I "knew" you'd be back in Nebraska:

From And We're Off!, page 2

If Kansas hated you, you would have been sent to Nebraska to wait for your trainer.

I feel bad for the guy. He hasn't even been driving a year. And while I was super mad to see half my truck lying on the ground, I remembered that I was in a very similar situation not too long ago. I remembered how horrible it felt to have someone yelling at me and going off at me. So as mad as I was, I treated the guy with professionalism and respect, just how I would want to be treated

You did the right thing... it's never best to flip out... good for you Chickie.

It's the exact truck stop where I had my emotional breakdown while with my trainer. Geez, I think I just need a nice long vacation! Oh wait...

Oh wow, CM, that sucks! Glad it wasn't a hit and run.

If you haven't left by cab already, we'll be there tomorrow sometime. We would LOVE to meet you!!

We can't leave until KW tows the truck on Tuesday so we will still be here!

We would definitely love to sit down and have breakfast or lunch or dinner with you guys.

Do you have an ETA?

Teddy got hit. Bad.

I'm at the Flying J in North Platte after delivering in Wyoming and picking up in Colorado.

We had been in bed about an hour when I felt the truck rocking. Hard.

Jumped out in a hurry to see my bumper lying on the ground...

I'm parked at the end of the row and somebody went around me and didn't swing wide enough.

The whole driver side bumper is ripped off and wedged under my tire. The headlight is hanging on the ground. He's not driveable.

The best part? Kenworth is closed for the holiday weekend and I can't get a tow until Tuesday. My husband MUST be home on the first for a doctors appointment so it looks like we will be renting a car to get back to Missouri and back here.

I'm starting to think I'm cursed...

Girl I need ur number or email! I wanna ask about the student program at TransAm! :-D I'm still undecided who to go with haha!

I'd try to get down time from his insurance. .. makes sense that you could get it.
