Well.
We finally made it home! And it was great seeing everyone but honestly, the time went by way too fast. We had so much shit to do and not enough time to do it.
Such is a truckers life I suppose.
So we hit the road again yesterday. I must say, I love it. I love to see new things. It feels less stressful out here, honestly. Out here it's just work. eat. sleep. play occasionally. When we go back home we stress about forgetting things. Not having enough time to spend with everyone. Worrying about getting things done in a short amount of time. It sucks.
This first load back is to Red Bluff, California. We get to take I-80 west most of the way there, then I-5 the rest of the way. So far it's been pretty warm, Nevada is mostly desert so it's nice. We stayed the night in Wendover because they gave us plenty of time to do this load, there's a place next to the Chevron that's a trucker's lounge, and we got a free shower this morning :)
On the down side, I have the flu now. It's super awesome. Ugh.
Kitty was sulking yesterday when we put him in the truck at first, but now he's his usual self, constantly meowing for food. He's a piggy. A very cute one though.
Well, that's about it for now. Until next time,
Rick, Lola, and Kitty
Kitty is a stress eater, lol. Road trips make you feel like you're leaving your problems behind. On the road you are beholden to the job, and each other, with less family demands (you left them behind). Though I read an article once that road trips refresh the brain. Duh.....enjoy the ride!
