Friday - late afternoon
Today was different. The slow guy wasn't loading - he was there but he was doing something else. So another person got me into the bay and started loading within 5 minutes of my arrival. I was home by 12:23 this afternoon. 2 plus hour difference from yesterday. Simple, just get us loaded. It doesn't take that long and there is no reason to abandon your plant's appointment times.

Many hours later. Lol. We went to one of our favorite mexican food restaurants for my birthday celebration. The kids were in a bad mood for whatever reason but I didn't let it sour the festive atmosphere. They brought out a crew of people to sing happy birthday, I was looking around for it but didn't see it. What is it?
IT is a plate full of whipped cream. And sure enough, they got me right in the face! It was all good fun and the entire place was laughing lol. I saw them doing that to James a few years back, I wondered if they were going to try that on me and yes, they did.
I've heard nothing from Trey. Not that I expect to, he's not been back either. It's the verge of the weekend. I'm wondering what he's going to do about this situation. Surely he'll come back for his dad's tools if nothing else. There's a lot of them and high quality. If he leaves the trailer, I will have it moved out back and apply for - I think they have an abandoned title in this state or something like that. He's living with his girlfriend, he doesn't need a trailer. Maybe the mom will want it? I surely don't. Just more stuff to deal with. I have no idea what condition the thing is on the inside, I have envisioned a rather trashed out place especially with Trey living in there and his parents gone.
The boy - that's what I'm going to refer to him in this blog, he's 18, has a job and goes to a local college - took the Park Host sign just as I asked him to. He's all over free rent. I'm all over someone to do the stuff I really don't; want to do.
I have tomorrow to deliver and then Sunday off. And then Monday and Tuesday early load, amazingly enough. Usually they dump me with 2cd load after a weekend day or entire weekend off.
I dunno what else. I think about expanding the park and then I put it out of my mind. It's been currently out of my mind, it'll pop back in again after I start assessing my situation. My situation being my age, my life span, the ability to get it done before "things" start happening to the extent that mobility might become a problem. Happens to a lot of people at whatever age - old - and I'm certainly approaching that age. I've seen people younger than me experiencing that stuff. I don't wish it on them or me, just saying it happens.
I really just want the thing to pay my expenses, all of them, and not have to do anything else. I don't need to get rich. But if it comes down to it, I will sell that place, pay off debt and be happy. I can tell ya, I am much happier right now, now that I've dumped Trey. He was a burden. He was a drain on me, he wouldn't communicate, he wouldn't reply to texts until hours later, usually. Even this electric job he claims he did that was worth 5k, lmao. The guest sent me a pic of his fill job of the trench, there is still a foot deep that he didn't back fill.
He just left it like that and stupid me didn't check his work. A hole in the ground, nothing can go wrong with that, right?
Well it's late now, I'm going to bed.
