Hi guys, I know it's been a while since I posted anything but i'm still alive and well :).... Work has been very steady and i've been racking up a lot of miles every week so i'm doing really well on that front, the only down side to all that driving is that it's taking a toll on my knees, causing me some discomfort/pain from sitting and the vibration of the road. Someone suggested buying a padded seat cover for the truck seat and that may help give some extra support. I will need to look for one that is affordable as the truck stops are really pricey.

Some really good news is that all my hard work has been noticed by my bosses and I was asked to transfer to a brand new distribution center that will open in a few weeks at a MUCH higher pay rate PLUS additional miles, meaning I could potentially DOUBLE my pay! This is GREAT news for me but I do have some concerns about the additional driving time in and around the Atlanta area. One suggestion made to me was to stay at a hotel on my days off if I was too far from home to make it in the allotted time. This may work out if I need to, but theres really no place like home to relax.

On that note I was thinking of selling my house and moving further north to be closer to the GA line, making it somewhat easier to make it back home, but this will depend on if the new work crew will be able to dispatch me with a "home load" ... one that brings me into an area closer to home so I can simply go home after dropping off the outgoing load. This will have to be seen once I get to the new place to see how the operation works out. I know selling my house would be a real pain in the butt with the way things are going today, but it's in the back of my mind now, and even finding a new place could put some crazy burdens on me that I don't really need or want. All thoughts running thru my head.

I really DO miss hanging out with friends and all, but with covid still roaming around it may be best to let things stay apart for a while longer, just to see what happens. At least theres online so it'll help :)

I hope everyone is well and staying safe. miss you guys!
