No Freight? I'm assuming your dh is in the trucking business? I know how you feel, things have been super slow for my dh too. He drives truck and his boss is having a hard time finding loads for him to haul.
Just keep doing what you are doing and know that things can only go up from here. I'm not overly religious but my beloved Grandma Arlene was-before she passed away she had given me a index card that she wrote a bible verse on, i have since framed it and keep it on my desk. It reads:
"I know the plans i have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Hang in there!

Yuppers my hubby is in the trucking business. Has been with the company for over 10 yrs. Yesterday, he did a bunch of locals with hopes it covers the insurance at least and as of today, he is sitting on the yard. Each day he sits...the more I worry. I have cut a bunch of expenses, but not quite enough for this....

It's tough, I know. The winter months can drag on and often the weather is a huge factor in how I feel. But I learned awhile ago that living a happy life is a choice. People will rain on your parade but it's how you process that information and what you do about it, that will dictate how happy you will be.

I also find that if I don't exercise regularly that too affects me. Endorphins are a WONDERFUL thing! (and addicting). I often tell people that my gym membership is my therapy expense.

Even if you can exercise 30 minutes a day, three times a week, I think you will definitely notice a change in your mood. Try it out....and when I say that, I mean an honest effort, for at least a month. Journal your daily thoughts and then after a month go back and read them. You won't see the changes day-to-day but you will see a slight change in thought when you go back and read all your entries one at a time.

Good luck

I might invest in a punching bag and hang it in the basement. Wish they offered Kick Boxing classes around here!
