I did mention we do not have TV and that did not seem to be a problem. They are still trying to figure out if there is an interesting story in trucking without over dramatizing anything. As Expediters we as far as I am concerned have it all! We are able to have a life while still seeing the...

Well Moot I wish we would have been home it would have been nice to finally meet you something we have been wanting to happen for a long time. One of these days... Well I ordered my other cup and it will be here before we head back out on the road before the first of the year.

We run mostly dual driver loads and a leisurely walk inside is a luxury. When we stop for a break it is usually a walk around the truck so as not to have to wake up each other. Starting the generator to make another cup of coffee also is something I do not like to do as that will wake Bob up...

Layout what does she enter into the spreadsheet?

I print out the months reconciliation sheet at the end of each month. The list of transactions is only available for a certain amount of days or it is a certain amount of transactions. The sheet is available on the 1st of every month. The reconciliation sheet is found after you log in under...

What I have noticed is not the dribble affect but that a small particle of the liquid will pop or splash up onto my cheek or my glasses when I let the cup close. Once I realized this was happening I do not close the cup till it is more in an upright position and the problem is solved. I know...

Ask the owner how the truck is set up and then plan accordingly. As with everything else in life some things work great for some people and the same thing does not work for someone else. I am like Cheri I use the rice cooker for everything and took my electric skillet back home and I have...

Re: 2013: What place did you this year visit that was amazing? Met up with another truck driving couple in Las Vegas and went to see The Beatles Love, Cirque du Soleil show. Had a fun evening and was once again reminded of how small the United States is to truck drivers. Marked off my bucket...

Nuwave Oven I have been hearing more drivers talking about using this oven and I wondered if anyone can tell me more about it? I hate the idea of spending money on a Nuwave without a few more reviews. The description looks very interesting and it does cook fast and it appears faster then...

We have been anything but slow while heading into December which is why we choose to stay out over Thanksgiving. Would we prefer a home cooked meal in a families kitchen? YES but we know that we will make up for it over Christmas and we will end the year with a strong finish hauling freight...
