My Husband is Back to Work . . . . .

Thanks everyone for your prayers & thoughts. 

Tom called in on Friday at 11 am, and they said they had a load for him.  So he left and drove the 10 hours down, and loaded Saturday morning.  Unfortunately it does work out that we have no income for last week, and will have to pay in for the health insurance. 

He did stop here at the house Saturday night for dinner; he was on his way to Michigan to deliver 7 cars. 

He is hoping to unload today, & get reloaded, but he may need to go all the way back to SC empty.  They were not sure if there would be any cars to be picked up in the factories in the midwest.

I'm glad he got a job and I hope he has a haul for the trip back to S.C. I'll try to read some of your old comments to help out. I know it only amounts to a few pennies, but every little bit may count in situations like this.

Hang in there, honey. Things will get better for all of us, soon.

One job is better than nothing. Maybe he will get lucky and find a load on the way. God helps those that help themselves. He is willing and you are standing by him. Miracles do happen.

Paying it forward a little late, but the points still count!

My Hubby drove his own rig,but for a company. He had to give it up when Katrina hit, as the fuel prices shot up so high (he had to pay for his own fuel), and from the roads being so torn up, he had to go WAY out of the normal routes to deliver. My heart goes out to all the truckers and families that are fighting so hard to keep their heads above water now! I will keep you in my prayers. GOD BLESS
Carol V. Feb 15, 2009, 11:20pm EST
Hopefully he'll be back to fulltime driving soon.
