    It's common. I know on new company orientation I'm always nervous until after the physical and road test. Once those two are completed my stress level drops and I'm a lot more relaxed.

    Good luck. You'll do great and feel free to bump your wife over to the forums if she needs to vent. A few of us have been in her position...

    Just remember you know what to do and how to do it. just do your best and the rest will work out just fine. and I know this sounds corny but I have been married 33 years always tell her you love her before you leave! never let her forget it

    Aww that's sweet! I can see why you've been married so many years.


    GREEN: Good luck with that. Beginnings are always hard. Talk often. ~Rebels Angel~
