A Trucker's Wife of 43 yrs - Making the best of it

I've been a truckers wife for the better part of 43 years, There have been ups and downs, good times and bad, Lots of kids both our own and ones no one else wanted but me.

I always figured I had the best of both worlds. A husband half the week and all on my own the rest of the week. He was a car hauler. Him being home all the time is harder to deal with than him being gone a lot. I wouldn't want it any other way.

I've toured the country with his eyes and stories. I relax and enjoy them.
