Something’s Got to Give

About trucking in a bad economy.

Okay so freight is down
People are saving their money
It’s getting tougher to pay
The bills and then Jan says
“Just hang in there, honey!”
Jeff and I just need a load
Something with some miles
We’re hoping for California
Now that would make us
Both smile!
If these wheels aren’t turning
We’re not making any money
We’ve been sitting in Nashville
For three days now…
Let me tell you people
This sitting around is no
Longer funny…
My last paycheck was
Four weeks ago
I’m running out of hope
But there’s just not a thing
I can do except sit in this
Truck and mope…
Something’s just got to give
But what I don’t have a clue
I’m at the end of my rope
I don’t know what to do…
Someone recently told me
To tie a knot in it and hang on
Things will get better for all of us
I just hope that help comes soon…

I can only say I keep you in my thoughts and prayers . We both know there are thousands of people out there in the same boat. It isn’t easy but you can never give up hope. As long as there is another day , There is another hope that things will get better. Love you

Nick,
Mary and I have you in our thoughts and prayers. That road you’re going down, I’m right behind you. But with each new day comes a new hope that something will come our way. Keep the faith bro! and don’t allow it to get you down. If it wasn’t for Mary pushing me on, I don’t know what I would do. I have her on one side and the lord on the other. So I’m not alone, and I will press on.
Great poem! Tell Jan Hi for us! Love you guys!

Thanks so much everyone…it’s scary out there. I just thank God our house and vehicles are paid for. Jan and I are losing weight but we’re not complaining about that! God’s blessings to you all and our love.
