 Good morning, everybody. It's Thursday, if you were wondering when I am filming this. It may not be Thursday when you're watching this, but welcome. Anyways, let's all pretend it's Thursday together because for me, it's Thursday. How's everybody doing today? If you're new, welcome here. Everything you need to know about me is down below in the description of this video. We're on our way to work to do some trucking. Today I have to go and deliver that load into Winnipeg that I picked up in Ontario yesterday. I've got a nine o'clock appointment in St. Boniface. I've got plenty of time. Plenty of time. I should be there at 7 a.m. getting the truck ready, getting it started. And then it's only like a 20-minute drive. So all plenty of time will be a little early, which is better than a little late. So I've been trying to reduce the amount of sugar I'm taking into my body a little bit, okay? I'm a little bit of a sugarfine. I love sugar. So I don't want to have diabetes when I'm older. So I understand the risks of eating a lot of sugar, but I'm not going to cut it out completely, okay? My body's still working. So I used to eat eggos with maple syrup every morning. Tons of sugar. Probably had like 200 grams of sugar every morning at least. And when I realized this, I was like, maybe I should do something. So I've been having oatmeal, which is about 20 grams of sugar every morning. So 10% taking it down a little bit. Saving some of my sugar quota for the evenings, you know, so I can have some cake. We're back in 3006. Everything seems to be working all right. Air pressure gauges are working. I've already tested the air pressure and the air compressor. Bull hop valve, everything seems to be working all right. All other gauges are looking good. So hopefully it lasts. It's going to be a little bit of a cold day. The wind chill is what's going to get us today. It's really windy and that wind is coming from the north and it's bringing that polar vortex air right down over Manitoba. So it's only like minus 15 outside. It's not too bad, but that wind temperature is probably bringing it down closer to like minus 25. At least we got our truck back. So we got a van trailer. This is the trailer we had in Ontario yesterday. It's actually got a load of mattresses in here. Used mattresses that are I believe going to get steam cleaned and then being donated. That's the story I was told. So it's actually kind of a nice story. This is I think 85 mattresses in here that are being donated to people who need them. homeless people and people in low income situations. I got a big billboard behind me. This huge gap between the truck and the trailer. You notice it on the windy days, but it looks good, right? It looks better. We'll just go with that. This place has been under construction for so long. It's got this crosswalk here. You got to watch out because all the employees park on that side of the road on the left and they got to walk over the road to the right. And when they're all getting to and leaving work at the same time, it gets pretty busy. Watch your forks there, bud. Watch your forks. Why do you got them way up there? This is a meat packing plant beside us here on the right. They create quite the stink. I remember as a kid, it bothered me a lot more than it does now. Now I don't really but it doesn't really bother me, but whole that plant stinks when they're making certain meats I guess or packaging it. It stinks up the whole neighborhood, but this is St. Boniface Industrial Zone. I think it's the largest like dirty industrial zone in Winnipeg. This is where all the industry that gives off that unwanted smell they would be located in this area of this city. I think they call it dirty industry, right? I don't know if that's laugh. What do I know? We're almost there. 85 mattresses. There's gonna be 85 people that have a good mattress to sleep on now. I brought new ones out to Ontario and I took their old ones here. They're donating the old ones. I thought that was kind of nice. It's kind of a nice story to be a part of, right? That was a very short green light. Come on. Good to be back in 2006 again though. I missed this truck. I always wonder if people actually live in these places here. I don't think so. I think they've been converted into like businesses. There's a whole bunch of washer and dryers outside that one, but I think someone still lives in that little one over there. I'm not sure. Right in the middle of an industrial zone. Property tax must be cheap, I would hope. It'd be hard to sell that. I don't know what this structure is off to my left here. It's been there my whole life as far as I can remember. So I used to go to school in the neighborhood here and I drive past this all the time. It's always there. It's like they just took the walls off the building but left the frame there. I wonder what they're gonna do with it. Just gonna leave it. Wait for that guy because I'm a nice guy. I could have gone. I could have gone Mr. Minivan. I chose to let you go first. I'm gonna be slow. I don't like rushing in the semi. No point. Take my time. Give myself plenty of time to get to where I'm going and just get there when we get there, you know. Everyone can go around. I mean I'm not gonna drive ridiculously ridiculously slow. I'm just talking for when I'm in the city. I'd rather be more careful than not. I mean the people everywhere. There's kids running around everywhere. Cars everywhere. I gotta turn left here. Stay green. Stay. You pedestrian. You stay too. Stay. Old Saint Boniface. Go around the corner here. I've said it before. It's the French quarter of the city. And where is this place? Is this it here? I think this is it here. Yep. Gotta turn down. Nice being a part of a big donation like this. This is going to a senator here for less fortunate like I was telling you. I'm not sure who exactly but thinking it's going for the homeless and low-income families. So I know it's not my donation. It is people in Ontario. I brought them new matches. They wanted to donate their old matches. They were only a year old. They were still in great shape. They didn't really need to be replaced in my own opinion but they replaced them. And so the old matches that are still good are going to be cleaned here and then distributed to those who need them. And it feels kind of sort of heartwarming being a part of that even though it's it's not me specifically who's making the donation. I was a part of it. I brought it here and they seemed pretty excited to receive them. So there they got a whole crew here. They wanted to unload it all themselves. I asked if they wanted my help. They said no, they're good. They got a whole bunch of guys here. A bunch of volunteers. And they said I could just go sit in my truck. Probably going to go out there anyways and see if they need my help. I don't want to feel useless just sitting in here. I'm trying to get out of here. I had to go around on a little bit of a tight street. Now I'm trying to go back down there and going back to the yard. I'm not sure what's next on the agenda for today but that was fun. They actually got it unloaded there fast. Had a bunch of guys already and waiting. I called them yesterday to tell them when I'd be here so they were already warmed up and stretched because all the mattresses were just on the floor. I had to pull out one mattress at a time and I think there was 85 mattresses in there if we counted right. This is one of the busier roads. This is Archibald Street. One of the busier roads. I need the whole road to make my right turn. I've got to wait for traffic to clear in both directions. Okay here we go. Going to send it. This building's new. I've never seen this building here. Maybe they just redid it. I don't know what that is. I should have just kept going straight. Whatever I can go this way too. Now I just got to wait for this traffic. Not that long though. It's just a little bit just a few cars. Just a few cars. Just talking out loud. Thinking out loud. That's what I meant to say. Usually you do talk out loud. I mean whenever I talk it usually is out loud. What I meant to say is that I'm thinking out loud. There's that skills and structure again. What's this? The factory. I wonder what they do there. 300 or 600 technologies. I wonder what they do. I'll take some kind of sports shop. Make a tight right. Those trucks are not allowed to go straight. Except for all the industry that's down that road. You have to have trucks go down there to pick up freight. I've had to go down there before to pick up loads at those buildings down there. I don't know why it says no trucks allowed. All right bud. I'm going to let you go first. There you go. There you go. Just don't drag your trailer over me. Okay. Thank you. He knows what he's doing. He knows what he's doing. Rules in Manitoba are at stop signs. If you're at a four-way stop or a three-way like that, always stop. Whoever arrives at the stop sign first has the right of way. If you both arrive at the exact same time, whoever's to the right has the right of way. Can you even see me? The sun goes down so fast. It's hard to get a day's worth of a video in here for you. We got a few things done today. Getting colder again. It's minus 15 now, so it's not too cold, but two months ago I would have said it was freezing. Now it's like maybe it's okay. It's okay. I'd like it if it wouldn't get any colder, but we know it will. Cold weather is coming down from the north. It's going to hit us in the next week. We're going to go down to minus 25, minus 30s in the wind chill, and it's going to go down from there yet. January's going to be even colder if it's like every other January. Well, it's okay. It's what we do. We're going to keep trucking. Britt went to her mom's for the night, so it's just me and the boys. Well, she took the little guy. She took the Frank. We collectively, both their names are Frankie. You want a speed? Go ahead, buddy. That speeding ticket is all yours. All yours. Oh man, he's just booking it too. Oh, you're going to pass like four or five people at once. Oh boy, somebody's in a hurry to get home to the wife. I get it, bud, but he limits. What was I saying? Yeah, I'm going home to the boys. I got Diesel and Chevy at home with me. The little guys went with Britt, and we're going to have a guys night. Better not party too hard because I got to work in the morning. It's like giant tables. Well, boys, Chevy's excited. Oh my Chevy. I thought we were past this. I didn't film the rock star welcome already. I thought you'd calm down. Guys are that excited for guys night, eh? Guys night. Chevy, there's no mom at guys night. Guys that she's not a guy. I'm looking over it. Chevy, she's not gonna, she's not here. Where'd she go? Where'd you, where'd you put her? She went to Grandma's house, didn't she? Went to Grandma's house. She told me. You see, I'm a smart weasel. I know these things. Right there, I say I'm a good boy. You're a good boy, Jesus. Yes, yes I am. Just us today. Me, you, and Chevy. What are we going to do? I didn't know we could fish out the disco ball, man. I mean, let's see mom, I still can't find her. Chevy, Chevy, Chevy, sit. It's just us. Mom's not coming back till tomorrow. She's not coming back? Till tomorrow. She's coming back tomorrow. Oh, I don't know. I don't know. There's no rules, man. We can make our own rules. Oh boy. Oh boy. Can we make snow angels? What can we take? I like to take two. I like to take two. Anyways, it's not like we have a lot of time. It's already quarter to seven and my bedtime is eight o'clock. So we have a whole hour and 15 minutes to shower, make supper, do the dishes, get ready for tomorrow, and go to bed. I don't even know if it's enough time for that.
