I decided to drive to the yard and get the truck over here. Just felt like I didn't want to drive 35 miles the wrong direction tomorrow and then that much back this way.  Since tomorrow is Sunday, that 35 minutes I'm saving today may very well get me clear to Atlanta tomorrow.  Not having to deal with rush hour traffic will also be helpful.

And I'm waiting for this person to show up with my keto dinners. A locally owned business that serves up all kinds of dishes, Keto is a specialty that they are diving into because the demand is starting to uptick.  

At the yard, today and however, I saw one of the owner operators who had had a run to Brownsville after me - hooked up to another Brownsville trailer.  My  manager is obviously trying to keep everyone busy, I won't complain about not getting a brownsville run instead.  It turns out there is only one of those loads going out per day and there is no detention time since it's easy for the plant down there to keep up with just one empty having to come up.  

I dunno if I have any good reason to be hopeful, but I will hope that by the time I get back from this run, the loading plant will be back to normal. 

Whatever the case, it's starting to get - late. Sort of. Time to text this person and see what's up.  I didn't spend all day today cooking because this company is making me all of these meals. 

Oh, I saw a large property I hadn't noticed before just outside of town with a Century 21 sign out in front of it. Couldn't find that property on any of the listings tho. It would be a perfect location and heavily wooded.  Right off a semi-major highway, nice road and easy access.  Pretty much the god properties I find are either too pricey or already sold. Lol

25 minutes, I'm informed on the meals.  I want to see how big the containers are and if I can fit all of them in  the refrigerator plus have room for lunch stuff.  

We celebrated the 4 year old's birthday today.  Well we did yesterday, but today they had people over to have a small party.  Video on my Facebook page, lol.  I broke my diet - after not breaking it for a while - to have some birthday cake. I must say, eating delicious sugar filled cake was wonderful.  I'll pay for that, of course, but nice lol.  

And the truck.  One of the mud flaps came off - the entire bracket with it - last trip. The mechanic said he was going to fix it on Friday - yesterday - which he didn't do.  I can't be driving that many miles without a mud flap, James and I dealt with that this afternoon.  Fortunate that this town has a NAPA auto parts and most of them carry truck parts.  

With that, I"m going to finish my preparations for this trip and go to bed - early .
