It was 36 at 0500, did not seem to get as cold as we feared last night.
It sure was nice to sleep in my own bed again last night. I have had extensive travel in the past. From mid-2004 until the end of 2006 I was gone from 0400 Monday until 11pm Thursday every week. But my big girls really seemed to miss me after only 36 hours or so.
I am so proud of them they went from helping me feed/water/hay their horses, to doing it 100% this week. I have been gone from early am until dark every day, and gone overnight one night. They are danged fine good girls and I love the stuffing out of them...
Roy, I am in your corner praying one of those jobs comes through, and I'm on your wife's side hoping you get the permanent job. I was self employed June 2008 until June 2011 and when Congress cut my budget in August 2010 it HURT. I did not work at all from mid Sept 10 through the first week of January 2011, and then I only worked 177 hours TOTAL from Jan thru mid June 2011!!!

I may not love my current job and pay level, but I am addicted to paychecks.
Dean - Thanks for the well wishes. I know the Lord has a good plan, I just need to follow it and it will all work out well. I ended up only driving a 280 mile loop (althoug in some INCREDIBLE Traffic :mur

between driving to work Wed. and home last night.
TopPop52 - I hope you get settled. Maybe we should try to schedule a "Mid-Atlantic TBN Garage build" even at your place this summer... :thumbsup:
JDgreen227 - I lost a child who was just under 7 months old and it was very hard. I actually think it would be worse the older they get. I almost lost my son at 22 a few years back when he was in a serious motorcycle accident. A good friend of mine lost a daughter who was 28 I think in a horrific accident last spring and it has devastated him and the regrets he feels are dragging him down. Your friend will not even notice the cold, it won't come close to the cold he feels inside. If you can, love him like a brother because he will need it even if he does not ask for it.
JMurray - Buy a tractor, even a toy tractor!

. Maybe then the "Post *****" charge will fade away over time. :thumbsup:
If I keep posting like this (all combinned into one) instead of each comment seperate, I'll never reach 11,000 posts... :laughing:
Be well all,
