SAME BULL DIFFERENT MONTH

     Things have been so uneventful that I haven't really had anything to write about. There still isn't anything interesting to write about, I am just bored stiff. I have been sitting in Coopersburg, PA. since Tuesday evening at 7pm. I have to pick up a load tomorrow, Friday at 1pm. Do the math. I have been doing absolutely nothing for 2 1/2 days. It will take be about 6 hours to get to Wintersville, OH. and then I will be able to sit for another 2 or 3 days.  I think I could do better on unemployment. What you think? I just wanted to say hello and let everyone know that I was still alive. 
     My daughter Becky is coming to town next week for a month and then the end of June we are going on vacation to New Hampshire for a week. Theresa and Mackenzie will be going with us. It will be myself, Debbie, Becky, Wayne, Theresa and Mackenzie all packed into my Dodge Ram Pick-up. It is going to be so crowded. It is going to be great. I am looking forward to it. The total trip will be about 2800 miles. Maybe I should fly. lol. 
     June is going to be a busy month and hopefully I can put it in words for this blog so I will always have memories of this vacation. Well until next time. Have a great evening.

BURNT OUT

     Hello everyone.  It has been a while since I have posted any thoughts but my mind has just been a blank. It has been really slow out here and anything that could go wrong, did go wrong. I have had problems getting miles as freight is slow as usual, and just as my miles start to pick up, my equipment starts giving me problems. First my truck, get that fixed, then my trailer, then my truck again. I just can't seem to get ahead. I must say I have been really bummed out, burnt out and any other word that comes to mind to fit the situation. I am so much looking forward to vacation but wonder if I need to send the family and stay out here and work. These economic times are hard on everyone and I am not looking for a pity party, just for some sound advice. I just don't know what to do anymore. Just keep trudging along, inch by inch, mile after mile. There must be an end to this madness somewhere.
     Enough is enough. I have bored everyone enough with all this crap. Send me your comments and let me know your feelings on the state of affairs in this wonderful country that our government is so set on destroying. Have a good night everyone. It is 3:45 am and was unable to sleep. The old mind going a mile a minute. My love to all my friends and family. God Bless
