Ok guys, just think if your name happened to be "INDIA" - I always have to add "like the country!" The bank mis-spelled my name and I called to correct it and they spelled it wrong AGAIN. I finally went to the bank to get the problem settled once and for all. Their solution: "Sorry, but it...

Oh this sounds so wonderful! We have to use the sugar free hot chocolate but, like you, we are loving this cold weather. This week we ran into snow and freezing rain for the first time this year. We are stocked up on movies and have our little heater in the truck. The last time we were home...

Oh Mike, these are so beautiful! Hasn't the Fall been unusually gorgeous this year? Wow! Breathtaking beauty! I love the picture of the various trees with the sun hitting that yellow one. It looks like it is all lit up. A verse in Psalms says the trees clap their hands with joy unto the...

Our greatest challenge in 2008 is the adjustment to high fuel prices. Fuel prices are part of the determining factor when deciding how far to dead head to a busy freight lane. If we deliver freight to a location which is a great distance from a busy freight area we then must decide if it is...

Cheri mentioned in another post about using a pastry brush for dusting around the driver portion of the cab. I LOVE that idea. I am getting a pastry brush for cleaning. She has the most amazing ideas. When spot cleaning clothes I learned to use a little bit of toothpaste and an old...

The curtains that separate the sleeper from the cab get a lot of movement. They tore loose from the brackets that hold them right where the curtains come together. I was ready to try some Gorilla Glue on them to try to repair it but the place where they were made had a simple solution: take...

Hmm, interesting article. We are loving our new Garmin 660. It updates by connecting it to the computer and going to their website. It does the traffic alerts also but the main feature I like is being able to update it often. It still doesn't have truck routes but it does everything else we...

It's that time of year to start thinking about Christmas gifts and I have a suggestion...actually two. Tony Dungy's best selling book is GREAT - it is "Quiet Strength" and really inspiring! It will make a cool gift for a guy on your list. Sharon Schuller Kiser's book, "That End of Lilac Lane"...
