Greg got up at 4:00 and got on the road.   I decided to sleep in a bit but felt like a ball in a pinball machine getting knocked all around so now I am up too.    Dizzy and nauseous.  LOL.  I don’t know how he did it for two months while in training.

Off to Kenosha, Wisconsin this morning to drop off the beef.

Ok. Made it on time.  Not a good sign on how long we will be here when the guy at the guard house says “park over there and take a nap”!   Oy

Well, that went better than expected. In an out in two hours. Now we get a trailer wash out and head to Illinois to get our load to take to Wyoming. New state!!  Yeah!!

Got to next place to get our load, just outside of Chicago.   Been here almost two hours and Greg went in to see how long we would be and he said he couldn’t tell for sure but there were 14 Trucks waiting to be loaded so at least 4-6 hours.   Looks like another night in a parking lot.

Well, 4 1/2 hours and counting.   No word yet.   Its 8:30 so might as well try to get some sleep.

Not a lot of pictures today.   I figured you have seen enough corn fields for now.   LOL

DG:  Schedulers!  Anybody out there know how to read a clock?  Our load outside of Chicago was scheduled so tight I would have had to speed to get here on time.  (Don’t tell anyone, but I did just a little.)  But not enough.  Got here 15 minutes past my scheduled arrival.  Not sure what’s going on.  They are either really behind or they are playing games with us and  taking all the trucks that got here on time and are getting here at their scheduled appointment on time, but after us ahead of us or they really are seven hours behind.  Either way, it’s ridiculous.  I laughed reading a sign posted in their break room about everyone going to 10 hour shifts because they are really busy and their customers want their products on time or they will buy somewhere else.  Well, I don’t know what they make or sell, but when I find out I am not buying any of it.  Lord only knows when I would get it.  LOL.

I learned something the last time this happened.  When a shipper runs your clock down to next to nothing, hang around till it resets and you don’t have to go somewhere else to reset it.

All in all it’s still good.  I mean, if we were home we would have spent the evening watching TV, just like we did tonight, but in a much larger living room, with a much larger TV.  But, I am with the love of my life and I do believe we are growing closer, if that’s possible, so I am focused on that and not the trivial, sniveling, incompetence…….Ahem, dare I digress.  It’s all good.  Good night and God Bless.
