What did you do with the old truck anyway?

I still have it. It's a lawn ornament. I was happy to hear truck production will still be a struggle for the future. So maybe I can get some money for it. But it's a 14, less than 600 k miles. I don't know how valuable it is. I know truck production can change in a few months.

Currently in Florence Al. Wife’s been in the Hospital here since Saturday morning. Picked up 1/2 Load here on Friday, got a room, and Shopped for a good hospital. The other half of the Load is in SC, 600 miles away. Then 740 miles home. Been a rough week dealing with unreasonable Incompetent Brokers. Wife’s been getting attacks every 5-6 hrs. since Wednesday night. Reluctant to go to the Emergency room. Luckily this Brokers been great about everything. I gave them the option to cancel. Had them on the phone while my Wife was having an attack as I was backing into the dock. She couldn’t catch her breath. Only enough to say, “ Get the Load!! “ Lol. It was pretty crazy. Diagnosis, Lung Embolisms. She’s stabilizing, still in pain and barely able to move around. They have her on a blood thinner IV. They’ve been drawing blood every 6 hrs. to get the dosage right. Then they’ll switch to a pill form. Be leaving today or tomorrow. It’s going to be a rough trip home. The whole weeks been upside down. Started with a plan to work a week, and go home to be by a friends side while they pull the plug. He suddenly got worse, and they had to do it sooner. Luckily We made it to the funeral. Left out the next day the 12th. It’s been like pulling teeth since. Between the Brokers attitudes, terrible rates, and overall BS involved. Makes me wonder like @Judge says. “Why do We put up with it.” I’m about done myself. Going to be very picky who I deal and what Loads I book from now on. Very aggravating to be questioned, second guessed, and treated like an idiot, by others that have much less experience, and probably half my age. So it goes. Thanks for asking. Ask a question, get an answer. Lol. Be safe everyone. I know you all can relate to the frustration. It’s humbling to know that others care.

Yep, The Cowboys have a $40,000,000.00 a year franchise quarterback, a kicker that has been on the team 5 years with the Yips AND a Hall of Fame general manager that’s been inducted into the HOF for being the most greatest GM ever and has the GM job for life (because he the owner) even though they never been past the division playoffs in 28 years. yes, how bout them cowboys.

The zebras appear to be launching an operation from The NMDOT designed and approved Death Zone all the way to Amarillo ( by morning ).

Nothing good shall come from this.

Drought continues at okiedokie's house.

Overcast morning fog at Casa Del OM, clearing and sunny.

I can't seem to find a zebra map.....

The NWS in OH-HI-OH seems to favor green blobs chasing red blobs eastward, and sometimes the red blobs lap the green blobs.

When I got to work, the Emergency Alert System alertly started blaring from the two radios in the shop.

Apparently, the Greater Dayton Metropolitan Area is under a red blob warning for Tuesday night into Wednesday morning for 4-7 inches of "heavy, wet snow", freezing tain, high winds, and general weather related mayhem......

Good thing I don't drink milk, and I already have plenty of bread. I can go straight home tonight after work.
