    Get home just before the wife.
    She get's home...looks at the stuff still sitting there..."I thought you were going to the yard today?"
    I have to laugh at that one , First my neighbors gave up . wife same . another reality is you leave with a load
    and come back with same amount to - work on - it never really ends .



    A classic statement came out of a fellow workers mouth to me " when will you unload this poor old truck " My answer came out in a hushed tone
    with a touch of smugness - I said " it seems that way doesn't it " my boss also scraps and looked at me and smiled as to agree ,
    to the untrained it all looks the same. (that week I went to the yard with a new load each day )

    You know I need thank God more importantly -- thank you for scrap being there in the first place and protect all us honest scrappers from the thieves that have a short term view
