Last night it wasn't bad at the rest area. It did rain which helped to cool off a bit. Then sometime after the rain stopped and after I fell asleep, I woke to cars on both sides of me. I am thankful they were quiet. I woke at 5:18am. I laid back a few minutes and then motivated myself out of the... Sign in to see full entry.

I need to publish a list of ten things doordashers hate. For example, if ordering at night it is easier and safer to find your house and quickly deliver your food if you turn on your porchlight. Don't ask to hand to you if you don't want to answer the door. Don't place order unless you are going to... Sign in to see full entry.

Early this morning around 3am the car next to me on the right alarm went off. It happens but usually people turn it off in seconds. Not this one. I don't know if she was in the restroom or what. It took a while for her to turn it off. So much for going back to sleep right away. Someone was already... Sign in to see full entry.

I just love the quiet nights at the rest area. It's still crowded! I see the same families and I wonder what happened to them that they are here? I don't want to intrude and make them uncomfortable. My knee has some bruises just now showing up. WTF! I guess now that the swelling keeps going down... Sign in to see full entry.

I woke with my knee still tender but actually able to put some pressure on it. Just not the full weight. At least not as of yet. I decided to go ahead and do my chair yoga. It's mainly sitting so no worries about hurting the knee. It felt so good to do it again. Amazing how just missing a day or two... Sign in to see full entry.

I was surprised last night. I was actually able to login for pay by the hour. I made more money. It's nice to see earnings more than fifty for a shift other than the weekend. I took a total of 1200 mg of Ibuprofen. That helped a lot. I can actually lie on my stomach now. There's less and less pain... Sign in to see full entry.

Saturday sleeping on my stomach was a definite no go. I had to sleep on my sides. Sunday I pulled the crutches out of storage. I am so happy that I kept them. One less expense. I cut my hours to a shorter time frame. No point in aggravating the knee so much that I wind up in the hospital and then... Sign in to see full entry.

Oh Pat, this is my journal. This way I don't lose it. These days that storage space is like a black hole. Today I only did the treadmill because not enough time to do more with it opening at 8am. I wish they opened earlier. I set up the pet food samples. I went through the first box. I broke it down... Sign in to see full entry.

It rained last night. I woke to a bit of dampness in the front seat. Thankfully I keep a towel on the seat. I love the quiet. I listen to hypnosis about food to fall asleep. It's working! I have a demo tomorrow. This one if for pet food samples. There are two heavy boxes of samples to give out. It... Sign in to see full entry.

I logged off early last night. It was one crappy order after another. I did my usual routine of going to the travel center to change clothes and chat with Mya. The rest area is less than two miles away. It was not very full when I arrived for a change. It was cooler last night. I am so grateful for... Sign in to see full entry.
