When I decide we needed to walk a bit more this morning, the thought of a shower and the blood that was caked on the back of my head was a much more appealing idea. I told dispatch I was driving to a truck stop for a shower, he stated that I should do that during my 10 hour break and I stated......Sam's Club doesn't have showers! I logged onto line 3 driving (which started my clock and that was quickly noted) and headed to the Flying J.
I washed a load of clothes (which I am now drying) and took my shower. Just as I got back to the truck, I got my load......42,000 pounds of beef going to Montana, cattle country! Maybe they just send them south for slaughter, raised the price for packaging and shipping and then hit the Montana locals with jacked up prices from cattle they raise. It is only my thought after my time in New Zealand........they did the same thing with sheep, their meat and their wool.
I think if the weather holds out (we are only an hour south of Cheyenne) we should hit Billings before our hours run out as the load is due first thing Thursday morning. And the closer I get to home, the more this dang tooth is bothering me. I better have my Cobra package waiting for me when I get home for Werner so I can at least get a little help on the fees. But after talking to the front office gal, the insurance refused payment for my teeth cleaning! You know, I may be on the road but I do have email and a telephone which I will address with my dentist as this work was done back in September!
Time to fold laundry and try to sleep............
