Newlywed Trucker's Wife

My hubby only stays gone 7-10 days. Im previously married and divorced and was honestly good at being single. So I have the best of both worlds.

Miss him when he's gone, but cell phones are invaluable and he is right there whenever I need him. I used to sugar coat problems when he was on the road but then he just had to deal with reality when he got home.

So now, if something is wrong... I let it rip. He sends me pics of the country and himself blowing me kisses. And makes sure I know he misses me.

He brings me surprises home like jewelry from the Indian reservation or a wine from the west coast and I make sure the house looks good and supper is at least in the fridge when he's home.

He's great and the arrangement works for us. :)
