Been Awhile , sorry

I know it has been awhile, but been busy trying to get settled in and set up, with my new place and job and finding a workout place, yes you read right, a workout place, the Center Court , a part of the Y facilities, so the best of all for me, and 50 a month for all I get , wow. A good wow, reasonable if used to the fullest.

I am in the process of decideing what to do this winter and it will depend on my employer and what he can arrange for me to do, because I can not work out and be on the road too, will not work , we know that, for me anyway.

Why a tires so expensive, 2 tires for my Taurus is about 250 installed, ouch , guess I need to buckle down and get some soon , as winter is close, real clsoe...lol.

Stuck in Scranton, overnight, actually almost 48hrs

Well I had my day at PID and well I did not win the life changing score , heck I even barely played anything remotely possible to give me a score that big. A few pick 3's and 2 pick 4's were to biggest exotic's I played and each was under a 12.00 a pop, I think 6 , 3( a 1.00 wager)  and 12, so not much spent and a few exacta's , some I hit , but not the higher priced one's, the most logical one's, which still made my day not a total loss, but PID made not fun either, having no where for me to watch and play the races , yet tables upstairs in the restruant went unused, apparently being saved for people who never showed up, I saw at least 8 tables vacated, the few time s I went up there to ask about a table, oh well, never again.

I am headed back to Calgary again from the Scranton area, actually Tunkhannock, Pa, what a name, but I couldn't make that up if I tried, so most likely I may get loaded late tonight , after midnight, but then sit till morning before I can actually , legally drive and begin the journey back north, regulations, sometimes they work against you, but we need them anyway.

Still nothing as far as a place to live in  Grand Forks yet, and honestly not really wanting to waste the money but, living out of the truck all winter would really suck bigtime, and motel rates are too much for me to keep getting a room all the time, and the fact of me not being able to cook sucks, but may help my weight, maybe, but then I must eat out too much, like always, YA KNIW LIFE SUCKS SOMEDAYS, AND THEN YOU REALIZE, you are an idiot because so many others are jobless, and would love to have your job, and for that I say come and get it, there is more room here for drivers, lots of room for drivers here, actually 50 or more for that matter, but then I could be worse off with no job and homeless too, so suck it up and be happy, and even then I find it hard to do it, day after day, and the sad part is I am making no progress towards my goals of saving money and such things, again I am only making enough to survive , not pack away enough in a year or 2 to have enough $$$$ to look at a finding a dumpy old REPO in south Fla, for about 10-30k  , a place to call home till the day the Good Lord comes to take me home with him, the OILFILED work is still there and will be , but not in my current shape, nope not a chance, but there at least I could make the money needed to try to buy a place in Florida, as a 6 month or 2 year gig in Oil work would more than give me the money needed to get a place, but could I survive even a 6 month gig there, not sure I could sad to say, can not lie to myself can I, well that's not true either...lol

Gotta run , hope when I do find a place I do not end like this guy, wouldn't that just suck...lol
