I am tired and ache all over. Yesterday was a Monday in disguise. About the worst day I have had since I have been here. I am into the second week on site already. I had two new drivers cycle in. One replaced a very good Leroy while the other is an additional truck. This morning I was In the best shape I have been in since we started down here.

It seems as though all I have done is run to and from town. Yesterday I went to Kingsville to pick up some things, thinking I was done for a few days. This morning the "new" truck that arrived late last night called me telling me he had some issues that needed my attention. His trailer came out of the shop yesterday had a light problem. It seems the shop had left too much wire and it had gotten on the tire and rubbed all the insulation off. That meant another trip to pick up supplies to fix it. While I was there I dropped off my laundry. I wasn't out of clothes but I was just trying to combine trips.

With the new driver coming in so late last night, it threw my schedule totally off. I got to my trailer about midnight, (they had awakened me before six yesterday morning) showered and crawled between the covers and read briefly before turning out the light. I didn't even eat supper.

This morning my butt is still dragging!

According to the posted numbers we are about 25% done!

Hope your day is good!

FATHER, give me the patience and the wisdom I need to deal with this job and my cop-workers.
