 that when they do give us something, we're ready to go. Appointments throughout the day. So yesterday with our fertility appointments and whatnot, I didn't film much throughout the day like I was just telling you, but I did film a few clips while we were there explaining sort of where we're at on that journey. I'll just insert them here if you guys are curious and then we'll continue on with today's video here. Just hooked up to our load. So I'll see you in just a minute. Heartland Fertility Clinic is up there. It's another fertility day. Crossing our fingers again. This is our last attempt at IUI. The next step will be IVF. You can always go to Google if you want to better understand what those procedures are. IVF is a lot more of a, it's a lot bigger of a procedure. All right. These IUI appointments are about $625 for each one. The IVF is $15,000. It's not cheap. So we are on a journey to become parents and start a family. We've been having a little difficulty along the way and the doctors can't quite figure it out, but we're gonna keep trying. I'm gonna keep trying until that day when we're holding a nice healthy baby in our arms. So appointments all day today. I did my appointment this morning, Britt's got her appointment this afternoon and then I've got another appointment later on today as well. We'll be in the city all day. No truck in today. We'll get back to the truck tomorrow. We've got important things to take care of today. There she is, the woman of the hour. In a lot of pain today. She's on new prescriptions for this round of IUI. I told him this is our final shot at IUI. I'm gonna get one shot. One shot. It's real slim shady. Set it. And then after this, we move on to IVF and that'll probably be in a year or so. Automula. So we're in the city all day for appointments today and hopefully this month is the month. Yeah, I got diagnosed with something called adenomyosis. So it explains all the pain that I'm in all the time. It's similar to endometriosis, not quite as severe. Can't be corrected with surgery aside from hysterectomy. So I just got a grin and bear it. But that explains a lot of the pain, a lot of the fatigue and some of the infertility anyway. Yeah, we've got some answers anyways. I was gonna let you explain that if you felt comfortable. So what's it called again? Adenomyosis. Adenomyosis. Similar to endometriosis. It's just like the opposite thing of endometriosis. I'll let Google answer that for you guys if you're more interested in figuring out what that is. Yeah, I won't explain it for you trucker men because you won't care and you'll be grossed out. But for those who like medical stuff, like me, I'm a medical buff, then. Here you go. It causes a lot of pain in you, right? A lot of pain. So she's in a lot of pain all the time. And there's risk of low iron and anemia with this. I just gotta be careful. Other than that, it doesn't really affect your life except for a little bit of fertility. And so, just a little bit. That's not a big thing with fertility though, right? No, you can still get pregnant. It's just that your risk of miscarriage increases a lot. So even well into the second trimester, closer to the third. So I just gotta, if I hopefully ever get pregnant, I just gotta treat myself like a delicate flower. No lifting anything. Nothing. No doing anything stressful. No stress, no tickling me. Okay, I can do that. I can do that. No horror movies, nothing that can startle me. Just gotta be very delicate. You gotta be very careful when you get pregnant. I'm gonna live like a snowflake. So that's where we're at. That's what happened yesterday. There was a whole day worth of appointments. Well, there's three appointments that took the whole day. And after that, we sort of just went home and relaxed, Britt put her feet up. And that's the way it should stay now. She's gotta relax and stay stress-free. And hopefully it takes, we'll cross our fingers. And if it doesn't, like we said, we'll be moving on to the next stage and that will be in a while. So who knows, it could happen naturally between now and then if it doesn't take this month, we'll never lose hope. But today anyway, I just hooked up to a new load behind me here. And it's kind of a special one. Wanna know why? I just hooked on having to put the airlines on yet. And look at this. They tie it down for us here. Now, isn't that a nice little treat? So all I gotta do is walk around here and make sure that it's secured properly and to my standards, which it always is, they always do a great job here. Look how many straps they used. Absolutely every little layer and every little thing is tied down. All I gotta do pretty much is hook on, roll up the gear, hook up the hoses and boogie on down the road. I don't know how long it would take if I had to strap this myself. Look at that. This would have taken an hour, depending on how things went, maybe more. Look at this thing here. They got like these steel fling of my jiggers in here all trained out and in. Box is right on the back, everything. So it makes my day very easy. So let's roll up the gear and get moving. We're gonna go down the trailer here, make sure every single strap and chain is tight. And if it's not like this, this is too loose for me. Give it an extra click, maybe two. Feel it again. Okay, yeah, much better. All the way down here, all these straps. And then when we're done, what happens is they give us this red toolbox. And what happens is when you deliver this, you take all of their equipment, chains, binders, straps, ratchets, everything, you take it and you put it in this red toolbox and then you bring that red toolbox back. And then it makes it back here and they tie down another load for us. That's the process that they, not everybody does that. Almost, actually nobody else does that. I've actually never heard of anybody else doing that. But I really like it that they do. I like their system that they got here. Saves me a lot of time and energy. Okay, let's pull this back to the yard. This load is going to North Carolina. More specifically, it's going to Fairmont, North Carolina. Highway driver waiting for it. When do they want it there? It's my favorite, they don't give me a delivery date, but it's Friday today, Friday the 16th today. I'm assuming Fairmont, they're probably going to want it there next Thursday, maybe Wednesday, Wednesday the 13th. I don't know, I don't know that part of it. All I know is that day it's going that way. And I'm just taking it back to our yard. Let's make sure it's not going to fall off on us here. I will take you to who is going to take you to North Carolina, does that make sense? I will take you to who's going to take you. Close the tension to it while it's behind me. Make sure nothing shifts. Make sure everything stays in place as it should. And just like that, it's empty. Nah, I'm just kidding. This is a total different trailer. Brought the other one back to the yard, parked it on the other side of those trailers over there. Hooked up to this empty step back. Check the air here, because it doesn't look like these bags are inflated yet. I'll give them a little bit. Okay, so they are inflating. Okay, just got to give them a minute. I always got to make sure that you got air in the trailer where I picked up from. That shipper always drops the air in the bags of every trailer before they drop it. And the guy there, the stunt driver came by and he just made sure that I was putting air in the trailer because he was telling me stories about drivers who show up there and just hook on and go without checking the airbags. And he said one of their other drivers caught another driver. There was an outside carrier, I don't know who it was, but caught one of them. It wasn't us. In Saskatoon, nine hours down the road. And the guy was asking, like, why is my trailer riding so rough? Why is it so bumpy? And he said, well, did you put air into the trailer bags? And the guy was like a deer in headlights. Huh? He had no idea. No one had ever told them to check the trailer bags. He just thought they all automatically filled up. So that's why I tell you guys often, make sure there's air in the trailer. That could cause some real, real damage. And believe me, when you bring the trailer in for repairs, the shop is really not gonna be happy with you if you drag a trailer nine hours without any air in the suspension. That's riding with literally no suspension for 900 kilometers, almost like 600 miles, almost 500 miles. I don't know what happened there. That's where his story ended. We had a good chuckle and shook our heads over it. Man. I was always told over and over again when I was being trained, make sure there's air in the suspension. Make sure there's air in the suspension. And even just moving a trailer in the yard, you can tell if there's air as soon as you move forward just a little bit. You can tell if there's air in the trailer or not, just by the way it moves. But I guess, you know, that comes with experience too. So, that is just a really tough experience to take and to learn. I can guarantee you, there was some really unhappy people he had to deal with after that. But that's a really extreme circumstance and that wasn't us. That wasn't any of our drivers. Believe me, our drivers, I don't faith that that wouldn't happen though. I mean, accidents happen. You don't wanna say everything's gonna go perfect all the time. Accidents happen. Unfortunate circumstances arise, but, dude, nine hours. That's past the limit of like, oops, it was an accident. That was, I'm glad that wasn't us. John, let's pull this empty step deck around and I don't even know what they want me to pick up. They just told me, go find a step deck, pick your favorite one. That was the first one I found. How about that? It's got tires, air in the bags, and those two van trailers there. I wish I would have filmed back into that spot because it was smooth. Got it in there, first shot without pulling forward, without even stopping, it was just one fluid motion. Yard Bill saw me, he'd back me up on that. That was one of my better moments. Getting loaded. They didn't tell me it was gonna be a wide load, but a good thing I always carry my equipment that I need for it. Looks to be probably what, 10 feet wide. It's my guess. I'll have to measure that out, you need to check the paperwork. They're just going down the road pretty much into Winnipeg. Probably about a 15 minute drive. So we're gonna tag it and fly it, tie it down, button it up. Just to go around the corner pretty much. This still take me the shortest trip I've ever had. Cars just flying through a construction zone. While we're unloading on the other side of my truck there, do you see that? Doesn't matter what you do, you can block off the road. They'll just drive around the pile on, they'll drive around the barricade or whatever they have to do to get past you because you know, they're late for something. They're always in a hurry to get somewhere. Nicely eliminating all of this evil, evil white stuff. Any other time of the year, like in winter time, it's not evil, it's just, then it's just snow. But after my birthday, after April 1st, I don't wanna see any of that anymore. So that's it for the week. They got nothing more for us to do today. I'm just gonna clean everything up, park the truck, wipe it all down, get it ready for Monday so I can come in to a clean truck and get all my stuff in the pickup and head home. I think I'm gonna pull out the pressure washer tonight since the sun is out again. My pickup is taking up beating this week. She's dirty again, that's unacceptable, unacceptable. Cannot have a dirty pickup.
