    Woke up this morning to the wonderful smell of freshly baked banana nut bread.

    My wife is something else.

    All I have to do is get up and go to work most days, pay the bills and treat her nicely. Who would've of imagined that's all it takes ;-)

    There is still o lot of freight for us to cover. I went to a random WM in NE and it was still poorly stacked. The same goes for other retailers. These rates should keep up for another few months. Unless they decide for another lock down.

    Good Morning. Sir.
    Being in your 60s you should work less and spend more time with your grandkids.
    Buy an RV too...
    I look forward to be in my 60s.
    The hell with the trucks and freight waves.
    I can't even try to smoke pot yet. Even though it is legal. Too young to retire...too old to work as hard.

    One day, after I am done with this. I'll by myself an ounce of marijuana and will inhale it...and will talk my wife into it too. One day...mayb 10 - 15 years from now.

    I'll also go hunting and open sea fishing...
    That's on my Bucket list.
    Ha ha ha.

    So I go to back into my assigned dock this morning and this fellow is so crooked, his tractor passenger side is so close into my lane there's literally only a couple of inches to spare between my driver's side mirror and his passenger side mirror LOL.

    When I asked why he was crooked seeing he had a lot of room to straighten out before he went into the hole, he just shrugged his shoulders and in broken English mumbled something.

    No RV. Did that years ago. Wife hates traveling and I've seen more sites than you can imagine over these past 10 plus years.

    Checking in. Enjoying a couple good audiobooks lately and watching The Last Dance every night in the truck. I take a break from forums and most everything internet on occasion.
    Killin' it on my lanes. I'm afraid to stop but I have honestly only been working about 4 days a week. Running hard those 4 days.

    So......your second question. See above.
