Not sure if this would interest her but I bought a bottle cutting kit and am making unique vases and glass sets that I will sell on ebay or craigslist. I have the benefit of having kids that can handle the craigslist stuff while I am on the road. Ebay is just a matter of stopping by the post office. I have several people in my neighborhood saving bottles for me.
josepholson Thanks this. -
Can I possibly get said woman's whole routine as a seat warmer, please? I'm waiting to go OTR with my husband and I'm curious to hear. Thanks! -
Make things such as wierd one of a kind keychains, knitting caps, esty kind of stuff.
-
teach her to dispatch and have her dispatch for somebody
-
-
Maybe detailing or cleaning while at the truckstop.
-
can she bake? sell homemade cookies, packaged in snack bags, 3 for $1. have a banner made to put across the front of the tractor for when you're stopped. start simple with just 3 kinds of cookies, chocolate chip, peanut butter, and maybe oatmeal.

argue about:
what load to accept
price of load
what route to take
where to refuel
how long refueling took
which lane to be in
if we've been on this road before
which radio station should be on and for how long
the in cab temp setting
where to stop to eat for our 30 minutes
why our 30 minute turned into an hour and 30 minutes
whether the occasional break from talking is acceptable
how long to drive today
if that four wheeler gave her a dirty look
who has sacrificed more for this wonderful opportunity
where to stop for night
which spot to park in
what to eat for dinner
how to spend the remaining hours of off duty time
In addition to the trucking related tasks above, the routine would rounded out with personal discussions, such as me attempting to justify being born with brown eyes, or how the Ebola outbreak is my fault.
Successful spousal team drivers or seat warmers are very impressive to me. I hope you and your husband have one of these types of marriages, and I wish you the best. For me though, it's enjoyable to imagine all the conversations I'll never have to have.Old - School, sherlock510, OPUS 7 and 2 others Thank this. -
My better 3qrtrs (im not worthy of a half)
has never ridden with me.I guess she rode with me enough in the car
the last 23 years.
I do know we would never make any money.We would be stopping every
20 miles so she could go to the potty.
already gone Thanks this.
