Things work out in my favor (Patreon)

This week was going to be short. There was no avoiding it. With the pickup on Thursday of last week going 3600km for a deliver the Friday of this week. I was going to end up sitting. My initial plan was to take it easy and get in Calgary Wednesday morning and sit until Friday. It wouldn’t have been great, but it would have worked.

What ended up happening, was that on Monday and Wednesday I was caught in wind storms strong enough I had to remained parked where I’d spent the night. It also meant that Thursday I had to drive nine and a half hours to reach Calgary, instead of 8 to where the initial plan had me park.

So, why this worked in my favor is that because I was forced to stay parked due to weather conditions, I can claim that wait time. which means I got paid to remain parked, instead of doing it for free.

On the side of my French press from last week. on a purely technical side, I did drive on Monday. A secondary road went from the truckstop to a Walmart, so I took it bout a press and came back. so I recaffeinated myself. Someone mentioned that since I travel, I should buy a stainless steel one. I couldn’t find one at the Walmart, but I’ll keep looking

All that sitting means more writing. That’s four chapters of Changing World that will be trickling your way.

Other than that, I had a relaxing weekend at my friend’s place in Calgary.

And that’s it for now, so I’ll see you on the next one.
