Alright this is going to be a lot different than any of the post I normaly post here, reason being I got myself an ipad mini and an Apple Pencil recently that allows me to get on here and just write. It鈥檚 a lot different than banging away at a keyboard for sure. I like the feed of just writting naturally and can see how this can be a lot more enjoyable freewritting experience than creating freewrite posts with mouse and keyboard.
I ended up getting the ipad because of the new job. I've been working as an over the road truck driver the past couple months and it's hard to use my big laptop on the truck the same way I do at home. I'm still gonna do my movie reviews and right reactions as much as I can, but having an ipad to write on gives me a cool way to switch things up from the post templates I have on peakd.
With all that being said, I do have a blutooth mouse and keyboard that I鈥檇 like to use to do some posts from my peakd templates, but I still have some things to figgure out main thing being how to get image addresses on ipad to add the images I want to my posts. Little bit of a learning curve in some areas, but I don't think those learning curves will turn out to be limitations.
As for the job, it comes with it's share of bullshit to deal with but i kinda like it. I get to see a lot of beautiful places out on the road and driving can be kind of relaxing at times. I have so much time to listen to podcasts while driving I doubt i'll ever get behind on my shows. I also have a library card that allows me to check out ebooks and audiobooks through the libby app.
The hardest part about the job is being away from home long periods of time though. I do team driving as well so i've had to learn how to sleep in a moving truck while bumping and turning down the road. I'm not able to move around as much which is why my actifit posts have fell off but I get some pushups and squats in while hooking trailers up as much as I can. I'm limited on food options but I have to watch what eat as well so i'm not blowing up on the road. Ican be pretty easy to let yourself go and get unhealthy out here.
But i've got my goals set for working over the road. I'm using this to set me up for a better future finacially and give me more breathing room to do things I like. I'm gonna have to move quick, get in and get out before the self driving trucks and ai takeover but I think i've got time to do what needs to be done.
