Givin' it all away, happens everyday
No matter what we say, we're Givin' it all away

The Two Items...
#1. My office/workspace/prime mover/ 2006 Freightliner Coronado
#2. My cell phone/government spy & tracking device
The two items I use the most often. I use them to make a living. To earn what used to be good money. Money to pay the tyrannical government overlords for freedom. Extortion in the form of taxes and permits and licensing and endorsements and more taxes on top of taxes... Try not paying them and see where you end up. You get my point right?
I have a few other career opportunities I am trying to fast track and secure. Time is of the essence. And I am not a patient man.
I am trying to focus on what comes next for the ol' and the
family.
I guess the most frustrating part of this out of control planned inflation destroying millions of small businesses just like mine. Is the pure madness that it is being done purposefully by tyrants to try to keep the power they posses.
Our situation is a slow painful financial burn. I have shut down all maintenance repair spending. Necessary spending only. The freight rates are at less than half for the same loads I hauled a year to two years ago. The trucks generated revenue has more than cut in half. While the operational costs associated with it have doubled and a few have even tripled. It is not sustainable.
I do know that if I disappeared this prime mover and phone I use everyday to search and secure the next loads to pick up and deliver. Life would be much different. I also know that the time is coming fast where I will have to give them both away. After 32+ years of this way of life. I am terrified of being without them. But I am ready to except it.
I hope you who may read this are weathering the storms of life and seeing the sunlight peak out from behind those storm clouds. I will miss the many sunrises I have seen out on the highways.
But I welcome seeing them sitting right here on The Pookyville Cat Ranch front porch swing.
It has been a long FUCKEN TRUKKIN'Day here in the KrazzyTrukkers world. Started at 6 am. And it lasted 12 hours. A one hour break to type this post up. Now it is time to do some more chores here at the ranch and maybe at the 16-18 hour mark I can lay my head down for a 4-5 hour Cat Nap =,,=
Thanks for stopping by and...
