Day 154 – The Day Spent In the Trailer

No, not a trailer like a trailer park :) the cutin trailer.  Today was nothing but paperwork and Chimichangas – and Reeses mini cups :) ha ha ha ha

We worked so hard yesterday and today getting these locations ready to be put into service on Monday, it makes me very happy.  I think it will go so smooth :)

I was out like a light yesterday, read I think a page of the book.  I woke up in a panic at midnight though thinking it was morning 😉  Guess you know it was good sleep.  I am very snotty today and am very happy I am not flying home.  That would be miserable, but I am not certain a 5 hour drive will be much better.

I think we are going to wrap up here pretty soon and then I am going to crash again and see if I can feel a bit better for tomorrow.

Instead, I am driving home tonight -BYE!!!!!

The Doghouse - can you guess why?

Day 153 – The Day I Worked Like a Railroader!

Oh my goodness today was a long day working on the railroad.  We were supposed to spend a day in the cutover trailer doing paperwork and ended up needing to visit 6 locations to gather information before we could do the paperwork.  Now we are sitting in the trailer and we just finished building that!!!!!!

I am pooped – it is hot outside, I got rained on, and walking on the ballast (the rocks) is HARD with little feet!!

I am back at the hotel now.  I went and got some food, nothing special, but more importantly I went to CVS and got some cough medicine.  I am about to clean up and take lots of drugs that will make me sleepy (I hope).

Got a couple good pics today so here they are and have a great night!!

Day 152 – The Day I Drove FOREVER!!

Today I have 2 meetings, one at 08:00 and the other at 14:00 and then I leave to drive to Fairburn, Georgia – basically Atlanta.  I am not really looking forward to it…

The first meeting went well and now I need to pack and put the rest of my laundry away.  I think that Nickel knows I am going somewhere because my suitcase is out.  He is hanging a little close by this morning :)

Alright, second meeting also went well, thought no one was going to join for a little bit but then like 40 people joined so that is good turnout.  I am about to walk out the door, gotta say goodbye to the folks and the puppies :(

And 5 hours later I am in the hotel.  Goodness!!  Ran into just a little bit of rain but no real traffic so really it was smooth sailing, driving rather :)  The lady gave me a room like with no other room around, which turns out to be pretty good because I am coughing like crazy.  I hope I am not getting what mom had, but this stinks.  I ate lunch really late on the drive so I am just gonna take these meds and get to bed!

I did not take a single picture today – what a bummer :(

Night all :)
