Best week in a LONG time...

themagicoen · Mar 31, 2006

Were are a team w/ panther II - Just finished up a 4500 Mile week (Thursday-Wensday). This week was on track to meet that - 1100 Thursday/Friday but now were stuck in Denver and as the min's tick by I know that if I don't having nothing by 6pm MST, it's going to be Monday. I posted that in the layover fourm too. Now if we could get a good 1400-1700 mile run for the weekend, another good one monday, we could have a just as good week.

I'm glad someone has had good weeks. My Jan was GREAT. Feb was OK. March sucked big time. I might have made expenses for the month. Being a Newbee, I'm not sure about this, but don't you have to be in service to get miles? My wife's mother was in the hospital for two weeks, and then she died. That was bad enough on my wife, then she had to meet with her A hole brothers about the will and trust. That about sent her over the edge. I had to take another week off to make sure my wife was OK. She mentioned chest pains for two days after meeting with her brothers. She's OK now. I feel secure enough to go back on the road come Monday. :+ :+

2800 last week (i know, rare thing) and then 400 this week. Could've been more, but I hate Canada runs.

oldprof, I'm sorry to hear about your family's loss. I'm sure you will do ok in the long run. You've exhibited too much common sense and character in your time here at EO to not succeed if that's what you want. Good luck to you and condolences to your wife.

Thanks to all. My wife is feeling much better. On advise of several people, my will will communicate with her brothers thru an attorney. :+ :+

This must be the absolute worsttttttttttt first quarter in my experience. Still, I've had some good weeks and at the end of the month it's not as bad as I thought it would be. I moved from a "D" to a Sprinter because my arthritic knees were bothering me so it's hard to judge when to stay and when to play. More experience in the new size truck should help some but it's been real slow. Sorry to hear about your problems Prof. My wife had to do the same for her mother and it was a nightmare. You can choose your friends but you can't choose your relatives.
