I was growing curious as to whether or not I was losing any weight so I stopped at a truck stop and put a quarter into the scales that seemed to be common place at truck stops throughout the country.

I slept for approximately three hours this morning. I didn’t want to sleep too long because I have a lot of ground to cover in a short amount of time since money has quickly become an issue.
