    Now that I think about it, it’s really not fair that you go home. You should count Friday-Monday as home time since you technically saw your home.

    The day starts just after midnight, so if you actually take until, like 10:30 am to get to the house, well, that is your loss of time. Had you better trip planned, you would have the extra time.

    I just don't think it's fair that you have to take care of personal stuff while you're on hometime.

    Look Dave... here it is... did you get into trucking to be your own man? Or was it to be a whining little school girl? A real trucker is always at home no matter where he is, or who he is with. Now man up will ya!!!

    Zero hometime for Dave,
    I just looked at your 10 day forecast and it'll be in the upper 90's all week. And it's April!!

    I think the felines have too much influence in your situation.
