To load or not to load

Well, we all know by now that Tom is my boyfriend and that Tom is driving for a trucking company as an independent contractor.  Well, in order to be successful he needs loads.  They were supposed to get him home the eighteenth and the nineteenth, which they did not do.  He’s now sitting out in a parking lot God only knows where waiting for them to give him a load.  He can’t drive, because that would put him on duty and that would mean that he couldn’t drive after ten hours.  He’s trying to sleep, but its really hot and he doesn’t want to have to run the truck to keep cool.  He’s got to pay for fuel and the truck payment and he figures he needs 1200 miles a week to do that.  Well, so far he’s not getting it.  As much as I would love to see him, I’ll go without seeing him for however long God wants me to if He’ll just give Tom loads.  I’m so worried and I don’t know what to do about it other than pray.  And pray I have been.  He’s supposed to be getting around 2500 miles a week.  I just want him to get as much as he can legally get.  He’s got bills to pay.  Do me a favor – keep him in your prayers this week as well.  Thanks.

  • Rest, relax, heal.  No work for me today!
