Once our girls started school I went to work at our local courthouse and I started using the phrase.   As the girls aged and I continued my 9 - 5 job I used TGIF and hump day with meaning as the weekend meant a time to enjoy many events.

 

Both girls were involved in school activities and had many 4-H projects with Bob and I the 4-H community leaders.   We hit the ground at a run on Friday evening and we stayed at a fast pace until Sunday night enjoying every minute of our time.

 

Then the girls graduated high school and took off for college and we left home to see the country in a truck.   What a change in our thinking immediately; TGIF or hump day had no meaning.   The sayings were even further driven from our minds once we became owner operators and staying out for months at a time.

 

Most of the time we do not know what day it is only worrying about the actual date for our paperwork.   We slip from one day to the next looking forward to getting up and seeing another part of the country.  

 

Time slips by even faster with no worries about what day of the week it is or constantly wishing it were Friday and dreading Mondays.   Trucking has its own sets of problems and as winter nears I am not looking forward to driving on snow and ice.   Those thoughts do not weigh heavy on my mind, as I know we are never stuck in an area of the country.

 

We enjoy every day we are on the road and when we go home we enjoy every day there.   So now the saying for us is TGI TODAY!
