Good Monday morning! Back to work everybody!

Some of us work everyday of the year. Kinda like the mailman.....snow, rain, nothing can stop them. Well, not really. The radio has been talking about delivering mail only 5 days a week now.

We are at our delivery place. Got here about an hour early. Nice room to maneuver the truck into a dock! Always hate not knowing a place I have never been to before. Everybody is different in the way they check drivers in, unload you, etc. This place so far seems pretty decent.

Ah, the joys of having a Truck Kat! When we stop driving every night, that signals it is playtime for TK. She starts out on the dash looking around, and starts hollering for me to play flashlight games. Flashlight games is me shining the light on the back wall and she tries to "catch" it. She tries with all her might! I feel sorry for anybody or anything that would get in the way of her trying to catch that light (or reflections)! You'll get trampled for sure.

So, last night we are stopped and I am answering emails. Because of the tight parking I ended up going nose-to-nose with another truck. Out from the back somewhere comes this flying truck kat jumping over my head and landing square on the center of the steering wheel! Guess what? She of course honks the horn. We have two horns. One is the "city horn" a regular volume horn like cars have. But since she hit the middle, she honked the AIR horn. Ya know, the extra loud BigRig horn! Poor guy sitting in front of us trying to sleep. LOL

She has a habit of doing that at some of the most inopportune times! At another time, I will fill you in on some of those.

Ok, you better get back to work! :) Have a good day!

Good Morning Steve...

We play similar games with our pets. We have a laser pointer. The cats love it. All we have to do is push the button to turn it on and they come running. We also play with it for the dogs. It is especially fun at night when there is snow on the ground.

Wanted to tell you, you put the ad on the mainpage in the perfect spot. Good job.

Question, have you ever considered enabling the chat on the CamStreams website? It might be fun to chat with people when you have a free moment or two between stops.

You have a pretty day Steve.. Enjoy that sunshine...

It's good I'm retired. Last thing I check before going to bed is to see if you are safely stopped for the night, then right after breakfast read your morning message, check your location and the blogs. I need a big screen so I can watch your travels and get my work done, too.

TK stories are so funny. She is a frisky cat and full of mischief.
