Superdaddy's truck died this morning.
We only have one vehicle right now. Took my car in to get the gas tank leak fixed and somehow, the brake line got punctured. Sigh. More money out the window. Drove my car all weekend with a Brick for a break pedal. Took it back to same shop.
Meanwhile, Superdaddy went to leave for work today. His truck wouldn't start. Looks like the engine is dying in the semi. Looks like it needs a major "overhaul". He will not be working at all this week. On the heals of the whole child support thing and the holiday's coming up really fast...THIS SUCKS!!
If the wheels don't move, the pennies don't add up to any size paycheck. Owner Operator told him he wasn't gonna be driving anywhere this week so the engine could get worked on. Good news is this, he can leave to go up hunting on Thursday instead of midnight on Friday.
Gonna be a long week.

ah the joys of the trucking world. We have done the owner operator thing and the company driver thing and it always sucks butt when things like this happens.
And doesn't it always seem that you never get just one 'bad' thing, it's several?
