<p>[QUOTE="Six9GS, post: 9474879, member: 102286"]1st day out. Drove 443 miles. We are parked at a Truck Stop about 20 miles from our delivery destination in the morning. Supposed to deliver in the morning and then pick up a load headed to Georgia. Overall good day. But (of course there has to be a but), as soon we get stopped, he goes to his bunk and goes to sleep. We haven't talked about any rules of his truck, I haven't been able to do any sprt of settling in. We just threw my duffle bag on the top bunk and we left. So, I'm having to rummage around in my duffle bag, in the dark, trying to find my shorts and stuff and now I to try and figure out how to sleep in a bunk that is about 2 feet shorter than it is already supposed to be because I have no idea where I can put my duffle bag or anything else. On top of this being my first night ever sleeping in a truck (it's running to keep the air going), and all that entails that is markedly different than 'normal' bedroom sleep. On top of it I'm jazzed about what I did today and have energy.</p><p>Anyway, I don't mean it to sound like I'm complaining. I do worry I won't get good and adequate sleep tonight. I also know that in time I'll sort through and adapt. Roght now I'm just wishing I didn't have to share my bunk with my duffle bag so I'd have enough room that my legs weren't cramped up.</p><p>Good Night!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
