What a weird week, mid October I hoped would be rocking. My third sitting spot since Sunday and been bumped in each one of them. Talked with six van drivers and not one moving but we all know this job come afternoon it could go crazy besides the inside of my van has gotten a good cleaning.

Good luck to all!

Been a little slow restarting after the weekend and the holiday up nort. Trips have been kinda short also but that's the way of expediting sometimes.

I have had three offers since I started moving last night said yes to two but no luck on those. Did just say no to one, way to many dh miles already this week and it was one I would have had to dh out. Their trying that's all we can ask.

Really strange. Was super busy then last 7 or 8 days have slowed down quite a bit. I am not sure if the government shut down is starting to have some economic effect or what is going on but it is odd.

Alert.... I want to report a chef Dennis sighting. Well his van at least but I think he might just be in there, unless its a decoy of some sort.

Just like expediting...busy as heck, then some time to recharge the batteries. The loads will come back...in the meantime we just swing at every offer that comes to us and keep reaching for the fence.

No worries...we know it is being worked on. My only problem is that my lovely wife tends to do her online shopping when we are parked! :eek:

If you'd like me to, I could empty move to where you are at and bump you!!!!...lol...Heck, we could all just drive around and bump each other!!....Wait..this sounds too weird....lol...Sitting does that to me...

I did, however, manage to completely organize the nut and bolt and washer and butt connector collection into separate compartments now....lol...

Is it me, or is Aunt Bea starting to look hot???......
