Well, we're on our way back from the big city. We dropped off our load of hay to we were bringing to the New Ulm area yesterday. What happened since then... hmm well right after we left the drop spot Dad was having trouble with the truck, the brights were not working and the blinker wouldn't work correctly either. He decided that the problem with the brights was that the headlights weren't on so I got online to find a Freightliner repair shop for the blinkers.
They acted like a kid pretending to be sick to miss school and strangly started to feel better once they heard we may have to find a doctor to fix them. We got through the trafic in Minneapolis and to the place in Mounds View I was supposed to be staying at for the next year and started packing. My sister and her friend also volenteerd some time and effort to help me carry and pack. These are also the same two who got my car outta the truck stop long term parking, before it got towed to the impound lot's long term parking. THANK YOU SO MUCH KACE. You were a huge help! I hope I get a chance to help her some day :)
We were leaving my place and on the radio happened to be home by chris daughtry. It was a pretty emotional feeling hearing that song and just assessing everything that was going on in my life... I spilled a couple, but it was brief and I got a txt from a friend that's timing was just perfect (Thanks ;))
We wen't out to Buffelo Wild Wings for dinner that night, played the trivia game and dad and I got our pictures taken with the BW's crowns, I grabbed a princess one, but didn't notice until my sister pointed it out.
This morning the plan was to get set up with a new broker and take a load of cement walls and the stuff from my place through SD to Dakota Dunes, but this morning I missed a couple phone calls from our broker because my phone was on vibrate and I didn't know she was going to be getting ahold of us. But I guess we were too late getting to a fax machine and lost the load. UGH, I felt terrible. I'll have to leave my phone off vibrate at night.
We found a couple of partial loads to combine to get us back home. We finished loading the first partial and got a call from the second one. Long story short (because I don't really know what all was said over the phone) but something about... It's Friday, they're going home early, sorry for messing up your plans. So now we're almost to Worthington with my stuff and a partial load of these huge drilling tools.
I have some pictures I'll post after a bit when I can get them off my phone.

Glad to year of your comings and goings. I'm sure you are happy to be free of the "Big City" for now.
Grandp's is doing okay, but soar. Glad that is over. Don't think I know of the song you spoke of. How is your Dad's finger? Did the lights get fixed on the truck? Gram
