So waiting paid off. I mean, they don't have anywhere else to go, they manage to get money, obviously, so having a place to stay is probably high on their priority list. What happened was, the sister called me. I don't know her and I have never spoken with her, they must have given her my number.  She had a credit card.  Great!  So, she paid up the next 9 days and said they have cash to give me.  I ran her card, got the money going to my account, sent her a verification email, all is well. Well, I still need to collect the cash, I haven't been over there today.  

James, however, is over there finishing up the drywall. It's finally almost done.  I have no idea what the bill is going to be, I think he's spent between 60 and 70 hours in there.  I really didn't know it was going to take that long.  No idea what the bill is going to be for all of that....

I've got another guy that's called me twice now.  He at least sounds like he's coming. He is currently in Georgia but is heading here on work assignment.  He asked lots of questions the first call and we chit-chatted.  He called again early this morning (Sunday) saying he forgot to ask if I have a shower and laundry room? Why yes, yes I do!  He said he would be heading my way in the next week, he didn't know an exact date.  

I've got my $300 special on one of my ads, but I'm fixing to update everything.  I also spaced out boosting one of Facebook posts, I'll be doing that tonight as well. I need more people in there, plain and simple. I've been a bit busy going through personal stuff today, throwing a bunch of stuff out and only keeping a small portion of it.

It's all my old trucking stuff that I just put into a pile and left.  It's like, ok, I might be going back out on the road or something, I need to get this stuff sorted.  I found a pair of boots that I had forgotten about. It's a $200 pair of Irish Setter Red Wings that I barely used, only at a few certain plants and that infrequently. They are in perfect condition.  I still have an older pair that are still in good condition, I won't be switching to those any time soon. And then, I have a brand new pair that were never used.  This was the benefit of working for previous company. Once a year, you got $125 for steel toed boots. 

We had company over with a bunch of kids all playing front with water balloons, one of the ladies asked if I was going to go back to trucking? Not sure what prompted that, but I replied that I am not sure, but probably unless business picks up. Even if business does pick up, it may be that I have no choice to be able to pay down some debt.  I'll have to make up my mind next month, that's a year away from trucking (haven't missed AT ALL) and after that, some companies won't hire you for not having had driven in a long time. 

I guess it makes sense, but I could easily get into a truck right now, hook it up to a trailer, do the pre-trip and drive right on down the highway without any hesitation.  I've done it too long.  It's second nature to me, picking up where I left off wouldn't be a big deal at all. 

I will probably start blitzing trucking companies that I think I might want to work for next month.  With the shed almost done - and just needing to paint it after James is done - and really not decided on grass - I feel like I would better serve myself getting the debt down, get the credit score back up and start preparing to add amenities that will bring people in. Or hopefully they will, anyway.  

Anyway, I think this week I will go get the recertification and get that sent into Texas DOT.  Make sure they have it and input it into their system. I can't be getting disqualified over something as petty as a medical card, I've never failed it.  It's like $75. Money well spent. ? I think? lol

There will be no report on the ac unit on the RV until the man comes and diagnoses it.  Bracing myself for - not so great news, lol.  

I'm still planning on getting my @$$ up early tomorrow morning if I get any sleep tonight. Those some 50 bug bites still itchy, but it gets far worse when I'm laying in bed and trying to sleep.  This is about hooking up the trailer, going to one of the dirt piles, loading up ample dirt - by shovel of course - and fixing pot holes.  If I don't get up early, I may still go do it in the extreme heat, it really needs to get done.  

Oh, and the local gossip. Some dude decided to try to avoid police and was on highway 59 going 130 mph for quite a ways before he crashed into whatever and that was the end of it. Allegedly, he was going that fast through town.  I can only imagine they must have shut down the road to avoid accidents.  

Anyway, not a particularly lazy Sunday, but we did go to church. I opted out of going out to eat, just trying to save money. We have plenty of food to prepare at home.  

It's bed time.
