You ever wake up in the morning and really look forward to going to work?? I do except when its like 40 below i not like that fact that i have to get out of the warm bed and go and freeze my ass off.other then that i like being there seeing whats going on and dealing with the many people i have dealt with over the 15 years of delivering frieght in this big city here. Before i started working at the delivering job i pretty much hated having to deal with customers on a regular basis. But with this job i have no choice. Which is a good thing.I like to be there and see whats going on and to help to get what needs to be done as fast as we can so that everyone is happy which some days isnt the easiest thing in the world to do.BUt we all do what we can with what we have to work with to get the job done the best and the fastest way.You now that people say u r only as good as the people that work for you. I can say i have good employees now because they sure can make my job alot easier.Not very long ago i had some people that worked for me which i thought were good guys ,, boy was i wrong. these people made my job hell and it wasnt fun being there.I have seen kindergarten kids do better jobs for the most part them some of these guys did.BUt these guys are all gone now and i am much happier and less grey hair now. Not that that means alot since i have very little hair any ways.But on that note this guy is off to bed and have to get up ealry once again to go to work Later folks take care

yea folks the title is true this last saturday melissa and i went to regina so that i could get another tattoo done and she could get the one she has touched up. Will this be the last one for me??? the answer is nope. I have one more thing that i wanna get.Not sure as to when but i now that i will.Other then that everything has been going quite good work wise and for other things as well. Next month i will be moving to a house. Yes a house. I have lived in an apartment for quite some time now and living in a house will be a huge change for me. Alot more room thats for sure. I have 2 other guys at work that are a huge asset there. They care about there work and i not have to chase them around all the time having to make sure that its all working out right which believe me is a huge thing since it gives me more time to do my actual job which is running the place not just delivering freight or getting it all ready for them to take out. Dont get me wrong i enjoy going out and talking to customers that i have dealt with now going on my 16th year of freight hauling. All these years of freight has taken its toll on me i might add. My body some days seems like its about to give out. Maybe its me or maybe i am to old for this work lol. But i do now there are guys alot older then me thats been doing it lot longer so i better suck it up and keep it going right folks?? You not have to answer i already now what u r going to say he he. Well on that note i am signing off and going to get the beauty sleep i so deserve. Later fols take care all and see you again

Well folks im not to sure how many of you all out there now that june 22 was a day that some one special was taken away from us. My dad better known as ed to many many people lost his battle to cancer.He was diagnosed with cancer for awhile but he stil managed to have fun and enjoy lifefor the most part. I cant say how much pain and suffering he went through cause i wasnt dealing with what he had. But i can bet it wasnt much fun for him to have to go through all that. Even the last night that he was here with us he found the strength he needed to joke around and have fun  like he was well known for.He was a  great dad here  helping out in any way shape or form that he could to help out people  who asked for his help. There was close to 35 people  in our neighbourhood that called him dad so that should say for its self how muhc that people  liked him. He liked to take us hunting or fishing or just to sit and have  abeer with people. I know that he is sitting there and seeing whats going on down here with everyone. I now that he is missed alot by alot of people for the things that he did to help them.The one thing  that pisses me off about all this is why him? Why should it be the good people that are taken from us?  I now that the lord works in mysterious ways and we cant do anything about what he does.I guess we just have to accept what happens even though we all arent happy with what happens. Dad wasnt on this earth to hurt he was here to help and then he was taken away from us by that  disease called cancer. My g/f  who name is melissa  knows what i am saying here as well. Her mom was also taken from all her loved ones by cancer as well. She as well as dad helped who she could and once again was taken away.Melissa and i both know the pain and suffering that one go through when losing a loved one. Both melissa and i have tattoos on our bodies that show our loved and respect to our parents that were taken from us. We both know that they can seee what we did and we now that are happy with that. Dad(ED) and Joyce i can tell u right now that you both are really missed by the ones that love  you and always will be. I have to sign off now but this is one post that i had to write. Bye for now. Take care everyone that reads this.

well folks here we are again.Its sunday night and the wekend is over yet again.what did i do this one.??  Well for starters melissa and i went to regina on saturday. for what u ask. we  went so that she could get a tattoo done.This tattoo was a special one because it was an angel  for her mom. It said in loving memory of and then her moms actual signature on the bottom. In case you didnt now her mom passed away 3 years ago from cancer. This tattoo meant alot to melissa for that reason. Belive me when i say that it is an awsome piece of work. We got back late saturday night so that day was pretty much shot. Sunday we started off by getting her new tattoo all nice and cleaned up so that it looks better. Next off we went to houson pizza for brunch. this was chelsey melissa and myself. After that we pretty much just hung out went for some walks to get rid of the extra pounds that we have put on. Watched tele and talked.One other thing is that we went and seen my dads grave. My dad as well passed away from cancer but that was in 1999. Thats one thing that Melissa and i have in common. We both have lost a parent to cancer And we now what its like to lose a parent and the pain it causes when you lose someone. Both her and i have tattoos that are meant to remember our parents mine is my semi and hers the angel.Well its now almost midnight so i should call it a day since i have to be at work in 6 hours. So there you go folks this is how my weekend went. On that note its bed time so take care and we will  update you all very soon bye for now

I now that it has been awhile since i updated so i thought that today was as good of day as any to do that. Since my last post i have two tattoos now. The second one i got was on april 28th in regina by  a place called rising sun. I will say that the guy that did it did a great job and that i so love it. Its a tattoo of a tazz devil with flames through it.. It took almost 3 hours or close to 360000 needles to put it on my arm. Work, well it hasnt been all that great lately. Not much for staff and stuff isnt getting done like it should be.. But hopefully with the hiring of two new drivers that will all change.One more thing i was on crutches for two weeks as well. I tripped when loading stuff in the back of my company truck and ripped the legiments out on my left ankel for the third time in 20 years. Melissa chelsey and i went and saw spiderman 3 last night. One thing to say about it-  Awsome.They did a  great job making this show and i now i loved it alot. Which brings me to this weekend  now.. SO far the three of us have went for breakfast so far and now we are just sitting a round sort of playing with the puppy that they got and seeing what  good fun stuff that we can do to enjoy the lovely summer time day. Well folks i have now updated on the things that have been going on with me. So chow for now and i will try to post more often so u allcan see the life and times of me. Bye

Well folks we made the trip to calgary. We left estevan at 3 am on wednesday morning to get ahead start on the trip.Which was nice cause it gave us some time to visit with everyone when we got here. The weather well thats another thing. It started raining some at swift current  but that didnt last long.Then when we got past medicine hat  it started to rain really good. It really hasnt quit snowing or raining since we got here which isnt good cause we cant go out and enjoy the out doors this way. But its nice to be away and relaxing. Today i am going to get a tattoo done. I have one  appointment in regina on the 28th for one but i figured since i was here i would see if i could get in for one. The second shop we stopped at said come back today at one and get one done. SO i had to do some fast searching to find what i wanted.I found the one i wanted so now i just have to go get it done.We went out and checked out somehouses which are really nice, Lots of money to.Saturday now we are all going to the wedding in which we came here for. Melissas brother had a new born baby and i even got to hold it. thats pretty  cool feeling I am usually  really nervous when it comes to holding babies but i wasnt this time. Hes a really good baby.You hardly ever hear a sound out of him. BUt anywys folks  i said i would write and let you all now how things are going. Now you all know so i will keep all of you updated on things.With that chow for now take care and see you all
