Yep, work. Well, I am at work, but I have absolutely nothing to do really. I have to rearrange some things to fit some boxes, but that's all I have to do for the 9 hours that I will be here. I am just here in case somebody calls, which very likely will not happen. My boss, nor the owner, will be here today.

We got it back a while ago with "nothing wrong" and were up in MA near exit 15 and stopped to grab some drinks, hit a pothole in the road now the right rear wheel makes this strange noise again, different than the first time. My dads driving and he doesn't know what it is but were going to see if we can hear it again when we get off 91.

And when all the other wheels are clean and shiny the right rear wheel is golden brown and smudges and dull. When I was drivivng down the hill on my street it definitely felt like the brake was sticking but my dad didn't think so. Who knows

I probably cut 3-5 cord of firewood today. Not entirely sure cause it's all still on the ground. Tomorrow I will return with a Peterbilt instead of a Ford in order to haul it all back. My truck only holds about a half cord so I'd be driving back and forth all day with my truck.
