11. I'm on your side Tobin S. I was married to an over the road trucker

He was with Kaw Transport out of Kansas City hauling liquid and fuel...and he passed away in 2007. I LET ALL TRUCKS in when I can help, I turn my lights on to alert them to change lanes if they wish....I SO RESPECT THEM.

He would come home from a week or 2 trip and sit in a bathtub with a Miller Lite Beer (4 or 5) and his eyes LOOKED LIKE ROADMAPS. Truly....they were red streaks in his eyes...

I did everything I could in my life to make his homelife WONDERFUL.

Its hurts my feelings, cuz sometimes truckers don't respect us "4 wheelers" but I don't care...
He made alot of money and had a wonderful sense of humor...but it wore and tore on his poor body....physically and the food you eat on the road.

Bless your heart....and I hope you find something you are happy with soon!!!! You are moving the country!!!
