This last week has been hell...went down seriously sick last weekend and went to dr...got all sorts of pills and shots and took Monday off as well...dispatch had a glitch in communication and booked me a load... no one else to take it, so I went up to Detroit area sick as a dog. Got it delivered on time and then dispatch sent me to the truck stop for the rest of Weds...reloaded Thurs and limped it to KC and now am home with even more pills waiting on a major snow storm to show up...don't have to leave until Sunday tho...so hopefully I will be better and the snow will be gone.
It is not fun to run when you are sick!
The only stupid question is the one you do not ask...

Monday was sick day , tuesday ran to washington , 3 loads , got back late due to a new tire blow out . Belt came clear thru the tire , would have run with it had it been an outside drive , but it was the inside drive and the blown out part was right against the frame . This could possibly have wrapped around the axle (seen it a couple times before) or torn my airlines off . *rolls eyes* took an hour to get it done from the phone call til it was on the truck . Wednesday not too bad , got in around five . Thursday , real adventure . Dispatched to 5 different joba by my quarry . Friday , thank goodness , until i got to the sand plant to get my final load . The loader broke down halfway thru loading the second truck , got 1 hour "set time" and just managed to squeak in at 3:20 . I had an appointment at 4 . Got all that taken care of .

Greenpete, it sounds like you need some pampering! A nice massage and a box of chocolates!
