9.5 hours left on my 14 .........

It is 10:30 EST and still no load.  I have cleaned the truck, gone for a walk, groomed Gonja and watched half of Black Death, a real good movie about knights fighting evil, watch  it instant on Netflix.......there is my commercial for today!

It is starting to rain, the needed humidity is good for the truck (kills static electricity) and good for my hair (calm curls instead of frizz).  I am thinking about crab salad for lunch and maybe a nap afterwards. 

You know, I was told I eat too well for being a professional driver! I precook all my meat and freeze it the day before I hit the road.  I stock up on dry goods, dairy, fresh fruit and veggies.  My meals can be anything from duck orange with asparagus and mash potatoes to sweet and sour chicken on rice.  My daily meals average about $5 a day, all taken out of my truck and heated up in the truck stops.  I have turned a few heads and eager noses when the microwave sends out the wonderful aroma of a home prepared meal.

Don't get me wrong, I do eat out once or twice a week (usually breakfast because it is the cheapest meal of the day you can purchase).  But preparing your own healthy food in small portions is soooooo much better than a hot dog with a side of  nachos! 

Now I will return to my movie........sure wish I could have washed my laundry during this wait!

Now which meal looks better FOR you?  My truck doesn't sigh in relief when I get out ;)



Couldn't resist this hot dog!
