey), the simultaneous sting of loss and relief from circumstances creates a mental minefield for some. You’ll indeed be in my prayers.

    Sorry to hear that. Hopefully it brings you some peace to know she’s no longer suffering. Condolences

    Sorry to hear about your loss. At least you know she is in a better place now.

    ExtremeUnction,

    By just reading your post about your loss of your Mother your character stands strong. It takes time to heal the pain of losing someone as dear as a parent but at least you know she is not suffering anymore. Stay strong and remember that your "second family" here is supporting you. Bless you and your family in this hard time. Thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Well, once again I am truly grateful for all the kind words. A burden shared is a burden lessened.

    I feel like I gotta give y'all permission to talk about trucking again, though, so have at it.

    Time to head out. Just waiting on the call from the mothership telling me which direction to go. Truck is overdue for a service, need new steer tires, and have to have that new trailer tire they put on my drives last month replaced when I picked up a piece of metal in Miami.

    @ExtremeUnction, I hope you’re doing well in this trying time. Thinking of you brother.

    Yeah man, I'm doing groovy. HQ couldn't find me anything from Memphis to Shreveport (or even anything close by), so they're just letting me deadhead down there and eating the miles. Awful nice of them, I thought.
