Maybe I shouldn't be so irritated with work and the way I got shafted for runs.  The dog is apparently getting better. I only saw a few very small stains on the towels this morning.  It's been a week since the surgery. "All things work together for good for those that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose" - or something like that, scripture in the New Testament.  

Actually, I dread going back to work this morning.  I got up early so I could sit around, drink a cup of coffee and attempt to get my mind back into the business of trucking.  I could also get irritated with them starting me out on the lowest paying run I can get, but, I'll be home tomorrow morning.  

Just going to get a lot more frugal with my money. Not only have I been off, tho I am using vacation hours, just enough to have some semblance of a paycheck - inflation is also eating away at everyone's income and now we have fuel prices skyrocketing.  

I think splurging on things is going to come to a halt. I don't regret getting that new desk.  It cost a bit, but I have always wanted a much larger desk to organize my papers in.  This one has a filing cabinet drawer, very large one and a smaller version of one as well. Plus two other drawers and of course the hutch with a lot storage compartments. 

I also bought an ottoman so I can kick my feet up - but that was $25 and now I just need to get a small stand for the TV satellite and the game console and I'm set. Get rid of this old desk - already have someone that wants that - move everything around to where I want it, clean it up and done.  

I didn't waste the time off, at least.  But I need to make an eye doctor appointment, I wonder how many days off I'll be unloaded with if I do that? Or a doctor check up with blood work?  Or when I need time off for the property? This dispatcher is a piece of work.  I'm either overloaded with work and no stop in sight or I'm at a standstill with little or nothing in sight.  Some of it is out of her control, but only a small portion of it.  

Anyway, I guess I best get my body moving, it's funny how fast time flies when you are facing clocks.  Then, when you get on the clock, how slow it goes by sometimes lol.  

Kind of stalled on the diet. I knew that was coming, I dropped way too much weight, too fast, for it to continue.  Stuck around 215.  Could take a way for the needle to move again.  Funny thing about Keto, tho, often times when you aren't losing any weight you notice that you are still losing fat.  A lot of people say this as well.  Dunno how that works, but it does.  The goal is to get rid of fat, so I'm all good with it.
