Snow is really melting now..I could actually see the ground under the clothesline and a lot more brown everywhere. But the sky is overcast..might get some rain tonight according to the weather man.

Well with only the third load of the month completed, I would say that's a wrap for the month.. No way to salvage it now no matter what happens.
Nothing left to do now but sign up for food stamps.
Well into day 2 of sitting @ the Walmart and their isn't a penny in the parking lot to be found.

Good morning from Lincoln al. Got the morning wake up call from dispatch with a load going to Mishawaka in. Don't you just love it when that happens.

Princeton Indiana.. Yeah yeah my fault..
My App for this site isn't working for the last 4days or so and totally missed the fact this was a holiday weekend, other wise I propely would have turned it down. I'm sure there isn't a prayer in h*** of getting out of here. I'm sure the office won't be working until Tuesday.
Only if they get a direct call, I figure Tuesday before my phone rings

I thought it was only a white collar holiday? schools, banks. PO and Guberment workers and some UAW locals...
Had a nice weekend run down to Laredo. Ran cruse control all the way through Austin! Break time till off load in the morning.

I don't believe my drought has anything to do with holidays.Last week, I just traced as much as I could thru my log book and Calender's and my own post it notes. My troubles started back in Oct of 2015 when my Son had his accident, and I was unable to work, add on top of that, the fact my house had to be rebuilt to bring him home, there was a lot of times I couldn't work. No doubt in my mind this created post it notes on the dispatchers desk. Then when we lost him on fathers day of 2016 things really took a downward turn after having several heated phone calls from dispatch as to why I wasn't avaible after the fourth day of his passing. First conversion was on the fourth day and he wasn't even in the ground yet. (I'm still waiting to see that dispatcher away from her desk.) I admit it took awhile staying home with my wife as she was a basket case and still has trouble dealing with it to this day.

Sorry to hear/see that Slo-Ride. Hopefully it will get easier as time goes on. That's why I'm Thankful and Great full that I'm with Load One. They would never do that.
