    Sean....scheduled to be there Tuesday night hoping to make it by Wednesday...LOL....will give you a call/text when I get there....I'm easy to find....the redhead sitting out on the smoking bench.....just ask Craig.....LOL

    Am having a wonderful start to my day....get to delivery just to discover that the load was cancelled last week when it wasn't del on the 18th.....notified FM.....get message back from someone saying basically "Huh??? It's on the drop yard."

    So now I'm sitting at a Walmart waiting to hear what to do with this load.

    My miles run anywhere from 1500 to 3000, depending on a lot of different factors. This last 5 weeks out I sat on a load at least twice, maybe 3 times, for a 34 hr reset on the weekends. Today is a very bad day.....in 8 hrs I've gone 63 miles......been sitting and waiting for a decision on this load for 6 hrs now.

    Cherish your home time, Lee!!!! You've earned it.

    Well, my crazy day has ended right back where I started out with this load......was told to take it back to the drop yard in E. St. Louis...LOL Got it dropped, picked up an mt, crept across to the Pilot and found a spot.

    Tomorrow I pick up about 100 miles south and then head for Menomonie, WI to the Walmart......have until midnight Monday but will get it there sometime on Sunday.

    we got home lastnite, looks like we will be home for about a week or so.

    nice thing about being an o/o we get home anytime we want and stay as long as we want, no more of that 1 day for 1 week (we never did fallow that anyway)
