    I've practically finished preparing everything for my travel... Will make a few phone calls to Brazil tomorrow trying to schedule some appointments in advance... Now that Carnaval there is officially over, I hope folks have gone back to work... but some will be back only next week...
    I'm getting tired of staying here... But trying to rest as much as possible...
    Sent a msg to one of my dispatchers today...
    I MISS MY HOME ALREADY... :biggrin_2557:
    THE TRUCK...


    ​
    She told me not to worry... they will be there when I come back...

    Oohh... have you tried ginseng root? Very strong stuff... And Guarana from Brasil... even stronger... :smt119 I don't suggest Guarana for those having heart conditions though... it may give them tachycardia...:biggrin_25521:

    Now... if I need to sleep for... let's say 5 or so hrs and I can't, I take a few milligrams of Melatonin... it puts me to sleep in a few mins... And when I wake up I drink black tea... it works well... :yes2557:

    Flying J in Knoxville. Judging by the speeds some of the four wheelers were driving today it's obvious they think they can still slip on the ice even when the roads are completely dry :biggrin_25517:

    Rocks, my wife and I take Melatonin when trying to sleep in a moving truck. Works great. I'll have to try the black tea. Thanks for the tip.

    Which way did you come from FatDaddy? 81 down through Va was fun to say the least. Started snowing bout Raphine and finally stopped about Greeneville Tn. Sittin in Athens Tn for a break. Roads haven't been too bad today, but started getting s##### the further south I got. So made an executive decision and called it a night. Y'all keep er tween the ditches!
