    A five day. Down by Hobby for a job box at 350# going to Ceva. At this point I already knew about an 11am pick up at Southwest Airlines going to a Community center. While stopped at Walgreens for cough drops he called and mentioned a 30 something by 20 something 125# crate. And a pick up of 4 pails of paint. Went to Falcon Crest Aviation supply for two stacked and strapped crates with G550-650 nose wheels. Then got 7 laptops at SW Airlines. Then out i-10 east to Cedar lane turn around to get the paint. Then to McCarty to deliver the paint. Then went to the Community center and dropped the laptops. On the way to Ceva to drop the wheels he sent pick up on Atascocita Rd. and deliver to Oceanex. I asked if I could do that and leave Ceva for last. He said yes. From Humble to Oceanex took 35 minutes at 3:15ish. At 3:30 it took until 5pm to get to Ceva. When I was at Ceva moving the crate to the back I saw they go to Austin. Had I known that earlier I would have lobbied to take them myself!

    Got pretty much a useless check. The second day of Fireworks truck will be on the next check. Got a pallet 140# at CE Shepherd and took it to Equistar. Waiting until 1pm to get a 500# pallet at Titan Chemical. Then going to get something at Radiomedix going to Morris Export Packing. Because it has a 4pm cutoff I will deliver it. Then pick up a 15# carton up near IAH and take that and what I get here to Oceanex.
