Today has been a good day. How could I ask for anything more than that

Well it is a done deal. I have made my decision! I am going to go with Astro Travel. If only for a while or a career. They made the best offer on an all things equal basis. They have also shown they will be a good step back into trucking should I go that far again. Thanks to all those who weighed in on this desicion. I am grateful always. I will be having my LAst Day here on 2/14/2006. Then it is off on the bus. Feeling real good today

Surreal

Some times I wish AOL would let us hand write in our mood. I feel good but ambivilent at the momoent the second is because of chioses I must make, the first is because of the veiws I see when I am out here. Such as the ones of where I am right now on St. George Island. THIS IS WHY I DRIVE.

Now what

Things are well today. The most impartant people in my life have weighed in on my choieses that are now before me. Tom of course,who I owe my very life to after this past summer. I looked really bad at 100 ounds(YUCK) The who has most definetly earned the right o be called brother by me. I know think that after a sit down with the travel and trucking(later this week on trucking) Ican make an informed choise. I think it will come down to benifits if nothing else. With one of my meds at 3000 per month, it will be important. We shall see how it plays out. Travel Tours gives me solitude and social as well as trucking. Both are offering good money.So it is a waiting game till all data is in. I am acually hoping that the busses come better. They do not have benifits at all, however after a cal this morning to them, The are looking into mabye something I can get on my wn for arounf 300 a month. Lets hope. I see the trucking people on Frida and Saterday. As they say about history"what comes next? turn the page" I am hoping the Great Spirit will lead this lone wolf to where he needs to be,not where he thinkss he should be.

Going better and better

Things seem tobe looking up these days. Job offers and all. I had almost forgotten a thing about driving that can be a good and bad at the same time. Time to think! When your with a group, schol , adults or otherwise, you have lots of time to get inour own head. It can be peaceful or very chotic. Tonight it is both. THe old question of where do I go from here? Back to OTR(over the road) or driving Charter Busses again. I love both. Each has there ups and downs. Busses the cargo talks back to you, and their lives are in your hand. Trucking is just you and 80,000 pounds of machine,plus lots of time alone. With Tom in y life, and so much a part of it. I would miss him either way. Both require me to leave home for days on end. Trucking he could go with me,and so could the dogs. Love my babies. The time has come though, to make a chiose, and follow through with it. I love both, I need what both can offer. Not the money, the ROAD. The road is a sickness to people like me. Cannot shake it nor do I want to. To quote my favorite song" Up here in this Cab is where I am most ALive, I am a prisoner of the highway". Guess I always will be.

Well here we go again. Looks like the cross road has definitely appeared and now I have to make a choice. I love the job at Anchor, However my skills are wasted there. With no Real Estate Experience, I have pretty much put myself into a dead end job. Astro Travel has most definitely thrown the ball into my court. They cant promise me benefits or such, but can be busy at at east till August. Then the regular slow season hits for a month. Then fall comes. Typical travel stuff to me. The next thing I have to wait for, is next weekend when I get to talk to Patti about opportunity's with here driving trucks again. GOD, this is getting interesting.  FOrm no choice to way to many. With God's Help I will make the right one.

Well I made it home from the Beaches and found GUEST. I am sure some playing went on tonight. I was not here and so at least someone was satisfied. Sometimes I really wonder why I even try

Well another day in Paradise so to speak things i Ft Walton are going well SUnny but cold. Was real cold this am. Right now just kicking back waiting for my group to come out. I really enjoy being on the bus. It is almost like being out on the road again. Not quite the same but it does keep me happy. Who knows, lots of options have been out in play this week. Including having Astro throw the ball in my court. LOL almost too many choises
