Friday

Thank God we made it to Friday.  Bly is exhausted, I’m exhausted, this working for a living thing is murder! In case you’re wondering, she is working from home.  Eight hours a day, and they do check that she’s ON her computer and available!  Not that they need to, Bly has a work ethic that […]

My Truck

I’m going to miss that truck.  Yes, *sigh*, we took it back last night.  No more big orange-and-white adventure sitting in my driveway.  There was a close moment as we passed the I-10 signs and I tried to convince Bly we really wanted to see El Paso, but, *sigh again*, she told me maybe next

Adapting

Unloading

Don’t worry, I told Bly as she eyed clouds.  We’ll be able to get the truck unloaded with no hassles.  It doesn’t rain in Tucson in June.  Ever. Apparently–I lied.  Damn.  The weather man (who did not email me last night, and you can’t tell me he didn’t see it coming) called it the “Too

Home!!!

Got home at one this morning.  Couldn’t quite believe it.  We backed the truck up to the fence (to make it exceptionally awkward for thieves to try and get in it) and came upstairs and tried to adjust to not needing to hurry up and get back in the truck. Bly was really nervous about

I-10!!!

We got onto I-10 right after Las Cruces.  I-10 runs through Tucson.  I’m almost home! I don’t want it to be over.  I can certainly use a few days to recuperate, but I think then I’d like to jump in the truck and go again.  That won’t be happening, I know.  But now I know
