Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

When??? Did I miss it??? Again??? UGH!!!

 

We are done in Reno. Waiting for the next beep from the QC.

 

AWESOME!!!

 

Ya, kind of struggling in that home time issue too. Was supposed to be home today but im being flexible.

Wasn't implying that I prefer being OTR to being home... But it is very peaceful and relaxing at times too.

Trucking, both OTR and local, takes a toll on family life for sure... Gone for days/weeks at a time or home daily but just enough to eat, sleep, repeat.

But those are the current options until they change... Do the best we can.

 

I think that's one advantage I have. I'm not married. Don't have a girlfriend, and don't really want one. And my kids live with their mom.

As long as I can see my kids every few weeks, and as long as I have something to keep my occupied during downtime (e.g. books, internet), I don't mind being away from home and don't really have anything that would require me to be there.

 

Have had the same thoughts myself.

 

I wore a rubber suit.

 

Very cool!

 

Strange I know. We still need to perfect it though. We keep getting there early. Go figure.

 

And, in your situation, you can take your "home time" anywhere... Want to go to Florida and hang out for 3-4 days... Ask for a load south... Make the drop... Park the truck... Call a cab!!!
