Goodaye all, a fairly big week, linehaul and doing change overs don’t go so well together, but got it done legal and luckily, no real dramas. The closure of Edgar St might have caught me out and that one error, could have really spoiled the day, but luckily went the back way and whilst possibly slower than using the ringroad, turned out OK.
Tried to go to sleep, but got a call about another delay with the new truck and that set my mind to overthinking and overplanning and then I could not sleep, so read, had a light tea and got half way home and then went to bed and slept well.
Now home for a quick visit, do audiobooks, make lists, overthink and plan some more and try to make things happen over which I have little control and many others involved that make it like trying to juggle while being juggled, but I have a plan and back up, but still have to co-ordinate many others and hope it works.
Two funny things happened after last weeks post, in which I may have got a bit maudlin, but espoused the view you must keep trying. Got to have breakfast and discuss next years NRFA AGM and that looks good and on the path to a good plan. But someone thinks I do this to get something for me and then I had a note on a toilet door offering my number for a good time. Thanks to the driver who thought it a step too far and had it removed. At least it did mention National Road Freighters, so I think it came from a radio listener. If you have the balls to own up, happy to hear from you what your grievances are!
But having now tried to fit in 8 hours stuff into 5, have to run. Till next week, Safe Travelling, Rod Hannifey.
