Enough already….

IMG00028 Our little dog Spot and Dick, my wonderful husband of 35 years, and I made our way East as the paid tourists we love to be. The winter is sooo marvelous and beautiful. We had a load of guacamole back in the reefer. Mr. Smith at Acme Quacamole is anxiously waiting for us. God bless him. My sweet hubby Dicky woke us all up at 3:15am knowing that we needed to get an early start on the day. I made our usual 3 course breakfast back in the bunk to keep us nourished. While I was churning the fresh butter for Dick’s homemade bread that I baked in the truck the night before, he was outside helping 3-4 other drivers with their chains. He also held a Sunday service for weary and stressed travelers. What a wonderful man he is, so helpful. God bless him. Well, that’s all for now. God bless you all. I took this photo for you and I’ve got to go back now to sewing bandages for our troops in Afghanistan.

Bullshit. Are you kidding me or what?

I left freak’n South Dakota on Friday and I’ve had nothing but shitty weather for the past 1800 miles. Snow, snow and more freak’n snow. Believe me, I’m not paid tourist. I’m work’n my frozen fat ass off. 600 miles a day of snow and ice, snow and ice and every stupid freak’n dumb ass 4 wheeler along side of me, behind me and in front of me. And let’s throw in every jackass amateur trucker that doesn’t know his ass from his elbow. What a buncha morons.

Right now I’m in Carlisle PA. I have three drops at government installations in the area. That means having my truck searched and my ID checked three separate freak’n times. I’ve got to find out what is so damn important about the lumber I’m delivering that requires any type of security. No wonder we’re the country is going to hell in a freak’n hand basket.

I just spend $16 on some chicken, french fries and a roast beef sandwich at Roy Rogers. Welcome to the Northeast. It’s 29 degrees and the warmest I’ve been in a week. The Academy Awards are on and I couldn’t care less. I don’t think I’ve seen any of the nominated movies for the past three years. I’m too busy driving around in the freak’n snow.
