    Don't you feel just silly. Hauling empty boxes. It just amazes sometimes the things a trucker has to haul for a supplier needs. But the need them and you haul them from one state to another. Silly as it sounds that is the way things are now.

    Dedwings? That was decades ago. 24 straight playoff appearances. 6 finals series and 4 cups in that time. (Oh and a big brawl where D Mac beat up your turtle player Lemieux, then gets the game winning goal. Gordy Howe hat trick! )
    But then, we had the perfect human ( lidstrom ) the captain (Stevie Y) and the Russian 5. And the secret weapon of Scotty Bowman.

    My short load is being complimented with a run down to Alabama. That should help.

    This was Intrastate . Both stops in Michigan to get me closer to where I get iron to Alabama. More paid miles this was.

    My toe is starting to hurt in my left foot. (Big toe)
    I can still walk. It's not so bad as I can't sleep yet.
    I have 2 gout pills left. (Doc won't refill until the case of my kidney under functioning is solved)
    Question is; do I take them now to try to eliminate it, or do I save them, so if it gets bad I can make it "tolerable"?

    When I feel my toe or heel start to hurt like the gout is coming on I take a couple gout pills and it usually goes away.

    Only having two pills left would make things difficult. I keep a bottle of ibuprofen in here just in case and I take several of them to help also.

    I hope you get through this because it is not fun.

    I would email you some of my gout medicine but can't figure out how to do that yet. LOL

    Upon further review, I have 4 left. I think I'll be ok. I took 1 tonight.
    Tomorrow I'll go crazy on buying a few quarts of tart cherry juice to flush the crystals out of my joints.

    Well I took 1 pill and the pain was tolerable to where I slept well enough. I'll pop another this morning and that should take care of it. Hope I get to the bottom of the whole kidney thing.
    I start infusion next Friday.

    I took pill 2 this morning. I'm unloading now, then head to Bruce MS for run up to Holland.
