A bunch of useless crap
I had a message on my machine when I got home this evening. It was from my former boss at the trucking company I was driving for when I had the car wreck a little over a year ago. He said he has my truck "cleaned up, polished up, and ready to rock and roll."

I have been considering going back to driving for him although I am still not certain the hip is going to be up to it. But maybe it will be. Grrrr. I do know that the money would be more than double what I currently earn. But I would also be on the road a lot, and home not a lot. And of course I'd have to buy another laptop for the road. But I sure do miss it in a lot of ways.

I need to return his call tomorrow, but I just don't know what to tell him. I do know I need a little more time to make sure I have enough money to cover my household expenses the first of the month as well as buying a plane ticket to get up to Wisconsin.

Crap! For once in my life I am at a total loss and just don't know what the best decision is in this case. Maybe I should just toss a coin.

Well, the decision is made and I've committed to it. He's paying for the airfare, I fly out Monday morning. I also solved the problem of getting to the airport. I called a guy who owes me a favor, and he's going to give me a ride to the airport.

Now I just have to get packed and get the house prpared to be vacant for a little while. But I think I'll have a beer or three first.

Still not sure it's the right decision, but hell, you only live once and I really do want to know if I've recovered from the wreck enough to do it. Worse case, I find that I can't do the work any more, get all my belongings back that were left in the rig when I had my wreck, and find something easier.
