I went to bed early last night, around 9:30. I set the alarm for 5:30 so I could get up and have some coffee and be ready to roll when the sun comes up. I'm about 7 hours from my delivery point in the FL panhandle and they leave at 4:00pm central time. If I don't run in to any major delays I should be able to make it easily enough. But the way this trip has gone, that's a major IF.
The stress of the past few day's incidents had taken it's toll I suppose. I was dead tired last night and fell asleep almost immediately and slept soundly through the night which is a rarity for me. I actually feel somewhat rested this morning.
As it's Friday and I'll be making delivery fairly late in the afternoon I suspect that I'll wind up spending the weekend parked somewhere as the odds are slim that there will be something for me to pick up that late. I may get lucky and they'll find something that can load Saturday, but I'm not going to count on that. As much as this trip has been a huge waste of time, sitting all weekend will just top the whole thing off. A two day trip has taken all friggin week already. So much for the ole paycheck.
The sky is starting to lighten now, so it's time to get back out there and warm up the engine. Time to start another day.
