I'm almost regretting I didn't just say yes, I'll stay another week.  This is easy work for the money.  But, today/tonight was my last hoorah here.

Well, it's easy work but it's junk equipment, not something I would want to do forever. But really nice people running the plant where you pick up the loaded trailers and you contact them when you get to the paper mill as well. They control the entire operation remotely.  

But I'd like to be home in time for this hurricane. We are a few hundred miles north of it, but that funnel graph they do? We are directly in it's path.  I"m expecting the power to go out and I want to be home if that happens to get the generator out, running and providing electricity to the freezers, refrigerator, my window AC unit lol and whatever they need for the rest of the house.  

"East Texas gets the most of it" the dude is saying right now on whatever this weather channel is showing a graph of red directly over our town.  So yeah, I"m glad to go home and help out and be with my doggies : ). 

Get 10 gallons of fuel as well.  I dunno how much fuel that generator uses. If the power goes out everywhere, the gas stations aren't going to be able to pump fuel. I asked them to get some fuel today but I didn't get a response.  Which doesn't mean anything bad, lol, she gets busy at work and sometimes I don't hear back until the next day.  She being Taylor and the house and yes, she can't deal with those wicked storms.  Extreme anxiety. I just worry about these giant trees coming down and killing all of us. They are huge  trees, I've seen the aftermath of them falling on houses and it ain't pretty. 

Good Lord, now they're saying it may hit a category 3 by the time it hits landfall and " could hit Texas with extreme winds". WTH. No thanks!  Of course, these forecasters/meteorologists could be completely wrong lol.  But this dude is convinced. Up to 14 FEET swelling going INLAND.  

And one of our accounts is directly in the path of this 9 to 14 foot surge, they are on the coast and I have no idea what they are doing, but I would suspect they are shutting the plant down and getting the hell out of there. 

There are other things going on that are high on the list of importance but - geeze. I don't want to go too deep into other people's lives - especially those I am living with and are friends - on the internet.  It's after midnight and I'm going to bed lol. A day of travel tomorrow tho when it's flying that's usually a nice day : )

 Good job Ben, really confused myself last night.  

I was up past midnight, which I normally am not. So looking at my phone last night, it said Tuesday, I thought it meant yesterday was Tuesday and today is Wednesday.  I was tired, lol.  Have a nice, lovely headache this morning from staying up too late. 

So today IS Tuesday and the flight leaves tomorrow.  I had my head wrapped around leaving this morning when I woke up, so now I have to get it back into work mode.  At least the first run is at noon instead of starting at 4:00 pm and keeping me out so late.  If I can get the plant to allow me to take the second load earlier, I can be done by probably around 8:00 pm.  9 at the latest.  If not, well, I'll still only be out til 10.  

Paperwork.  Ugh. Lots of it here.  I thought I had a lot of paperwork in Ethylene, both of these terminals and their rules I have been to up here far supersede by double at least the amount of paperwork I normally have to do.

So I sit here for 30 to 40 minutes getting that done, most of it advance work so I don't have to spend a bunch of time doing it on the road and wasting time.  

Anyway, there are some things going on at the house, but I find myself in need of going to find something to eat both for breakfast and for the road.

G'day.
