109 days......Till Santa arrives....:)

Using your words "... What's your point?"

You dressing up to play him in the Bison Mall?

Or have your Santa suit on while plowing ?

Wow i have missed a lot LOL. Been awhile since i have been on EO. Anyway a short catch up. Most of you know our truck has been causing us major problems this year. lots of repairs. well about 6 weeks ago we sent it in for a long list finally got EVERYTHING working... 2 weeks later someone hit us flipping our truck 2 times in air and we landed on the shoulder of the other side of the interstate... Thank God we were mostly OK sprains , cuts and bruises mostly. Great news both pets made it without a scratch. truck is totaled. So since 8/12 we have been recovering and looking for another truck (not a lot of luck) We have a truck that we might get but looks like we will be going to work for an owner for awhile. will know more next week. Hope something gets going soon we have only had about 45 days in service this year... Hope this is the beginning of a new and better road.

And we are all a big family here. What other company several times after a accident are people going to call just to see how you are doing? and when you call in 1st thing out of their mouth is how are you two... No company i have worked for would care this much.

Debbie sorry to hear about your kitty. If we lost out cat Houdini (14 yrs old) I know my wife would be a wreck for awhile.

in short if you don't want to sit for 8+ days here is a thought don't go to texas... like others have said take the turn downs and stay in the freight lanes. Kurt in our sprinter is staying as close to the yard as he can.

Thats all i have right now LOL if you want to see pics of the truck go to my FB page https://www.facebook.com/media/set/...637.1073741840.1427121570&type=1&l=52205f6c37

God Bless you all!

I'm glad you both are ok. I had heard some of the details. I'm glad your furbabies are well. I feel your pain about your truck. And thank you, I can't describe to you the emptiness that I feel sitting here in my truck without Frenchie. And now, instead of talking to her, I look like a crazy person talking to myself. :confused:

But, since you are not a moderator, or have any kind of authority, anything you say to me has no bearing on what I will or will not say. Just sayin...

Only a fool rejects what he hears because he doesn't care for the speaker - but any of the moderators will say exactly the same: keep the replies to what was posted, [and the insults to private msgs], and leave personal history out of it.
Act like an adult, and the moderators don't need to say anything - which is how most of us prefer it. ;)

Yes that Cadillac took us out. she spun out and hit our drive axle which made us lose traction. she then went under the drive we ramped her car which made us flip.

Hey, keep this mind this winter...

As a trucker stops at a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you're losing some of your load."
The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street. When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again. She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"
Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the street. At the third red light, the same thing happens again. All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck door. The trucker lowers the window. Again she says "Hi, my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"
When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next light. When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde's car. He knocks on her window, and as she lowers it, he says "Hi, my name is Kevin, it's Winter in Michigan and I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!"
