    Sup Truckerland. Looks like I have a few more of these posts in me. I'm in Texarkana on the Arkansas side. Delivering to Cherokee whenever I decide to get moving. It's an open window, and I'm running on recaps. I met some of the coolest drivers I've ever met tonight. I may be losing a family, but apparently I'm already part of another without even knowing it. This was an amazing conversation. Disclosing details would be disrespectful to this thread. I still hate that I feel a separation coming, but I have less of a feeling that I'm going in blind. I'm not sure what's coming, but I feel at least a weak bond with other O/Os. Tonight was amazing. I hope y'all are doing well. It's likely that I'll be in Cartersville for a few days before I leave. Gimme a heads up if any of y'all can get together. I'll know more tomorrow when I get my next load. Stay safe. Watch your back, check your pins. I'm hoping I'll get to see some of you while I'm roosting in Cartersville. By the way, I won't be at the terminal. I'll be at a hotel that's close. I'd love to see familiar faces, and meet some new ones.

    Took my permit test today. Did not go well
    Which is not a good feeling think it you will do good.
    The wording completely messed me up.
    Like the looking ahead I remembered and the study question asked how many seconds 12-15
    The actual test asked how many blocks.
    Come home look in book small picture that has 12-15 seconds is about one block.
    What messes me up now is the practice questions at the end of each section are worthless.
    I answered all of the right at home.
    None not even remotely close was on test.
    It went very badly today.
    Not sure if I should go tomorrow and try or regroup and try Wednesday.
    My class starts April 30th I need this in before.
    Dam BMV and the wording

    Yep, Atl Bonded in Ackworth.
    I asked William for the afternoon off, Wally World run, SS&S, Spring cleaning on interior of truck.
    William’s words, “of course you can have the afternoon off. Instead of dropping at Cville, go ahead and deliver to Ackworth in the morning. Send in your ready call then. Working on your pre-plan”.
    So I get to Cville just after lunch today. About 1400hrs the Qualcomm goes “blip blip”. 2 of ‘em. Hmmm, I smell pre-plan. Preload in Dalton in the morning. Deliver Shelby as your hours allow. Can’t say it here but F yeah.
    Shootin’ for runnin’ my first 700 Sunday.

    This has been, and continues to be a killer week.
