It's the GFS, a broken clock is more accurate. 

Also I saw your video. Hang in there, life will get better for you. 

lol...true

As for the video, there's been a couple of positive developments. I might go back to hauling water, but I do have an interview with another company tomorrow hauling potted plants and flowers, and if I like what they offer, I may go there instead. As a friend of mine said. "The past is in the rearview mirror, keep pushing FORWARD..."

We shall see.

Nothing like doing a trash can chase before you have your morning coffee. Our whole street for blocks is riddled with them this morning. I got ours, and all my close in neighbors' cans and put them in safe places, but farther down the lane is an obstacle course...lol

I noticed that there is trash everywhere from the wind the last few weeks.  Awful.

Rain here seems lighter than radar would suggest. I was just under reds and oranges and it was barely moderate intensity. 

Yeah it was. I was expecting more in the gauge but as it stands .24” and a low of 35. Heading to Philly tomorrow for the NCAA wrestling championships. Penn State first team in history to send guys from all ten weights to the quarterfinals.

Thankfully ours were emptied out by the trash guys before the wind cranked up. They start early around these parts and sometimes are out picking up at 1 or 2 am.

I thought maybe you required the assistance of the experienced garbage can chaser Canderson on retrieving your waste receptacles.

Revisiting this post this morning as I have a choice to make today. One is to go with a new company where I'll be semi local, meaning that I'll be out away from the house a couple to several nights, or go back to the water in a shared truck situation running a 12 noon shift. The guy I'd share the truck with is not used to having a PM shift partner and is also picky about his truck.

I want to be home every night, but at the same time, don't want to put up with being "picked on" because the dude doesn't like sharing, and having to re-adjust the seats and mirrors every day. Nothing is ever easy... :unsure:

Most of the area received between 0.60” to 0.80” of rain with Nottingham recording 0.80”. Here in East Nantmeal we received 0.66” of rain we are now near normal for March and up to 70% of normal rainfall for the year through yesterday. We are starting to make some nice progress to ease our local drought conditions. Chillier today a bit warmer tomorrow before we turn chillier on Sunday. Next solid rain chances look to arrive toward Monday.

I think it’d opt for the regional gig.

I was ready to until we got to the part where my days off would be mostly mid-week. That's an almost 90% deal breaker as my wife has a Monday to Friday, off weekends job.

We'd hardly ever see each other, nor have opportunities to travel or recreate together.

Some scattered light showers today followed by a solid freeze tonight and below normal temperatures tomorrow with highs only in the 40's. There is the chance of some snow showers on Sunday night changing to rain showers on Monday. It is warmer to start the week with highs near 60 degrees but then fall to close to a little below normal for much of the upcoming work week. Normal highs this coming week are in the mid 50's.
